10 ICONIC NYC RESTAURANTS FOR THE PERFECT NIGHT OUT

Imagine a night so special, the bright lights and big stage were a footnote.

It’s not just possible. It’s well within your reach.

The energy, creativity and talent that defines Broadway defines the Theater District’s culinary scene, too. And whether you’re looking for stiff cocktails and delicious bites pre-show, a throwback to the Golden Age, or both (with a stunning view), an exceptional restaurant experience is only a short walk — or an elevator — away.

From Times Square institutions and world-famous reservations to the places where your favorite actors eat and drink, these ten restaurants can turn your night out on Broadway into a memory that lasts a lifetime.
