Mom visiting! Help! (NYC)

My dear old (well, not that old) mum is coming to town to visit me from Chicago this weekend. Being a poor college student, I would like to show her some places that are fun and unpretentious, but perhaps slightly more expensive than what I would normally buy for myself. We're both fairly adventurous eaters, but I'm not looking for something with a fussy menu that lists each and every far-flung ingredient the kitchen has. I'm also not looking to break the bank, just something a little snazzy (aiming for $100-150 total, including drinks and tip); in the general downtown area (east side or west), or north Brooklyn. Some places I've never been to and am considering: Momofuku Ssam (though I frequent the Noodle Bar), Spotted Pig, Marlow & Sons. Any help would be much appreciated!
