Hell’s Kitchen Local

Of course, it's the closest to me, the service is very good and they have a ridiculous selection of pizza choices (among other offerings) - though I tend to get my favorite, their Margarita pizza.

UT47 mixes Korean and American food in the best way. It’s cozy, stylish, and perfect for brunch or a chill lunch, their happy hour special is so good and is worth every dollar. They have great coffee and bubble tea too. Honestly, it’s one of those places that feels like a little hidden gem in the middle of the city, especially their new location on 9th Ave!

It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite spots. The tacos are so good — and the margaritas? Truly the best. It’s the perfect place to unwind, grab a bite and enjoy the vibe.

Great seasonal menu and all NY wines as well. They were a lifesaver during the pandemic, delivering brick-oven pizza (still on the menu — delish). They also have fun special events and pairings throughout the year.

Have you even been to Hell’s Kitchen if you haven’t had dinner at Arriba Arriba? The Mama Marg is calling your name!!

My youngest son’s favorite quick stop to grab a slice or two to go.

I have always loved the various Delphinium Home shops. The owners are great guys and I love having independently owned businesses in the neighborhood. Great place to find a last-minute gift or card.

My husband Bobby runs this theater company, The Actor’s Gym, there every Thursday.

My absolute favorite Sunday afternoon activity in the summer is posting up outside Tacuba, going to town on the steak nachos, sipping a frozen strawberry margarita and hanging with my friends while we people-watch on Queens Boulevard aka 9th Avenue.

Planet Taco is good at 5pm and its great at 2am. I’m from Texas so I love a taco and this place never disappoints. They have a variety of salsas that you can top your tacos off with too. Yum!!
