NYC restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of 68th Street – Hunter College Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

Your typical Irish Pub/Sports Bar, it's a lot bigger than it looks from the outside. Service is decent, but not anything to really get excited about, and it can get a big crowded in the front when Hunter students stop by. The burgers are tasty, especially the BLT. Be aware that you'll probably have no phone service if you go to the back. Overall, a nice place to grab a drink, especially since there aren't a ton of bars in the area.

Phoenix is good as a sports bar, but fails as anything else. The staff is super unfriendly to the point of belligerence and disappears for hours. We ended up having to go to the bar for drink and food orders several times. The food is also not great. The wings, while large, were just doused in red hot sauce, leaving them soggy and way too vinegary. The nachos were huge and looked a bit better. Beer selection was average, but nothing special and slightly disappointing for NYC. The only non major brand offered was Lagunitas which isn't exactly a tiny craft shoppe these days. The others were all domestic staples that were not at all exciting. I guess it is supposed to be a traditional Irish pub which is supposed to allow for a rougher atmosphere, but I just found it slightly dirty and sticky. The patrons are not people you'd want to associate with for the most part and a few verbal scuffles broke out toward the end of the night. There are better bars in the area.

Great Happy Hours, Great Wings(HUGE BTW), Next to a cheap parking garage. Pool table and outside patio are a bonus. Bartenders are always great, Waitresses can be a hit or miss. This was one of my stops during my bachelorette party, The girls working that night paid the bar drunk to molest me via lap dance, good times..good times. Guy below me couldn't sound anymore like a pompous douche.

Came to watch Iceland make history against France (albeit in a losing effort). Brian, the bartender, was phenomenal. The food, drink, and atmosphere were great.

When I was a newby to nyc I was like a fish out of water. I saw the mets neon sign in the window I had to go in, all in all its a great place, the service is outstanding and (whatever they did to the menue ) is magnificent.

From the second you walk in, the experience begins. Everyone is so nice and helpful. I think I got 10 good evenings on the way to my table. The restaurant is beautiful and so elegant. Service was impeccable! I ordered the 9-course tasting menu and it was incredible. The entire evening was truly amazing and the staff was perfection. I was also given a tour of the kitchen which was so impressive to see everyone in action. I made one last stop at the bar and had a wonderful drink. Incredible evening in NYC!

The whole experience was phenomenal - starting from very warm welcome, ambience, service and especially the food. The tasting menu options were all encompassing with their best dishes and we really loved all of them. The desert experience was out of the world! Lastly we would like to note a special mention for Javier (captain for our section) - he made sure we had the best experience on a special day including a kitchen tour! Overall totally loved the Michelin 2 experience at Daniel’s and we would highly recommend it.

This past Sunday I had the great pleasure of dining at Daniel with great friends in celebration of my birthday. We had the four course tasting menu and we were stuffed. They had several extra little nibbles come out in addition to the ordered courses which was really great. The food was presented creatively and was delicious. The flavors were well balanced and the menu offered a broad range of choices. The drinks were presented beautifully and were equally delicious. The service was outstanding and what I expected at a Michelin star restaurant. It really makes a big difference to be taken care of with such care. This was the perfect restaurant to bring in a special birthday or other occasion. Thank you to the team at Daniel for making it very special and I’ll be happy to come back.

This had to have been one of the best dining experiences in my life. I have eaten at so many Michelin restaurants around the world and the service at this place was absolutely outstanding. A 200/10 rating in terms of service. our waiter (Matthew who is now a Maitre D there!) had been working there for many years, gave fantastic suggestions on what to order, helped us figure out if we want a whole bottle of wine what type of wine, and how much of it we should order in conjunction with our meal. What really pushed the service over the top was that everything was perfectly organized, and our waiter went to the back room to even ask if they had extra leftover pastries for us as they had some freshly baked ones earlier that day. We left this restaurant so ridiculously fooled because of all the free dessert. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. The interior was beautiful. We got a great side table where we could people watch and enjoy, the wine was superb. 100% would go back again and definitely recommend. I even felt that the price was actually quite fair considering the ingredient quality and amount of food you get 10 out of 10 place. Update 2024: we returned and were served by Matthew and Jorge, service, food and ambiance still exceptional. Will definitely return as usual!

Came here with my girl for our anniversary dinner and I was excited to come here given its reputation and not to mention, their two Michelin stars! We were both blown away by how they treated us like royalty every step of the way and how attentive and detailed they are with every dish; staff was also very personable and friendly! Really enjoyed every bite, and we were too full at the end to finish off the dessert but really loved how they catered to us! By far my favorite Michelin restaurant, thank you from another Daniel!

• One of the few truly authentic Italian restaurants in the Upper East Side. • My favorite spot is the table next to the window. • The food is consistently delicious and the ambiance is cozy. • The interior decor is interesting and eye-catching. • The staff is always friendly and welcoming. • The owner is frequently present on the floor, ensuring a high-quality experience. • An excellent choice for everyday dining.

