NYC restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of 18th Street Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

My mom and I stopped in here because we are big Sex and the City fans and wanted to dine in a restaurant we saw on the show during our visit to NYC. We didn't have a reservation but we were able to walk in and be seated right away. The service was great -- we loved our waitress and loved their energy. Loved the extensive menu and large wine list! We had mimosas and brunch and it was delightful. Great little place and would love to come back someday.

WOW. We already can’t wait to come back here! Nick and Atrice gave us 5⭐️ service. The food was also incredible! The truffle egg and fried chicken and waffles were perfect. I got the green juice which was also great! We’ll definitely go back- in a matter of days so we can try more of the menu and see the kind staff! 😊

We've been walking past this spot and finally on a perfect day. The garage doors were open so the restaurant was indoor/outdoor and a perfect ambiance. The food was incredible and the service was great!

Why would a place serve tasteless or generic condiments for its burgers. It just make sense. The meatballs were good as an appetizer. The fries are pretty good. The service here isn’t consistent. Our waiter from Ohio was very good and personable. His support staff needs a tad more training. Since we were still eating the appetizer, he sat one plate on a different table next to us. Is timing and planning his fault or the management. The atmosphere was semi festive for the holidays.

Firstly, the waitress from Venezuela was superb: she aimed to please, she was friendly and witty. The young man who greeted us was from Colombia. Both were amiable. Architecturally, they try to give you a Mediterranean vibe. On food, if it had matched the quality of service this place would be five stars. My guest enjoyed his meal. I was told I must come here for brunch which I have not done and since I live in Chelsea I will give it a try. For the price the food was good.

What a beautiful surprise!! Absolutely loved it♥️♥️ Food was really good (though rations are a bit small for the prices). Atmosphere was great and service was awesome. Daniela was our server and was really attentive and suggested just the right things🫶🏻 Would definitely recommend and return!!

We love Zizi! Food, drink, service 10 out of 10!! The owner is super nice and gave our puppy some delicious chicken from the kitchen. We ordered the eggplant carpaccio, overnight lamb, and Moroccan sea bass. So yummy 😋 especially the lamb. For cocktail, I had the gin martini- forgot the name but very delicate and balanced as well. Would recommend this place for sure if you want authentic Israeli/ Mediterranean food.

Eggplant carpaccio was superb. Cannot forget about it lol We also liked the cucumber-something-martini; perfect for anyone who enjoys cocktails without the sweetness.

Nice quaint spot to get your morning fix. Oat milk latte with some cinnamon and a very intriguing breakfast sandwich. Egg, mushroom and goat cheese great flavor. If you are walking by give a shot, if you live in the neighborhood make it a staple.

My go-to for 10 years! I can’t start my day without an almond latte here. It truly makes my day better. The staff and owner are all friendly and attentive and the food is delicious. There is no place like the The Commons Chelsea and it’s my first stop as soon as I return from any trips. Commons Chelsea is GOAT

Great, great coffee at The Commons Chelsea! I always love to swing by when I am in the area for an excellent espresso. It is a small but well-curated location, and the staff is always super friendly and smiley.

Edit since I can't reply: I verified the prices for the meat and non-meat options before posting my review. They are $17.99 and $15.99, respectively. Leaving a mid-range review for mid-range service is, in my opinion, not "bashing". Given the owner's condescending response I think a 3-star is more than the business deserves. Original post: Below average breakfast burrito and bad coffee. The menu prices when ordering pickup through their preferred app are higher than what’s posted on-site, which I found dishonest.

The mushroom goat cheese egg sandwich is AMAZING! The challah brioche roll was light and perfect with the huge serving of eggs. Fast service, delicious food, great options. Their house made hot sauce tipped the scales to be the best egg sandwich on my list.

Good no-nonsense food at a very good price point. Some highlights for us - Burger is tasty and doesn't feel overly rich. Makes for a good guilt-free feed. You may want to consider asking for sauce if you like more flavour though. The base Burger was plenty for me however. French fries are cooked perfectly - nice and crispy, very hard to stop eating! Cauliflower with tahini (market veges) was a good compliment to our mains. I'll definitely be back for a casual meal and would recommend for anyone looking for a simple meal to drop by.

