NYC restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of 34 Street – Herald Square Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

This restaurant was a fantastic find! The dishes were packed with authentic flavors—spicy, savory, and full of that signature numbing sensation that Sichuan cuisine is known for. Each dish was beautifully presented and had the perfect balance of spice and freshness. The ingredients tasted top-notch, and the seasonings were bold without overwhelming the natural flavors. If you’re a fan of Chinese food, this place is a must-try! Highly recommend for anyone craving real Chinese food!

This place knows how to bring bold flavors to the table! I ordered the *Spring Bamboo & Beef Casserole*, which was so homey and delicious—the beef was super tender, and the bamboo had a nice crunch. The *Green Peppercorn Fish* stole the show for me, though. It’s spicy in the best way possible, and the fish was incredibly fresh. The *Boneless Pork Knuckles* were packed with flavor and practically melted in my mouth, and I really enjoyed the *Stir-Fried Kidney*, which was seasoned perfectly without being overpowering. The *Frog Dry Pot* was a fun surprise—it’s loaded with spices and made me a fan of frog meat! Overall, a fantastic meal with great service and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend if you’re into authentic Sichuan flavors!

I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food is super authentic Chinese, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. The fish dish, topped with green onions, was especially delicious – cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The other dishes we tried were tasty, with a nice balance of spices that made everything feel genuine and satisfying. The delivery was quick, and the prices are extremely reasonable, especially for Midtown Manhattan. The staff was friendly and made us feel comfortable from the start. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot for anyone looking for authentic Chinese food without breaking the bank. I’ll definitely be back. Recommend dishes: 葱花鱼，干锅牛蛙，爆炒腰花

The service is excellent, the staff are very friendly, the place is very clean and comfy. It is so hard to find a good restaurant like this around Manhattan. Love the spicy level, perfect for my level of spice. This place might be a perfect spot for Mark Wiens, who loves spicy foods and travelling around the world. Mark Wiens needs to try this place out. My friends, family, adults, and kids are very happy with the food. Not all foods are spicy. There are non-spicy foods for kids too. And you also can request the spicy levels that you like. This is definitely the spot for family dinner events and lunch with friends. I would rather eat healthy foods here than eat other quick foods outside.

I visited this restaurant last night with some friends, and we ordered a few dishes to share. The Young Bamboo & Beef Casserole was super comforting, with tender beef and fresh bamboo that soaked up all the rich flavors. The Green Peppercorn Fish really brought the heat with those Sichuan spices—spicy but so addictively numbing. The Boneless Pork Knuckles were surprisingly soft and flavorful, with just the right amount of kick, and the Stir-Fried Kidney had a unique, earthy flavor that grew on me with each bite. The highlight for me, though, was the Frog Dry Pot. The spices were spot on, and the frog was cooked perfectly—not something I’d typically order, but I’m glad I tried it. Portions were generous, and the staff was attentive. Definitely coming back to explore more of the menu!

Keens Steakhouse is a New York City institution that truly lives up to its legendary status. The moment you step inside, you're transported back to a bygone era of elegance and sophistication. The dimly lit, wood-paneled dining rooms exude a classic charm, and the attentive service adds to the overall experience. The star of the show, of course, is the steak. The quality of the meat is exceptional, expertly cooked to perfection. The sides, particularly the creamed spinach and the crispy fries, are equally delicious. Don't forget to indulge in one of their famous mutton chops - a truly unique and unforgettable dining experience. The wine list is extensive, offering a wide range of options to complement your meal. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night out, Keens Steakhouse is the perfect place to create lasting memories. We visited in September 2024 and would highly recommend.

A wonderful restaurant which serves meat of the highest quality. I recommend the prime filet mignon. So full of flavour and so tender. And the thick-cut smoked bacon appetizer is absolutely delicious. The best bacon I’ve ever tasted. The service is efficient and pleasant. Highly recommended… but be sure to book a long time in advance as this steakhouse in very popular !

Every time when I’m craving a steak it’s always Keens. Classic and famous NYC steak house. I have been here many times. The food and service is amazing. They have plenty of seat so walk in is easy. My favorite appetizer is baked blue cheese puff. I like to eat it with the complimentary bread. So so good ‎(◕ᴗ◕✿) For entree we love prime rib king the size is good for 2 people. The meat is great quality and juicy. Perfect cooked. Mushrooms side is very tasty. It has a little bit tangy favor.

