Great food, pleasant ambience.Ā Ā I've been to Frankie and Johnnie's -- it's pretty good but very traditional. But honestly, there's so much great food in Midtown that you'll be able to find something: just prebook on OpenTable well ahead of time for pre-theater dining. Ā Hi, thanks for the reply. If you read back a page or 2 you will see where I realized my timeframe is not good to make a reservation, get there on time to eat at normal pace and get to the show without feeling like I am being rushed out of my wits.Ā I had made a reservation at Gallagher's and decided to cancel it.Ā Ā I am going to have to figure out what to do after I get to my hotel.

Ā I believe he's referring to the Broadway Lounge on the 8th Floor of the Marquis Marriott in Times Square. It's a drink and "snack" option in the middle of the theater district, with a view of Times Square. Ā Which show are you seeing and which theater?
