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

While did not intend to walk in, my friend and I came in as we strolled down the block, we looked at the menu outside and said let's try it and so we did. As we were seated, we were greeted with kind customer service and also bag check which was appreciated since the space can be on the tighter side. The food was relatively good but pricing and proportions could have been better. What my friend and I believed to be worth it, was definitely the fries. For $10 you are getting your money and size worth, truly hard to put down. For the mediterranean plate, it was alright but we did enjoy it. The chicken shawarma could have been presented better and although we were aware sauce is an added cost, I do think in order to bring out the true flavors of a good shawarma, then you do need a sauce. Otherwise, it is lacking. Overall, if you're looking for vibes, this could be a good consideration! They do have a very nice dining area. Overall, this is my opinion at the end of the day, each person has their own tastes.

Seriously one of the best meals I’ve had in New York. From start to finish, everything was fabulous. I was seated quickly outside and was treated to a fun thunderstorm as I enjoyed the tasty dishes. All were brought within perfect timing of one another. The waiter was attentive and chill. His suggestions were perfect. You’ll have just enough without feeling overly stuffed. Portions were generous. An array of Mediterranean goodness awaits you. Their lamb/beef is so tender and favorable. The whipped feta and nut spread had a great sharp taste along w the harissa sauce. Fresh pita will be abundant for the duration of the meal, rest assured. I really liked the stuff Squash blossoms, very nice lemon flavored stuffing. The falafels ofc were the highlight, bright green, crispy and sauce was fire. Seriously a great end to a first day of my little vacation.

If you are looking for an amazing meal in Manhattan, Shuka is a must-visit. We treated ourselves to a glass of Cava and a spread of the Feta Tomato Salad, Shawarma, and Shakshuka. The balance of flavors was just perfect and truly some of the absolute best Mediterranean food out there. Everything was so good, and we will definitely be return!!!

The food and vibe here is soooo delicious. And before I get started with the food- let me tell you the service here is amazing. Priscilla took our order, and she is the sweetest person ever. We got Whipped feta + pistachio and Besarra from dips- it was just very creamy and delicious. My personal favourite is Whipped feta and pistachio. We ordered Falafel - this is not your ordinary falafel, it is so crispy and yet so soft from the inside. PERFECT consistency The Cherry on the cake was -Citrus Carpaccio. Oh my god - this was the best dish ever, I never had fruits taste so good in a Mediterranean setup. This was suggested by Priscilla and I am so thankful of her to suggest me such an amazing dish. Food - 10/10 Service -10/10 Overall - A MUST VISIT !!!!

Shuka is, quite simply, excellent. Located along a quieter stretch of MacDougal Street, it feels like a place meant to be discovered rather than advertised, one whose reputation is built organically through the steady chorus of glowing reviews that, once visited, prove entirely justified. The space itself is modest in its decor yet warmly arranged, creating an atmosphere that invites lingering. There is an ease to the room, a sense of calm enjoyment that encourages conversation and unhurried dining. The menu is best approached in a spirit of sharing. Portions are thoughtfully sized, making it easy to sample a variety of dishes and appreciate the breadth of flavors on offer. Each plate reveals a careful balance—vibrant, satisfying, and clearly composed with intention. The wine list complements the kitchen well, offering selections that pair seamlessly with the cuisine. The staff is another strong point: attentive, warm, and genuinely friendly, adding to the overall sense of hospitality that defines the experience. Shuka is a place I would readily recommend, an inviting, flavor-driven restaurant that rewards both curiosity and return visits.

Stopped by The Dutch close to last call and ordered the fried chicken and the burger. I’d read quite a few good reviews beforehand, and the food definitely lived up to the reputation. The fried chicken, which I believe is one of their signature dishes, was excellent — perfectly crispy on the outside while the meat stayed juicy and flavorful. Definitely something I’d come back for. The burger was also very well done. I ordered it medium and enjoyed it, although next time I’d probably go medium-rare. The wine list was another highlight for me. It leans toward New World wines, and I was especially happy to find a 2016 Element Syrah from the Finger Lakes for $99 — a great find and a very pleasant surprise to see on the list. Even arriving late, both the food and wine made a strong impression. Looking forward to coming back with a little more time and exploring more of the menu.

Came for an early dinner on a Monday, so it wasn’t crowded. We were seated promptly, and our waiter came over within minutes. The drinks were good—I got a cucumber lemon drink (I forget the name), but it was refreshing. The carpaccio was delicious and well-balanced. The food came out promptly, the steak was perfectly cooked, and the fries were crisp and well-seasoned. The fried rice was good, just missing a little flavor in my opinion. Overall, it was a solid meal, I would definitely recommend

The vibe in here was awesome, it had dim lightning and felt intimate. The food was all right, I got the burger, but it was nothing special! But still very high-quality. I highly recommend getting the strawberry doughnut if you come for brunch time. It was my favorite out of the wholemeal!

