"The finest restaurants in the world," reside in Trump Tower proclaims a sign near the building’s entrance. Not quite. At Trump Grill finding something that "fine" to eat is as difficult as singling out an “apprentice” on TV. Glossy wood paneling and gilded mirrors recall Atlantic City more than Midtown and seats are filled with misguided tourists hoping for a Donald sighting. New Yorkers are savvier. We know that despite what the sign reads, countless restaurants trump this spot. — Kathleen Squires
