Restaurant of the week

This week's is more of a 'budget pick':
879 Taco, 1229 1st Avenue, between 66th and 67th St.

I've been to this place twice; once eating in, and once (tonight) taking my dinner 'to go'. Both times I had a burrito (tonight was steak), and both times it was excellent. At less than $10 for dinner, this place is definitely a keeper. There isn't any 'service with a smile', but at that price, who cares. Honestly, sometimes you want to sit down for a meal without the waiter/waitress introducing themselves, asking how you're doing, and checking in with you every 5 minutes to see if you're OK... this is the perfect place for those times.