GREAT AMERICAN RESTAURANT WITH HEALTHY VEGGIES 🥗 It’s an energetic spot for an early weekend dinner. Without reservations, there were only seats outside but it worked out since the weather was nice. ⛅️ The food as Westville never disappoints as it’s fairly reasonable for the quality of food you get. It’s a very farm-to-table vibe as there are plenty of market vegetables to choose from. I actually ordered an entree entirely off market vegetables which they call a “market plate”. I had the roasted peaches watermelon mint salad, sautéed kale with pumpkin seeds, beets with goat cheese walnuts, and yucca fries. 👍🏼 others at the table had salmon plate with peas, bacon, and caramelized onions and pesto mashed potatoes. Another had the chicken cutlet with garlic mash, and perfectly roasted asparagus with parmesan. All was EXCELLENT. It’s a good place for good food that you won’t feel guilty about! They even have a kids menu for the little ones 👧🏻 👦🏻 Highly Recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
LIEM - 6 months ago

Unfortunately my first time trying Westville was disappointing. I ordered a kale salad to go and added 7oz of chicken to it for an additional $7. When I got my order, I ended up only receiving 4oz of chicken. $7 for 7oz was already pricey but $7 for 4oz was unacceptable. The pickled onions ended up being too sharp too and overwhelmed the other flavors in the salad. I was excited to try this salad after seeing an influencer hype it up online but I was sorely disappointed with it after trying it today and would not get the salad again.
Catherine Yao - 5 months ago

A great healthy food option! I had a hard time picking what market vegetables to order with our chicken since they all sounded so good! We got the goddess green beans on the side too. Seasonal dessert was strawberry pie a la mode and I loved it!

Bar Veloce Chelsea has been my neighborhood spot for the past 5 years, and is truly a neighborhood staple. The happy hour deal is unbeatable, the ambiance is perfection, and the staff is so fun and welcoming. The entire staff - especially David, Dara, and Valentin - are absolutely, 100% the reason that I keep coming back. They all immediately make you feel at home. The only drawback is that the music is quite dated and doesn’t quite fit the overall vibe. Aside from that - I could not recommend this spot more highly. You will not be disappointed!
Sarah Talbert - 2 months ago

Great place to have a nice drink and chat. We stopped by to end the night and had a great time speaking with Dara, our bartender. She makes the best drinks and has me hooked on that lavender drink. Thank you, Dara, for being friendly and funny to go along with your mixologist skills.
Trevor Bonner - 10 months ago

Love me a cozy NYC wine bar. Found a seat relatively easy on a Saturday around 7pm. Charcuterie meat and cheese “piatto veloce” is perfect for 2 and the panini pressed bread is sooo good. 🍷🧀🍖
Amy Vardijan - 2 months ago

Chic atmosphere and tasty tapas plus great happy hour. The service was Stellar. Jackie behind the bar was kind and interesting. This place is a chelsea staple and there’s several other successful locations around town. If you see a bar veloce, definitely give it a whirl. Solid wine list too

Dropped by on a Sunday night an hour before closing. Great vibes and awesome service. Didn't rush us at all and let us enjoy a good time with friends! Food was honestly pretty damn good. I wasn't expecting to be blown away but their mac & cheese is definitely worth trying alongside some of their entrees like the penne. Best of all, Elmo has incredibly generous portion sizes. I was definitely rolling out of the restaurant.
Albert Wang - 5 months ago

Elmo is so wonderful, I wish I could hang here every day. Elmo was really good and extremely affordable. I am impressed, Elmo was truly incredible. Flavorful menu items at great prices, great atmosphere to unwind at. Delightful menu items at really good prices, amazing ambience to unwind at. Unique menu items, welcoming staff, charming atmosphere - what more could you ask for? Every single thing was fresh, flavorful, and extremely yummy. Everything was wonderful and delicious. Every thing I've tried thus far has been wonderful. The service was also perfect and every one was nice. Service was amazing and everyone working here was incredibly nice and generous. The team are really attentive and kind and they're great at giving recommendations. Will certainly be back to try other items. Great experience and the staff was great! The service was outstanding, and I will certainly repeat Elmo when in the area.

The ribs were excellent. Drinks perfect. You are the best guys. We were here at 8‘clock on a Saturday, I think a reservation is needed.

Very nice atmosphere but super loud. Definitely not for a romantic date. It's perfect for a gathering of friends to catch-up and have drinks, and share the many appealing appetizers. There is a great bar as well.
C P - 11 months ago

My wife and I went here for My birthday. Service was great. They were really attentive. Not even just our server. Another server came and checked on us too. The vibe is nice and decor makes for a fancy night out or a casual chill meal. The food was amazing. They accommodated my wife’s sesame seed allergy. Our drinks were okay. BUT they were strong so I got exactly what I wanted. I will be back. I haven’t felt good about spending over $100 on food for two ever. And I’d definitely recommend for dates or just a nice meal with friends.

