    New York West is very convenient if you are staying at Embassy Suites. It has a great bar and televisions, but also kid-friendly. It's mostly a burger and pizza kind of place with a few salads. I got the Caeser salad with salmon and they were served separately...that was different.... Great bar-food restaurant when you are close and have the kids with you!
