Gabriel Hayes: Awesome slice of pizza. A great late night snack
Emily Wilson: My favorite slice joint in NYC. Mozzarella is solid, pepperoni is solid, but the your best bet is the plain slice (add parm and red chili flakes, duh).
Fred Wilson: Best "to go" slice in NYC

Franklin Bonafe: Not only do they have the best burgers, they have sports in tv, great jukebox, and you can actually have a decent conversation with some interesting people:)
Esquire: Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Sure, it's a gay bar, but this dingy old survivor is more masculine than 90 percent of the straight bars in America.
Buford Barnes: Established as bar 1864 in building from 1826. Allegedly oldest Greenwich Village bar and oldest gay bar (since 1950s). Site of gay activist 'sip ins' in the 1960s.

Raysha: Spider rolls, crispy shrimp, and s'mores pizza are a must!
Eric Hinman: The food is so good, you should ball tap the chef on the way out.
amNewYork: EMM Group’s multi-level seafood restaurant is helmed by “Top Chef” winner Hung Hunyh. The menu will be New American, inspired by Asia and the Mediterranean.
Serious Eats: We love the plain slice, the fresh mozz Nonna, and the square Grandma slice. An icon of New York's classic pizza culture.
Gilt City: The thin-crusted Nonna Maria pie, made with mouthwatering mozzerella, was first created ages ago in Tuscany, then passed down through the generations and across the Atlantic. It's divine.
Martin Jones: Amazing pizza - you'll be glad you stopped here.
