A mirrored, handsome room on a corner that used to be a franchise Mexican spot, now serving wagyu French dip and whole lobster repositioned in the shell for easier eating. It's a polished, scene-y restaurant from Catch Hospitality, which means it looks great and reservations can be a project. Taylor Swift has been spotted here, which tells you roughly what kind of evening to dress for.

Rank 1815. NARO
Korean
The name comes from South Korea's first carrier rocket, which tells you something about the ambitions in the room. Naro is a fine dining Korean restaurant in Rockefeller Center from the team behind Atomix, and where that room chases reinvention, this one returns to classics. The New York Times gave it three stars. Order the Dongji Martini, which made Esquire's list of the best martinis in the country, and let the evening unfold slowly.

Rank 1859. Chatpati Delhi
Indian
Chole bhature is the main event at this strip-mall street food spot in Franklin Park, where golden rounds of fried bread the size of cantaloupes arrive alongside bowls of dark, heavily spiced chana masala. The New Jersey Indian community found this place fast, and tables are rarely empty. The kitchen also runs a long roster of Delhi chaat and a Mumbai sideline that includes a samosa served on a bun, which is exactly what it sounds like. The New York Times put it on its 2025 Restaurant List.

The banh mi here come in wax-paper egg-roll bags, which tells you something about the register. This Elmhurst sandwich shop keeps the classics, pâté and head cheese, while slipping in Korean bulgogi alongside them. The fries arrive heaped with pickled daikon, cilantro, jalapeño, and a green sauce borrowed from Peruvian chicken spots. Julie Wong has said she wanted to embrace Queens as a melting pot, and the menu takes that brief literally.

Rank 1876. Joe’s Steam Rice Roll
Cantonese Noodle Shop
Rice ground daily on-site in electric stone mills is the tell at this no-frills Flushing counter, a Cantonese cheong fun spot tucked into a minimall off Roosevelt Avenue. The noodle sheets come out nearly translucent, rolled around pork, shrimp, or egg to order. The New York Times gave it a Critic's Pick, which tracks: there are very few places in the city where the rice noodle itself is this clearly the point.
