NYC restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of 161st Street - Yankee Stadium Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

It's one of the best Hard Rock Cafes I've been to! The manager goes out of his way to help you and take care of you and make sure that you're happy with the food the service. Staff is wonderful! You couldn't ask for a better group of people that wait on you or bartend or just bar backing. All really engaging, thoughtful people!

Food was ok, but they restricted everyone to a 70 min dining period. Since we did their bottomless option, it was pretty short considering they took time to bring out the drinks. Overall good option if you want to eat/drink real food before the game.

Hard Rock Cafe is one of the best places to eat and drink. They have good service, the food is delicious, and they offer a special drink. If you pay an extra 5 dollars, you get a few souvenir cups when you finish your dinner. I fully recommend it. I don't give 5 stars because the food is very expensive.

The employees and the service is great. I’m a fan of the brand Hard Rock Cafe and this one is very special with that Yankee flavour and memorabilia all around. Absolutely necessary to pay a visit if you are in the area.

We’ve been to Hard Rock Cafe’s all over the world and this location might be one of our worst experiences. Even being empty on a non-game day service was pretty much non-existent. The seaters and servers seemed like they didn’t want to be there and everything just took forever. Food wasn’t great - it’s got the Hard Rock menu standards but it felt almost like a knock off restaurant was cooking them. Even something simple like the chicken on my salad was overcooked to the point of being almost hard. Drink refills were non-existent and the restrooms were messy even though no one was there. The uniqueness of the location and the memorabilia make it worth a visit for the die hard hard rock or Yankees fan, but I wouldn’t return again.

Being in Billy's pre-Yankees game felt like I had time traveled back into the Lambda Chi Atrium on a USC gameday. Just straight trench work. The mid EDM mixes are so loud the only way you can have a conversation is to yell in someone's ear, the youthful crowd all dressed in sports memorabilia starting to get loose after their 2nd white claw, the air tangible with mango flavored vape smoke, etc. You can actually get a drink pretty quick which is not the norm at these kinds of places. They got the kinks worked out. Couple $18 tequila sodas high and tight never hurt nobody. It's fun to move through life and get little memories of what your life used to be like. Stare at your past and you'll end up staying there, but it's fun to reminisce every now and then and see how far you've come. It's like inspiring yourself.

The place is huge ! Spacious. My friends and I went for a celebrity performance “R.L” . The drinks were ridiculously priced. For a 4oz cup of margarita full of ice it was $20. Buffalo wings were $27. It was a bit much. Minus the buying experience. The place was nice and the space was perfect for the amount of people that showed up. I would go on a full stomach next time. The wings were nothing special.

I wish I had a chair to watch the game but that’s the price of not paying to go to the game. Thank the lord I didn’t stand on the first floor to get splashed with beers. I love a dj to sound out the game. fun fun fun!

We stopped in here before the Yankee game on Labor Day. Bar downstairs and up on the rooftop. We actually came for breakfast. Our waitress was very nice and on top of everything. Very clean inside and played lots of great music mixes. Reasonably priced for being so close to Yankee Stadium. The food was good. I got the western omelette on a roll. It barely filled me. Luckily my kids never finish their food. I got to have some crispy delicious fries. Also had sone bites of the sausage egg and cheese. They make it with links not Pattie’s. The best was the breakfast wrap. Eggs, ham, cheese, peppers, onions, tomatoes. Lots of flavor tasted mixed together nicely. Nice spot to eat. Later on is a fun environment for drinks.

Great experience all around. Showed up without a reservation about 10 minutes before the start of a division series game and was able to get a table. the Hostess was very polite and ensured we got a table near a TV. The waiter was very knowledgeable of the menu and efficient with getting us in and out to get to the game. The Bison meatball appetizer was very tasty and the 20 oz ribeye was cooked perfectly. I particularly liked how it had a dark crunchy crust on the outside which gave it that extra flavor. Looking forward to coming back to try some other appetizers and desserts. Highly recommended!

The steak was cooked perfectly! Shrimp cocktail was delicious. 10/10 recommend coming here with your family before the game. Great memories were made.

