Our Top Pick
Hill Country Barbecue Market
A Texas meat-market format with live-music energy in Flatiron.
Notable Picks
8.6
A Flatiron Texas-style BBQ market built for line-ordering, butcher-paper trays, and a loud, social room that can handle groups without turning dinner into a logistical mess. The best move is to go brisket-forward, add one sausage for snap, and let the sides do the comfort-work while the bar and live-music energy carry the night.
Must-Try Dishes:
Moist brisket by the pound, Jalapeño cheddar sausage, Longhorn cheddar mac & cheese
What makes it special: A Texas meat-market format with live-music energy in Flatiron.
#2
Upland
8.4
A polished Park Avenue South New American room that’s strongest when you order in a tight, shareable arc—one bright starter, one pasta, then a main that anchors the table. It’s a reliable “bring anyone” restaurant with enough energy for nights out and enough comfort for repeat dinners.
Must-Try Dishes:
Cacio e pepe, Little gem salad, Sausage and kale pizza
What makes it special: A crowd-pleasing New American menu that rewards tight, shareable ordering.
#3
Diner 24
8.2
A bright, modern 24/7-style diner built for after-hours cravings, where the burger lane works best when you want speed, salt, and consistency more than atmosphere. Order the burger hot, add one side that travels well, and keep the meal clean and efficient.
Must-Try Dishes:
12oz Double Smash Cheeseburger, 12oz Double Smash Bacon Cheeseburger, Single Smash Burger
What makes it special: A true 24-hour smash-burger option in the neighborhood.

Instagram Worthy Wonders
A big, modern American room near Madison Square Park where ribs are a long-cook special: beef ribs with a sweet-heat rub and steakhouse-adjacent sides. The best experience is treating it like a composed entrée—ribs plus one crisp counterbalance—rather than stacking heavy add-ons.
Must-Try Dishes:
Eight-Hour BBQ Beef Ribs, BLACKBARN Burger, Mushroom Ravioli
What makes it special: Slow-cooked beef ribs with a chipotle-orange rub in a big-room setting.
8.1
A true all-hours diner where the late-night burger is less about hype and more about reliability—hot griddle, fast turnaround, and the comfort of knowing you can still get a real meal. Keep it classic, add soup if you’re ordering after midnight, and leave room for something sweet.
Must-Try Dishes:
Buffalo wings, Mozzarella sticks, Breakfast platter (late-night classic)
What makes it special: All-hours diner wings when everything else is closed.
Worthy Picks
7.9
A Gramercy Irish pub where the burger plays best as a hearty, beer-friendly anchor rather than a chef-y statement. The room is built for long hangs, so order the burger while you’re fresh, then let the pub rhythm take over.
Must-Try Dishes:
Molly's 10oz Burger, Shepherd's Pie, Fish & Chips
What makes it special: A classic pub burger in a true Gramercy tavern setting.
7.7
An upscale-leaning sports bar that works for late-night burgers when you want TVs, steady drinks, and a menu that can handle a group. The burger play here is context-driven: order something sturdy that holds up in a loud room, and don’t overcomplicate the table.
Must-Try Dishes:
Burger, Wings or shareable apps, Fries
What makes it special: Late-night burgers with an upscale sports-bar setup.
#8
Ampersand
7.6
A cocktail-first New American bar that works best as a “drinks plus a few smart bites” mission rather than a full dinner substitute. The room is built for conversation and repeat visits, especially when you stick to the bar’s strongest lane: well-made cocktails and snackable plates.
Must-Try Dishes:
Lamb burger, Fish tacos, Deviled eggs
What makes it special: A cocktail bar where the food is good enough to justify staying awhile.
