Chinatown Brasserie
380 Lafayette St., nr. Great Jones St.; 212-533-7000.
The dim sum is great—as are more straightforward options like curried chicken dumplings—and the space strikes the right balance between chic and casual.
Freemans
End of Freeman Alley, nr. Rivington St.; 212-420-0012.
The taxidermied décor, the comfort-food heavy menu, and the Über-cool Lower East Side location will surely please your budding hipster.
The Odeon
145 W. Broadway, at Thomas St.; 212-233-0507.
A French brasserie where discerning teens might get in some celeb sightings with their burgers and fries.
OTTO Enoteca Pizzeria
1 Fifth Ave., at 8th St.; 212-995-9559.
Teenagers plus pizza plus casual (without being cheap) should lead to a pleasant dining experience, sans eye-rolling.
Rosa Mexicano
1063 First Ave., at 58th St.; 212-753-7407.
Upscale authentic Mexican food that offers diversions like virgin margaritas and guacamole prepared tableside.
