Any suggestions for a very nice(celebrating teenage daughter's bd) pre broadway theater dinner on a Thurs. night in Manhatten?

There are hundreds of possibilities! What kind of food do you want, how much do you want to spend, and what kind of atmosphere are you looking for?

do a web search for arthur schwartz. also try the words " food maven" he is a new york "foodie" and on his site has a list of great new york rest. w/a few choices in the theatre district.
my choice is B. Smiths, in the forties on 8th ave.

if you like Asian food, there's a lively,fun, restaurant called Ruby Foo's on Broadway right in the middle of all the action. Joe Allen's is a favorite haunt of celebs--it's on 46 St. between 8th and 9th Aves.You can find Arthur Schwartz's website at WOR.com

I would reccomend looking @ zagat.com and do a search by neighborhood.

My two favorites in the area are Orso and Coco Pazzo Teatro.

For a FUN dinner, try the Starlight Dinner on B'way at 47th or 48th St.

Downstairs is "Forbidden Broadway", an "off Broadway" show which is HYSTERICAL. The show is a take off of all the shows on B'way and is so funny, you will fall off your chairs.

Upstairs, it's a "50's ish dinner, with fun (but good) food and all the waiters and waitresses are singers and if your teen isn't shy, the mike is open for a song.

What show are you seeing?

Trust me on the Dinner, your teen will love the place, and if not, there are lots of other choices in the area.
