NYC Food Guide - 13 Must Hit Places to Eat in New York City

[@gr1mm-r]

A real New Yorker knows you gotta go to the small unknown places

[@mpessan]

What are they?

[@gr1mm-r]

Spunkys, Tony’s

[@gr1mm-r]

Fish place and a pizza spot

[@gr1mm-r]

Jorel Boston ya near the Dunkin’ Donuts great pizza

[@gravel_slope]

that is only 101 experienced traveler

[@BradMarcus]

The fact that you stated the video at DiFara made me love it immediately. I've known Dom for over 45 years and his pizza is without question the best pizza I've ever had. I go for the sausage, pepper and onion. Add mushrooms to make it a "DiFara Special". Cash only! As for bagels, my place is Ess-a-Bagel on 1st Ave and 20th, but no knock on Absolute. Well done!!

[@cassandramarie1987]

Everytime I watch your videos I wonder HOW you don’t have a travel tv series yet. You do such a great job from every aspect. 👏🏼

[@MattsTravelTips]

Cassandra Marie Thank you so much! I really appreciate it:) All the best, M

[@zzzarkka]

Because it’s creatively better than having an “official” TV series with suites and executives pushing content for profit.

[@userunavailable9976]

Thx I live in New York never noticed these

[@meghanjones1526]

Why does this man look like shaggy from scooby doo

[@bobjersey]

My first impression was a mix of Hugh Grant and Conan O'Brien, but your evaluation is waaaaay better!

[@b3z18]

I don't see it

[@sergiomorales7705]

He looks like the drug dealer from Pulp Fiction...

[@oliviak3287]

Meghan Jones Was he freaks me out

[@jesuslovesyou6323]

Lol, Shaggy is portrayed by Matthew Lillard, and his name is Matt 😂

[@mercedeswilkins5566]

New york city is one of the best city with the best food.

[@camphotoslive]

Love that your stomach leads you all over the world! I am the same way. Food teaches you so much about a culture. I am have been to NYC a million times for business and find a way to eat something new and great EVERY TIME. I can't believe I've never had any of your recommendations. I think your bagel suggestion at 4:00 is going to be a MUST. Here is my tip for you for NYC. Go to Bohemian Spirit Restaurant on the Upper East Side and get the Beef Goulash with Horseradish and Potato Pancakes. It will take you right back to Prague.

[@MattsTravelTips]

camphotoslive Thanks so much for the thoughtful message! I will ABSOLUTELY make it to Bohemian Spirit next time I’m in town. Never been, but I love new places, and I love Prague:) Cheers, - M

[@daradalmau9300]

I travel to NYC 3 times a year. Can’t wait to try some of these places. ...and if you’re in the city in a couple of weeks Matt, come join us.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Dara Dalmau I used to live in NYC, but live in LA now. But have a great trip! Happy eating:) Cheers, M

[@Swanologue]

Thank you so much for this video! We shall tell tales of Totto Ramen back in the UK for years to come. Our wait in -11 temperatures was well worth it!

[@familiadepena2356]

I had the guac burger with sweet potatoes air fries, beet ketchup and lemonade at By Chloe. I loved it!

[@MattsTravelTips]

Josias De Peña Nice!

[@deborahhoehn7545]

Best pizza in NY, Louie and Ernie’s in the Bronx. And their calzones! Yum!

[@MattsTravelTips]

Deborah Hoehn Never been! Thanks for the suggestion! Cheers, M

[@lorenaponce8696]

My favorite seafood is at city island at the bronx.

My wife and I just get back from NYC. Before we went, we watched your video and we are really glad that we did it. We have visited most of the recommended places and I have to say it was great experience. Special mention deserves Totto Ramen and Russ & Daughters, reasonable prices for really delicious food. Thank you Matt, pleas keep posting videos, from now on, we are not going to visit any place before checking, if you have a tips.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Željko Vrdoljak Love comments like this! So glad the video was helpful! More vids coming soon:) All the best, M

[@puspitaesha4191]

You should definitely try getting more food in Queens, I've been living here my whole life and Queens honestly has the best food with all the diversity too

[@MattsTravelTips]

Puspita Esha Yes. Absolutely. I’ve even been thinking about doing a vid specific to Queens. Cheers:) -M

[@puspitaesha4191]

OMG Yes can't wait for that video!!

