Japanese Restaurant · East Village · 187 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Good yakitori is hard to come by, but not here. Delve into the chicken skewers and the crispy chicken skins and wash it down with one of their Japanese beers on tap.
Brazilian Restaurant · Hell's Kitchen · 164 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: The sheer diversity of meats here is astonishing. If you've never been to an authentic rodizio, here is a great place to start. Come hungry because the meat doesn't stop until you say so!
152 W 44th St (btwn Broadway & 6th Ave), New York, NY
BBQ Joint · Theater District · 273 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Tender brisket, slide-off-the-bone ribs, and mouth-watering pulled pork. Get any of those and pair it with the trainwreck fries, you won't know what to do with yourself.
41 Saint Marks Pl (btwn 1st & 2nd Ave), New York, NY
Café · East Village · 403 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: This place is often packed for brunch and for good reason. The pumpkin pancakes are all they're cracked up to be, and outdoor seating makes it great for people watching.
