Top 7 Midtown Restaurants

By Heather Cross, About.com

While much of midtown seems to be a tough place to get a decent bite to eat, I'm sure you will find a midtown restaurant that suits your needs.

1. The Bull & Bear at the Waldorf-Astoria

Looking for the best steak in town? Try the newest high-grade meat at Waldorf=Astoria's Bull and Bear at Lexington Avenue at 49th Street.

2. Little Yokohama

Little Yokohama is a great place to grab a bite to eat if you're looking to avoid tourist traps and overpriced meals in Times Square and the Theater District. The simple Japanese noodle shop offers generous servings of soup at prices anyone can afford.

3. Sushi Yasuda

Often touted as the best sushi in New York City, Sushi Yasuda has a lot to live up to, but manages quite successfully. The fish is first-rate and there are few other places in the city that offer the variety of fish that Sushi Yasuda does.

4. Hallo Berlin

Hallo Berlin is an affordable place to fill up on beer and wursts in West Midtown. They've recreated a German Beergarden indoors, so even in cold weather, you can enjoy a taste of summer.

5. West Side Sushi

From the owners of Jeollado and Sandobe, West Side Sushi offers a similarly extensive selection of maki on 9th Avenue. It's a great place to grab some affordable sushi before the theater or at lunchtime.

6. Chola

If you’re looking for a sumptuous buffet lunch of some of the finest North Indian cooking New York City has to offer, Chola is a great choice.

7. Angus McIndoe

Combining quality food and a convenient theater district location, Angus McIndoe offers a pleasant respite from the typically overpriced, underwhelming area offerings.
