There are few things in life that can top a smokey and tangy bite of Arthur Bryant's BBQ.
Cook the Book: '660 Curries' by Raghavan Iyer
A friend brought me to a $6.99 Indian lunch buffet while in college. Four servings of potatoes later I was hooked.
Would you bring your dog to a restaurant?
@joyyy, I don't think dogs at restaurants are annoying. I do think he's right in that the dogs probably don't like it even if they behave like they don't mind.

Suggestions for restaurants in/around Morningside Heights
Taqueria y Fonda la Mexicana has, by far, the best Mexican food on the West Side. Consider the milkshakes at Tom's Restaurant and the lamb burger at TOAST. Also, the Ribs and Fried Chicken at Rack & Soul are top notch.

No Burger Bliss at Bohemia Bagel in Prague, But At Least the Fries Are Good
My girlfriend and I happened upon Bohemia Bagel while in Prague for four days a couple of years ago. While their burger wasn't great, we ended up coming back every day to eat their fries and take advantage of their "never-ending soda cup" deal. Nothing better than that when strapped for cash.
