Eating Out: Arte Café

106 73rd Street
B/W Amsterdam and Columbus
1/2/3 to 72nd St.
212.501.7014

Quiet and unassuming from the exterior, the Arte Café takes up the ground floor of a series of adjacent UWS townhouses. Obscenely reasonable (especially given the neighborhood; the three-course lunch is $9.95), the prix fixe menus are expansive and enjoyable, if not excellent. The linguine alle vongole was perfectly satisfying, however -- and the salads are killer. Given the beautiful decor and cheery waitstaff, it's certainly worth the trip.
