Need to find a spot on the East side of Manhattan for a group of 10 to have dinner Saturday night? Can be flexible on location. Recommendations?

Price range? Type of food? Upper East, Lower East?

flexible on food and location. Moderate price. It is for a friend who is coming to town. This is all i got.

Veselka - 2nd Ave and 8th St. They can seat any number of people. It's a Ukrainian diner, so it's not fancy, but the food is excellent, the service is good, and it's a quintessentially "New York" place, which is always nice for friends from out of town.

Cafe Mogador or Klong on St. Mark's

If your group is not pork averse I recommend reserving the Bo Ssam at Momofuku Ssam Bar. It's a whole butt of pork that is slow roasted to make it super tender and moist. You get oysters and other accompaniments. Soooo good. It's a bit pricey - I think $180 but it feeds 12 easily so a very good deal for a large group. They also have fish and other goodies for those who might want more than pork.

Try Il Buco on Bond St. near Lafayette. I had a birthday party there, it was great- the food, and the whole vibe of the place. If you want a quieter dinner, ask to sit in the wine cellar, it feels like you're having a dinner in Italy.

If you want something more uptown, Amber is in the 80s, they have good sushi and teriyaki, and they're awesome with big groups (they have a back room, and while your groups probably wont be the only tables seated there, you can at least be somewhat separated and as loud as you want.)
