PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Emy MooreThis New York institution's claim to fame is the rich, fluffy cheesecake, which comes in several varieties like red velvet and devil’s food—but we like to work our way up to the sweet slab of loveliness. Beginning with the perfectly salty-sour pickles and other crunchy bites that are served before every meal, little ones can peruse the appropriately-titled Junior Menu and choose from a selection of kiddie diner favorites like grilled cheese and chicken fingers. . https://www.timeout.com/new-york-kids/restaurants/theme-restaurants-in-nyc

3. Hard Rock Cafe
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Emy MooreWe know, most New Yorkers avoid Times Square, but this Hard Rock Café is nirvana for little music fans raised on the Beatles and the Stones. While you wait for your table, ooh and ahh over the memorabilia filling the walls: James Brown’s golden suit, Billy Joel’s motorcycle, the doors from the Abbey Road studios and signed guitars everywhere. The music is loud and the beats are rockin’—even the most cynical New Yorkers will be air drumming and chair dancing. . https://www.timeout.com/new-york-kids/restaurants/theme-restaurants-in-nyc
4. Ellen’s Stardust Diner
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Joshua KaufmanThis whimsical spot may scream that it’s catering to tourists, but considering you’re a tourist with kids in tow, this is the place for you. At its Broadway location, servers — dressed in colorful bowling shirts and poodle skirts — sing show tunes and dance on the edges of the old-school red booths. A true diner, its kids menu offers smaller portions and prices, which is a nice treat when you’ve spent a bit too much seeing the latest musical. It can get crowded, so take the kids during the day. . https://thepointsguy.com/guide/best-nyc-restaurants-for-kids-families/
5. Carmine's Italian Restaurant
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Tiffany WoodsCarmine’s is known for their enormous portions of salads and pasta. Everything is served family style, so you’ll definitely want to bring your appetite. We selected two entrees for our family of four and had plenty of food leftover.
If you have a family with picky tastes, you may want to look at the menu in advance. That way, you can choose the one or two items that you’ll order and won’t have to have that discussion at the restaurant. For us, we chose one adventurous pasta dish and one more traditional dish.
But Carmine’s isn’t just about big portions – the food is absolutely delicious! The lively atmosphere makes it one of the most fun restaurants in NYC – perfect for families. . https://www.familytravelmagazine.com/the-best-kid-friendly-restaurants-in-nyc/
