My Top 10 Favorite Spots to Eat in NYC!

1. Grand Banks

Grand Banks is a beautiful restaurant on the water right along the Hudson. For me, it makes for a better drinks spot considering I do not eat oysters! So if you are veggie like me, it's tough to find options but it is a perfect happy hour and the atmosphere makes up for it!

2. ABC Cocina

ABC Cocina ~ Jean Georges restaurant ~ is the perfect date spot! Dark inside, lots of apps, and delicious chips n guac!

3. Pinto Garden

If you like thai food, add it to the list! This hidden gem in the west village has so many great options (especially for my fellow vegetarians) and the back has a cute garden area with seating!

4. Kyma

You saw it coming - whether it's a thursday night or a saturday night, Kyma is always packed and has great music. Fresh greek food with all of your favorite dips, and if you go on the weekend, be sure to sit in the basement - that's where all of the dancing and music is at!

5. Aunt Jakes

Adorable indoors and delicious food! Great quality Italian and even offers butternut squash noodles!

6. Ruby's

A hungover bowl of sweet potato fries just hits different from Ruby's!

7. Brooklyn Bagel & Murray's Bagels

It's a constant toss up between which one I like more - but you can't go wrong with either! My order - cinnamon raisin extra toasted scooped out with tofu cream cheese!

8. Roey's

The pizza is light and delicious and so is the salad! Right in the heart of the west village with many surrounding bars to hit afterwards.

9. Van Leeuwen Ice Cream

You knew this list wouldn't be complete without LP's favorite treats! Van's Brooklyn Brown Sugar is to die for! Peanut Butter Brownie Honey Comb is also one of their best vegan flavors - so run, don't walk!

10. Vezzo

Thin crust pizza. That is all.
