NYC Restaurant recomendation

[Gus]

My wife and I will be in NYC on business. She would like a "cozy Italian restaurant around Greenwich Village".

What do you guys recommend?

I second babbo, or lupa, which is also excellent. I've only been back to gusto once since the chef changed and it was pretty weak, so I can't back up that suggestion. dell anima fits your description - small, warm, italian, village. That might be my top pick for "cozy". Also had a good meal at scarpetta recently but that's very different in feel and not the village although not that far away either.

Original Blue Hill, which is cozy, top notch food and much easier to get into than Babbo.

Edit: oops -- missed "Italian" in question. Sorry.

L'artusi is another option. A bit trendier and busy, but the food was top notch.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I may have to extend my stay and purchase larger pants!

Lupa or Pepolino (www.Pepolino.com)

I've been to Lupa, Babbo, Gusto & Blue Hill and they are all great dining experiences.
My favorite though is Il Gatto Pardo http://www.ilgattopardonyc.com This place is a very romantic and is authentic Italian at its best.
If you enjoy Indian cuisine, try Devi. http://devinyc.com He has a Michelin.

If you like paninis check out 'ino. Granted, you won't find anything other than appetizers and paninis, but they do make a damn good panini.
