Restaurants near Beacon Hotel, NYC upper westside
Will be staying with four friends, for three nights. Have plans to eat at Ouest our first night.
Going to see "Priscilla" our next night. Ideas needed for restaurants that are good, and mid-priced (entrees in low $20s?) , please.
Final day/night is totally unplanned thusfar. Good places for brunch/lunch near the hotel?
Thanks!

There is a pretty good Chinese restaurant across the street from Tip-Top Shoes on 72 between Broadway and Columbus where Elena Kagan used to eat before she became a Supreme Court Justice. When she was being questioned before the Senate, Lindsay Graham asked what she was doing Christmas Day (in realtionship to the Times Square bomber), and she said, "You know, like all Jews, I was probably at a Chinese restaurant.”

Yes, I am back! Loved the upper west side neighborhood and the hotel location. Love the Beacon, too.
We ate at Cafe Luxembourg our first night, with a New Yorker friend, to celebrate her birthday. It was quite good and reasonably priced. My seared scallops were a special that night, for $29.
Ate another late night breakfast meal at Viand, right next door to the hotel. A diner-type restaurant with excellent service, an expansive menu, reasonable prices, and good (not great) food.
The Fairway market across from the hotel is a great place to get cheeses, prepared salads, berries, yoghurts, etc. So we ate one dinner in our room, and kept breakfast foods on hand, too. So perfect for what we were looking for.
(I have posted a mini-report on the hotel, also.)