Sat at the bar for a late lunch. Shared a turkey sandwich which my boyfriend previously remembered as one of the best of his lives from some time back. This time unfortunately he was hugely disappointed. I thought the sandwich was fine, but definitely wouldn't say it was anywhere near the best. Also shared a watermelon salad which was great. Ripe watermelon and generous amount. Due to the time we were there, the place was fairly empty, but the manager put a projector onto the wall to show the upcoming world cup soccer game and I thought that was pretty cool. Bartender was attentive.

Always wanted to stop by here and finally did. We ordered some oysters which were fresh and delicious, lobster pasta was amazing with plenty of lobster, tuna carpaccio so good and fried chicken was the best part of the meal! So worth it, can’t wait to come back

We stumbled upon Aria’s Wine Bar while exploring the area and looking for a place to eat without a reservation. To our luck, they were able to seat us outside right away. It didn’t seem like there was any issue getting outdoor seating—perhaps because it was late October and a bit chilly—but we didn’t mind at all. The staff were incredibly accommodating and attentive to every table. Our waiter (I wish I could remember his name!) was especially wonderful. He was friendly, helpful, and full of great recommendations. We told him we wanted to enjoy some drinks and small plates, and he guided us perfectly. We ended up ordering all of his suggestions, and every dish was fantastic. The fried calamari was crisp, perfectly seasoned, and had great texture. The prosciutto with burrata drizzled in truffle oil was rich and flavorful. And to finish, the tiramisu was heavenly—soft, creamy, and exactly what I was hoping for. For drinks, my wife enjoyed a glass of wine, and I had a refreshing mojito—both were excellent complements to our meal. Overall, we had such a lovely experience and can’t wait to return to try the main dishes next time. Thank you, Aria’s Wine Bar, for a delicious and memorable evening!

Absolutely love this place. If you can’t find a table, try their sister restaurant around the corner. Such a cozy vibe instead with great specials. We started off with the goat cheese and tomato sauce and the meatballs. Both were killer and I’d order them again. For starters, we had the risotto of the day which was mushroom and Parmesan risotto, and the penne pasta. Overall fantastic meal with quick service.

I went to this restaurant back in May with a small group of friends only to find when we were going through receipts that I was charged twice for a pizza. I've called in a number of times trying to get a refund for the singular pizza, but I keep getting the "we'll get back to you" response. I don't live in the area and I shouldn't have to pay for something I never recieved. It's truly terrible customer service to not be getting money back when I've notified the restaurant multiple times. Make sure to check your receipts before leaving.

My associate and I were there for a business meeting. The service was very good and quick, we got some appetizers to share for the whole table and then a full main course for each one of us. The filet mignon was very good and also the porterhouse pork chop. Very generous plates. Located in a wonderful neighborhood. Easy to walk.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Market Table has been on Carmine Street since 2007 and there is a reason this place has never needed to reinvent itself — it just gets it right, every single time. From the moment you walk in, the room does something to you. Window seats overlooking the West Village, terracotta pots, candlelight even at lunch, a neighborhood buzzing outside the glass. It feels like New York the way New York is supposed to feel. We ordered through the all-day menu and every single dish came out more impressive than the last. The heirloom tomato salad with cucumber, olives and a green herb dressing sounds simple and looks like art. The nori dish is quietly one of the most elegant things I’ve eaten in this city. The fish over summer corn was perfectly executed — charred skin, sweet vegetables, clean and confident. Then came the chicken. Get the chicken. Crispy skin that shatters, pea risotto underneath, a rich jus pooling around it — this is Chef Mike Price doing what he does best, letting the season speak and not overcomplicating a single thing. It is the kind of dish that makes you put your phone down. Two desserts to finish by candlelight. Both necessary. No regrets. The service is warm without being performative. The cocktail list is considered. The wine list has real personality. And the all-day format means there is genuinely no wrong time to come. If you have been walking past this place for years without going in, stop doing that. Market Table is the real thing.

Great spot with big windows and awesome people watching. The location is perfect and the service was fast without feeling rushed. The burger was amazing. The bacon was perfectly crispy and the fries were well seasoned and super satisfying. We started with the banana bread which was such a nice way to kick things off. My partner ordered the pancakes with the cheesecake filling and absolutely loved them. Overall a really great meal in a great location. Would definitely come back.