Our favorite meal on a recent long weekend visit to the city. The food is authentic Italy. We were with a relatively boisterous group and our waiter rolled with it. He was a lot of fun. The food is truly marvelous.
P Mizell - 3 weeks ago

Superb ambiance, a true feeling of Italian hospitality in a fun way. Loud, welcoming, over the top and even extravagant. The food was great (we had octopus and buratta) but the service was even better. We had a minor inconvenience during our dinner and waiters went out of their way to make up for it and make our dinner memorable (they did not have to).

Nice place with a very good wine list. Food very good, fresh, and perfectly cooked. Comfortable, table correct, and a bit just in space. Tables are too close to each other. I can't give five stars because prices are high and speaking about wine absolutely out of order.
Luciano Albo - a week ago

A beautiful classic Italian restaurant, I would say this is a hidden Gem: delicious food, extraordinary attention, excellent wine selection & cocktails. I loved it!

The food was good. I tried the Sunny bowl and was surprised at first by the presentation and second by the flavor. Everything worked so well together and each bite just got better and better. They have nice things in the menu for kids and adults. I would love to bring my kids to try the mini pancakes. They definitely looked amazing.

I stopped in here for the third time at the 370 lexington avenue location on the way to an eye doctors appointment next door I grabbed a French cream donut after seeing it on their advertisement outside looked so delicious I had to grab one!!. Last time I came here on my 2nd visit I had a chocolate muffin with a medium coffee which was also delicious!!. Service is fast as well!. Oh yeah the hot chocolate Definitely goes well with the French cream donut!!

I purchased only French donut ( a large bun with sweet cream filling ). It was tasty, but was not worth $7. It was a bit too heavy for my taste. I was also waiting for Too Good To Go order while there, but something glitched (not sure if it was cafe or the app fault) and I left without it.

I had a cold brew and the toasted ham and gruyere croissant with egg all were excellant. Only comment is a little more dressing on the accompanying salad. Food and drinks came out quick Not crowded at all.

The food was terrific! Came here for lunch/brunch today and the food was fabulous - I went with the eggs benedict and the home fries are crisped to perfection, the english muffin toasted and buttered to everyone's delight, and the brioche french toast was light and airy with the freshest berries! The service was wonderful and the atmosphere incredibly cozy - the host was kind and welcoming and our server, Pete, was great! The coat check was a nice plus for a blustery day. Well definitely be coming back here!

Fantastic food with a great atmosphere. I got the double cheeseburger with bacon and enjoyed it. Truffle upgrade on the fries was worth it. Two ice cold pilsners went down smooth.

Stumbled in here for solo brunch. Has an adorable tea time vibe with natural light from above. Simple yet well-rounded menu and quality / details of the food makes everything feel elevated. Will definitely be back. Cute for girlfriends or date brunch or even solo! Also the wine list is excellent. 💕

Impressed how big the servings were here. The endive salad and Thai mulles frites were both stand outs. Great spot to grab a weekend lunch. Come hungry.
Dave Capra - 2 months ago

Had the steak and frites. Asked for it to be medium rare and it was definitely more rare than expected. I thought it was a great portion size but it was on the saltier side for sure. We were asked to leave even though we’d been there less than two hours. But, it was odd because nobody was lined up waiting for another table. Service was pretty great, and the restaurant was cute!

Cozy ambiance with a simple yet well balanced menu. Three great options for mussels. Service is fast. The best dish was the Beet (not beef, beet) Tartare!

Overall an enjoyable time at Le Charlot. The service was a bit slow and quite loud indoors which we find typical with French restaurants. We enjoyed the appetizers more than the main courses, which we found to be a bit underwhelming. Overall a good restaurant for drinks and intimidate family meals.

We enjoyed our experience and would love to go back, the people that took our order and assisted us were so kind and went above and beyond to ensure everything was right and that our table was clean. We felt so good and had the best bagels ever! Thank you so much 💓

love this place for a quick breakfast. my go to is a turkey bacon, egg, and cheddar cheese pumpernickel bagel. pricier than your average deli but it’s worth the treat. employees are sweet and helpful.
Hadeel Abuktaish - 2 months ago

Good bagels. The service is quick and polite unlike many other bagel shops. The bagels were not as crisp on the outside, but still tasted good. The strawberry cream cheese is delicious. The Funky Monkey smoothie is amazing and a must have. There are a few tables inside to sit. A good place to hangout in the morning.
Prasad Nair - 2 years ago

This is a sophisticated, cool and calm Bagel place. A lot of options and the service is quick without being in a hurry which I loved. I enjoyed my morning breakfast here in the indoor seating. They have soft bagels with lot of fresh juice, shakes and coffee options. Loved it! 👍🏼
sharanya chandran - 2 years ago

Fantastic breakfast place! A lot of options and a lot of food for the price you pay! I had an Italian hero sandwich! 🥪 Nice ambiance, clean and neat. The personnel is very friendly and polite. The place in itself is kinda small but still spacious so you could sit in there and have a meal.

