My old work alma mater, Condé Nast, (which owned Gourmet Magazine) has put out a handy new list of hot New York City Restaurants by Condé Nast Traveler which I recommend you check out:
“Looking for the best new restaurants in New York City? You won’t have to look hard. Among all sorts of newness—exhibits, gallery shows, and a revolving door of hotels—the city that never sleeps certainly eats, eats again, and then eats some more. Dozens of new restaurants open their doors here every month, joining what’s already an impressive collection of establishments. But which are worth visiting? That’s what our editors have set out to answer with a new list:” https://www.cntraveler.com/gallery/best-new-restaurants-nyc updated every season.
