Rookie120 0 #3 August 17, 2006 Angeloe's!!!!!!!! It's down in Little Italy. Fiance and I ate there the night we got engaged. Best dam meal I ever had. Never had Italian like that place. Great wine! The place had it all.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paige 0 #4 August 17, 2006 Jeckyl and Hydes is awesome (in the city). Nothing fancy but a great theme place. Crawling with actors/waiters, wierd things to look at, and great drinks!!!! Needtojump and I had a great time there! Fun meal, good food (not great but better than 99% of other theme rest.), and an excellent atmosphere. Suitable for kids also, it's creepy but not scary.Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rdy2skydive 0 #7 August 17, 2006 Angelo's on Mulberry Street in Little Italy is great. My other favorite is the Bridge Cafe in South Street Seaport, near the Brooklyn Bridge. It was a tavern/bordello in the 1600's. It's got an interesting history and the food is great. Have a great trip! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lauras 0 #8 August 17, 2006 Fancy schmancy: Le Bernardin or Daniel Romantic: One If By Land, Two If By Sea. Steak: Peter Luger or Sparks Sushi: Kuruma Zushi Italian: Felidia These are all my expense account recommendations, btw. It's so much yummier when the company is picking up the tab!

Newbie 0 #11 August 17, 2006 Thanks, Sparks is on the menu for the trip as i haven't been there yet and i hear good stuff about it. Les Halles is good for hanger steaks too, that's one of our fav's. No expense accounts here, all comes out of our own pockets, but if it's really good food (i don't care much for the "in" place or ambience per se, but if the food is good....that's another thing) then we'll stretch our budget when we can. Thanks all for the recommends - keep 'em coming! "Skydiving is a door" Happythoughts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rdy2skydive 0 #16 August 17, 2006 And for seafood: Blue Water Grill in Union Square is fantastic. So is Aqua Grill in Soho. Also, check out Magnolia Bakery for dessert. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
usedtajump 1 #17 August 17, 2006 Il Vagabondo 351 East 62nd St. Great old time Italian place with great food and even has a bocci ball court inside. P Diddy was dining two tables away from us.The older I get the less I care who I piss off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SBS 0 #20 August 18, 2006 Stella Del Mare is really good, on Lexington just south of Grand Central...39th, maybe. There is a small family run french restaurant on the other side of Times Square, can't remember the name, but sooooo good. It's across from the Paramount Hotel. Sushi Zen on 44th, I think somewhere around 6th maybe. Sooooo good. Really expensive, maybe $150 a person, but breathtaking sushi...best I have ever had. Another sushi place just south of the corner of Bleeker and Thompson. Think the name is Tomoi or somesuch. Bond 45 is a good steakhouse, but the greatest part of them is the cheese that they make. There is a cheese platter of all different kinds that is amazing. Oh, Bobby Flay's place, the Mesa Grill. on 5th, I think, can't remember where. That's pretty good too. Anyway, those are the places that I like. Even if I have trouble finding them sometims. -S_____________ I'm not conceited...I'm just realistic about my awesomeness...

Newbie 0 #23 August 18, 2006 I heard good thing about this place, but i'm wary of the price tag that goes along with it. You been for lunch/dinner? Lunch is a cheaper and more likely option if we hit it. Any recommends on particular dishes? I hear the kobe is particularly good.

Thanks The Kobe Beef Skewers, the Rock Shrimp, and the Asparagus Spears. Yes, it's expensive, but one of the few in Manhattan actually worth it.
