UES Must Try Restaurants

When reading up on restaurants in Manhattan, it is always suggesting go to restaurants in downtown neighborhoods. However, when living in the upper east side I don’t always have the energy to go all the way down town when I want to enjoy a nice meal. Therefore I have tried some of the cutest places I have come across in my area! Next time you are visiting New York or looking for a nice spot after visiting the met or the Guggenheim, check out these upper east side restaurants!

Brunch: Quality Eats 📍 1496 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10075, United States

Not only is the atmosphere and aesthetics of this restaurant perfect for Sunday brunch with your girlies 10/10 but their food is amazinnggg! My favorite item is their buttermilk pancakes, they are a must try! I have also have multiple items on their menu and you can not go wrong with whatever you choose!

Lunch: J.G. Melon 📍 1291 3rd Ave, New York, NY 10021, United States

CASH ONLY

Apparently Bella Hadid noted that this was her favorite place in Manhattan to get a burger 👀

With a laid back atmosphere this is a great spot to stop in with friends or family for a good sandwich or burger for lunch. I got their cheeseburger and it was simple, delicious, and not over priced!

Dinner: THEP Thai Restaurant 📍 1439 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10021, United States

MY FAVORITE! This is my go to restaurant to order take out for when I want to treat myself to a cozy night at home. But also the perfect place to bring family or friends. They are always packed but you never have to wait too long. I love how each season they change their decorations and it is the cutest thing I have ever seen. I love the entire vibe of this place and would kill to have a cute date here!
