Down home decor fused with a classic Greenwich Village coffee house sensibility, this place is a magnet for the young and the classy. Huge, filling sandwiches (including the unique Salmon BLT), cold (or hot) chai, special salads and excellent soups establish the restaurant's gustatory chops. The clientel, however, make it a scene for creative, talented people--inlcuding a soon-to-be-famous theater director who used to waitress there! Don't miss the experience--let alone the food!
Pros: delicious food, exciting ambiance, reasonable prices
Cons: packed with customers, one restroom, not open late enough
