Finally, there are good options for dining near Penn Station

Top chef Laurent Tourondel is expanding his presence near Penn Station — creating a dining oasis in a desert of notoriously bad food.

Tourondel’s L’Amico, which serves casual, rustic Italian fare — from wood-fired pizzas to tasty pastas and grilled fish —at 849 Avenue of the Americas, adjacent to the Eventi Hotel, is killing it brilliantly.

So is The Vine, Tourondel’s fun hotel lobby bar, which shares a kitchen with L’Amico but comes with its own address at 851 Avenue of the Americas.

Now Tourondel — who founded the BLT brand, as in BLT Steak, BLT Fish, BLT Prime, and more — is planning on opening his own steakhouse next door to L’Amico, Side Dish has learned.

Tourondel declined to comment. However, we hear the new restaurant is slated to open this fall.
