Creator's Key Takeaways

We love the nostalgia, and you can't go wrong with hamburgers and milkshakes.

What we love about the Mason Jar is the brunch is fantastic, the cocktails are strong, and it has a very homestyle feel to the restaurant.

What we love about 150 Central Park is the food is beautifully crafted, the service is impeccable and it just feels special.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider booking specialty dining for breakfast at Johnny Rockets as it's complimentary.
Try the lemon tart at Hooked Seafood for a great dessert.
Plan for a nap after eating at Giovanni's Italian Kitchen due to carb-heavy dishes.
Save room for steak at Chops Grill and don't fill up on sides.

Cost of specialty diningConsider which spots are worth the splurge; some like Johnny Rockets cost extra while others like Guys Burger Joint on Carnival are free.
Limited menu optionsAt Hooked Seafood, if you're not a seafood fan, the menu is pretty limited; at Empire Supper Club, the tailored menu offers fewer options.
