"A coworker and I stopped by this new-to-NYC Japanese restaurant to shoot an episode of Eater's "First Bite," and I find myself still thinking about the richness of the tsukemen ($21), a dipping ramen with noodles and this wonderfully hearty broth. It's well worth getting the add-on rice when the noodles are all gone so you can get in every single drop. 92 Second Avenue, between East Fifth and Sixth streets, East Village - Nadia Chaudhury, deputy dining editor, Northeast"
"I love it for its lush little room, the perfect horseshoe bar, a fun soundtrack, the excellent wine list from Jorge Riera, and the straight-ahead food offerings, from an outrageously great cheeseburger to a memorable sausage and kraut. At the end of the meal, the desserts are simple yet memorable. There's a collection of custards topped with something delicious, such as the chocolate custard leveled-up with a drizzle of Chartreuse ($16)."
A Japanese restaurant on Second Avenue serves rich tsukemen, a dipping ramen priced at $21, featuring noodles and a wonderfully hearty broth. An optional add-on rice lets diners soak up every drop of broth. Wild Cherry, from Riad Nasr and Lee Hanson inside the A24-run theater, offers a lush room, a horseshoe bar, a lively soundtrack, an excellent wine list by Jorge Riera, and straightforward dishes such as a standout cheeseburger and sausage with kraut. The dessert selection includes custards like chocolate custard with a Chartreuse drizzle and a voluminous white coconut cake with feathery frosting by pastry chef Michelle Palazzo. Finding a quiet, non-touristy meal in Times Square is challenging, and the Knickerbocker hotel offers high-in-the-sky dining options after Broadway shows.
