Whether you’re in the mood for a quick bite or something more substantial, Murray Hill has a range of dining choices. The neighborhood spots are generally informal but there are certainly some great options if you feel like getting glam’d up. On a night out with your sweetheart, head to Artisanal for the fondue and a more classic ambience or Asellina for the Burrata Raviolo and a posh, lively vibe. If it’s a really special evening, visit the elegant Riverpark where everything on the menu is outstanding and you can enjoy spectacular views on the water (and outdoor seating in summer months). Meet up with friends somewhere fun and easy like Baby Bo’s Cantina, a small festive Mexican restaurant serving delicious burritos like the Poblano and BBQ Duck. If you want something a little more lean, check out Wild Edibles, a casual seafood joint where you can choose from a daily fish selection and have it prepared to your liking. On the weekend, head to Penelope for brunch where you can recover from the previous night’s adventures with fluffy Pumpkin Waffles. When the family comes to town, treat yourself to a filet at the swanky Wolfgang’s Steakhouse. For something a little less intense, head to El Parador for excellent paella in a chic atmosphere.
