Grand central station restaurants?

[ffutures]

For something I want to write, is there anything like a good burger restaurant in or very near Grand Central Station in New York?

In Grand Central Station, there is now a food court on the lower level -- it has a couple of eat-in places, including a deli. But when I was commuting and wanted a quick but good meal, I'd go to the counter at the Oyster Bar, and have a bowl of clam chowder and one of their desserts. They have both Manhattan (red) and New England (white) clam chowder.

Not quite what I'm after - the protagonist is taking a couple of teenagers for a quick meal.

In the Feline Wizard books, one of the cats is very good at begging pastrami from the counter of a sit-in sandwich restaurant....

Yes, I remember that, but it doesn't feel quite right for this situation (though a familiar feline face may possibly be making an appearance...)

The counter is quick, unlike the table area. I was usually done in less than half an hour - including dessert.

On the other hand, you could have them go to the lower level food court area, and decide whether they were going to do sushi, indian, pizza, or chicken, and have one stake out a booth while the others brought the food over.

The Junior's and offers both a place to sit and a counter for take out, and I think Mendy's does the same.

OK, that sounds good - thanks!