Had the petite filet mignon, cooked okay, maybe a little overdone to my liking, but still good. Regular French fries are also good, and there are plenty to share, even for 3 people.

I want to thank Stephanie my waiter for making our dinner more than pleasant, she was amazing and very attentive. Also wanted to thank Jayson for checking in on us every so often making sure everything was alright in our table, and I notice he does it with all the guests as well. I mention this because it’s those little details that often go unnoticed that makes the entire dinning experience a pleasant one.

So, the food & drinks were GREAT. The atmosphere was wonderful and a lot of the workers there were very pleasant. My issue was with our server. She was very inattentive, never offered to fill our drinks, never checked on us during our meal, we were sitting there with empty cocktails, hoping to receive a dessert menu which I had to ask the bartender for. When she took our order she was very dry “what can I get you” sort of attitude as if this isn’t a fine dining establishment. My sister & I that were dining here are both servers so we know how it can be if the restaurant was busy or something, but it was not. There were maybe 3-4 other tables seated in the whole place. And our server was just laughing & giggling in the back with other workers while we sat there. Then we got our card out and waved her down, she grabbed our card without a word, then dropped the bill off without a word. We were fuming. We came 5 hours to watch the Yankee game and to eat here afterward. After a Yankee game loss, we were excited to still have a wonderful meal, we wanted to love it. And it’s sad because the food was wonderful, the man who served us our waters was wonderful, but our server was God awful. For how much the bill was, we were VERY disappointed with the service from her. We’re not the type to not tip because we’re servers ourselves, and usually tip at least 20% but only tipped her 10% hoping the tips were pooled with the other waitstaff. Oh - and it was our birthday (we’re twins) which we specified on our reservation when asked if we’re celebrating anything special and that was not acknowledged.

Absolutely nothing to brag about. I ordered the Virginia ham meal and was actually not at all surprised to hear it was not available . I guess the freezer where they keep all their frozen meal's was broken . The place was pretty much empty. Probably because it is one ugly neighborhood .

Fantastic deli and exactly what we were looking for. We wanted to get some authentic neighborhood Bronx breakfast. Did not disappoint. My corned beef egg sandwich was unbelievable! Amazing breakfast before Yankee Stadium tour.

It was sooo good I forgot to take a picture of my food, this is what’s left lol. I had half of pastrami on rye with mustard. It was good. I could have had a little more meat but that may be because I’m spoiled by KATz. The pastrami was tender and juicy. The French fries were good. They were steak fries. The diner is well lit with natural light. The service was superb. He was fast, courteous, efficient.

The reason why I voted so poorly is because I took a cab to arrive before it was too late for them to serve. I got there a few minutes before 8 . The server was very nice she told me I still had about 45 minutes which was okay with me but as I’m looking through the menu I heard the workers in the back talking about they are cleaning and they are closing so it made me feel uncomfortable even ordering…. If the time for closing is 9 and they’re still serving why are the workers in the back complaining?…. Overall the food is good here.

Ordered a Ruben and half the sandwich was inedible. As you can see in the picture almost every bite I had to spit out some fat or gristle. Couldn’t even finish it. Nobody should work that hard to eat a sandwich.

Wings with sauce are good . The fried chicken is horrible. The meat loaf is better cooked at home. The drinks are OK if coming from bottle or tap. It can get busy especially when the Yankees are playing at home. The service is a little slow then. The baked chicken is okay but can be a little dry. They err on the side of less seasoning.

Before our Yankees Game experience - trip to NYC - we decided to sample a nearby sports bar for a late lunch. It was everything a Yankees sports bar should be. I had a very good pastrami on rye. One thing I did not like was the bread. Rye bread needs to be firm, not doughy. But it tasted ok. Also had their onion rings and my husband had the Cubano Sandwich Hero, which was very generously sized.

We planned to attend a game but discovered, upon arrival, that it was postponed because there was going to be rain. We decided to explore the area and landed here. We’re so glad we did! The bartender (I’m sorry I don’t remember your name) was fantastic offering advice on the beer selections and a fun, dry sense of humor. The food was amazing- the bartender helped with suggestions on that, too!! Overall, it was a great tavern and I’d go back in a heartbeat if it were only closer to home!

