We sought out Pangea while in the East Village attending a show at CSC. As usual in New York, trying to fit in dinner and theater on a work day isn't easy. Both the bartender and server were charming and friendly. Since we didn't have too much time, the server recommended several tapas-like appetizers that fit the bill perfectly!
Pros: reliable, cozy, inviting
Cons: narrow front, easy to miss
