Best return of a New York institution
2nd Ave Deli
Other nominees: Bull & Bear, Monkey Bar, Shopsin’s
We can imagine the infinite number of reasons you voted 2nd Ave Deli your favorite resurrected classic. Because when it closed down in 2006, it felt like someone tore out New York’s soul and gave it a roundhouse kick. Because it came back. Because it’s not on Second Avenue and just doesn’t care. Because they apologize for their Web page, which they call “shlumpy.” Because if you ask the ancient woman behind the counter what she recommends, she answers, “The pastrami and corned beef,” but not before coughing out a phlegmy, bubbe-like, “Ehhh, everything’s good.” Because that woman is right.

definately a place that many locals go. outside seating can be nice if you can get one. tab is always reasonable. everything else like service and food is EH. i have left with my party before ordering because the host/waiter was just plain rude and obnoxious. frankly, they need to get over themselves... but i guess as long as ppl keep coming.

Apparently the readers of this magazine have no BBQ experience whatsoever if they think hill country is the best! I know there is a shortage of good BBQ in NYC, but even Dallas BBQ is better than this overpriced garbage chain! Daisy Mae's, RUB, hell, the mcRib is better than hill country! If you like paying 10 bucks for a mexican coke that tastes like every other coke in the world, and carrying a bunch of subpar smoked meats all over a buffet restaurant then by all means, enjoy!
