Artichoke Basille's Pizza
$
PIZZERIA
Run by two Italian guys from Staten Island, the pizza here is authentic, tangy and piled
high with all sorts of toppings. The signature pie is a rich, cheesy treat with artichokes and
spinach; the plain Sicilian is thinner, with emphasis solely on the crisp crust and savory
sauce. Lines usually form fast.

Republic
$$
Eat-and-go Republic feeds the masses with fresh-n-tasty Asian staples. Slurp away on
warming broth noodles, chomp on juicy pad thai or keep it light with a green papaya and
mango salad. Located right on Union Square, it's a handy spot for a cheap, uncomplic-
ated, walk-in bite.
