UPDATE ON COWGIRL:
Bar-K (the back mini-restaurant) is booked for both April 29th and April 30th. >:(
It is also booked up for the following weekend - both days. If you guys would want to book the back mini-restaurant for a later date, here is the cost involved for a brunch. It would be a payment of $25 person for the food and one free mimosa, plus a variable fee (depending on the number of people) for labor and gratuity - the party planner said that for 15 people or so, that fee would be somewhere in the $200 vicinity. SO, if 15 people attended, it would cost each person $25 plus approximately $40 more dollars = total per person would be hover around $65, PLUS you pay for your own additional drinks over the one free mimosa.
HOWEVER, Cowgirl ALSO takes reservations in the MAIN DINING ROOM for up to 15 people, and then all you have to pay for is cost of your own food and your own drinks.

Wow, that doesn't sound right. $40 on top of the cost of food? If that's the case it's probably too much for me. Is there a plan b?

In terms of NYC prices for reserving a private space, it's a really good price. The pros are that the space itself (I have been there for a party) is great and condusive to a group of 12-15 people (the website says up to 40, but believe me, it is a mini-restaurant, and I would not put 40 people in there unless the majority of them were toddlers!) It is really a side one room mini-restaurant with a side entrance and large windows (and a second entrance to the main restaurant). The staff sets up a buffet style brunch and there is a bar located in the mini-space. There are a bunch of tables and booths around the perimeter for people to sit and eat.
The cons are the cost of a private space - I wanted to alert everyone to cost. Like I said, expect to spend around $65, and more if you want more than one drink.
If we want to go to Cowgirl, Plan B would probably be just to reserve a table in the main room. Then it's just like any restaurant - you pay for your food, your drinks and your portion of the tip. The restaurant itself is not expensive, so you can easily eat and drink there for well under $65 a pop.
JCinNYC2006:
I get it, I overlooked the part about the private space. Although if the fee was $200 and there were 15 people, wouldn't it be more like $13.50? Not trying to be a nuisance, just that 40 for a space fee is a bit more than I expected to pay.
