Help for a friend. Dinner info near Neil Simon theater please

A good friend got tickets to a show as a holiday present. She will be seeing the show at the Neil Simon Theater (52 between Broadway and 8th) and parking at a lot around 44 or 45 between 5th and 6th. She would like to have a nice dinner with her husband. They like food (except for Mexican.)

What can you recommend in the area?

Thanks so much.

      Depending on the budget...

      Le Bernardin
      Alto
      Modern Dining Room
      Modern Bar Room
      DB Bistro Moderne
      Maze
      Oceana

      Maybe Esca and Marseille, if they are willing to venture towards 9th Avenue.

        Depending upon what they want to spend there are plenty of options. How about db Bistro Moderne (close to where they'll park). The Modern (Dining Room) or Maze (close to the theatre)?

          Not without knowing their budget. Otherwise it's a waste of time and effort.

          Chez Napoleon (50th at 9th Ave) for good, reasonably priced French cuisine.
