From classics to new, quintessentially New York patties.

It’s hard to succinctly summarize what happened in New York City’s dining scene in 2017.

Mojeaux’s Louisiana Drinkery offers up a great beer selection, awesome cocktails (including the Bloody Mojeaux, with shrimp an burgers on it!), and delicious wings & waffles.

Gadsby’s Tavern, which opened in the late 1790s (!), is known for being a President fan-favorite (including Washington and Jefferson!).

Meats & Foods, from the people behind 13th St Meats, functions as a retail shop and restaurant combination on Florida Ave. On offer are a variety of handmade sausages, chili, soups, and, of course, sandwiches like the lemon-basil chicken sandwich, garlic pork sandwich, and roasted poblano sandwich in an intimate setting that’s enclosed by white tiled walls and lit by incandescent bulbs.

Resting on the ninth floor of Barney's, Fred's offers classic, upscale American food like lobster clubs and tuna tartare, in addition to an impressive brunch menu.

The third New York location of Barcade, located on St. Mark's, trades in '80s arcade games for (far better) '90s ones.

Open since 1999, Artie's pays homage to legendary restaurateur Artie Cutler (of Carmine's, Docks, Ollie's, Virgils, Gabriela's, Jake's, Columbia Bagel's).

This Kosher deli in Rego Park offers up one of the best pastrami sandwiches in New York.

This Forest Hills Chinese serves mindblowingly good dim sum and a laundry list of authentic Cantonese fare.

At Sun Hing Lung Co., you can expect some of the best rice noodle rolls in Chinatown.

This Flushing spot specializes in northern Chinese delicacies from Dongbei, which means spicy and over-the-top dishes that you won't find anywhere else in the city and probably haven't tasted before.
