Geez.....some of these suggestions are just tourist-crap joints. First off, make reservations ahead, and pick the restaurants that have prix fix lunch and dinner menus. You can eat at top notch restaurants, ya just need to work it:
Look at Union Square Cafe, Jean Georges. Many many more offer the $20.13 lunch, where you get a great app, choice of 2 entrees, and dessert. If you stick w water, it will be that cheap. Slightly higher prices for dinner. Also try Little India, think Havali West....in Chinatown, for the best chow fun, try Big Wong on Mott St; or, for dim sum, get there early, go to Golden Unicorn

Here's a dining guide for the Times Square area from a website I think is generally pretty good.

Momofuku Noodle Bar (or, if you want to spend a little more, one of David Chang's other restaurants - Ma Peche, Momofuku Ko, or Momofuku Saam Bar).
I almost posted to avoid Saam Bar with my East Village (Frank, Red Head) recs. I think it's so over rated. I lived next door for 9 years and only once did we have a meal that stood out as worth the hype.

I don't want to go back to Kushi after getting yakitori at Kushi.
It was just bad.

Were just up there for the Fourth. Went to Eataly which is perfect for taking kids to. Keep them occupied watching the cooks prepare bread and pasta. Variety of foods so plenty of options to choose from, just wish you could mix different eating areas as each "restaurant" is fully self contained.

Chinatown is another good option as really good Chinese food is not really readily available here.
Depending on when you go, restaurant week is coming up and they've been running some special restaurant weeks such as Italian and French.We had a great dinner at David Burke Townhouse which was a special Fourth of July menu for $35 for 3 courses with 4 options per course. One thing to be careful of is that some restaurants do not even allow children such as the Jean Georges restaurants.
One place we were going to try, but it was closed on the Fourth was DBGB Kitchen. Will have to try next visit.

Becco is good reasonably priced Italian, near the theater district. Third vote for Eataly - very fun.

The Green Table in Chelsea Market
Frank Restaurant in the East Village
Barn Joo in the Flatiron District
I lived in the east village for 12 years before moving here (just a couple years ago) and Frank was one of our favorites. Supper is another similar option (same owners). Red Head is a great spot for a cocktail and great food also in the East Village. In Union Square I've always loved Casa Mono. For brunch, Balthazar is still really good in Soho.