This place was great! Great music! Great atmosphere, amazing crowd there, the beer was ice cold! Their chilli Nachos were great and hit the spot! It was my first time there, I can't tell you how many times I've passed through there and wanted to go in, I'm glad that I did. Very cool place for sure!

I just recently found out about the Feeding Tree and I am glad I did... better late than never. Let me start of by saying that the food is amazing here and so are the drinks. Last time I ordered the jerk chicken lunch special with rice and peas and they threw in a free piece of corn bread. Im not used to that at caribbean restaurants but it was a good combo with my food. The ginger fruit punch is absolutely tasty! My girlfriend and I shared one and finished it in about 2 minutes. We went back for a refill before leaving the street the restaurant is on haha. Some things I'm not too fond of are the small patties. They are really delicious but I finish them in about 5 bites so I would like if they made them bigger especially for the $2.25 price tag. Whenever I go here, the meat sections look empty and it throws me off, but they get so much business that the food is constantly getting depleted. Lastly, when you order a size up, you're supposed to get more of everything, but they gave me 3 pieces of meat with the lunch special and the medium... Other than that, this spot is the go to for a delicious Caribbean meal.

The food really good! Everything! My partner and I love to come here for chicken patties, its deliciously made. We also love the jerk chicken and rice peas ya know. Also, make sure you give our favorite drink from here a try! Which is ginger fruit punch, we go back for seconds all the time. They also give you free cornbread (which is so good too) with your meal.

I placed an order for the oxtail, peas, and rice. The oxtail was tender, and the peas and rice were satisfactory. However, the dish lacked the authentic Jamaican flavor and seemed to be more Americanized in taste. The place has been updated since I was last here. I would give 5 stars if they back the spicy flavor to the food.
Michelle A - 2 months ago

You get to listen to Jamaican music and you can eat there. The food was very fresh and it's not spicy at all. It's great for vegetarians to eat there also. It's just somewhat expensive for the dinner food

Excellent experience right near Yankee Stadium. The food is beyond tremendous and you can order ahead to get your order ready to go! The oxtail, the baked chicken and the whiting were off the chain. Licking my fingers and did not use napkins. The Mac & Cheese was delightful while the mixed cabbage made sure you go some vegetables in your system. So if you are near 161st Street in the Bronx, stop by Flavas and enjoy yourself!

Today was my first time visiting this location. I ordered the stew chicken with rasta pasta and cabbage. I brought a side of rice and peas which was very good. (The cabbage was good too!) And I heard a lot of good things about this restaurant but the stew chicken was not authentic and the rasta pasta was okay. They had many selections so I'm going to give them another chance just to be fair.

I placed my order through UBER that included two cinnamon twists, BUT I only received one. I Don't report it because I'm not so ridiculous to report $2 dollars. But they must be more careful next time with the orders, so that we receive it in full. Next time I wouldn't mind if it's $2 dollars, I'm going to report it and I'll stop ordering food in that place, because it's not fair for a good client to be mistreated.

Absolutely love this Taco Bell. The staff are always friendly and the service is blazing fast. Whether you order in store or the app, your food is ready in 10 minutes or less. The chefs are the best, they really love what they do and season the food with their in-house season. Trust me on this, this Taco Bell's food is not like any other Taco Bell. All their dishes are seasoned to perfection and the portions are generous for the price. Lastly, the price can't be beat by any means. For $10 dollars you can get 5 burritos, a side, a drink and still get change back (did I mentioned that the app gives you points that can be redeemed for more food with or without a purchase?). Overall, I strongly recommend this Taco Bell.
Anthony McDougald - a year ago

Really liked my first experience and will update the rating as I go along. The place is new, clean. Service friendly and super fast. I got my food really quick. I will definitely go back but so far I really like my experience. The quesarito was re really good and the taco was awesome. Please see the pics so you can see. Update: they sell beer and add liquor to their frozen drinks.
