NYC eating places??

johnnyroper

Off to NYC in a few weeks and was wondering if anyone can recommend some decent restaurants??

stopping on madison avenue and will be with my wife and 2.5 year old.
so i am looking for places that are child friendly and that do not require shirt/trousers etc as i am more of a jeans and T shirt kind of man.no places like maccy d's etc please just somewhere to sit down and get some decent food in laid back enviroment.

Schnippers

Minutes from Times Square, but a million miles away in style. Very relaxed, child friendly and really good food.

Apricot

Simply Pasta Nr Times Square - West 41st street
It was a busy lunchtime when I went there but it was the best meal I had in New York and very reasonably priced as well. The decor is fab but its got a very relaxed atmosphere and there were a few families eating in there

P.J. Clarkes, next door to The Empire Hotel (which, incidentally, I'd also recommend staying at lol) at 44 W. 63rd Street (over the road from the Lincoln Center)
