I am very partial to Cha Pa's Noodle and Grill on 52nd. I love their whole menu, but particularly their pho, and the service is always incredibly fast. You can get in and out between shows with plenty of time to take a nap or wander the streets of Midtown before your evening call time.
Carversteak, the modern steakhouse that built a following on the Las Vegas Strip, will open its first location outside Nevada at 305 W. 48th Street in midtown Manhattan next week. The restaurant comes from Carver Road Hospitality and expands the group's growing footprint in the city, which already includes venues like Rosevale Cocktail Room and Starchild Rooftop.
