Staying at the Intercontinental Park Lane and looking for some fun, interesting dining spots around town and don't mind venturing out of neighborhood. Somewhere for 2 young at heart 50 year old jaded New Yorkers who like rock n roll music, good food and a fabulous atmosphere.
Any ideas?

I am following up on my pre theatre dinner last night at The Lambs Club Bar. The crowd was energetic, the bar was crowded, the noise level lively, and overall, a nice looking well-behaved professional after work crowd.
Our table was reserved in the ample seating area near the bar, yet away from the bulk of the crowd.
The bar menu offered a full menu, comfortable sized tables, and the food and drinks were served graciously and promptly. We each ordered an appetizer, burrata and a grilled artichoke, then split the Club burger, which was a perfect medium rare, juicy and flavorful. We loved the art deco design of the space and found it to be a nice grown up place to kick back after work.
The only glitch we experienced was that our first course arrived before our silverware did. Other than that, the staff was attentive, we did not feel rushed, and we had plenty of time to get to the show.
We had to leave before the jazz band started to play but it looked like it would have been a nice addition. We would definitely go back.

Tough to get a last minute res but snagged one at The Lamb's Club Bar. It looks perfect for 2 very tired NY'ers who need a mid-week break.
Thx

Anyone out there know of an Armenian//Western Asian restaurant near the High Line?

I"m taking out a friend for her 50th birthday after work. We'll stop at the Red Lion for Happy Hour, then out for tapas afterward. We want good tapas, somewhere not overrun with skinny jeans and college students, good sangria, and a more adult (but not stuffy) crowd. We want fun and good food on an early Friday evening.

Well, I want it to be a real NY experience for our guests & their children so in this context it means , a good vibe, good music, drinks for the adults, and decent food that we can all enjoy that they won't get in MD.
