Are there any inexpensive restaurants in New York City with good quality?

Question

I want to treat my Aunt out since Aunts and Uncles day is coming up and I'm still in my teens so I don't have all the money in the world. Are there any restaurants in  New York with a good atmosphere, inexpensive and good food?

I know it sounds like an impossible restaurant to have, but I'll take any suggestions or alternatives. Thank you for any recommendations.

If you're still in your teens then you probably want to try to feed them on about $60-100 total.  Luckily, it's Restaurant Week in NY until Aug 15 (they should really just call it Restaurant Month) where you can have a three course dinner for $38 each or lunch for $25.  Quite a few good options for you here: http://www.nycgo.com/restaurantweek/

Just looking quickly at the list, narrowed to seafood, thai and bbq cuisines, I would recommend:

Esca
Estiatorio Milos (absolutely one of the best seafood restaurants in NY)
Lure Fishbar
Blue Smoke 
Kittichai (sceney but pretty decent thai-fusion food)

Yes, there are plenty but depends how cheap, because cheap is wide range but if you want to spend around 20 or 30 dollars there is a steak house on 34 st called TIM'S steak house the meal there is around 30 bucks and very good food nice service nice place to sit down and enjoy the food little bit crowded but its NY, I would def recommended, also Eats Restaurant and Bar

You have to state what your budget is per meal.
You could always take them out for a nice slice of pizza.
