Justin OrdovezaDecember 20, 2016A stones throw away from Grand Central station this is a great place to grab a quick bite or meet with friends for a beer. Some stalls have seats but for the most part it's communal seating.
This place gets packed but several spots like Red Hook or the Ramen place have counters; order there and camp out, send a friend to bring back samples from other artisanal stands. Sushi tacos yum.
The Red Hook Lobster Pound is a bunch counter and bar with great service and no line compared to the other places. And there's no tradeoff in deliciousness either!
So many options!! Roberta's (pizza), Amali Mou (Greek), Seamore's (fish tacos), Ippudo (ramen), Liquiteria (smoothies), Ovenly (cookies), Bangkok Bar (Thai), Korilla BBQ (Korean), Mr Bing (Chinese)...
If there's no line at Delaney Chicken, make a bee line for it. Crispy & flavorful on the outside & incredibly succulent & juicy inside - perfectly done. One of the best things to order here.
Brett PeterselOctober 9, 2015This place is incredible. There are a lot of options to choose from, and I suggest you try them all.
Kimmie OhhJanuary 4, 2020These are just a few cuisines you could eat here: Indian food, Mexican food, Cajun food, Japanese food & Italian food. Come with a group of friends so you could try different types of foods.
Roberta's pizza is the reason why I come here. For a dessert, ovenly's chocolate truffle cookie is the perfect conclusion. Happy to be accessible to Brooklyn's deliciousness.
Roger RJune 1, 2016Awesome place..come at 3 or 4pm to avoid crowds. Hard times sundaes and Delaney Chicken are right n ft to each other and are 1a and 1b ...soooo good- Mike FriedlichNovember 15, 2016Double Cheeseburger with caramelized onions at Hard Times Sundaes is one of the best burgers I've had. The burger and the chicken sandwich at Delaney Chicken are the way to go
Delaney Chicken: sandwich is pretty hype. Yes, the staff is slow. The pickles are delicious and the chicken is so fresh and there's too much mayo. Worth a visit
- Noah WeissFebruary 5, 2017Probably the best conglomeration of tasty food in NYC: Ippudo, Roberta's, Toby's, and Mr. Bing's!
Adam JiwanSeptember 20, 2018This place has a lot of different options to chose from and they are all excellent choices. You really can't go wrong with getting any food here. The prices are a little high, but it is worth it.
Midtown has finally grown up! Trendy lunch spot with tons of options. My new faves - No. 7 Veggie, Delaney Chicken, La Palapa, among others.
Sophia LiuMarch 12, 2016Love this place and the shared space vibes. I'll stick out the crowd to try every vendor. Pictured shoyu broth Kuro-Obi by Ippudo NY.
Ashley RoseSeptember 17, 2015best addition to Midtown East in a long time. Tons of great lunch and après work beverage options. Can't wait to try them all!
FotolocoMay 17, 2018this place is magic and pure NY, u got all the food options: burgers great donuts thai mexican japan chicken veggie... all, u go to try it
Norah AAugust 29, 2016A modern foodcourt with a unique NYC touch.. Grab lunch there and before leaving take a coffee to-go from Toby's estate and a doughnut from Dough to go along with it
Floor BAugust 16, 2019Oh My God! Had the yummiest Dandan noodles of my life (and I am Chinese!). Price is average ($12 for dishes, $6-8 for beer)
funky flavorSeptember 29, 2016Super hip trendy food court style. Very nice bites to grab and try some pizza at Roberta's while you are at it.
very casual lunch spot that gets crazy crowded some days. best option for lunch in the area for people with different tastes. Roberta's pizza or the Thai spot are favs- You're here. It's packed. What to order. If there's only a short line, head for Delaney Chicken. If you see a guy with the crazy hair, that's Daniel Delaney. Say Hi.
Gustavo SandovalFebruary 12, 2016Lots of different food choices: From Pizza and Gyros to Pretzels with Prosciutto. There is a coffee spot all the way in the back- Mike FriedlichJune 21, 2016Delaney Chicken's original fried chicken sandwich and Ovenly's salted vegan chocolate chip cookies are the way to go!
Arte YescasOctober 12, 2017Food court style, many options and very cozy. TOBYS COFFEE: Strong coffee selections, normal prices, great customer service.
John AJuly 2, 2017Very hip little food court filled with local and alternative style food. Now that I found this gem.. Definitely going back to try the unique options.
Amazing new lunch options in midtown east. Asia dog and Amali mou are two faves. Will be back everyday until I've tried them all- DoubleDeuceSeptember 17, 2015It's way too packed her during lunch hours if you're in a rush. But if you have a little bit of time, take advantage of the wonderful options...or come off peak and enjoy the variety (like me)!
Luke McGowanJuly 9, 2018Excellent food market with a wide range of choices. Robertas original pizza is amazing and beer on tap at mayhem sandwiches is of a high quality.
Great variety. Gluten-free options, barbecue, authentic Thai food and more. Like a food truck festival exploded in midtown east, with better seating.
Try to go on the early side or you'll wind up on lines of folks in finance
JJune 9, 2017I came here to get Dough doughnuts and I was impressed with the variety of good food restaurants all in one place! Definitely going back! 😌
ChristophJanuary 9, 2020Whenever I am in nyc this food court is a must for me. Many choices. Great atmosphere.
Cynthia LinSeptember 20, 2015Really great selection here! And way better arranged than Gansevoort Market and City Kitchen. Delaney fried chicken is really good and crispy!
Ms HeleneOctober 6, 2015Gourmet food court for best affordable eats near Grand Central-Toby's Estate coffee, Ovenly baked GF goods, Asian tacos etc
Angelique HoutveenFebruary 26, 2016Lots of options to get some taco. And I love taco's 😃. Great to go here with friends that have different tastes in food.
TimelessnomadDecember 22, 2015Lots of veg/vegan options here! I miss the days when it first opened and the lines were short. Some places also serve breakfast too though. If your stuck waiting for your train @ grand central go here
So many good eating options under a single roof, definitely worth fighting your way through the crowds from Park Ave.- The fusion tacos at Takumi are more flavorful than the authentic Mexican tacos from La Palapa.
Its a bit expensive in this food court but the options are all great and its bursting with activity
Athonia CappelliApril 9, 2019Many vegan and vegetarian options are found here. Two Tablespoons is among them
Ayse D OzturkMay 6, 2017Lively and casual food court in central Manhattan. Thai basil rice bowl is seriously spicy!! Cool place.
Elvis RodricksMay 21, 2017Such a treat for midtown ... open on Sundays too! experience some good ethnic street food like Mr. Bings
Sonny KwokDecember 30, 2015Oh man, this spot is such a nice little food court in the mid town food desert
- I miss the unique bombast of Delaney Chicken but the (smaller, cheaper) sandwich at Bobwhite is pretty damn good as well
Exciting new food hall for the midtown lunch brigade. So far Bankok Bar, Roberta's & No. 7 Veg are highlights
Christina ChinApril 13, 2016Sigmunds hh is 4-9p and every drink u order you get a free pretzel. Cheddar truffle pretzel is yummy!
Awesome place I love all the different venues I only been to 2 so far Ill be going to the others soon.- Sally LaitDecember 17, 2015Eat here rather than the much more generic Grand Central food court. Much more interesting options and better atmosphere.

"Simply delicious, I am once a month in Italy and know very well how a great pizza tastes. Well this was absolutely fantastic. Well done!"
Florian Kaufmann - 6.7
"I love love love the ramen here (recommended: aka-obi with the umami egg 😋). It's spectacular. The line is always crazy long during lunch hours, but the wait time is so short! It's deceptive."
