I think we're going with Lupa. Just looked at the menu and it looks perfect. Thanks!

Pp here. Well, my personal fave is peter lugar's (steakhouse) in brooklyn, though.

Thanks, PP. Both look great. Any others?

Blue Ribbon is around there somewhere. Yum!
Also, Lupa. (Mario Batalli)

I'm meeting family in NY Saturday and we want to meet at a restaurant in the West Village for an early dinner. Looking for something casual and not too pricey, someplace we can eat and have a boat load of cocktails. Any recommendations would help. TIA
