Guest web_norah Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 it all depends on what you want to spend....i dont do places uptown or midtown....West VillageSohoEast Villagethere are plenty of options but it all depends on $$ and the number of peoplea large group is a hassle in terms of restaurants that are cheap.

Guest Electric Eel Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 we just have to take into consideration that our show starts at 8, so it would be best to be around that area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LESjunkie Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 let norah and i choose a place. 5 people sounds terrific. I will look like a pimp as always. good times. we'll make sure u get to the theatre on time. PS, you dont need to be in midtown to make it on time to a show. u just need to be on the west side. so i say west village or Chelsea. there's tons of places. where is your hotel?

Guest web_norah Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 West Village....i know shitload of placesa few moderate price choices:AOC on Bleecker (French --very cute bistro style place)EN (ok not so moderate but the place is absolutely hot Japanese brasserie)La Palapa (Mexican, good cocktails, menu is decent and the price isnt reasonable).i cant think of any other places right now, Evan can probably add some more choices.

Guest Electric Eel Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 Our hotel is The Drake 440 Park Avenue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest web_norah Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 Park and what the cross street? sounds like the Upper side of Manhattan....if you have to be somewhere at 8pm and we assume it is somewhere near Times Square, Evan is right, best bet is eat somewhere West...and a cabbie will get you there quick.

Guest Electric Eel Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 I'm not too familiar with NY, we trust whatever you guys tell us. So dinner somewhere west sounds good to me Heres the hotels locationThe theater we are going to is between broadway and 8th ave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
