This week we asked readers what is their favorite Bronx eatery. (Editor’s Note: Thanks to Norwood resident Helene Hartman-Kutnowsky, member of Community Board #7, for suggesting this question.)

It’s really hard to pick one out because I have so many. I can’t remember which is the best one, but Nicky’s Pizzeria is good. They have pasta and they’ve got meatballs. The meatballs, definitely the meatballs, are my favorite. I think Subway is good, I always get my sandwiches there.

My favorite restaurant is the Star Restaurant on Webster Avenue. The chicken is good and they have a nice soup over there and they have good bread too. The A & E Deli on East 204th Street–they make the best sandwiches over there: the bacon, egg and cheese, a hamburger or turkey sandwich or steak sandwich, they’re all good.

It’s called The Pine now, but it used to be called Frankie and Johnny’s. It’s on Bronxdale Avenue. They have this nice big plate of parmesan, either veal or shrimp, and it’s big enough to share. The prices are very reasonable and the service is very nice. You can get a good burger at the Wendy’s way over near Einstein Hospital, it’s delicious. The burgers are superb, but it takes two buses to get there.

My favorite is the Bedford Park Pizza, I enjoy the chicken rolls. I always eat there.

I was just thinking where to have a meal today and this is the spot to come to: Johnny’s on City Island. And especially after they remodeled it, it’s definitely a nicer place to come to for seafood. There’re a lot of chicken spots, but there’s one in particular in Castle Hill–I go there for my burgers and my Philly cheese steaks. I think it’s called Kansas Fried Chicken. The best pizza is also in Castle Hill called Top Banana, that’s the spot.
