Restaurant Help
We are finally seeing Spamalot tomorrow for the 2pm matinee. After we are going to see the tree do a little shopping and want to have dinner around 6.
I was hoping you guys could give me some inspiration. I don't care where the restaurant is, just want something different. I work in midtown so I would like to get out of the times square area. I don't care what kind of food although we are not fans of Indian.
Restaurants that DH has already vetoed are:
Zarela Rosa Mexicano Any of Mario Batali's places Becco Delfrisco City Lobster Bar Americain Ruths Chris
We have reservations at La Masseria but I was thinking of getting out of that area altogether.

Re: Restaurant Help

Re: Restaurant Help
I would love to do that but that is just another veto by DH.
I just made reservations at Morimoto and Del Posto. I think I need a 12 step program.
Now I have 3 reservations!

Ipanema is on 46th between 5th and 6th. They have Brazilian/South American/Portuguese food. I like the chicken with mushroms and garlic sauce or the house steak.

Re: Restaurant Help
What are your husband's reasons for his vetoes?
If he vetoed Artisinal, he'd probably veto Swizz, but I like it. It's Swiss--they do a great fondue, but they have other interesting things too.
If you really want to get out of the area & go to tribeca, I'd recommend Le Cercle Rouge, if your DH isn't totally anti-French.

Re: Restaurant Help
I also second going to Tribeca, We went to a phenominal Greek restaurant called Thalassa.
It is located at 179 Franklin Street, New York City (212) 941-7661..
We went there, and then came up to see A chorus line... They even asked us if we were making a show...
Then there are the usuals-- but I am sure you need reservations months in advance:
Gramercy Tavern Gotham Bar and Grille Danielle
BRGuest restaurants are my go to places when I know I want good food and reasonable... Always have a good meal at any of them in any part of NYC..

Was going to suggest this as well. We went a couple of months ago and loved it.
