Soho recommendations

[nycgirl08]

Can anyone recommend any good restaurant in Soho (near Prince st, mercer) that is not too expensive? (under $20 entrees) Any cuisine. Thanks.

I agree with snack on thomson and I'd defintiely add 100 acres on macdougal to the list - it has a great burger and wonderful other entres. If you're in the mood for tapas - try out Boqueria and Bar Carrera

I 2nd 100 Acres, I always forget that place! I've been there a few times and it's always good.

cafe falai. v good italian on lafayette below prince. not cheap but def reasonable.

When I looked at their dinner menu, it looked more expensive than Lupa, which makes me question how "reasonable" it is. Is the food as good or better than Lupa's?

[il Trifulau]

You know who's food is better than Lupa's? Aurora and Pepolino.

[Pan]

I haven't tried either, but I appreciate the recommendations.

[il Trifulau]

Lupe's.
Café Noir
Ideya
Boqueria
Ben's Pizza
Mooncake Foods
Caffé Tina
to name a few

[Desidero]

Have you eaten anything at Caffe Tina that would qualify as edible? I have not. If you have any recommendations, I'm all ears.

I always get their salumi and cheese plates. My wife likes their omelets. The pizza is good enough.
It's an old school SoHo spot run by authentic I-talians, so I cut it some slack.

Pretty sure this place closed down like 6 months ago (or more) or am I mistaken? I never ate there, but it was a nice spot to have a glass of wine or coffee without the "beautiful people" aesthetic of soho.

[il Trifulau]

Shut down and re-opened once they put their code-compliant indirect drains in place, I'm told.

[malibu]

good to know. thank you!

[michele cindy]

I 2nd Peep, inexpensive given what else is in the area.
Fanellis, for burgers, I also had a good vegetarian chili there.
You could go to Balthazar for an omlette or sandwich about $15.00.
Let us know where you end up.
I've given Spring St. Natural too many tries to ever go back there.

[malibu]

Me too. My comp used to order from them and it was 50% ok and the other 50% we had many bad experiences- undercooked food, rancid food etc. etc. This was just take out, but would not recommend SN to anyone unfort.

Snack on Thompson for Greek.

Broome St. Bar

i second la esquina

[susan robin]

Cubana Cafe on Thompson Street is good, not great.

Peep (Thai)
Aroma (Italian)
Papatzul (Mexican)

Do you mean Aroma Coffee bar? I don't think it's Italian, it's Israeli owned and the menu is eclectic with Mediterranean, Mid Eastern overtones.

[LeahBaila]

Nope...It's just called "Aroma." I know of the coffee bar you're speaking of. Two separate places.

[michele cindy]

Thanks for clarifying! Where's the "other" Aroma? I'd would like to check it out.

[LeahBaila]

You're welcome. :)

For bar food, Try Fanelli - http://www.menupages.com/restaurantde...

under $20 entrees is going to be a bit hard to do in any decent place, besides an ethnic restaurant