Overcharged me for something I didn’t order and refused to give refund. I disputed with my credit card proof and they asked me to get a drink which I didn’t want so they don’t have to refund me. I ended up having to pay more for an overpriced drink.

Hunter Delicatessen is a great option for students since it offers a discount for them, even though the prices can be a bit high compared to other places. Despite that, the ingredients look fresh and of good quality, and the food is good. The staff could honestly be better.
LlamaStudio! - a year ago

I ordered something for $6.45. The cashier rings me up for $9.29 and I didn’t pay attention so I just paid w Apple Pay. And then I was like wait why is it $9, isn’t it like $6? Thought there was clearly a mistake and they thought I ordered a bigger platter. Then her manager came over and said it was different prices for credit card and also different on the menu. I felt belittled by her tone and it was very sneaky. Update your menu Apart from this, cooking staff were very nice. Food was just okay
Hayley Matthews - 2 months ago

Bought a sandwich that was listed to have "di parma, mortadella, soppressata, hot cappa, fresh basil, aged provolone and Italian dressing in tomato focaccia", and I got a room temperature ham and cheese on cheap flatbread. No basil, no dressing, just ham and cheese. Then a few weeks later I got a lox bagel, menu said $12, I was charged $16. Please update your menu.
Anes Jadadic - 2 months ago

I love this place, good price, delicious. I would love to give 5 stars. But today I buy 7 breakfast platter, each has 2 egg, some bacon, 2 hash brown, and French toast. I paid $113+ in cash. It means each one is $16.2 after tax and cash discounts. Their lunch is only $10.8…for 1 meat and 2 sides. There must be something wrong with my receipt lol. Sadly I lost my receipt and cannot go back. I strongly suggest they change their menu. It’s too old, hard to read, and no price on menu. Price can be more transparent. Hunter college students are the new generation. You will have more business from them if you update some of the store. If the owner see this review today and still remember me, please recalculate the price for me lol. I will go back to take a refund if there is something wrong and change it to five star lol. I will buy only the lunch if the $16+ for breakfast platter is correct….

PRETTY GOOD….PIZZA 😋 For those familiar with my work, it’s common knowledge that I like stuffing my face with pizza. I mean who doesn’t but I REALLY enjoy a mouthful of Za. That’s what led me to Mariella Pizza. Certainly not the best pizza on Earth (that’s for italy) but certainly nothing to complain about. I like it. I ordered 2 slices and sat next to some NYPD Police Officers. There were plenty of open seats but I wanted to be safe 👮‍♂️ THANK YOU PIZZA MAN 👨
Parker Uber - 2 weeks ago

First timer for a cheese slice. Always check how they do a plain cheese slice because if they mess that up just keep walking. The slice I had literally came out of the oven as I walked in. Tasty, solid three star Manhattan pizza. Nothing special, but nothing wrong with it. Lots of room in the back to sit down. Pretty clean place.
Joe Masucci - a year ago

This is a nice little clean pizzeria in the upper east side. I like coming here when I feel nostalgic as I used to eat at Mariellas when they were across the street from Bloomingdales years ago. I wouldn't give the pizza a 10 out of 10 but it's an excellent and tasty slice. I also enjoy their house salad with chicken. A bit pricey but tasty. Service is fast and friendly.

$4 is high for this one. This is basically a slice of grilled cheese. And burned on the bottom to boot. Medium thin, chewy crust, with a crispy, airy edge and good flavor. Kind of dry though. You need something to drink with this. Can't tell you what kind of seasoning is in the sauce, because I can't find any. In fact, can't taste any sauce whatsoever. This slice is... Okay. Give it a rating of 83.

7/24/21. On the way to Central Park, I delighted myself and friends to the meatball parmigiana!! THE BEST!! 3 hrs later it was still warm, to sink your teeth through the toasted crusted bread is the purpose of teeth!! The cheese makes my taste buds sing!! Always a delight!! 12/1/20, THE BEST meatball parmigiana sandwich Ever !! the bread is toasty, the cheese melts around into the marinara sauce that's surrounds the juicy MEATBALLS, How DELICIOUS!!

A very traditional deli in NYC, located in the 3rd Avenue. The place is small, but you can choose between seating on a table or over the balcony. There are several options in the menu, but the corned beef and the pastrami seem to be the most ordered. I've had the corned beef sandwich - it was only bread and the meat - and it was ok.

First timer at this deli. Ordered the corned beef and swiss on a hardroll with the deli mustard. It was good and hot but I ended up saving it for the next day at lunch. I was a bit worried about that but I was too full from bagels that morning. The sandwhich was the BEST corned beef I've ever had. Very impressed with the taste and freshness of everything. Simply excellent.
