El Pirata on 40th b/n 10 & 5th (right hand side if walking towards 10th) that serves some of the best ceviche I've ever had. People were eating fried fish dishes that looked incredible. Just a hole in the wall...but filled with locals. Very inexpensive.
also on 10th at 32nd is El Tacamaron. Homemade tortillas filled shrimp in an incredible sauce. Plus a chicken and rice dish I dream of still. Really good and very inexpensive!