[@MattsTravelTips]

Puspita Esha Have a few more videos I have planned first, but hopefully I can get to it soon:)

[@joelweiner4798]

Very true..take the # 7 train ( the UN train) and get off Roosevelt Ave for authentic Indian, Bangladesh etc foods and continue on to Main St- last stop for Chinese Foods.

[@krystingrant6292]

Where? I live in Queens

[@scottmcginn2169]

Nice to see a NY video that doesn't just go to the same places

[@MattsTravelTips]

Scott McGinn Thanks! Appreciate it! I get so much crap for leaving off Katz and some other mainstays, but I figured everyone already knew about those, so I went my own direction:) Glad someone appreciates it haha. All the best, M

[@crazytalentedkids9446]

Joe Juniors + Essa Bagel are my absolute faves, I literally grew up in those places when I lived in Manhattan

[@LovelyDancer92]

crazytalentedkids Yes! 🥯 Essa Bagel is amazing

[@johncaimd.3151]

I totally agree with Matt. Of course all the New Yorkers pretty much have their own favorite. But I can testify that cannibal, cosme and xian are must whether you are a New Yorkers or not. Cosme is an incredible place.

[@BusinessAndFitness]

Should have watched this before going to NYC lol

[@Carla-ng2yo]

Just a reason to go back

[@viwer4468]

Ditto.

[@viwer4468]

Carla Taylor Ditto to you as well.

[@adamrhaman5833]

Go again.

[@frankhu130]

just found out this video and need to say, very well made and I really enjoy the style and editing of this video, well done Matt!

[@brian9]

Katz’s Delicatessen, wonder why he left this one off in a city known for its delis lol. Worlds best Pastrami

[@TheBatugan77]

Far overrated. Cut the bullshit.

[@mikejgjg]

this guy saved my New Yorkfood presentation

[@rogeralanis]

That three-shot drink is famous Mexican drink "banderita" (Spanish for little flag) as it resembles the Mexican flag and has tequila in it. :)

[@adamgrass3547]

You should listen to this boy solely cause he went to Di Fara and Absolute bagel. As a local for 20 years I gotta tell you he ain't lying.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Adam Grass YES. Love that you know Absolute. It seems to be more unknown, but they’re the best in town. Thanks for the comment! Cheers, M

[@adamgrass3547]

Matt's Travel Tips dude I happily wait in line for 20 mins every Sunday for an everything with scallion cream cheese and lox. Worth every minute.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Adam Grass Amen man...always worth it.

[@TheNoseyProductions]

Wait did that 1 price of pasta cost $22?!

[@Charlyky]

TheNoseyProductions Right??? I definitely would have been upset with it.

[@lray173]

couldnt agree anymore. as a native new yorker this once great city is overun by these hipsters yuppies or whatever they call themselfs. most of this shit he eats you couldnt give it to me for free. its crazy that almost all of these videos on advised of what to do in nyc are from assholes from butthole nebraska and places like that. i can tell you there are thousand of places in nyc to eat that are great and wont bust your wallet and you dont have to wait all day but i wont because they will invade and fuck it all up.

[@neilyaremchuk6798]

It’s lost on you. Go eat at the Applebees in Time Square or grab a hot dog. These chefs prepare entrees with the highest level ingredients that are local and fresh and you bitch about it. These hipsters bought and refurbished whole neighborhoods and districts and breathed new life into them. No doubt the food scene is good in Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan but would have liked to see him spread it out a little more with something from the Bronx, Harlem, SI and Queens.

[@dingo397]

@giglio33012 Man you are so right....I'm dying laughing. I was in NY 2yrs ago when my father passed away and a lot of the mom&Pop places that served the best food are GONE. I was disappointed, especially with limited time.

[@PilotJirons]

@@lray173 What do you mean once great? New York was a piece of shit until recently.

