Here's one of the best deals I've found. There's an Italian restaurant in the West Village called Sapore Due. If you go there between 4-6pm during the week they have a prix fixe dinner which includes an appetizer, entree, coffee or tea, dessert, and soft drink...for $10.95! It's big portions too, and the food is fantastic. Here's the link so you can see where it is and what else is on the menu.

Another good place to go is Confetti Pasta, at 5 E. 38th St. (between Madison Ave and 5th Ave) It is only open during the week though. But it's great...you pick a pasta, pick a sauce, and whatever else you want mixed in there (veggies, meats, etc...as many as you want) and they cook it right in front of you. Reasonable prices and very, very good.
