If you wish to experience a meal that is delicious in an atmosphere that is upscale and classy, Vetro by Russo's on the Bay is the place to be. A fine dining Italian restaurant, Vetro serves classic dishes like stuffed shrimp, pasta, chicken Francaise, steak, and much more. The Italian wines and other mixes add on to your meal. Do not make the mistake of skipping the Italian desserts, especially the tiramisu. The elegant ambiance and beautiful views of Jamaica Bay transports you into another world.

Located in the basement, Sushi Azabu is a high-end Japanese restaurant that serves carefully prepared creations. The sushi is made with fresh fish that is imported from Japan. The Komai variety of rice is used along with Nikiri soy sauce that is prepared on-site. The floor of the venue is lined with soft pebbles and bamboo. Traditional Japanese wallpaper is used for the walls, completing the Japanese feel. The sushi is naturally a must try here, though the miso soup is also worth relishing.

Situated on a barge beside the Brooklyn Bridge, this superb, elegant restaurant is where native New Yorkers and people who want to impress their dates gather for special occasions. With a spectacular view of lower Manhattan right outside the window and beautiful flowers blanketing the room, it all culminates into an incredibly romantic setting. The service is excellent, and the creative American cuisine is always in the hands of the capable chefs in the kitchen. A jacket and tie are required for men at dinner.

Located inside the Macy's at Herald Square, Stella 34 Trattoria is where you will find one of the best wood-fired pizzas and delicious pastas in Midtown.

With just the right balance of spices, cream and meat cooked to perfection, dishes like beef ragu and risotto carbonara taste like a dream.

Sitting pretty on the ninth floor of the Museum of Arts and Design, Robert paints a vibrant stroke atop the shades of grey that dominates the modern building. Christened after the iconic American event planner, Robert Isabell, the space is stamped with his signature style and panache. The cuisine is a blend of American and Mediterranean flavors, and gives way to a creatively-plated contemporary menu. Savor Foie Gras mousse, charred octopus and blue baby mussels with fine wine and inventive cocktails like the Mad Manhattan and Venetian Sparkler. The loungey interiors and unique art installation decor make for an eclectic and chic ambiance. Floor-to-ceiling windows give way to stunning views of Columbus Circle and Central Park.

The View is New York's only revolving rooftop restaurant. Munch over your food and enjoy a breathtaking 360-degree view from the heart of the Times Square Theater District. The New American cuisine that changes seasonally includes top quality steaks, chops and seafood. Try out a bottle of Finger Lakes Riesling or North Fork Cabernet franc from Kevin Zraly's award winning wine list. The Sunday Special brunch is a chocolate fountain designed for dipping berries, marshmallows and pretzels. It is a great place to spend some time with a few friends after a long day.

American cuisine seems to be thriving with the eateries limiting their focus to all American favorites advertised with contemporary twists. STK is one such establishment in the Meatpacking District, sporting a stellar assortment of premium meats in a rather glamorous avatar. While the steaks on offer receive the attention and care they deserve, the restaurant's stylish interiors and contemporary setting will change your perception about steakhouses in general. The lounge is a great place to chill out with a drink after your meal while the DJ spins a fun vibe.
