Sevillia:Spanish restaurant,real Spanish not Tex-Mex crap.Located at Charles St and West 4th st.
John's Pizzeria-Real brick oven pizza,same family ownership since the 1920s.I grew up on this stuff.Located on Bleeker St south of 7th ave south.I think they're closed on Mondays.
The Village is very interesting to walk.You can spend a day plus nd still not see everything.
Enjoy your visit and I know it's not easy,but don't bring the car into Manhattan.The PT
(public transportation) will get you where you want to go.Check ahead of time for discounted travel deals.
Ther cabs,due to traffic,are not a fast/enjoyabe means of travel.They'll make you wish you brought your helmet/harness/neck collar etc. along.The subway,other than rush hours,is the best and fastest.
I agree with Ed, see the village. Also we enjoyed the Circle Line Ferry, real nice informative trip.
We got to eat at Second Ave Deli, will always cherish that. Veniero's for cheesecake or cannoli's, but what would I know, I'm from Illinois!!!