A perfect cozy neighborhood spot. Huge menu with something for everyone, with great portions and reasonable prices. Gives vibes of more old school new york. Specials menu adds a little variety - we tried the duck ravioli and it was a lovely addition!
Kennis Dees - 3 months ago

Several options to choose from, including daily specials. The pesto was really good. Others had the Mac and Cheese because it had truffles and they really liked it. The portions were just right (not small or big). The bread was a nice touch too. They have a painting from Madonna which is quite nice / funny.
Carlos Vivas Augier - 7 months ago

Good Italian places like this are distinguished by the high quality of their tomato sauces and pasta. The dishes here were fragrant and herby, the sauce fresh and full of natural flavour, and the pasta had perfect texture. For our lunch for two, the quiet restaurant atmosphere was ideal for conversations while we nibbled on the complimentary bread, olives garlic, and olive oil dip. We enjoyed some Aperol and Campari drink mixes before our orders arrived. We recommend the two course set menu as it was great value for money. For starters, both the Eggplant Parmigiana and Baked Goat Cheese were memorable for the fresh fragrant tomato taste and different cheeses. For mains, the Rigatoni was deliciously put together and the Branzino (fish) was tender in the fillet and crispy on the skin. If you are in the Chelsea neighbourhood and after something a bit nice but in a comfortable and casual setting, this is the place for you.

Warm décor, delicious food, and fabulous staff. They were so sweet and promptly brought us our food. We ordered the fried calamari & zucchini chips to start, chicken parmesano, chicken meatball dish, and truffle mac and cheese. We finished with the tiramisu, Cioccolatissimo, and Crème Brûlée. It's rare to find a place where every dish is enjoyable. The Crème Brûlée was my favorite. It was so smooth! Best tiramisu I've had in quite some time. The flavors and textures were well balanced. This is one of those rare places where every dish was exceptional and we didn't experience a long wait for anything. We also weren't bombarded with plates and overlapping dishes/courses. Every course had impeccable timing and was the perfect temperature. For instance, we just finished the last chip in the starter and table was cleared for the sizzling mac and cheese that we heard making it's way from the kitchen. I appreciate the attention to detail. In other restaurants, I hate waiting too long because I feel like I'm going to be there all night and I can't stand being rushed so staff can flip the table. They made us feel welcome but it seems they understood that we don't live there lol. My favorite part is being allowed to rest our food after this culinary experience! It wasn't difficult to ask for the check and they brought us our bags the moment we stood up without us asking. Reminds me of the quality of service I grew up with experiencing on Mulberry street in the 90s. Comfortable, delicious, genuinely warm/welcoming, and easy going but attentive. I didn't think I'd encounter the quality of service we received in this place. Not that I doubted them specifically! Lol. It's just so rare to have a pleasant experience from beginning to end. The décor definitely adds to that 90s NYC vibe but it's part of its charm. So that's a plus, for me. Nostalgic but not completely outdated. The entire staff collaborated very well together to tend to every table. I was advised to reserve a table but I'm not sure we needed to because we dined early at 6pm. But the reservation didn't hurt. If you eat the way we did, be prepared to spend a pretty penny if you visit with a party of 4+ even if no one drinks. For the quality of food, I find it pretty affordable if your group just gets one dish each because times are hard. In this economy? Sometimes we have to make sacrifices lol. But if you can hack it, try as many dishes as you can possibly afford lol. Great wine selections, also! A huge thank you to the staff at Le Zie for making my mother's 69th birthday dinner a memorable one. I hope to be back soon for the Chicken Liver Pâté Crostini and Yellowfin Tuna Ravioli!

My favorite restaurant in New York. Excellent drinks and service. Food is always consistently very good. It is always very quiet, music is kept very low dining rooms well insulated from noise. The sidebar is lively and very cozy and pleasant.

Coppelia is hands-down one of my favorite spots in the city—an absolute must-visit for anyone who loves bold Latin flavors done right. Every time I go, I’m blown away by the quality, but two dishes absolutely steal the show: the churrasco steak and the short rib nachos. Let’s start with the short rib nachos—these are not your average appetizer. They’re layered with tender, flavorful short rib that melts in your mouth, perfectly balanced with creamy cheese, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of heat. They’re rich, satisfying, and honestly could be a meal on their own. Then there’s the churrasco steak—cooked to perfection, juicy, and packed with flavor. It’s served with a chimichurri that’s so fresh and vibrant, it elevates every bite. The presentation is always on point, and you can tell this dish is made with care and skill every single time. On top of the incredible food, the atmosphere at Coppelia is lively yet comfortable, and the service is consistently attentive and friendly. If you haven’t tried these two dishes yet, you’re seriously missing out. Coppelia is the real deal

This food was incredible. We got the shrimp dish and I wanted to bottle up the juice/drippings that they were in and take them home. 🤤 The churrasco was amazing. And the tres leches 🤩 every bite was delicious. Great music. Open all night.

