Favorite Restaurants Among the Locals – Volume I
One of our favorite parts of a vacation is dining out.
It’s such a treat to indulge in the restaurant scene of another city, and not to mention not having to do the dishes!
New York City offers some of the best and most famous restaurants in the world. From Michelin-rated white tablecloth restaurants to Halal food stands with lines down the block, NYC has a memorable dining experience for you no matter your particular taste.
Yelp and Google will always be helpful resources, but what could be better than endorsements from real locals?
As a locally-owned and operated business, Metro Tours has the most current information about the establishments on our streets.
We pride ourselves on providing our visitors with curated recommendations to ensure they have the best NYC experience possible.
Be sure to get our guide to your hotel’s neighborhood from your tour guide at the end of your tour! Until then, we have rounded up a list of some of our favorite restaurants throughout NYC.
