New York Xmas trip w/kids

I%26#39;m leaving this week to NYC and taking 3 nephews(ages 7, 13 and 16) and my grandson(6). Can anyone recommend a few restaurants around time square and rockefeller center which will interest them?

Ellen%26#39;s Stardust Diner with singing waiters and waitresses is always fun! Additionally, I thought the food was a great mix of American cuisine that was very tasty. Ellen%26#39;s is on 51st and Broadway.



I also recommend The Jekyll %26amp; Hyde club on 6th Ave between W. 57th and W. 58th St. Jekyll and Hyde has a monster movie theme and the food was pretty good.



Although I liked the atmosphere of Mars2112, I can%26#39;t say the food was very good, maybe we did not chose well. We got a lunch special that was very reasonable ($8). Mars 2112 is right across from Ellen%26#39;s on Broadway and 51st.



I would consider going to Madame Tussaud%26#39;s Wax Museum. I think your boys would really like it.

Around Times Square:





Mars 2112 - food ok, the kids love it - 51st %26amp; Broadway



Ellens Stardust Diner - singing waiters/ok food/fun - 50th %26amp; Broadway





Johns Pizza - great choice,can%26#39;t go wrong here - W. 44th Street between Broadway %26amp; 8th Avenues.





Virgils BBQ - good food %26amp; atmosphere - W 44 St between 6th %26amp; Broadway.





Carmines - family style, many love the food, I think it is just ok, but the kids will love it. W 44th Street between 7th %26amp; 8th Avenues.





These are not far from Rockefeller Center, would advise eating at these places than near Rock, less choice and more expensive.





Check menupages, price %26amp; locations:

If they are interested in sports, then try ESPN Zone, at 42nd St and Broadway




Two Boots! Located in the Rockefeller Center plaza.

If they like pizza and po%26#39;boys, they will love Two Boots. Cuisine from the ';two boots'; - Italy and Louisiana.




Just dont forget the cold with the smaller kids.




Good point, waterford. Wrap %26#39;em up tight, tia!
