Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurant · Greenwich Village · 37 tips and reviews
Priya Gandhi: Try the 'Love' smoothie...medjool dates, banana, spirulina powder and almond milk....amazingly delicious and one of my faves on the menu!
Raffaella Ciavatta: I don't get why vegan food has to be SO expensive... Guys it's beans, chickpeas and soy!! Not that expensive. If we want others to join make it affordable!
Tyisha Shaia: One of the best vegan spots in all of NYC. <3

Italian Restaurant · West Village · 154 tips and reviews
Jen M: Octopus and Chicken Mousse apps to start. Pasta's are all amazing. agreat:black spaghett
The New Yorker: The Italian restaurant’s twist on potato chips and P.B. & J. may seem out of place, but “skip the scoffing and order.” Next, try one of their fresh pastas, and be sure to save room for secondi! Read more.
Ashley Simon: do you like early 90s hip hop and expensive italian? me too. great date spot but they only take reservs for parties of 4 so be prepared to wait. octopus antipasti is excellent as is the pork.
4. El Toro Blanco
257 6th Ave (at Downing St), New York, NY
Mexican Restaurant · West Village · 125 tips and reviews
Justin Orgel: Great food (Mango Marg, street corn, chix tacos, skirt steak, ques). Service can be a little "Sloman Shieldy" at times
The Most Interesting Man in the World: Never speak of El Toro Blanco. Unless of course you’re talking about my 17lb Chinchilla of the same name. Everyone loves hearing about his hijinks.
Time Out New York: Eat this: Guacamole, queso fundido, corn tamale, short-rib empanadas, chipotle shrimp tacos, churros Read more.

Mexican Restaurant · Greenwich Village · 191 tips and reviews
Travis Ramsey: Fresh made guacamole and great crane a dada tacos!
The Wall Street Journal: Try the chocolate ancho chicken torta, which oozes with enough peppers and chocolate to require a pile of napkins and a draft of the Agave wheat beer. Read more.
Steve Flack: Don't get confused: they aren't tortas, just vaguely Spanish food on hamburger buns.

American Restaurant · Greenwich Village · 99 tips and reviews
Sidny Ginsberg: Brunch - the bacon bowl has SO MUCH BACON, it's awesome. Also the French toast was delicious.
Stephen Oddo: Great selection of craft beers, awesome food menu, huge 2 floor bar space... finally a proper ADULT alternative to Penny Farthing's antics across the road!
Rebecca T: Solid- good beer selection and music

W 4th St (btwn MacDougal St & University Pl), New York, NY
Park · Greenwich Village · 708 tips and reviews
Nina M: Lovely for after-work quick dates. Sit in the park during warm months and enjoy the waterfall. Brick oven pizza/restaurant right down the block and Rare restaurant too.
The New Yorker: Home to a free summer music festival since 1953, where music “usually heard in the sanctity (some might say imprisonment) of small concert halls” mixes with the elements, as described in 1987. Read more.
HBO: Girls happened here. Marnie, Shoshanna, and Ray discussed Jessa's flakiness and Shosh ran into a "vintage" rollerblading classmate.

Burrito Restaurant · Greenwich Village · 58 tips and reviews
Jeffrey R: Great salad! Acceptable prices. Great seating layout. Free refills.
Swen Graham: Chipotle Hack: Get fajita vegetables instead of beans in your burrito and you can actually have a productive afternoon sans food coma.
Eric Friedman: Chances are you have been to a Chipotle before, but never one this efficient. For a fun game try playing "Gone in 60 Tacos" trying to get in and out of here in under 60 seconds. My record is 45...
