    My favorite pizza place nearby is NY Pizza Suprema on 8th ave. and 30th st. Not a fancy place at all, but a delicious plain slice and margherita slice. Made the NYT's top 10 pizza places in the city-I love it. They've been around for a while.

    There's a wide variety of food places around MSG.

    If you want something inexpensive, just get down the escalator and go to the Penn Station food court. You have from McDonalds to TGI Fridays, Krispy Kreme donuts to Cinnabon... :)

    Stout, the pre-party bar, has good food (burgers, chicken fingers, the usual bar food) but it's gonna be crowded and it's not so cheap :). You can always check the Manhattan mall food court. It's on the bottom floor and you can choose from literally every type of food you want, from Indian to Italian, from Japanese to Mcdonalds. And you can sit in a clean area :)

    you can also check Brother Jimmys for great BBQ, but get ready to pay a lot more :)

    I hope it helped :)

    PS: If I could only get a MSG 2 ticket... :)

    Best pizza in NYC my opinion. I go there anytime I'm at the garden for anything. Say hello to Joey if you see him there....

    walk a couple of blocks to korea town and be adventurous.

    don't listen to anyone in this thread besides the guy who said pizza suprema.

    you can go to a diner anytime and fat annie's is just another place with bullshit bar food.

    go eat something you won't be able to find at home.

    to the op-

    if you want polish food, you're gonna have to either go to greenpoint, brooklyn (which has an enormous polish community) or to the east village around 10th street and 3rd avenue to find polish or polish style fare.

    there's a balkan restaurant on 38 between 7 and 8 called djerdan where you can find pierogies and similar shit to polish cuisine. the spicing will be slightly different, but its still eastern european food...you can get all of same stuff you can get in a polish restaurant.

    also on 38 between 7 and 8 is ben's...good ny style deli. hardly epic, definitely not the best in nyc, but solid enough. the corned beef is good.

    dong hai on 39 for asian food. they were rated one of the top 10 chinese places in the usa. lan sheng and szechuan gourmet will work as well.

    check out olympic pita for good shwarma or falafel. if you go, make sure you get your order in a laffa. pita is for noobs.


    if you arent looking to stray too far form msg, these should work.

    Its a block from MSG on the corner of 8th Ave. and W 34th St. They have great diner food, I went there after the Muse show last month and had a huge breakfast, it really hit the spot.
