"What’s better than eating one of the best burgers in the city? Eating it in a spot with a spectacular view. At Manhatta, on the 60th floor of a FiDi skyscraper, you can get both at the walk-in-only bar area. The burger comes with just the right amounts of sharp american cheese, caramelized sweet koji onions, and some mayo with bits of shiitake. That sounds like a lot of distractions, but none of the accessories take away from the prominent flavor of the dry-aged beef. For another perfectly-proportioned burger at a Danny Meyer restaurant, try the one at Gramercy Tavern." - will hartman, bryan kim, neha talreja, willa moore, kenny yang
"Sixty floors up, Danny Meyer’s Manhatta offers some of the best dining views in the neighborhood. Its dining room looks out onto the East River, the Manhattan Bridge, and Brooklyn, and behind the walnut and granite bar, the rest of downtown Manhattan is visible. The restaurant has changed since it initially opened. Currently, lunch is a la carte and for dinner, you can have a three-course tasting menu for $115 or four courses for $145." - Eater Staff
"The view from Manhatta makes every other New York City restaurant seem boring and pedestrian. You can see most of Manhattan and Brooklyn from this spot on the 60th floor of a building in FiDi, so try and snag a table by one of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The menu is New American, and, while that might sound boring, the food is actually pretty unique, highlighted by a barbecued freshwater eel with bone marrow and red wine." - bryan kim, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah
"The Deal: $60 Lunch The prix-fixe at Manhatta normally starts at $115, and people gladly pay that much because it comes with a panoramic view from the 60th floor of a FiDi skyscraper. With this deal, which comes with three courses, you can almost cut that bill in half. Along with your view, you’ll get some innovative New American food." - bryan kim
"Oysters Manhatta "I don't understand why people aren't crazier about Manhatta. The food is delicious. It's an incredible view. If somebody comes to New York and I want to really show them 'New York' I will take them there at sunset. What could be better than oysters and uni and sabayon sauce? And there's Manhattan at your feet. It's one of the most beautiful views of the city where you don't also have to pay for an arm and a leg. They don't have to have good food, but they actually do." - brennan carley
