This is for food lovers, by a food lover. I live in Murray Hill, a neighborhood on the Eastside of Manhattan. I've been living here for years, which has allowed me to try all the restaurants in the area. There are a ton of places to choose from, so let me share some of the best one's around.

Everyone loves good sushi, especially in this area. There's a new addition to the many Japanese restaurants in the area and it's called Chado Sushi. This place is not cheap, but it's worth paying the price as the executive chef comes from Sushi of Gari. Trust the chef and try his Omakase, his selection of fish with all his special sauces.

Everyone deserves a Philly Cheesesteak from time to time. If you're going to spoil yourself, then go with Carl's Cheesesteak's. I've had these sandwiches in Philadelphia, in NYC and several other parts of the country, but this is hands down, one of the best! You can't go wrong with cheese whiz and onions on your hero.

Fish tacos, wow! If you haven't had fish tacos, then wait until you check out one of Murray Hill's newest spots, Biblioteca. Try these tacos with one of their suggested tequilas and you'll walk out of there with a smile.

Chinese food is extremely popular for delivery. Grand Sichuan has American Chinese food, but they also have some authentic dishes that are delicious. Hot Pot, which is a common dish during the Chinese New Year, is available there and it's extremely affordable. It's also very healthy and tasty, but make sure to get the sauces on the side.

If you want something more romantic, Barbes is a true gem in the area. It's away from most of the action, so most people don't know it. However, it's always crowded for good reason. This French Moroccan cuisine is priced well, with main courses up to $30. The staff is also extremely accommodating.

For a large group dining experience in Murray Hill, family style Italian is the way to go. Look no further than Patsy's Pizzeria. They make some of the best pizza and pasta in NYC and you can find them in several different locations. That must mean they're doing something right!

Now get out there and go eat! This list will leave your stomach very satisfied as I've been eating in the neighborhood for years. These are the best places you can eat in Murray Hill!
