Ithaca restaurants

Any recommendations for good restaurants (dinner) in Ithaca or Watkins Glen? Would love to find somewhere with great food, stylish decor, hip, etc. Thank You

My husband went to Cornell and he always talks about a restaurant called Thai Cuisine. The address is:
501 S. Meadow St. (Rt. 13)
Ithaca, NY 14850
(607) 273-2031

The Heights Cafe is still there and still great.

The Boatyard grill is good, though not necessarily worth the 1-2 hour wait (no reservations).

Good Thai: A Taste of Thai
Good BBQ (and other things): Bistro Q
Good Ice cream: Purity

Haven't been, but highly recommended (upper scale):
Pangea, Willow, John Thomas Steakhouse, Madeline's.

Mmmm...love Thai Cuisine. Every once in a while I see their salamander t-shirts and get nostalgic. Great curries, solid service, and Dim Sum brinches on the weekends. I'll second the Heights, too, but it's been four years since I've been. Also worthwhile: Moosewood (the original veggie restaurant of cookbook fame), and if you can get a loaf of chocolate cherry bread from any of the Ithaca Bakery locations you'll be in heaven. And if you need lunch, there's a Mega-Weg (Wegman's) on Route 13, across from Thai cuisine. God I miss that grocery store!
