NYC restaurant suggestions near Central at 5th Hilton Club?

[marmite]

I have plenty of restaurants on my list for when staying at the Quinn or West 57th, but the next trip is to Central at 5th.

Does anyone have any (walkable) restaurant recommendations they can pass on?

Thanks.

I have been using the Trip Advisor forums for a lot of questions I have about specific locations. The folks on the New York City forum are very helpful. You can get recommendations from people who both live in NYC and visit there.

It has been a long time since I visited TA @Luanne I wonder if my login would even work. TUG is a comfort-zone and I love hearing answers from TUGers -- I also bookmark quite a few threads here to use as resources for other trips. But yes, point taken, there are other good sources of travel information.

I like getting input from TUGGERs as well. But I find that the TA forums have been providing me more information for some locations that I can get here.

Via Brasil (Brazilian food) 34 W 46th St. One of my favorites.

Are you asking about the location of the Hilton Club The Central at 5th Ave? If so, we like Sean's Bar & Kitchen, on 48th between 5th & 6th.

Yes. "The Central at 5th" at 12 E 48th St. I'm going to go add Hilton Club into the title in case people come to this from the homepage and not the HGVC forum.

Smith & Wollensky is also walking distance. Haven't been there for a few years so check recent reviews.

Yama Ramen is within walking distance. It's very close to Sean's.

The Quinn is across the street from the West 57th location so any suggestions for either will work for both.
However compared to the other Hilton Club locations in New York City, Central at 5th is still relatively new. We don't have any reviews in the TUG Resort Review Database and very few threads regarding Central at 5th. It's also the first year Central at 5th has been sighted in RCI.

I hope you have a great time. Please share your thoughts and restaurant recommendations when you get back.

Hi! I stayed at the Central at 5th with my daughter in December for 3 nights. we were there the week before Christmas so it was very busy. Also, she’s 16 so we avoided fine dining. We had breakfast from Ess-a-bagel, Maman (our favorite breakfast), and Tipsy Baker (not nearly as good as Maman). We had dinner one night at Bill’s Burger Bar. It was pretty good and quick. Most of our other meals were in other parts of the city. I wanted to go to Joe’s Home of Soup Dumplings, which is right across the street, but the timing did not work out for us.

Enjoy your visit! We liked the Central at 5th. It was the perfect location for a December visit to NYC. There was some construction noise in the middle of the night so pack you ear plugs. Hopefully it’s done by your visit.

Sorry but my list isn't a real list I can pass on, I keep a bunch of bookmarks to various restaurants I have been to or want to check out. Most of them came from this thread which you may have already seen:
