Hell’s Kitchen Local

Great for pre- or post-theater — a no-frills New York theater hotspot. You'll probably rub elbows with a Broadway darling.

38 screens? Right across the street? And I’m in Film!? Come on! Hog heaven!

I love Alcone for all things makeup. They have everything you could possibly need for stage or every day.  I sometimes drop in on my way to the theater see what’s new or to grab a product I’m out of, and everyone that works there is so kind and extremely knowledgeable! 

My friends and I love A-Side for a post show pizza, chicken parm or pasta. Great atmosphere and great food right on 9th Avenue

The best soup dumplings in the area. It’s a delight to have a high-quality spot for takeout dumplings that consistently brings me joy.

A grocery store — mostly in the basement — an incredible selection of products, many are Latino oriented. Canned products, spices, proteins, prepared foods.

A superlative place to spend an evening, watch an eclipse, or enjoy gorgeous views of the river. Such a treasure to have!

The guys in there are so knowledgeable about fixing anything that your super ‘will get to next week.’ And they never ran out of toilet paper during the pandemic.

The cutest pet store! Stritch and I often pop in here on our walks to grab his treats or a cute sweater for winter — they have a great selection. 

I support my neighborhood pharmacy and get my prescriptions filled there, plus flu and COVID shots. Super friendly and eager to help.
