FiDi is fairly expensive, and there are just too many better options if you're looking for proximity to bars and restaurants. If you cross the bridge and live in Brooklyn you'll have more options for bars and restaurants, while being roughly the same commute to amenities in Greenwich Village or the East Village. The East Village itself is probably cheaper than FiDi. The only real selling point of FiDi, IMO, is proximity to your office if you work in FiDi, or as Crawford pointed out, if you have children and are paying for an expensive private school in that area.
