OK. So we are going to Brief Encounter @ Studio 54....there is an italian restaurant very near there--on 8th Ave in the 50's it is small, red checkered table cloths (I think), a neighhood place really. I think they have Christmas lights or twinkle lights in the window and a small potted plant near the front door....WE LOVE this place and want to make a reservation...but can't come up with the name!!!!!!!!!

[HPowerUSA]

Ha Ha made me laugh out loud...just in a state trying to think of the name of the place!!!!

[Hey19]

Sorry, I couldnt resist.

Im sure you have tried yelp.com? if you know approximately where it is, and think the name will jump out at you, I would think you could track it down on there. Also, if its as good as you say it is, it is also probably the one with strong reviews in the area.

right! Yelp...forgot about that...hard to believe but I AM trying to work too.
