For the first visit and not pictured, we got the aged rib eye for 2. It was surprisingly good and flavorful. The applewood smoked slab of bacon was thick and tasty. For 2 people, it’s enough to just get 1. The prime rib on the bone was super thick and good. Like Keen’s, this is a monster and can probably be shared by 2 people. I would say the thickness of this was probably close to 1.

This is located in the backside of Chelsea Market along 14th Street. Basically walk towards Tippler, and it’d be on your right side. Can’t really miss it. It seems to be a semi-throwback to Baja style fish tacos. I got shrimp ceviche, 2 fish tacos, and 1 spicy shrimp taco. I wanted the fish ceviche, but they were out for whatever reason. The shrimp ceviche was pretty good, although I’m not too much of a fan of it being put on a big tostada shell.

This is a relatively new spot that has opened up in the last couple months. The pork buns were surprisingly decent. I think they were a little expensive for each as is most Manhattan foods, but it was good. What was interesting to me was lobster ramen. It had miso flavored soup broth and of course lobster meat with shells. They gave a shell cracker on the side, and they definitely did not skimp on the meat.

Pretty bad and expensive. 10 pieces of bites fro $14, and it doesn’t even come with a drink.

Their pho + banhmi combo $12.50 is OK for lunch.

New York strip was so so. Cream of spinach was not good. There were lots of tendons in the meat. The lava cake dessert was good though.

Good tom yum noodle soup for lunch. Actually pretty good overall pad thai and pad see ew staples.

Spanish stuff. Cheap decent lunch.

This used to be in the Lower East Side, but I guess they set up shop in this Gansevoort Market area. It wasn’t that good. I prefer the A Salt & Battery place instead.

Got the soft shell poboy. Was decent for lunch. $17 for fries, drink, and a poboy. The normal stuff is rather expensive. Probably a $2-3 per pound markup compared to LA.
