Good restaurants on the upper east side

I live on 81 and York and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good restaurants in that area that are not that expensive. I like all types of food. So any ideas.

  1. Beyoglu, Uva, Zocalo, Maureen's Passion (for takeout), E.A.T.

    1. Elio's is spectacular. Sushi of Gari is even more spectacular, but $$$, but so worth it.

      1. re: frankbooth

        Oooooo...good call on Sushi of Gari!!!

      2. Chickys on E. 86th and 1st.

        1. It may be a little farther up than you are looking for, but Don Pedro's on 96th and 2nd is very good... Latino-Caribbean.

            Fig & Olive, a small, charming Mediterranean walk-down dedicated to healthy dining.
            Around 60th & Lexington.

          2. Two places that are more of a take out/delivery place than a restaurant on York between 73rd and 74th. Palacio Azteca for Mexican and right next door Tropicalia for Brazilian. Great value at both places.
            Also try Canyon Road on 1st ave @ 77th. Decent to good Southwestern, very slow service but good atmosphere and not expensive.
