5 Eateries in The Bronx You Should Try

Jessica N. Todmann

Aside from the shopping and club hopping, New York City is also the global food capital. New Yorkers love to eat, and those visiting often make it a point to try all this town has to offer within the culinary department.

While for the most part out-of-towners, as well as New Yorkers, tend to gravitate towards restaurant’s in Manhattan, there’s an often overlooked borough you should explore. 

The Bronx!

Cơm Tấm Ninh Kiều_2.JPG

Here you’ll find a unique range of cultural diversity that can only be realized and appreciated if you take the train (or car) ride in. 

If you’re feeling adventurous, and hungry, I’ve got a few eateries in The Bronx to recommend. *Please note that COVID-19 related restrictions are still in place within the New York City area, so many dining establishments are only offering takeout, pickup and/or delivery services.*

The Seashore

If you want your meal to come with a view, then stop by The Seashore. Located right off the City Island Road Bridge, you can get here by car and park onsite or via public transportation (take the local Bx29 bus or the BxM8 express bus). This waterfront destination offers an expansive seafood menu that never fails in the taste department, along with a very attentive waitstaff and management team. The Seashore offers a lunchtime menu at a great price point, with no shortage on the portion size or quality. For now, you’ll be able to enjoy their online ordering options for take-out and delivery.

Fratelli’s

Fratelli’s is an Italian restaurant housed in the Pelham Gardens section of The Bronx. Take the #5 subway line and get off at either the Gun Hill Road or Pelham Parkway train stations to get there, or opt for a ride on the Bx12 bus that runs from the Inwood section of Manhattan. Of course, driving is also an option and parking is plentiful within this mainly residential neighborhood. Indeed, Fratelli’s does have this “neighborhood” feel and their atmosphere makes it a welcoming place for both regulars and newcomers. So does the food. In sharing his own story, the head chef and owner makes it clear that he’s cooking from the heart and sharing a piece of his tradition with diners. If you’re flying solo their Veal and Shrimp Fratelli dish tops the list. If you’ve got a few mouths to feed, try their Family of Four dinner special!

Cơm Tấm Ninh Kiều

Cơm Tấm Ninh Kiều_5(Interior_Signage).JPG

Cơm Tấm Ninh Kiều is a Vietnamese restaurant with a friendly young team ready to serve up some tasty grub. They’ve recently revamped their website which makes navigating it pretty seamless. Their operating hours are now right at the top of the page and a lovely visual menu has been added to showcase all of their food items. Although the current state of the pandemic will prevent you from dining in, luckily St. James Park is right across the street. Walk in and take a walk while you enjoy your Bánh Mì! They also have a really interesting bubble tea style drink, which is a Sugarcane Caramel Latte. Eat your heart out Starbucks.

Vegan’s Delight

Healthy eating continues to be on trend, but Vegan’s Delight isn’t about being trendy. This down to earth shop doubles as a Caribbean mini market and takeout joint, focused on serving their customers food that does good for your taste buds and your physique. Located on Boston Road in the Northeast section of The Bronx, this is the ideal place for food on the go if you rather avoid the bevy of fast food chains surrounding nearby. Vegan’s Delight seems to always be packed, but the staff is swift and patient with you in case you have any questions. Thinking about what to try? Everything. Literally. I will admit, no matter what I purchase I always seem to walk out with an ackee patty in hand.

Antonio’s Trattoria

AntoniosTrattoria_2.JPG

Antonio’s Trattoria is a well-known Bronx staple, receiving local media coverage and celebrity diners alike because of its great food and history within the community. The beautiful brick interior, light fixtures and overall décor are statement setting, so mark your calendars for a Valentine’s Day dinner at Antonio’s Trattoria. This restaurant is nestled within the Little Italy section of The Bronx, with lots of establishments to venture into right before your reservation. It might make life easier to just hop in an Uber to get there. Although you can only order takeout for now, we remain hopeful that outdoor seating will become an option sooner rather than later.

Merchants NY To Open In Chelsea

As the city starts to reopen, so are new restaurants as  Merchants NY will be opening in a new Chelsea location (190 7th Ave) on June 22 for outdoor dining, relocating from its original home (112 7th Avenue) for more than 25 years.

Merchants NY - Food - Roast Chicken and Wine Glass 

Fully redesigned by Wid Chapman Architects, the multii-area restaurant features an outdoor cafe, bar, dining room, middle and back lounge featuring a plush, intimate seating concept in signature “living room” style. The menu will highlight classic American fare with a curated beer list by Certified Cicerone Anne Becerra as well as unique, signature crafted cocktails.

Designed by Wid Chapman Architects, the modern clubhouse style restaurant features four distinct areas: an expansive outdoor café, bar and dining room adjacent to a wall of bi-fold doors leading to the outdoor café, middle lounge and back lounge. The front bar and dining room are lined with rustic plaster walls and succulent filled cabinets that open up and add light to the room. The middle lounge offers a casual indoor “garden” room, with seating encased by whimsical low wood-clad plant walls and surrounded by a dynamic Manhattan-inspired mural. For those seeking a more intimate experience, the back lounge is outfitted with low lying velvet sofas, private nooks and a fireplace providing a sophisticated backdrop for unparalleled comfort. Merchants NY can accommodate private events from 20 to 200 guests.

“We are excited to celebrate 25 years of operations at Merchants NY and are ready to welcome our guests back with our friendly and dedicated service,” said Abraham Merchant, President and Chief Executive Officer of Merchant Hospitality Inc. “We have taken all necessary measures to keep staff and guests safe and socially distanced to ensure that Merchants NY becomes their much needed ‘home away from home’ after the last few months of lockdown,” added Merchant.

Chef Antelmo Ambrosio designed the Merchants NY menu to feature classic American fare including French Onion Soup, Grilled Cauliflower Steak, Roast Chicken and decadent burgers.  Certified Cicerone Anne Becerra has developed a curated beer list to complement Chef Ambrosio’s creations. And signature crafted cocktails such as the tequila-based Koicha NY and the glittering gin-based Rethink Paloma round out an extensive beverage program.

Beginning June 22, Merchants NY Café will be open daily from 12 PM to 11 PM. During Phase III of New York City’s P.A.U.S.E., the kitchen will be open until 2 AM and the bar will be open until 4 AM daily. Brunch will be served weekends from 11:30 AM until 4:30 PM.

Bubby's Chef/Owner Ron Silver states “We closed Bubby’s in late March because we wanted to take extra measures to protect our staff and customers. With the city and state making progress in numbers of cases and increasing protection methods, we decided it was the right time to come back. We’re starting slowly and know there’s a very long road ahead, but you have to start somewhere”

Exterior 3 - Now Open.png

“By reopening Bubby’s Tribeca for delivery/takeout, we’re excited to reengage with the community. We hope to provide the same friendly, comforting place that they’ve always been able to count on. We are longing for the busy, bustling experience just as much as everyone else, but until then we hope our food will provide some reprieve. We’re also introducing new menu items in the coming weeks like pie dough balls, pie making kits, frozen biscuits and other items customers can make at home to keep the Bubby’s experience alive even if they can’t dine inside the restaurant” said Bubby's Chef/Owner Ron Silver

You can currently place an order by delivery and curbside pickup available by calling 212-219-0666. Specials include Grab yourself a family feast of fried chicken, coleslaw, buttermilk biscuits, creamy mashed potatoes, chicken gravy and choice of pie. Serves 4 for $100.
