On a side note, their entrees look small... $38 for a 6oz steak?

+1. Thats expensive for a tiny portion.

It's not even about the price. An appetizer and a 6oz "steak" will leave me wanting for more :P

Then again, Jezebel is an experience-restaurant not a steakhouse...

I never did the observatory. I did the ride and it's way overrated IMHO.

It seems like the main steakhouses that you havent been to are: Mike's Bistro, Wolf and Lamb, Ladino Bar and Grill (tappas food), Solo.

I recommend using savored.com to set a Mike's bistro or Solo reservation at 30% off.  Been to Mike's many times and they are  consistently good and with the 30% off it brings down the price considerably.

I'd do the observatory and skip the ride.

+1, way overrated. And be prepared to spend a huge amount of waiting time to get into the ride (they'll shift you from one place to another 3-4 times to make you think you're not waiting.)For kids it might be good, but waste of time for adults.

It is a very reputable one, a large majority of the teaneck restaurants and butchers are under it. And ETC is a very good steakhouse.

I really wanted to do the Cirque du Soleil Groupon the other day, but it was basically only during the 3 weeks.