My favorite steakhouse in NYC so far. This was my second time here, almost 3 years after my first. Had an amazing time with my cousins here back in Sept 2021, so I had to share the experience with my boyfriend. We were on a short trip to NYC for our anniversary and chose this place to celebrate. We were seated on the first floor this time and were greeted by our server. Great guy! Fellow Filipino. My boyfriend got a cocktail, I got a red wine. We ordered the oysters, mutton chop (my favorite), and a tbone steak, I believe, with a few sides. It took them a little long to bring out our mains, but we didn't really notice until their manager apologized. We were just there to relax and enjoy the food. We told them it was not a problem and they did give us a dessert on the house to make up for the delay. 2 for 2 amazing experience. Will definitely drop by every time I'm in New York.

I finally got to try out Keen's this past Sunday and it did not disappoint! The bartenders were great! Professional and sociable! I had their famous Mutton Chop and it was an incredible cut of meat! Thanks Keen's for a fantastic time!

We visited restaurant on Sunday. It’s pretty empty which is good for us so we can relax. Food is really good! We absolutely love it. We order dozen of oysters, chicken wings, chicken pot pie, and apple pie ( really recommend; not too sweet, just right amount of sweetness) all were very tasty. Shout out for my 2 lady servers. They are super busy cause they must have covered the whole restaurant just two of them. They were very friendly and service-minded ( Sunday, Aug 25). Would come back again.

Delightful Lunch Experience. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cafe China. And thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The overall experience was outstanding, thanks to the delicious food, cozy atmosphere, and attentive service. Our bartender, Edward, provided exceptional care, ensuring our lunch at the bar counter was memorable. The menu offerings did not disappoint. Standouts included the savory Ma po tofu, flavorful purple and white rice, perfectly cooked string beans, and tender shredded chicken with yellow chives. The spicy cucumber appetizer, however, fell short of expectations. Instead of the anticipated spicy kick and perfect marinade balance, it consisted of fresh cucumbers topped with a few red peppers, lacking flavor and seasoning. Despite this minor misstep, I highly recommend this place. Reservations are essential, as wait times can reach 40-60 minutes. Our bill totaled $112 for two people, including six dishes and hot jasmine tea – a reasonable price for the quality and quantity. Kudos to the team for the elegant business card design, reflecting the restaurant's attention to detail. Our rating - 4.5/5. Thank you and good luck.

It's a decent place for some Chinese and it's a pretty big space so we had no trouble being seated. The food was ok but suffering from the usual pitfalls of being very oily or fatty (especially the scallion pancakes). I only got through half of my portion of pork ribs before surrendering to it in shame. A strange point I had to mention about the shiitake mushrooms stir fry is that it has an ingredient in it that somehow numbs your mouth and leaves behind a strange, dry aftertaste. It's likely I'm just too white for these ingredients but I felt it's worth mentioning for other equally melanin challenged folks who may want to visit.

Jul 24 Dinner 4 of us All very delicious food Service 9/10 quick but maybe because we are seated near the kitchen. See below. Ambience 7/10 maybe because we are seated at behind near the kitchen and under the stairs but overall the decor are nice. And the place is big inside.

We came here on weekday evening, and it’s pretty crowded and almost impossible to get a table without making reservations in advance. The food was okay - i enjoyed appetizers much more than the main dishes. Would look forward to trying other main dishes next time.

Good spot for Sichuan cuisine. Some of our favorites were the Husband & Wife Special (tripes), the Fish Blossom and the Curiously Tasty Chicken. The Eight Jewel Rice Pudding dessert was also pleasantly refreshing.

Mr Song hosted us incredibly well! I couldn’t believe how hospitable, kind and attentive he was during our Korean BBQ meal here. The team have been fantastic. I would HIGHLY recommend coming here. It’s a must in Korean town NYC! We will be coming here again from London, UK!

