You may not be onstage at the Metropolitan Opera House, but first-time visitors or opera-goers should treat themselves to a special meal - it might just make the whole experience a little more extraordinary.

Opera attendees interested in booking with the Hotel Mela in New York City might want to try the deliciously rustic-looking Nick and Toni's Cafe for pre-show dinner. The restaurant opens two hours before the curtain goes up on the evening's performance, so you need not worry about missing your show.

Organic food eaters will appreciate this restaurant's approach to food, with their use of organic and locally-raised ingredients in their cuisine. Their dinner menu has a healthy range of dishes for meat eaters and vegetarians alike. The house-made ravioli is filled with stokes farm cheese, pumpkin, amaretti and brown butter, while the duck breast comes with house made mushroom ravioli.

If you'd rather sample light and quick foods, Nick and Toni's Café also present several different pizzas, from the traditional Margherita to the curious scampi with rock shrimp, pesto and arugula
