HB Eats: Lunchtime Favorites in Lower Manhattan

Thanks to a new job downtown, I’ve recently had the delight of surveying a whole host of different lunch spots in and around the Financial District over the last few month.  Here are my top favorites so far!

Sushi: Bento - For quick and reliable sushi, check out Bento Sushi & Noodles on Broadway.  This place is always packed but the line (and the diners) move fast.

Burgers: Clark's Standard - From the same owner as P.J. Clarke's restaurant, this is the best burger that I’ve had in a long time.  Love the fries too! 

Vietnamese: Nicky’s – delicious banh mi sandwiches, summer rolls, and rice vermicelli.

                                     

Indian: Tandoor Palace - A no frills establishment with flavorful meat and veggie lunch boxes (and plenty of fresh naan!).

Mexican: Sabor de Mexico - A simple and tasty alternative to Chipotle (yes, there are tacos under the huge pile of toppings!).   

Thai: Aroy Dee Thai – Perfectly balanced Thai fried rice and other fun lunch specials. 

If you have a favorite lunch spot downtown, please let me know and I'll go check it out!
