Yes, hear you completely on Sushi Samba, I was there probably almost 10 years ago when it was newer and trendier and it was ok, think part of the reason I liked it was bc I drank 2-3 caiprinhas before we sat down (this is the old one that was down in the village, was a big place) then had a beer before we started eating so pretty much anything would have been half decent at that point. Well, at least the Caiprinhas were good, and there were a lot of hot women there on dates or on girls night out back in the day.
G*D I miss NYC sometimes...would never want to go back and work given the crappy work/life balance but it's such and incredible city to go out and wine & dine, and the amount of new and incredible restaurants is just amazing. To the poster who mentioned Cookshop I wholeheartedly agree - have been there 2-3 times and it's been excellent every time.
Also, Wallse is an amazing restaurant (at least it was 3 years ago) - incredible Austrian food and a beautifully decorated restaurant that's quite classily run - sort of a Viennese Coffehouse/restaurant in the Village.
