89th And Broke I'm a young professional living in Astoria (formerly of Williamsburg, the UES and Murray Hill - I move a lot!). I'm always looking for something fun to do or the best place to grab a drink and dinner at an affordable price around the city.
Have a suggestion? Email me at Laura AT 89thandbroke DOT com.

My old roommate Crystal and I hadn’t see each other since March, so last night we decided to catch up at Pulino’s. If you decide to head to Pulino’s, reservations are recommended. We tried to make a reservation the day of for 8pm, and were left with the options of 7 or 9 for [...]

So as I was cruising the site that I work for, I noticed someone posted this deal, and I had to verify that it was true. Luckily, it is!
Two Boots is giving out free slices today and each location is giving them out at different times. I talked a young gentleman at the [...]

In honor of the US’s victory yesterday, we thought we’d share a few more World Cup specials around the city (again, these are not exactly hard to come by, so we’re just picking out a few that we like).
One of our favorites is at Exchange Bar & Grill in Gramercy. If you’re watching [...]

Granted, there aren’t many Bertucci’s in the area (the closest seems to be in Jersey City), but if you do find yourself in the vicinity of one, definitely remember to bring this coupon to get off $5 of a $25 purchase of food.
I have a Bertucci’s near my home on Long Island and [...]

I moved yesterday and on Wednesday my mom helped me pack up (which is pretty much the worst chore ever) so I felt I at least owed her dinner. However, seeing as moving takes a financial toll, pizza was all that my limited budget could afford, so I wanted to be sure it was [...]

I gotta say, I love this deal! If you go to dinner at Nick and Toni’s Cafe near Lincoln Center, you get a free movie voucher for the AMC Loews near by! Granted, you have to purchase a prix-fixe dinner for $28 that includes an appetizer and entree, but looking at the bigger picture, for only [...]

My roommate and I went out to dinner at Posto Thin Crust Pizza a week or so ago to celebrate my birthday. Although we’ve walked by it a bunch of times neither of us had ever tried it, so this was the perfect excuse. It had a nice outdoor seating area, but it [...]

Fridays when I grew up meant pizza. So a few Fridays back, we decided to head to Veloce for some pies.
It was around 9 p.m. when we showed up and tables were scarce, but the host said he could squeeze us in. He made a big deal of putting our table of 4 [...]

Every year I look forward to San Gennaro in Little Italy. Why? Well, it’s not just because I love Italian food in general (and I do), but because I look forward to reconnecting with an old flame or two – some of the best pizza and manicotti I’m sure to have all year.

There is no better deal in the city than 99 Cent Fresh Pizza (43rd btw Lex and 3rd) — especially when you’re drunk. The pizza is good, the slices are big, and the service is fast. They’re open 24 [...]
