What do you love on 9th Avenue in NYC?

I need help. We're going to MSG Thursday night, want to eat cheap and well while en route, and don't have time to do the research. So Serious Eaters, I ask you: What restaurant/joint do you love on 9th Avenue?

I used to live near 9th but a bit further uptown. Our favorite neighborhood spot was Ariana Afghan at 9th and 52/53rd. Also stop in at Poseidon Bakery at 45th street for amazing strudel.

Go to Osteria Gelsi on 9th Ave. and 38th. Good food, nice people, fair prices and a 24 in the new Zagat. You won't be sorry!!

Bali Nusa Indah has Indonesian food, a relatively rare find in NYC.

Uncle Nick's 9th between 50th and 51st Good greek food. make sure you get the warmed pita with your tzatziki.

Thank you all! This suggestions were exactly what I was looking for. I think we'll try Osteria Gelsi on another night. For tonight, it'll probably be Bali Nusa Indah before heading off to see Bruce.

Again, thanks!

This is probably too late at 4:15 p.m., but just in case...

Right at Penn, Mustang Harry's serves the purpose. Nick & Stef's is much better and equally convenient, BUT, it's not what I'd call cheap. Keen's and Uncle Jack's are better, but even less cheap.

Reliable, affordable:
Osteria Gelsi -- southern italian -- 9th nr 38th
brgr -- burgers -- 7th nr 27th

If you can go a bit out of your way, try Tia Pol for tapas (10th nr 23rd) or Grand Sichuan (9th nr 24th).

Also good, but probably too far is Suenos -- mexican -- W.17th btwn 8th/9th