I had such a great experience at Market Table! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was as beautiful as it was delicious. I started with a cocktail called Call Me By Your Name, made with Neversink gin, Lillet Blanc, peach, lemon, and jasmine florets. It was light, floral, and perfectly balanced — a refreshing drink that set the tone for the meal. For food, the Gulf Shrimp Tacos were a standout — juicy shrimp with creamy coleslaw, avocado crema, and just the right kick from the Holland chili. The Buttermilk Pancakes with cheesecake filling and blueberry compote were pure comfort — rich, fluffy, and indulgent in the best way. I also tried the Market Breakfast, which came with two eggs, sausage links, home fries, a little salad, and a flaky buttermilk biscuit. Everything was well-seasoned and cooked just right. Overall, Market Table nails both flavor and presentation. It’s the kind of place that works for brunch with friends or a relaxed solo meal. I’ll definitely be back!

Of the Westville branches we've been to this is probably the one we've visited the most. I like that this is in a quiet area and has lots of outdoor seating. As with the other locations the food is consistently good and reasonably priced. It was also the first time we went here for dinner, rather than brunch. The mac and cheese is very decadent and quite a lot of food for an appetizer, so I'd only order it if you're hungry! I think the Butter Chick rice bowl could have done with more sauce for the rice and a little more items. The chicken eggroll wrap was very tasty though.
Denby Liu - 4 months ago

I came here by accident, and after I saw they had a a maple bacon bourbon old fashioned I stayed to relish inside. The decor is clean chic, and open . The white plays well with the menu and from the outside I thought it was a fru fru vegan spot. It has some healthy options but I stuck with hotdogs with truffle fries ( An extra cost of a dollar ) and a stiff drink or two. It's intimate on the other side of restaurant for a party of 2 or 4. Great place to relax, and enjoy the vibe.
Mookie - 11 months ago

My friend and I came across this place on a Sunday evening. The hostess seated us right away. We ordered the Birria empanadas for starters - so good! For our entrees, I ordered the market plate: salmon with asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes, and my friend ordered the market plate: salmon teriyaki with Brussels sprouts and garlic mashed potatoes. We weren’t too pleased with the salmon (tasted a little too fishy for our liking and was very bland); however, our veggies were pretty good. I don’t think I’d order the salmon again - I’d try another type of protein. Overall, this place was good. The staff were very attentive and quick, which we appreciated. I’d give this place another shot and order a different dish.

The customer service here from Ali and the team are unmatched! We placed a large group order via Uber eats and the driver unfortunately messed up our order. Without giving us the run around, Westville corrected the mix up and had it delivered promptly via their own courier! The food was great, fresh, and delicious :). Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something healthy and reasonably priced.

Me and my girlfriends went out for a dinner before the asian film festival movie. Food was great we did the happy hour, the service was topnotch. They gave out free chocolate pudding dessert and this cute fortune teller miracle fish, it was fun.
cath29 - 2 months ago

We made a reservation because we read the reviews on Google Maps, and we were not disappointed. The service was very friendly, attentive and welcoming. The Bloody Mary was delicious and they also have a good bar. To start, we ordered a dozen oysters, which were very fresh, and a good size. We ordered small portions of clam chowder, which was very good. I ordered the mac & cheese with lobster, which, despite not being considered a main course, was more than enough for an adult. My husband ordered the fish and chips, which was also very tasty. And to finish, they gave us dessert on the house. I recommend it.

This is a great spot for watching world cup or other sports matches. The screens are huge but not the clearest, but you get great game sound and sometimes a DJ or good music during commercial breaks. Happy Hour deals are amazing and the food is reallly reallly good for bar type food. Recommend coming with your full party and getting in early because most the benches are first come first serve. We encounters no lines for a match and then really long ones for knockouts so plan accordingly. Servers are great and attentive. Bathroom situation is fine for guys but ladies expect a wait since there are only a few stalls.

I was here for an Adobe event. The place is nice and gives a cozy and relaxed vibe. The food was ok, unfortunately the menu was not not very GF and dairy free friendly (problems of middle age people 😞) but what I tried was good 👍
Kenia Velasquez - 4 months ago

Great bar for watching games - spacious, cool, designed for big groups to be comfortable at large tables. And the service is surprisingly good for a place so huge and packed. Really fun for World Cup watching and would recommend (though can be a very white, fratty crowd) but I do have to say that the nachos are quite terrible. And you really can’t expect much of bar food, I know, but I beg of this place to focus less on overdone mounds of toppings (and chickpeas ????) and more on having actual cheese melted on chips. Barely edible. But overall great place for the very specific vibe I mentioned!
Alabel Chapin - 3 months ago

