Prices were pretty good considering the location . Had some brews it was like $8 pints. Had chicken and fries which was around $15 i believe. Plenty of food options i went after the lunch rush so it was pretty quiet and easy.

Finding a venue that satisfies every craving can be difficult, but the selection at Vanderbilt Market makes it quite simple. I appreciated the streamlined experience provided by the self-serve kiosks, as it allowed me to browse the numerous vendors and order at my own pace. The atmosphere is bustling yet organized. If you are looking for the facilities, they are tucked away in the rear, past the smoothie and beverage stall. This market is certainly worth a visit if you are in the area and desire a diverse meal.

Reminded me of eateries in Europe. Between the two of us we had a burger, sushi, empanadas and washed it down with an old fashion. All were excellent. Definitely going back on our next visit to NYC

Ms. Yolo was the best place to eat! From service to quality of food!! Will definitely eat there again when I return. You can mix up your empanadas as the are marked in the batter so no guessing. We went back and ordered more!!!

This place is cool. Lots of excellent food options. Very clean and organized, and the people are friendly. Stopped here before visiting the Vanderbilt observation tour, and it was a wonderful stop for our family at four. We have two places like this in our hometown San Jose California, the San Pedro Square Market and the SoFA Market. We felt right at home! My daughter and I got sushi, my son got fried chicken sliders n fries, my wife got Indian, and we were all very happy.

This place stole my heart at first sight! Located just steps away from the majestic Grand Central Station, it beckons with its cozy atmosphere, perfect for meetings with friends or warm family gatherings. You can spend quality time here, enjoying a cold beer 'to go', especially considering their generous pitchers at incredibly attractive prices - starting from $19. And for sports enthusiasts, there's the chance to dive into the thrilling broadcast of a match. But most importantly, of course, is the view! Before you, like on a palm, unfolds the majestic Manhattan, with its soaring skyscrapers creating a unique urban landscape. Undoubtedly, this is one of the best places for a budget tourist in New York! The cuisine amazes with a variety of dishes, but my heart is forever devoted to this corner of Manhattan. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Stopped in randomly while looking for a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised with the array of options! Went for some bao buns and loved the beef option. Lots of hoisin flavor and the cucumber / peanut crunch were a perfect combo.<br><br>Would definitely recommend for a quick lunch or snack option!

Plenty of tables when we went for lunch on a Saturday. I love the idea that its not crowded so you can enjoy dining. A lot of option for food there’s Mexican, pizza, Indian, poke bowls, Taiwanese noodles, Japanese, dessert and more. We tried the Taiwanese noodles and its very good. We will definitely come back and try the other food option.

Vanderbilt Market was bustling today. The food hall was filled with people having lunch, drinks and camaraderie. Now there is more seating and lots of different cuisines to choose from. What will it be today? I went to have Poached Chicken Rice at Lou Yao Kee. I got a seat at a table and lunch was delivered. Assorted condiments gave more flavor to this dish and the cup of warm chicken broth was refreshing despite the hot weather outside. I sat to enjoy this without having to hurry out. Music from a playlist was enjoyable. At $19.38 this was a tad expensive for me but as prices have risen one cannot complain.

A short distance from the Summit, I enjoyed the sushi place and the taco place. I got a bento box with grilled chicken and some mini salmon tacos. It was delicious but the small tacos are really tiny. I loved the spicy chorizo empanada and guac and chips froma the tacos place

I actually pretty love this place - for its convenience, spaciousness, efficiency in payments and service, variety of selections and clean environment. There’s Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, Indian, Korean, and the usual burgers, tacos and more. A nice commercial bar sits right in the centre as well if you are keen to have a pint of beer too. There are lots of seating areas available and also a nice cosy bakery located at the corner for a quick cup of coffee. Prices are slightly cheaper than the restaurants but fairly reasonable regardless. The layout is also decent; not too crammed and confusing. Alfresco seating also available if preferred. It’s just 3mins walk from Grand Central station.

Great place to stop if you don’t know what you are in the mood for. The variety is amazing! From pizza to poke bowls and amazing donuts for dessert! Only drawback is the seating. Place is always packed and there is very limited seating. Definitely worth the wait. There is something for everyone!
