  1. Well after searching around for restaurants i thought this would be a
    great place to help me out. So I hope you don't mind me coming in here
    and channeling it through the group to see if I can get some help.

    I am a senior in High School and president of our Spanish club. I have
    been trying to plan a trip to Manhattan which we are 20 minutes away
    from. The point of the trip is to have dinner at a Spanish restaurant
    which i think would be pretty cool. Now i know there are plenty of
    really great places all over the place but here's the problem: I ran it
    through the club advisor and she doesn't really want to go far from
    Grand Central. Only because there are a number of kids very unfamiliar
    with the city and we'd like to keep the restaurant in walking distance
    so we can play it safe. Anywhere that's 10'ish or less blocks away
    would be really nice.

    So who knows any neat places we can go to that will seat somewhere
    around 10-15 people and doesn't have high, high prices? I nice
    Spanish feel to the place would be pretty cool too.

    Thanks so much for any help!!!

    A little further away than you wanted but the Spain Restaurant (actual
    name) on 13th (btwn 6th & 7th Ave) will fit all of your other
    requirements nicely. They have a larger dining room in the back with
    large tables. Food is really good and affordable and they put
    complimentary appetizers in front of you as soon as you sit.

    If walking is a requirement it is less than 1 1/2 miles from Grand
    Central to the restaurant which would be a 30 minute walk and you could
    enjoy the city during the walk.

    Darragh, you might be better served at rec.food.restaurants. Good luck!
    Or see if you can get your hands on a Zagat guide. (Or hope that
    Margaret sees this and looks for one on your behalf. "-) ¡Que tenga
    buena suerte!

    I saw this, but I cannot be of help. I am not familiar with a single
    Spanish restaurant in Manhattan. I am sorry. :o(

    Yeah, but doesn't Zagat have any Spanish restaurants identified?

    http://www.chowhound.com (message boards) is another excellent site.

    But in this case, considering the constraints, I don't know if there
    would be a better suggestion than George's.

    I would never recommend something or someone I do not know. The Zagat
    Guide is accessible on the Internet, as far as I know, but you must
    subscribe now. I really cannot help you.

  9. Well all of you have been very, very helpful and any remaining tips
    would be great. I posted my situation on chowhound and hopfully I'll
    get something from over there. Has anyone heard of TINTOL over on 46th
    street? That may be an option.

    Thanks again for everything so far!
