Pub Plates Meet Mission-Style Burritos at Penn Station
Settle into a wooden booth for pasta and specialty cocktails, or follow an assembly line built around naturally raised proteins and homemade hot sauces. The contrast spans the Amtrak Upper Level and the LIRR concourse.
Amtrak and LIRR Dining
Before the Arena
Kabooz's Bar & Grille sits on the Amtrak Upper Level inside Penn Station. Dark wooden booths line the dining area beneath hanging drum lights. A long wooden bar offers counter seating for a solo meal. Choose a burger or pasta from the American menu, with specialty cocktails available alongside the food. The restaurant also serves weekend brunch. It is a pre-show stop for Madison Square Garden.
California at the Counter
Mission-style burritos and bowls lead the menu at Dos Toros Taqueria. The shop occupies Space C123 in Penn Station's LIRR concourse. Naturally raised proteins and homemade hot sauces anchor its assembly-line approach. Scratch-made guacamole rounds out the meal. For an early start, doors open at 7:00 AM daily. Closing is 11:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 10:00 PM on Sunday. Online ordering is also available.
A Matter of Appetite
Kabooz's Bar & Grille and Dos Toros Taqueria offer two different answers to a Penn Station meal. The former pairs American staples such as burgers and pasta with specialty cocktails and booth or bar seating. The latter centers Mission-style burritos and bowls on naturally raised proteins, homemade hot sauces, and scratch-made guacamole. The contrast is menu and setting, a pub meal on the Amtrak Upper Level versus an assembly-line taqueria in the LIRR concourse.
