"This branch of the mighty Artopolis, one of Astoria’s best Greek bakeries before it closed, persists in a sunny Broome Street location with tables in front that are a great place to grab an espresso and a hand pie like spanakopita or galaktoboureko. Step inside the antique-filled interior and inspect the collection of cookies, pastries, casseroles, and salads, then assemble a choice selection for one of Soho’s most pleasing and relaxed lunches." - Robert Sietsema, Melissa McCart
"The people who used to run Artopolis (now closed) in Astoria operate this highly-useful Greek spot. (There’s another location in FiDi.) Order some spanakopita and grape leaves, or get the moussaka lunch special that comes with a side salad. If you want to eat in, there are a few copper-top tables and mismatched chairs next to floor-to-ceiling windows facing Broome Street. You can usually get in and out of here very quickly—unlike the situation at Dominique Ansel nearby, which always draws long lines of tourists." - Kenny Yang, Bryan Kim, Carina Finn Koeppicus, Willa Moore, Sonal Shah

"Easily one of FiDi’s most pleasing and relaxed lunches, this is a great place to grab an espresso and a hand pie like spanakopita or galaktoboureko for a morning meeting; or have a proper sit-down lunch that’s still quick enough to make it back to your desk in time."
"It’s a goal of ours to plan a running route that spirals exactly like Pi Bakerie’s spiral-shaped spanakopita pastries. Sure, this might be difficult when you consider New York City’s grid system, but it’s nice to dream about while we run. Pi Bakerie is a Greek counter-service spot from the same owners of another Greek bakery in Astoria we really like (Artopolis Bakery). You could have a sit-down meal here during the day, or just stop by and get a pastry. Try the spanakopita, some grape leaves, and a great, massive square of meaty moussaka." - hannah albertine
