When I lived in NYC, we'd walk across the park to JG Melon for burgers, fries, and bloody bulls. They'd always have tennis matches playing on the TVs at the bar.

“We’ve been known to send someone over to Melon 30ish before close to put our name down for a table. It’s a casual dinner spot dishing out classic American fare (burgers, club sandwiches, steaks) to a consistent, delicious degree. Our big secret is to order the cup of chili, small and nostalgic, to warm your soul on colder nights.”

“Very good burger. Very New York. I thought it was hilarious this was referenced in ‘The Goldfinch’.”
