From Serious Eats: New York

Top UWS Neighborhood Bites

you've gotta check out Noche Mexicana at 101st and Amsterdam, some of the best mexican I've had in NYC, and beats the hell out of Taqueria y Fonda at 108th and Amsterdam.

Pisticci on Lasalle & Broadway is also not to be missed, along with Max Soha right around the corner.

I haven't lived up there for a while, but I used to enjoy Taqueria y Fonda la Mexicana at Amsterdam and 107th (where they have decent enchiladas and sometimes make a spot-on mole). And what about Pampa, the Argentine steak house? Cheap and delicious. There's also a couple of Mexican grocers on Amsterdam that have tamales on the weekends. But I miss Absolute Bagels the most. I live near Murray's, but it's not the same thing.

I'd add Gray's Papaya for hot dog and papaya drink, Sal & Carmine's for an excellent slice, and Turquoz for very competent Turkish. Glad you included Dinosaur; they seem to get undeserved bum rap among many foodies.

Ed - you missed one of THE best places to eat and hang on the entire Upper West Side. And the answer is...All State Cafe. For some reason it never seems to make Zagat's either - which is also great so you never have tourists popping in after reading up about it...

Interesting what you say about Absolute Bagels. It just so happens that my favorite bialy place in Queens, Hot Bialys on the edge of Kew Gardens, is also run by a Thai family.

Coincidence...?

What about Gray's Papaya?

Also, Boat Basin Cafe in Riverside Park has a great view, for when the weather's nice. Probably not worth going to for the food alone. It'll probably be closed for the season soon, if it isn't already, though.
