My 5 star places
See All Lists
1. The Chicken or the Egg
This place gets 5 stars because every year I'm completely drawn to it at least once.
Growing up on the Jersey Shore, you have to go to this place. Be it for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a drunken post bar stop. The drunken stops are the worst, they…More »
2. Jersey Mike's Subs
Best subs in Jersey! Maybe even on the planet. This place knows how to make a sub.
The meat is very fresh and delicious, as are the veggies. The bread is locally made and delivered each day.
The club supreme is my favorite cold sub. Roast beef,…More »
3. The Australian
New York, NY 10017
(212) 869-8601
I really liked this place! Came on a Sunday and the place looked empty, so empty in fact I wasn't sure if they were open. From the outside it looks small, but it goes deep and has a second floor. I didn't see all of the people eating lunch in the…More »
4. Smith & Wollensky
Come on, are you really going to get a better steak anywhere???
The filet mignon is wonderful. The meat is cooked to perfection and doesn't get much better. I had the creamed spinach and the mac and cheese with it. The spinach was wonderful. Full…More »
5. Yard House
The place was packed, but no wait for a table. The menu looked great. Our waitress knew a lot about the beers giving us a few craft and house suggestions. She also made a few good suggestions on the menu.
The beer selection was great. I settled on…More »
6. Dock's Oyster House
Had a wonderful dinner here.
The place is in a bit of a shady area, but it's AC, so what area isn't awful looking. The place has been around since the 1890's so they must be doing something right. We got a cab from our hotel, and there were 2…More »
7. Mickey Spillane's
This is one of my favorite places to go to watch a game. The bar is quite large, there are plenty of tvs and the staff is always wonderful.
The food is great. They have a good pub menu with standards such as nachos, quesadillas, shepards pie,…More »
8. Gray's Papaya
Best place to grab a couple of awesome hot dogs.
The special is 2 and a drink for $4.45. I rotate between the papaya and the pina colada drinks.
The place is nothing spectacular when walking in. Just the grill and ordering area, a counter for your…More »
9. McGrath's Tavern
I was just expecting a regular old small town tavern experience, and boy was I wrong!
The place was great. We sat at the bar and were served right away. The bartender was very nice. We tried a couple of beers before I decided on a nice Magner's. I…More »
10. Rainbow Bridge
Niagara Falls, ON L2G 3K9
Canada
(905) 354-5641
Great views and you get to enter Canada! Sweet!
This bridge can be driven over or walked across. The car lanes were quite packed, so we decided to leg it out. There were no customs lines, the agents on both sides were awesome. There is a cool duty…More »
11. The General Grant Memorial
New York, NY 10024
(212) 666-1640
Categories:
Museums,
Landmarks & Historical Buildings
Neighbourhood: Morningside Heights
Now that the pavilion across the street is finished this place is fantastic. The Tomb is just what it sounds like. A huge marble tomb housing Grant and Julia Dent-Grant. The caskets are surrounded by the busts of Grant's major generals giving it…More »
12. Oriental Palace
I really cannot believe it has taken me this long to review. I've only been coming here for the last 3 years.
This place has the best Chinese and Japanese food in the area. The staff is very nice and they deliver.
The sushi is very good, done right…More »
13. Loreley Restaurant & Biergarten
New York, NY 10002
(212) 253-7077
This is one of my favorite places in NYC. Went recently and we had a wonderful time. Sat out back in the beer garden. My friends and I shared delicious pretzels, awesome schnitzels, wonderful sausages, and Gaffel Kolsch beer. The place has a…More »
14. Hofbrauhaus Pittsburgh
Joe Malloy!
I love that guy.
This is such a great place. About as good as the Las Vegas place. The food is tremendous, both in flavor and quantity. The pretzels are wonderful, with beer cheese.
Schnitzel was fantastic. I even loved the sauerkraut…More »
15. Dinosaur Bar-B-Que
Being a veteran of the Harlem location, I was excited while passing through Syracuse to stop here.
Upon entering I noticed it was half the size of the NYC location (old and new), and it was completely packed just like the other spot. The wait wasn't…More »
16. Dinosaur Barbecue
I love this place!
They have wonderful food and a bunch of beers.
Try the big ass pork plate with mac and cheese and baked beans. For dessert get the peanut butter pie to share.
I bring my Jersey friends here all the time and now they are hooked.
17. Plattduetsche Park Restaurant
So, I've been to this place a few times and each time it is fantastic.
I was able to go yesterday which made my tastebuds very happy. The biergarten was not open, but the restaurant was. We sat at the bar watching the Mets game and started off with…More »
18. Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana
Thank you Frank Pepe for moving into Westchester. I've heard of this place from the Travel Channel and Food Network for a long time, just never got over to New Haven. You can imagine my delight when I saw the place going up in my town!
I waited for…More »
19. Everest
Had to get my omelet fix from Yolanda this morning. I love this tiny diner. Try to get in here whenever I am in the area. The food is great and the staff is fantastic.