[@livingcolours1541]

[@MattsTravelTips]

[@_Rockill_]

Katz's Delicatessen was my most memorable meal in NYC and I went there both times I was in NYC.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Renee K Yeah Katz should have made this list:) My mistake. Cheers, M

[@benjaminr6153]

As a New Yorker, if Katz’s was your most memorable meal in NYC, I feel bad for you. I really don’t mean that in a nasty way or as a put-down, it’s just that Katz’s is a tourist trap, it’s hasn’t been truly representative of the traditional Jewish deli since at least the 1950s when the area was still heavily Jewish and there’s just so much better (and dare I say, affordable) food in NYC. Come back and eat better

[@mattguy2998]

I can get 5 chopped cheese sandwiches for the price of one pastrami sandwich.pass

[@1diamondK]

@@benjaminr6153 can you tell me wheres good to get a pastrami sandwich that won't cost a fortune ?

[@benjaminr6153]

jesuiskamila Jay &Lloyd’s Kosher Deli in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn is pretty good and, unlike Katz’s, is an actual kosher deli and in a heavily Jewish area.

[@nooriyakhokha4760]

Matt subscribing to your channel is the best thing I’ve done today it’s put a huge smile on my face and I cannot wait to see your other videos please go somewhere soon and post more

[@MattsTravelTips]

Nooriya Khokha Haha thanks:) More vids coming soon:)

[@fuadearsh7805]

Best pizza in NY goes to Dani's House of Pizza in Kew Gardens, Queens. Anybody who's been there knows that the sauce is God's gift

[@bigtravis6159]

No1 who visits or lives in NYC is going to queens for food no matter how good it is

[@luisrojas3173]

New York is so amazing, that you need more than one video.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Luis Rojas Totally agree. It’s impossible to cover it one vid. Been thinking about doing one for Queens soon. Cheers, M

[@luisrojas3173]

Queens would be a awesome post. We have so many places to try @@MattsTravelTips

[@pengblackgurl]

Actually every Real New Yorker knows you get a bacon egg and cheese for breakfast and a chopped cheese for lunch duh

[@malcolmrobinson9124]

Haji’s Palace bitch leave ya block lol

[@shotokurusu7859]

Haji’s Palace nigga right

[@chrisc.5374]

Born and bred New Yorker, WTF is a chopped cheese?

[@edlacapra7741]

Chris C.i was thinking the same thing. Chopped cheese?

[@JBNyoka]

Haji’s Palace I’m not from NY , I’m actually from the south and I’ve heard of a chop cheese 😭 they looks yummmy

[@xplayman]

Even though I am from NYC your personality and production on these travel videos is just right that I had to watch anyway. Came over from the Bangkok video and couldn't get out of my head that you look like Shaggy.

[@MattsTravelTips]

TechyMark Haha. I get that a lot. I don’t see it, but people seem to:) I’ve decided to take it as a compliment;) Glad you liked the vids. Cheers, M

[@AllTheBeautyThings]

Holy Water! Yes I put everyone on to BBQS

[@bartenderzzz]

Oh hell nah Dallas BBQs? Their drinks are solid but that's MCdonalds for bbq spots. Hometown in BK all day.

[@HorizonMelt]

What a great (and entertaining) video!

[@rblijenbergh]

Hi there Matt, great video! Just pointing out something to you: The Cannibal is not located at 600 11th Ave, but at 111-113 E 29th Street!

[@bigtravis6159]

Those NYC basement spots are hidden gems Went to a place in Chinatown my friend knew about, we sat at a big round table with 5 people we didn’t even know who didn’t speak English Place held exactly 21 people with no room to spare Food was the best ever AWSOME

[@MattsTravelTips]

Big Travis Love it:)

[@bigtravis6159]

Matt's Travel Tips she was right about the food being AWSOME Inexpensive too

[@whiskeyd7]

Places to eat in NYC, and no mention of Katz’s. Or any other places for pastrami.

[@MattsTravelTips]

whiskeyd7 I know:) If I could go back in time, I would definitely add Katz:) Cheers, M

[@Jayla60]

Love your videos. So finely done and informative. Great humor. Try empanada mamas on the West Side.

[@sakeenahm]

This is such a high quality, well made video.

[@laurenb916]

Wonderful video! Those hand pulled noodles, pizza, and egg yolk ravioli will be getting my ass on a plane to New York from Cali ASAP!

[@JeepTJWheelin]

Lombardi's Pizza and Katz's Deli.

[@malekatahcampbell6326]

Right!

[@billycarroll9153]

Jeep Life71 I thought the exact same thing.

[@thestreet9537]

It’s the oldest not the best

[@billycarroll9153]

The Street in NYC, we all have our own favorites. There is no right or wrong answer.. Just a matter of what tastes good to you.

[@joelweiner4798]

Lombardi's sucks and Katz's is overrated. Try Eisenberg's Sandwich Shop at 174 5th ave for pastrami on rye at a better price than Katz's...also, Sarge's Deli is another good option.

[@chalkyciao8105]

Off to NYC in November. Thanks for the tips Matt, great videos.

[@mrjace3]

Moved to NYC from LA and dont really want to go back. Dont get me wrong I do love my LA but NY has so much more to offer. I dont agree with the full list here but I'd like to add to the list Sweet Chix and The Boil. But I'm still learning about NYC and all it has to offer. Cheers!🍻

[@2023awakening]

bayside, and flushing queens has some of the best never talked about places that are fast, healthy, and filling

[@FlavioMarceloSousa35]

Great cheesecake at Majestic Deli, on Broadway. I also loved Magnolia's banana pudding and roasted pork at Wah Fung.

Sugar cane in brooklyn! THE best dinnerplace ever.

[@Gangadin-f5m]

I wanna go there and will order cream bagels looks yummy

[@cj-nyc2057]

I wasn’t going to comment until I saw Cosme on the list ! Give me af break. How much did they pay you ? Cosme has about 4 things on the menu and they’re not memorable. Xian Chinese is basically a fast food restaurant. If you want hand pulled noodles go to Tasty Hand Pulled Noodles in Chinatown on Doyers st. Totto Ramen is as good as you say it is - agreed . .. and how can you mention pizza without mentioning Lombardi’s on Spring st. Or Grimaldi’s.

[@bobsmith6906]

Or New York Noodletown

[@tzvigross4519]

Or Joe's Pizza. The OG

As a New Yorker I can’t help but laugh 🤣🤣 this is NOT NY pizza or NY in general lol. You don’t go to “high end” spots to feel the real NYC, you have to hit The Bronx where the REAL little Italy is. THE best little Italy in NYC. These pizza places in the video are a joke and can’t compare to real NYC pizza joints ✌🏽. None of this screams NEW YORK to me.

[@user-jm8uh9mc5k]

we didnt ask you .

[@ovathere93]

Di Fara is legit. Your right about the other 2

[@chocktalk]

Fun fact about DiFarro's, the owner insists on making the pizza every day. He doesn't permit anyone else to make it. He comes out to work every single day of the week. Also, Russ's and Daughters shop (not cafe which opened later) has been around since 1914. The ownership has passed down from generation to generation.

This is my first time watching one of your videos and it was very well done. Despite the fact that almost all your picks were in Manhattan and I HATE Manhattan and I hate going there, the presentation was very well done and I enjoyed watching it regardless. I live in Queens and we have so many good places to eat here. I always scoff when people talk about how great Manhattan is or how great the food there is. It's overhyped and overpriced.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Angelus13AOV I’ve gotten a lot of comments about Queens. Perhaps I’ll have to do a Queens video at some point too:) Thanks for the comment

[@SDErrico2010]

And I wonder why I’ve always been a pizza snob. My grandparents house was about 3 blocks down Ave. J from Difara. For me this is the pizza I grew up with as a kid starting at maybe 4-5 years old every spring when we’d come down from Maine to visit. The prices may have risen as the hipsters have made it trendy but it’s still the same pie (the Sicilian was actually my favorite) as it’s always been.

[@MattsTravelTips]

Scott D'Errico Yep. More crowds, but the pizza is still pure magic. Cheers, M

[@raphaelrau1728]

Shaggy didn’t curse so much! He needs to cut that from his videos.
