These Are NYC's Best New Restaurants, Ranking Says

NEW YORK, NY — As the restaurant industry rebounds from the coronavirus crisis, New Yorkers ready to get back into local eateries will have a no shortage of new spots to try.

A new ranking from TimeOut makes it easy to choose which of those new hot spots to try. The outlet recently ranked the "21 Best New Restaurants In NYC," or the best restaurants from across the five boroughs that opened in the last six months.

"While we're always delighted to revisit those old favorites, everyone knows that sometimes only something shiny and new will do," editors from TimeOut wrote in the article.

Manhattanites will have the easiest time trying out the newly-opened favorites. Thirteen of the top 21 restaurants are found in the borough, including an Israeli eatery on the Upper West Side, two Greenwich Village spots and a sushi joint on the Upper East Side.

Brooklyn was not far behind with seven restaurants on the list.

Among them are the long-awaited revival of historic restaurant Gage & Tollner, a Park Slope outpost of chicken favorite Peri Peri, Victor in Gowanus and Baby Luc's in Carroll Gardens.

Monkey Noodle Bar was the only Queens eatery to make the list.
