What are some must-try local food spots in NYC that tourists often miss?

[AngelMcLean]

New York City is renowned for its diverse culinary scene, but many visitors stick to the well-known tourist spots. I'm looking for recommendations on local food joints that are off the beaten path and offer a true taste of NYC. Any hidden gems or favorite spots that visitors often overlook? Share your suggestions!

Way too broad a question. There are over 10,000 restaurants in the city. The vast majority don‘t see tourists. What type of food are you looking for and what are willing to spend? Do you need to be able to make reservations or are you willing to stand in line? Is this Manhattan specific or do you want to explore the other boroughs?