So I've been to this park twice and I love it!

Pittsburgh, you guys know how to have a baseball…More »

Montréal, QC H4B 5G0
Canada
(514) 932-2582
Category:
Stadiums & Arenas
This place is a palace!
I love the arena. The banners of championship teams, retired numbers, and even the Montreal Expos retired numbers are awe inspiring. There is also a picture of a Canadiens great above every section. I was lucky enough to be…More »
22. Pointe-A-Calliere Musee D'archeologie Et D'histoire
I really enjoyed this "Birthplace of Montreal" museum.
It's built on the area where Montreal started as a trading post. The museum gives you a cheesy movie of Montreal's history, ok movie just cheesy. You then get to walk through the archaeological…More »
23. Omni William Penn Hotel
Pittsburgh, PA 15219
(412) 281-7100
Categories:

Neighbourhood: Downtown

I had a great time at this place.
The bartenders were awesome. I was there for quite a while and had 2 different tenders. Both were really cool, they knew how to keep yoyr drinks filled and were great conversationalists.
The happy hour was really…More »
25. Europea Restaurant
So we wanted a really nice dinner one night. Being from NYC I figured this would set me back about $300-400. Well this place came highly recommended from some fellow Yelpers, so I decided to give it a whirl.
I made a reservation from the hotel and…More »
26. Red Square
Wanted to have a nice dinner out and was not disappointed at all.
As anyone could guess the place specializes in vodka. Lately it's been my drink of choice so I was ready.
I had a fantastic vodka drink called a Siberian Forest. The appetizer was also…More »
27. McCormick & Schmick's
I had a great experience here the other night. We were in town and feeling a bit under the weather. We decided on this place, but I was hesitant due to it being a chain. I wanted a real Pittsburgh place.
We get to the restaurant just before our…More »
28. Old Heidelberg
There seems to be 2 entries for the same place, so I'm just going to rate it twice.
Nice, family owned restaurant. The dining area kind of reminds me of going to a grandparents house house for a holiday meal. They have decorations, some posters, and…More »
29. The Eveready Diner
This place is getting some bad reviews!
I went the other day and it was great. The place is trying to be a fifties style diner. It has a huge menu (as it should), great drinks (freshly prepared vanilla coke anybody?), and fantastic food.
I started…More »
30. Ganga Asian Bistro
Had dinner here for the second time last night with some great friends.
I love the food here. You get a ton of food for the money. The sushi rolls are humongous and delicious.
We started with the edamame. Not over salted, very tasty.
I had a plate…More »
31. Jose Tejas
Went out for dinner with some friends last night at one of our favorite places.
The place was packed as usual. Took about 25 minutes to get a table, but as always it was well worth it.
We started with the salsa and chips as well as the chorizo fundido…More »

Neighbourhoods: Midtown West, Theater District
Great food, good beer!
The place looks fantastic on the inside. Nice dark wood, with white tiles and old style celing fans. Love the chalk boards showing specials and fish. I do hate revolving doors though.
The food was great. They have a prix fixe…More »
33. Total Wine & More
The Walmart of liquor stores!
They have all kinds of beer and hard liquor, as well as a huge selection of wines. I love the fact that they allow tastings. I'm not a wine drinker, but always wanted to do a tasting. They had single malt scotch,…More »
34. Master Mechanix
So I get into an accident and my Jeep's entire front end is now in my trunk. Allstate gives me this place and tells me they will call to make the appointment.
I get the call and bring in my Jeep. The owner greeted me gave me a handshake and…More »
35. MTA Metro North Station - Glenwood
Great scenic location. This station offers a great view of the Hudson River, the Palisades and an abandoned power station. The station itself has a large indoor area which is heated. It also has weather shelters on the platform. It just needs to…More »
36. Glenwood On Hudson LLC
Very easy to deal with. The apartments are beautiful and fairly inexpensive. Very close to Metro North (Glenwood). I loved calling this place home. The girls in the office are a pleasure. The maintenance guys are quick and reliable. Parking in…More »
37. MTA Metro North Station - Marble Hill
This is a great station. The view is spectacular, you can see the river, park, and over to the Bronx. It seems very clean. I find it very safe for the ladys here as there is only one way in and out with a long staircase, making potential muggers…More »

5 Stars really!?!?
Yeah, because it was so good and totally surprisingly so. I have been trying to find a decent sandwich in NYC for a while. I figured, what the hell, it's 9pm and I'm trying to get home, this is Grand Central so it'll be expensive…More »
39. Doubletree Hotel & Suites
Stayed in Pittsburgh for 3 nights. The room was awesome! Got a suite on Expedia for $180 a night. Large living room, huge closets, large bedroom, bit of a tiny bathroom. The room was very clean, very livable.
Parking was $20 a day, valet. Really…More »
