Papillon or ??

Looking for resto in the 54th & Lex ave area for lunch (not necessarily brunch) this Saturday.
Don't know this area. Found Papillon which appears to be somewhat pedestrian. Am I
wrong?
Any inexpensive (under $20 entrees) suggestions other than Indian would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks in advance.

      I've not been there - you might also look at the prix fixe at Pampano.

      I've eaten once at Papillon and would agree that it is pedestrian. What about the prix fixe at the Aquavit Cafe - close by, and should fit your budget.

        Agreed. Papillon is not very good.
