The 17 Best Theater District Restaurants - New York - The Infatuation
"For a casual, homestyle dinner in a theatrical setting, head to Nasrin’s Kitchen, an Iranian restaurant in a crumbling Gilded Age mansion on 57th Street. The ornamental molding and oil paintings are worthy of a stage set, with added Persian touches like dried rose petals, framed calligraphy, and lute music. Get a hot bowl of ash reshteh or eggplant dip with fresh bread to start, and rose-scented baklava to finish. The stew and kebab entrees come with big plates of rice that’ll keep you going until the curtains come down. And you’re not likely to find warmer, family-style service, or unfussier food in this part of Midtown." - Kenny Yang, Hannah Albertine, Sonal Shah, Carina Finn Koeppicus, Bryan Kim
