City Island, The Bronx as well as all of the other boroughs in NYC enjoys the status of having some of the best restaurants in the United States to — who else? — New York City. This is a no-brainer when you consider that NYC has more than 23,000 restaurants.
New York is tops for sheer variety of dining options. This melting pot of a city offers every kind of ethnic cuisine from the most excellent Spanish Restaurants, Seafood Dining, Jewish Delis and Dim Sum Cafeterias, to Falafel stands and Pizza joints in nearly each and every neighborhood.
But it’s not just affordable down-home ethnic fare that makes New York a famous food destination. The Big Apple is just as famous for its high quality — and high-priced — foods. Some of the culinary world’s biggest names helm the top establishments, turning out food that sets the standard of culinary excellence in restaurants like Le Bernardin, The Russian Tea Room, Delmonico’s, and Le Cirque. No other city in the world is home to so many big-name and super fine dining destinations. I am getting hungry again!
