Please advise. Thanks!!!! Fri Nov 21 06:39:58 -0800 2008 232521 italianagambino 1 4191486 It's definitely a nice place, and aside from Hangawi, the only vegetarian place I've been to in Manhattan. It's a lot nicer than the Candle Cafe on Third Avenue. Fri Nov 21 07:46:33 -0800 2008 4191322 10985 MMRuth 1 4192141 Candle 79 is very nice. The downstairs area has a few booths lined opposite the bar, and upstairs there are a few corner nooks with booths lined up in the middle. I go there every year for my wedding anniversary and we get the two-seater upstairs, right in front of the window where there's usually a lovely large flowering plant. If you call ahead with info about a special occasion, they will definitely take it into account (we got free dessert!). Fri Nov 21 11:16:20 -0800 2008 4191322 53423 PlomeekSoup
