You can dress up for anyplace you like - no one will turn you away for being overdressed.
Are you looking for gourmet cuisine and an upscale budget?
For seafood the best in NYC is Le Bernardine - not so far from there. Also excellent- but a little less pricey is the Sea Grill at Rock Center. Are those in your budget range (check menupages.com) or are you looking for a diferent range?

Then don't go to Le Bernardin. It's very good, but the lower end tasting menu is going to set you back $270, not incliuding drinks, taxes and tip.
DB Bistro Moderne is a lower cost alternative. Good bistro food and definitely within your price range. It's one of Daniel Bouloud's restaurants - the lower end version.

I would recommend Le Bernadin. You cannot get the tasting menu but they have a 4 course menu for $108 per person, so after wine and all the tab WILL be close to $300 but the food is trancendent. Nothing else in the area will come close, I don't think. Another less expensive possibility for seafood is Esca, one of Mario Batali's places on 43rd and 9th but I have not been there so cannot comment.
