"There are restaurants that are simply near Broadway shows, and there are restaurants—like Bar Centrale—that cater specifically to theater-goers. When you make a reservation (only taken via phone, like it’s 1991), they ask about your show details so they can get you in and out on time. The entrance looks like any old brownstone, and once inside, you’ll feel like you stumbled into a secret club with zebra wallpaper, old-timey music, and Jimmy Stewart movies on TV. Come before or right after a show, and order deviled eggs, a strip steak, and a classic cocktail." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, sonal shah, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick
