23rd St Between 7th Ave and 6th Ave

Situated in the heart of Chelsea, this stretch of 23rd Street has a rich combination of different storefronts, apartments, restaurants and bars. Though not as nice as some of the surrounding streets, if only because of the crowds and traffic, there's still a rather relaxing air here.

The 7th Avenue site starts off with a handful of eateries including Chelsea Papaya and the (seemingly new, and brilliantly-named) Wrapido. A Dominos pizza and a Garden of Eden gourmet grocery sit at-odds with each other on the southern half of the street, while Monster Sushi sits one door away. Further down the street, technology-oriented shops take hold with Tekserve and BestBuy both sitting near 6th Avenue.
