Flatiron

 

 

Flatiron is a trendy, high-energy neighborhood home to a fantastic dining scene, including Michelin-starred restaurants, delicious Mexican food, and Italian culinary treats. The area is also famous for its tall, gorgeous lofts and abundance of cast-iron and Beaux- Arts buildings. The area is named after the iconic wedge-shaped Flatiron Building and provides locals and visitors with fun bars, the well-known Madison Square Park, seasonal art installations, and even the original Shake Shack.

During the day and on the weekends, Flatiron maintains a fast-paced lifestyle. Its proximity to Union Square and endless dining options make it a popular destination for residents and visitors alike. At night, however, Flatiron remains relatively mellow and quiet, making it a perfect place for families. Plenty of transportation options and a central location close to Midtown make Flatiron a commuter-friendly community.

Flatiron’s restaurants offering global menus mean there are plenty of options to choose from when it comes to finding the perfect meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Upscale Korean fare cooked to perfection on smokeless grills and paired with delicious vino from a substantial wine list is found at COTE Korean Steakhouse. If you prefer a more casual atmosphere, look no further than Union Square Cafe. This popular eatery is Danny Meyer’s first location and showcases the best local ingredients in its seasonal New American dishes.

For a mix of cuisine and shopping, spend the afternoon meandering through Eataly NYC. This vibrant Italian marketplace provides tourists and locals with a wide selection of shops, eateries, and a cooking school, allowing people to eat, shop, and learn while visiting here.