Good Korean food. Service was great. The free appetizer choices is not as great though. Seafood pancake was good and their cold noodle good too. Dumpling was good too but bit greasy

Stopped here for lunch after some shopping in NYC. Typical Korean food, price was reasonable for NYC, but there are many other restaurants to try in the neighborhood. Overall was satisfied but nothing spectacular.

The Liberty restaurant food was delicious I had Mediterranean wrap and my sister had omelette Dessert try cheesecake or deluca cake and ice cream The service was awesome! Very friendly staff. Also has outdoor seating available.

This is a very loud bar with TV screens on the walls playing sports. The music is very loud. If you want a place to chat with friends without shouting, this isn’t the spot. The interior is fun. The salmon, mashed potatoes, and sautéed vegetables is very basic but good. No sauces accompany the dish. The server called me hun and mama. It’s a place for groups to drink and nosh on shared plates.

Spacious place for indoor and outdoor seating. My go to place for happy hour. Oysters are excellent and fresh. Good bar food apps like calamari and chicken tenders. Usually hit this place once or twice a year on biz trips.

Not my favorite bar. Bartender (brunette gal) was not friendly and kept eyeing my husband, not a good look. The nachos were delicious but pizza just so so. Have been to better bars with better atmosphere and definitely classier service.

Location is convenient, easy to get to. Can eat inside or outside. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and super helpful. Even the host and the tabke busser was A+. We were not rushed from our table. They even took my friends request to sing happy birthday to me with a complimentary slice of cheesecake. The food was good, prices for a NYC restaurant was excellent, they have happy hour drinks until 8pm. I'd definitely go back next time I'm in midtown. 10/10.

Everything was so good! You can really taste the difference in their handmade tofu. Be prepared to wait for a seat. I recommend going to put your name down first before doing anything else around the area. We had to wait 1 hour so it was definitely smarter for us if we did our shopping after we started queuing.

This is the best Korean restaurant I've ever eaten at in New York—hands down. With many unique dishes you won't find at other places, like the squid rice dish. They also offer a generous amount of banchan (side dishes), and the service is excellent—they kept refilling our side dishes without us even asking. I truly hope this restaurant never closes; that's the highest compliment I can give!

I was so curious to give a shot on seeing the people waiting in line to taste the food here. Food was amazing and worth the wait. So visited twice (lunch & dinner)when I was in NYC for a week. Customer service was top notch and with lots of smile on their face. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to try Korean cuisine.

The best Korean restaurant in NYC hands down! Tofu stew is the best I ever had, and they are so generous with the small side dishes, which are equally delicious! The atmosphere is warm and the service is top notch! Highly recommend!

Great Korean spot. It is quite busy and they don’t take reservations so either come right when they open or have to put your name down on a waiting list. They are known for their homemade tofu. All the food is tasty and the spicy dishes definitely have a kick.

Overall we had a good experience. Great cocktails. Good food (excellent desserts, meat had lots of nerves, not really tender despite being rare). There was an error in one of our orders with the kitchen which derailed a bit the rhythm of eating with the other guests but this was corrected fairly quickly and they left the wrong dish to be shared, which was nice. Our waiter was knowledgeable and helpful. Cleanliness of the table throughout the dinner could have been more regularly addressed. Fairly priced menu.

We were incredibly impressed by the Michelin stars awarded to this restaurant! Our visit was absolutely delightful, thanks to the exceptional service provided by the attentive staff. They went out of their way to make our anniversary celebration truly special, surprising us with a scrumptious cake. Along with this thoughtful gesture, we were treated to a meticulously crafted multi-course menu designed to showcase the delicious flavors of the season. It was a truly memorable dining experience that exceeded all our expectations.🫶🏻❤️

Located on the second floor of a hotel past a nice flowery staircase. You have to be seated in the bar area for the martini hour, where there are dining tables and you can order the same dishes as in the dining area. (But I’d personally recommend foregoing the martini hour; the drinks weren’t that amazing.) Meanwhile Trofie Nero had just the right mix of flavors and was delicious.

One of our favorite dinner atmospheres in Manhattan. Amazing food, perfect service and a menu worth traveling for. Not only did my wife and I get engaged here but we came back 3 years later on our honeymoon.
Adam Wentland West - a week ago

Pretty mediocre quality (thought the pastas were honestly just ok) and the value for price was bad. Atmosphere was a bit stuffy too. Thought the risotto was undercooked as rice was not fully cooked. The salad, however, was fantastic. Probably won’t be back.

