Walk over to Broadway and Canal and take the BMT Broadway line uptown train marked "Astoria." Change at the Lexington Ave-59th St station to any uptown IRT Lexington Avenue Line train. Get off at 86th and walk over two blocks (direction east) across 2d Ave for the restaurant.
Translations to less quaint language:
take the BMT Broadway line uptown train marked "Astoria."
take the N or R uptown, or Q if it says "Astoria"
any uptown IRT Lexington Avenue Line train
take the uptown 4 5 or 6
