Any kosher restaurants near the empire state building? Dairy or Meat

I was about to go to Rosa's Pizza & Pasta then I found a link that said they are no longer kosher.

Thanks

Closest will be Circa (milchig), which is on 33rd and 6th. Mendy's is on 34th between Park and Madison, so it's a couple blocks east.

If you start walking up Broadway, you'll hit Jerusalem Pizza (around 37th), Pitopia (37th and Bway), Mr. Broadway (Bway btw 37th and 38th).

Mendy's is pretty close I think, a block or two in each direction (meaning I think it's something like one block north and one block east) It's deli-style with some restaurant seating; classy enough for me but if you're looking for a fancy restaurant that's not it. Right near the NW corner of 34th and Park. OU.

There's another kosher place, maybe even two, on the same block, that might be more of a restaurant. The one I am pretty sure exists is I think middle-eastern style, and there might also be a sushi-type place, or they might be the same place...

Circa (dairy) is also in that area, not sure exactly where, they might have moved since the last time I saw it.

Kosher Delight is a little farther but still same region - Broadway and 30-something. 36? And there's some other kosher food around there too.

Eden wok is on 34th and Lex. But its right across from the Stern dorm so usually full of Stern and YU students.

Thanks

I'd say it depends how far you want to go. If not having to walk far from the ESB is a priority for you, Eden Wok and Circa are both very good choices and close. If you don't mind hiking a little more, you might get better reviews. Also depends if you prefer fancy restaurant experience or more like fast food.

Jerusalem II Pizza moved locations recently. They're now called Jerusalem Cafe and are located at 35 W 36th Street. That's pretty close to the empire state building. And for those that suggested Kosher Delight, I read that they are closing down their midtown location as of today.

Wow thanks for the update! It would be frustrating to go there expecting to find food and only then find that the place moved/closed!

plenty of places to eat nearby!

there's a steak place not too far away - la carne - and another dairy place, travere, near mendy's and eden wok.

Another vote for Eden Wok as best fleishigs and very close. Tiberias is a new upscale milchigs place that has yummy food, shakes and sushi. It's right near Eden Wok.
