UWS, here I come!

Hello all,
I am moving to the UWS (80's and CPW) next week from midtown east, BIG change. Can anyone recommend some great restaurants in the area? I know about Barney Greengrass, Popover Cafe, Good enough to eat, etc for brunch...looking for good places for dinner.

TIA

Not to be forgotten if you're a wine person, landmarc in the time warner building. One of if not the most reasonable priced wine list in the city.
