If you like Spanish food (from Spain, not Mexico - it's an entirely different cuisine), Costa del Sol on 50th Street and Ninth Avenue is wonderful - for $25, you get a complete dinner with a ton of choices - AND IT's GOOD! You get a choice of soup or salad - (I never order salad when there's another choice, so I can't comment). My favorite soup is the Caldo Gallego - from Galecia Spain - a delicious hearty soup with bacon, chorizo sausage, white beans, kale and other vegetables; you can also order the cold gazpacho or a chicken soup with noodles. You have a choice of more than twenty entrees - at least six different shrimp dishes - my favorites are the very lightly floured shrimp with wine sauce and the garlic shrimp - HUGE portions. You can also order salmon, paella, a whole lobster with butter sauce, various chicken dishes, mixed seafoods, veal., pork chops. These come with saffron rice and string beans - large platters on the table for everyone. You also get dessert and coffee - the cheesecake is good, but you can have flan or rice pudding or icecream. As if all this food weren't enough of a bargain, if two of you order this three course dinner, you can get a bottle of red or white wine for only $6 more ($3 each)

The Joshua Tree on 46th and Ninth is a very comfortable restaurant (the booths upstairs), and has a very friendly, competent wait staff. I like the lobster (served with a baked potato and corn on the cob) - $15. They have gooey desserts.

The Hourglass Tavern on 46th and Ninth - good food, large portions, very reasonable prices and excellent service

There are so many great restaurants in New York that it can be hard to choose. One that I really like is Joe Allen. It is small. Food is casual. Lots of celeb sightings. Right in the theatre district. There are many others from A-Z. If you don't mind real casual, you can always walk a couple of blocks to Times Square and eat at Bubba Gump or any number of casual chains. Read the reviews. Note that trying to eat right before the shows, restaurants are packed. At 8:00 they empty out. At 11:00 they fill back up.

If you happen to like Italian food, you can go to Carmine's which on W. 44 Street between 7th-8th Avenues.
You can also try Red Eye Grill on the corner of W. 56 Street and 7th Avenue.

Carmine's but bring your appetite a corned beef or pastrami sandwich can easily feed 4 hungy adults and don't order 1 dessert each just get 1 piece of cake for the entire table
