Orbit (CLOSED)

Eclectic bistro food, such as those ubiquitous meatball sliders and penne alla vodka, are the eats you’ll find at this publike East Harlem spot. Sports-watching locals dig into thick-cut pork chops in a garlicky Worcestershire sauce or a $10 ten-ounce “Orbit Burger”—Angus beef with sweet chili relish on an English muffin. On weekends, tuck into the deliciously oozy chocolate Bomba cake to the tunes of live musicians (past entertainment has included Gypsy and Latin bands).
