You can’t miss the bright red entrance to Redeye Grill, which sits just 50 feet from Carnegie Hall. Its name comes from the dreaded overnight flight linking the West and East coasts, and that link is exactly what inspires its seafood-heavy menu and its design. The soaring dining room features Mission-style furnishings and is anchored by a shrimp, sushi, and smoked fish bar, flanked by giant bronze shrimp sculptures. Nightly jazz on the balcony keeps diners’ toes tapping.
