PureWow: "This cozy wine bar has one of the best deals in town: $22 on bottles, a $6 glass of the day and a huge selection of $5 bites. Best of all, it’s Mon-Thurs from 5-8pm and weekends from 4-8pm."
Kim Pham: "A very friendly coffee shop. The deconstructed latte is actually lovely - shot of espresso, milk, and a finished latte (with a wafer + water to cleanse the palate)."
Ranu Rajkarnikar: "This place is pure magic. Lovely friendly staff, incredible tempura omakase and delicious sake. We loved talking to Dime, Nicholas and Chef Yokota. Such a nice add to the neighborhood and so tasty."
Fabian Martin: "WOW! The Khao Soi is to die for!!!! Definitely try it. This rivals anything I’ve had in Thailand and that says something. The duck noodles are also very good!"
Tracey Churray: "Do you like sitting around with friends drinking rare craft beer, but can only comfortably fit 2 in your tiny apt? Just come here! Comfy couches, super chill. Plug for your charger by the couches too!"
Maria: "So cozy! Much needed addition to the East Village. This is the perfect place to cozy up with a book or post up to do some work. Mud coffee and awesome tea selection helps. Will be back!"
Gothamist: "While there are many good pignolis all over the city, the best I've found are at Veniero's, the venerable Italian pastry shop—since 1894!—in the East Village."
AmateurConcierge: "This neighborhood institution is great for gifts for locals and out of towners alike or for an evening coffee.The pastry selection is endless, and a great scoop of gelato or ice cream for only $2.50!"
