The Best Restaurants in Midtown East, According to Eater Editors
"The Midtown power spot from Jean-Georges Vongerichten features dramatic architecture, designed by Lord Norman Foster, whose firm is behind big projects like London’s City Hall; and Lusail Stadium in Qatar for the 2022 World Cup. An intimate dining room sits on a floating balcony accessed by a dramatic staircase, and the downstairs bar area has 45-foot ceilings and a large Larry Poons painting. It’s the first time chefs Jonathan Benno and Vongerichten have worked together, with Benno bringing his Italian and New American sensibilities to the menu and Vongerichten infusing elements of Asian cuisines. There’s both a tasting menu and a la carte dining. There’s now a weekday power breakfast option that starts at 7 a.m." - Melissa McCart
