Want great food, not outrageously expensive, good atmosphere...suggestions por favor... Thu Oct 08 13:34:39 -0700 2009 112555 brensaint 1 5089288 Are you looking for a private room? Are the ages mixed? or mostly under/over 35? Lawry's has great holiday atmosphere. Traditional, not very flashy or trendy.

Thanks for the suggestion but we did Lawrys in Vegas a few years ago (when the economy was better...feels like so long ago now) Fri Oct 09 12:55:25 -0700 2009 5089112 112555 brensaint 1 5092348 What is considered "not outrageously expensive"? :) Under $100 or under $50? I've held / been to holiday parties for abt 20 ppl at Lucques, Fraiche (we sat outside, pretty nice - might be good for ur group), Napa Valley Grille (cheapest out of previous), La Terza (now Minestraio Trattoria - $50pp).
