Han Bat
Han Bat has the feel of a Korean diner, though with some surprisingly nice decor. Their forte is Hyaemul Dolsot Bibimbap (rice cooked in a stone pot with mixed seafood, herbs, Korean hot sauce, etc.). Some of their other dishes are very salty.
Expect to pay around $20 for a hearty meal including 6 banchan (side dishes provided to diners for no additional charge)

Cho Dang Gol
A slightly upscale Korean restaurant that specializes in dishes made with artisanal tofu, several varieties of which are made on premises.
Lunch is cheaper (~$20) and more informal. Expect to pay about $30 for dinner

Keens Steakhouse
A New York chophouse with excellent steaks and great bar for pre & post dinner drinks or just drinks. Fine dining in comfortable surroundings. Founded in 1885, the restaurant has an interesting ceiling covered in 90,000 clay pipes which the customers used to smoke after dinner. Pipes were left at establishments, as they were too brittle to transport!

Ai Fiori
This Ligurian restaurant has delicious cocktails (the fiori d'arancia, made with Old Forester bourbon, is absolutely delightful) and equally fine food, made with the freshest, highest-quality ingredients and with some kind of pleasant surprise in every dish. And unlike most other New York restaurants, it has plenty of space between tables. It is expensive but worth the money. The room is large, so while reservations are recommended, this is one upscale restaurant where it's usually possible to reserve at short notice.
Breakfast daily 7-10:30AM (limited menu in bar/lounge only Sat Sun); lunch daily 11:45AM-2:30PM (limited menu in bar/lounge only Sat Sun); dinner Sun-Thu 5:30-9:30PM, Fri Sat 5-10:30PM; bar menu Sun-Thu 5:30-11:30PM, Fri Sat 5PM-midnightAround $125/person for dinner, including drinks, tax, and tip
