If its gonna be 12 or so ppl...places for food/drink should be a place like Reservoir on University (11th st?). 5 TVs big tables, never too full during the day, so maybe calling ahead might not even be necessary. Also, Cedar which is close by there. Josie Woods which has a good juke box, TVs, 2 pool tables, and, most importantly Golden Tee which I will pwn anyone at. Reservoir also has pool and GT.

All of the above have decent bar grub and are all cheap.

i've done dinner at several all you can eat brazillian bbq places, and i like them a lot, and personally, i have no problem paying a pile of money for dinner every once in a while. but i don't want there to be a price barrier that would cause even a single person who wants to attend to say "eh, i'd like to go but i'd prefer not to blow $x on dinner tonight."

Sorry but 72nd street, Saturday nite, cheap and hang out for a few hours is a difficult if not impossible mission. An alternate would be to hit a place like Westside Brewing Co (340 Amsterdam ave & 76th (212) 721-2161 for beer/burger or Dynasty (212-355-1200) on 511 Lex & 48th 2nd floor for some primo Chinese food (there are a lot of private dinning rooms) and then hit a local pub to hang out.

Re: OT: STTF NYC Get together
 

well, the 72nd street thing was brought on by having found a cool looking restaurant that was inexpensive. there is no tie to that area beyond "we know a good looking-ish place in this area to do the dinner part of the night, is there anything else to do around there?"

Re: OT: STTF NYC Get together
 

Yeah, $50 for dinner w/o drinks is a bit much guys. There's even a similar Brazilian place in Brooklyn somewhere that charges maybe half that.

If we're doing that kind of restaurant and the BBQ is out, what about Houlihan's? It's in the mid-60's on the East Side and I really love their food/they have no problems seating 12.

Re: OT: STTF NYC Get together
 

for easy food, TGIF is on 54th and Lex as well...

Re: OT: STTF NYC Get together
 

Got it then you may want to consider:

Virgils's BBQ on 44th between Broadway and 6th (Good BBQ and a great tequila selection.
Zocalo (Mexican) on 82nd between 3rd and Lex (High end mexican with cold brew and tequila).
There is also a pile of Korean BBQ joints that are easy on the wallet around 36th street between 5th and 6th.

Let me know what you decide as I am trying to get up there for a few drinks.

Re: OT: STTF NYC Get together
 

thanks for the assist.

durron: i think that the place we were looking at was "dallas jones bbq" no?

there's another location in the village area at 178 W Houston, i can't call right now, phone 212 741 7390.

they are a couple blocks from the comedy cellar, and the area is rife with clubs, pubs, lounges, cafes, whatever. also, for those so inclined there's slutty nyu girls.

lemme know if you're able to give them a call.