I went to this bar for the first time this week and enjoyed it immensely. The atmosphere and drinks while watching the basketball finals was electric. But the evening would not have been complete without the amazing service throughout the night by our server, Leo. He treated us like we were a guest in his home. It is a refreshing change to experience a server genuinely wanting to please and treat our group like people and not a number. I am looking forward to going back and having him give us the same " welcome to my home" experience. My compliments to the entire staff. Keep up the great work

Cute little date spot with some delicious food options to pair with their extensive global wine list. The food menu blew us away, we loved everything we tried — highly recommend the Polenta, the Octopus with potato salad, Iberico selection, pan de queso with honey butter and the beignets with toasted fennel
Adam Giladi - 9 months ago

I was telling my wine friend that he needs to come here because out of all of the "wine bars" I've come across in the city, Lelabar has the most unique and interesting set of wines I've personally seen. And that's just by the glass. Apparently there's a whole other bottle list I'll have to come back to try. It's busy and lively, so prepare to be crammed into the small space, but don't expect to be disappointed. The charcuteries are next level.

Really nice wine bar, large variety of charcuterie, very good service, reasonably priced. We had such a lovely time on a Saturday night, it was busy but not too busy. The counter sitting elevates the experience and I would totally recommend it.
Christina D - a year ago

The best wine bar in the West Village, a true neighborhood gem with an impeccably curated wine list and every bottle somehow feels like the perfect choice. The team is warm, knowledgeable, and led by real wine expertise without a hint of pretension. Come for a glass, stay for a bottle, and enjoy delicious food too. So grateful to have a place this special in the neighborhood. Highly recommend.

I had to wait in the area for 2 hours and decided to get breakfast. Place was ranking pretty high on Google and wanted to give it a try. Ordered egg Benedict, muffin was very good but salmon was too salty and was not as great sauce. Cheese cake did not feel fresh. Service was not so friendly, 2 people were servicing this place as it was not busy, did not feel any extra warmest or even professional care. I waited for my order for a long time, they would not ask if I want water refill or anything. Atmosphere is good and serve the highest rating, nice design, especially liked downstairs room. Would not come back and would not recommend.
Vitaliia Stefurak - 2 months ago

A lovely experience. Even on a weekday lunch, the place was more than half full. The service really stood out. Our server was incredibly kind and attentive. The food was good, though a bit salty for my taste. We were celebrating a friend’s birthday, and the staff kindly brought out a pastry with a candle, which was a very thoughtful touch. I would definitely come back.

I chose Hudson Clearwater because they have a few vegan offerings on their menu. My vegan friend had the vegan lasagna and the rest of us had the sea bass. For dessert they had a vegan apple tart with coconut ice cream. The food and service was good but the portions were quite small. Reservations are a must; by the time we left there was not an empty table in the house.

we ordered the huevos rancheros, berry smoothie and ricotta pancakes. the eggs could’ve had more flavor to be honest but it was good. the fries were soft/not crunchy, overall it was an okay experience. for its price point i expected better.

I recommend sitting outside when it's sunny -- drinks (or a bottle) with a few apps? Sign me up. There's a beautiful outdoor area in the back of the restaurant (and of course their street seating), but don't let that distract you from the great vibes inside! Lit candles replace the mini vases filled with wildflowers for a warm ambience. Brunch is served until 4:30. Bar snacks from 4:30-5 and dinner from 5 onwards. I made a day-of reservation Sunday for 4PM and there were a ton of reservations left. I tried walking in on a sunny Saturday another time and it was only a 15 minute wait -- you can just put your number down and mosey around the area.

Delicious pizza but expensive. Lunch for 2 was $111. We ordered a family style pizza and 2 sangria. I honestly thought the sangria was pure juice. I barely tasted wine in it. The restaurant is lovely. Wood fired pizza. Thin crust. Great ingredients. Beautiful dishes. Great decor. Good service. This is a tiny restaurant by the way.

Came here with a small group then with a very large group and both times the food and service was top notch. The pizza was thin, crispy and delicious. Had a savory sauce just how I like it and the coal fire oven brought it over the top. I also had their pasta which was excellent! This may be my new favorite NYC pizza/restaurant spot!!
Taste Bud - 8 months ago

A notably fun spot for a large group. We celebrated my friend’s birthday here with a 20 person reservation and had a blast. The staff were friendly and helpful but SLOW. Understand it’s a big group but we didn’t get our food until 1.5 hours in. Still would give 5 stars because their pizza is phenomenal! Perfect ratios of sauce to cheese to toppings with thin fluffy dough. Lastly, we did BYOB wine but they charge a $20 corking fee or require purchase of their prefix menu which we were not made aware of prior.