As a Flight Attendant, you often have to pick from a group of words if you want to eat on layover and didn't have time to meal prep. Fast/affordable/healthy/easy/nearby/variety, you often only get to pick two. I'm so happy that I found a place in downtown NY that meets all of these categories. The food was delicious, the selection was wide, lots of healthy options, quick, and didn't break my wallet before payday. You can eat in or take away, microwaves are available to heat up the food, and even later at night there was a great selection and people bringing fresh product out. I easily found everything I needed for myself and my crew and was able to rush back to my hotel and feed them after a long day of flying. The people who work there are exceptional, very kind and welcoming. I want to especially say thank you to Rue, who was super sweet, and so nice to talk to. She was thorough and friendly, and very kind. I look forward to my next layover in NYC, because I will absolutely be coming back and bringing my crew with me next time so we can share a meal in the store.

Woorijip marries convenience with wholesome food. I picked up food around 10am for lunch and snacks in my train ride. Many of the trays on the shelves were empty but steadily being stocked. The dishes brought out were still slightly warm from being prepared earlier that morning. Each shelf was marked with date and time prepared for food safety reasons. The flavor and preparation of each dish was perfect and thoughtful. The check out process at the counter was efficient and friendly. The clerk added rubber bands to each of my containers to secure the contents. I'd go here often if it were closer!

You pick your own food/dish from a rack but the dishes are mostly cold and u heat it up using microwave. I prefer the fried chicken and beer place across the road instead where they have hot table to keep the food hot.

So good! Quick and healthy. The food was seasoned well despite the low price point. The beef was savory, japchae was chewy, rice was fluffy, shumai was shrimpy, and the greens were refreshing. The egg was lacking salt but was still good. The kimchi was more bitter than I prefer. $14 for a lunchbox with this much food and variety is a steal. The drink brought me to $19 total with tax. They offer 8% off for cash - definitely remember that next time. The vibe is great for solo eaters on their lunch break. They also have a wide variety of other entrees, sides, and drinks. Each item has a prepared date to indicate freshness which is helpful when selecting your meal. I’ll definitely be coming back here again!

Super smart way of having food ready to go. The food was super tasty and worth it. We were able to quickly eat there at a reasonable price. My only complaint is how little beer there was in the bulgogi. It looks like there's a lot, but the meat is a thin layer that's spread at the top.

I came here for a co-workers retirement dinner, and I will be honest that I had very low expectations dining here since the restaurant is located on the 6th floor in Macy's. But, to my surprise, the restaurant is very lovely and the food, in my opinion, tasted great. We got the bread for the table, calamari, and seared prawns as appetizers to be shared. My main course was the roasted chicken, and it was cooked perfectly, and it was moist and juicy. My cocktail of the Spicy Blood Orange Margarita gave me a nice buzz. The only issue was the service, which was a tad slow. We were way done with our appetizers and drinks before our server came back to get our main course orders. Don't get me wrong, the young man who waited on us was very friendly and took our orders correctly, and made sure that he addressed my co-workers' food allergies with the kitchen. They have a decent sized food and drinks menu, but it can seem rather expensive...then again it is located in Macy's. In spite of the slower than usual service, I really enjoyed my meal here and would dine her again in the future.

Went there for Drag Brunch with friends! I looked at a few reviews of the place beforehand and was worried about the food as most people said it wasn’t great at all. I got the avocado toast and was pleasantly surprised, it came with a side salad and was pretty good! A bit bland, but nothing that salt and pepper couldn’t fix. The bread was quite hard though, and I couldn’t cut it with my knife and fork. Bottomless mimosas were great though! And Drag Brunch was the best!! The vibes and the energy were amazing, the drag kings were just so great, I had the most fun ever.

Love and hate at the same time. My hiding spot in NYC. Quiet and relaxing. Cocktail is only so-so/ bad. Well, I made it better at home. Did not order food last time.. Price is high. $19 for so-so cocktail, plus tax plus tips. End up $26 a drink...... I know it is NY, but.... If the environment is good, I will not come again
