A group of college friends are planning a going away dinner for one of us. We want it to be:
-a place that we can most likely linger (not be rushed out the door)
-be less than $50pp including alcohol (even less would be idea- BYOB would work)
-include at least some gluten free options (I'm the GF person- it doesn't have to be a dedicated menu, I would just like a couple of options)
- We don't care if it's a whole in the wall type of place
-ethnic food is fine (we especially like Spanish type food and tapas)
- we are coming from Penn station/Grand Central station so somewhere accessible to both locations would be ideal- but we can work with it.

Can anyone help me out? There will be 5 25 year old former college roommates getting together for the first time in awhile. Thanks a lot.

What's the best bar to watch football in on Sundays? I am located in Southern Westchester, but anywhere in the county will do. Thanks

Hi Chowhounders!

My parents and sister are coming in from upstate and I need to take them to a nice place for dinner. We will be in midtown east ( by grand central, Rockefeller center), but wouldn't mind walking 10 blocks or so for the right place. I would like to only spend around 30 dollars a person, and it would be great if that included drinks. Am I dreaming?

My sister is a vegetarian and I can't eat gluten. My parents aren't super adventurous eaters- so although I am open to ethnic foods, they like to recognize dishes on the menu. Whole in the wall is okay.

Any help you all can give me would be very appreciated! Thanks!
