Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Make it this one if you are going to NY. I bought several books and this was the best laid out of all the books and it doesn’t try to be a resource for ALL restaurants or ALL stores – it just gets to the best.I loved nearly every recommendation. The only one that I had a beef with was the “Kid friendly” rating of Mickey Mantles. Not sure how a small bowl of pasta for $10 and no sides is “kid friendly.”

⭐thanks!

⭐This book was very helpful. I enjoyed the brief history of NYC and the simple easy descriptions of different sections of NYC.They have very good suggestions on Cabs, Subways, Buses, Eating, where to stay, suggested itineraries, etc. Loads and loads of contact information for museums and sights to see.Easy to follow index to look up anything you might want to do or need info on.

⭐Great book if you’ve never been to New York before. I found it extemely helpful in planning our trip with lots of advice and “secret” things I would never have seen or planned on. Has a lot about prices, places and pitfalls. The only thing I would have liked to see was some information on travel from the ports.
