The Eclectic Cuisine of New York City: Midtown Manhattan Restaurants & More

New York City is known for its outstanding cuisine, and you'll find Midtown Manhattan restaurants live up to that reputation.

In addition to Hotel Mela's own French bistro, Saju, you'll find a variety of tempting dining options located near the hotel. From small neighborhood bistros and outdoor cafes to fine dining and internationally renowned signature restaurants, it's hard to make a culinary wrong turn.

In New York, where great cuisine is an art form and an evening spent with friends over good food and good wine is a way of life, dinner is often an event in its own right. It can also be the starting point for a night on the town when you catch dinner in the Times Square area before heading to a Broadway show and a night of dancing. Or the perfect break in a day of meetings or power shopping on Fifth Avenue - you get the idea.

Whatever your plans call for, our Your Desires team can provide you with recommendations, insider tips and assistance with reservations to plan the perfect experience.

Here are some local Midtown Manhattan restaurants that are among our current favorites to get you started. The hard part will be selecting just one!
