penn station area
We need an intimate, casual place near Penn Station. We are open to food type and cost. Quality and intimate atmosphere are most important. Thanks for whatever ideas you have.
Under the Radar - East Village Recs
Pan,
Bar Basso is on Elizabeth between Houston and Prince.
Some fav items are codfish and potatoe app., grilled calamari app. basil tomatoe soup, a fish stew, and a variety of nice panini's- grilled properly with a little side salad. Apparently they have awesome french toast. Dessert--tapioca pudding with bruleed bananas--sssooo good. Sangria is average but other nice cocktails. Even at a busy hour they have lovely service.
Raouls in Soho?
Love Raoul's!!! You could have drinks at Aqua Grille (they have a little lounge at the front window) Enjoy your dinner at Raoul's

I think Bar Basso on Eliabeth St. would be perfect!! They have one large table in the back in a private area past the kitchen.
Many veggie options. Menu has a wide range of selections that should keep you in your budget..

Teens in Chelsea
Where to take 3 teens in Chelsea? We love Cafeteria but want to try something new this time.
locals' fave places to eat with kids?
Cafeteria in Chelsea. Good food for you and the husband, nice cocktails. Fun food for kids. Fried oreos and great mac and cheese. Outside seating which is great if weather permits. Otherwise the noise level is pretty high which is helpful if your kids have there own high noise level!!
corner bistro

Escaping tomorrow and want a long relaxed lunch. Want a spot were I can sit and read while enjoying my lunch. Tea at the Carlyle is the atmosphere I'm looking for. Any suggestions? Location and food type flexible.
belly dancers

Getting married at City Hall on Friday...
Perry Street is lovely at lunch. Open beautiful space but seems more intimate than Jean Georges.
If you want small romantic I love Little Owl (check to be sure they are open for lunch)
Congrads and enjoy your day!!!!
louie's lunch---yuck
They must have changed the pototoe salad because ours was really great. Boiled eggs, a bit of mustard, onion served on a plate ( not sure of the price).
Certainly the best part of the meal.

What has happened????
Went yesterday and it was an awful burger. The meat was over done and dry. I would have sent it back but it was 3:55 and it was clear that they were wanting to close promptly at 4. The phone rang loudly 3 times and they did not answer it, I assume to avoid take out orders.
They are on the way to their yearly vacation so hopefully they will rest up and come back to bring us great burgers again.
The potatoe salad was very yummy.
Foodie B-day Dinner
How about a birthday lunch or brunch? I think Perry Street is the best value in the city. $24 for a 3 courses. Amazing!!

Thanx Sam,
Yes I agree the food is not the best but I feel a need to go pay a final visit to 'the institution'.

Has anyone been recently? They are not taking any more reservations so I was wondering what the wait has been like.