I ordered the Havana salad with shrimp and a side of tostones and it was so delicious! The shrimp had the perfect amount of seasoning. This is now going to be my go to lunch spot when I’m in this area because I want to try the rest of this menu. The portion size you get for the price and quality of the food is so nice as eating out has gotten so expensive! The staff is so nice and welcoming. I’m not a big drinker so I ordered the mango and passion fruit juice and it paired nicely with my meal. The mango juice tasted like a fresh mango picked off a tree.

CHELSEA, NY - This is always our go-to breakfast spot! The service is spot on, and it's one of the trendiest cafes in the neighborhood. . The ambiance is quite nice, especially with the dog-themed décor. Local artists have their dog paintings adorning the walls, which adds a boho touch. The rustic and warm atmosphere makes it perfect for a nice chat, whether you’re catching up with a friend or sharing a special moment with someone. . As for the service, friendly and attentive. . Now, let's talk food. Try the 1/2 lb Big House Burger with cheddar cheese, with a side of caramelized onions or tossed salad, or the crispy Julienne fries with bacon. The burgers are delicious and cooked just right (or as you would like it to be). For drinks, try the refreshing peach mango fizz that is perfectly balanced — not too sweet at all. . Other great dishes are the nachos, wings, and French toast. The buffalo sauce is cooked right into the wings instead of just slathered on top, making them nice and crispy. The French toast have the perfect texture — just the right balance of soft and firm. . If I'm back in the area, you can bet I’ll swing by for breakfast, lunch or weekend brunch!

Went here with my friend and loved the drinks and atmosphere! I got the seasonal pumpkin espresso martini which was lovely :)) It tasted so smooth and I got a happy buzz. My friend ordered the happy hour marg. It was strong and tasted good with a salt rim. The staff was all so sweet and very friendly. Love the halloween decorations too, cozy and cute! My friend and I were technically here to catch up and get some work done and they didn’t mind that which was so sweet. Also the bathroom was very clean and they had a great playlist (mix of pop music now/throwback and latin music).

This place had such a fun and cafe-like comforting vibe! Our waitress was great and very helpful. I liked the brunch options as they have a good amount of options. We got the hibiscus mimosa and Bloody Mary to drink - both made well and yummy. To eat we got the chilaquiles and egg croissant sandwich. Nice portions and good flavors. I couldn’t finish my meal and I liked how the chilaquiles came with chorizo with a nice twist in presentation as well.

This is a fantastic place for brunch in Chelsea. The staff is very friendly and efficient, even if the place gets crowded. The food service is very quick too. The atmosphere inside is nice and cozy. It's brilliant for having a nice meal with friends and family. There's music inside, so maybe not the best place for quiet conversations. We ordered the burger, Mexican bowl, avocado toast and fried chicken with pancakes. The food was delicious, especially the oatmeal pancakes and Mexican bowl. The drinks were really refreshing, especially on a hot day. Have absolutely no issues recommending this place.

Nice size Bar/Restaurant. I like the Old Timey feel of the place. The prices are very reasonable. I had the Chicken Fingers, which were very dry but I liked the sauces it came with. It seems like a neighborhood bar but one where everyone is welcomed. Meg is a good bartender and she's very nice and welcoming. I would come back but I would order something else.

Really appreciate a bar that has a traditional telephone booth in it. It's so amazing to see that these things still exist. It is a small bar and a lot of people. So the atmosphere is a little difficult at times. The food is fantastic, nothing better than a cheeseburger and beer
RTClass - 3 months ago

Here you can feel the atmosphere of old New York, brutal and cozy at the same time but yet attractive. The food is delicious and the selection of beers is large. The interior is atmospherically "tired" from the multitude of stories told and hectoliters of beer drunk. Ohh and if you're naughty there's a baseball bat by the whisky bottles. it looks used...
Maciek Wieloch - 4 months ago

A great bar. Looked lived in and had immense character. Treated me fast and good. Had your cheeseburger. It was a real treat. I don’t have a lot of chances traveling for work picking the best options, but this place was cozy, comfy and a nice house ale to keep you company. Thank you for your hospitality.

The real New York. Called in here for a break after a day of walking around the Village. Loved it. It was pretty much deserted when we got there but the bar tender was still on it, attentive and friendly, going about his jobs until we were ready to order. The place is what I dearly love about New York. Not trying to be anything it isn't (nobody in their right mind could call it flashy!), but oozing character, history, charm, you can only imagine the tales from here if you're lucky enough to be a regular. A snippet of genuine, American/Irish authenticity in the ever growing sea of fake not too far from here. We had food and drinks, all of which were great. Thanks to Brian for the great service and the conversation. Another one for the memory banks to cherish!
