About this tour
Follow the aromas of fresh pastries, pizza, and Italian specialties through Greenwich Village on this NYC Greenwich Village Italian Food Walking Tour. Led by licensed local guide Greg Marro, whose family roots in the neighborhood date to 1884, the walk pairs generous local stories with a taste of the area’s Italian heritage.
Sample a changing lineup of bites that may include Brazilian brigadeiro, Rafetto’s ravioli, Italian rice pudding, lemon pound cake, Grandma pizza, arancini, a meatball slider, and fruit-a-misu. Along the way, hear neighborhood history and family tales, with music and serenades adding a personal touch. The route covers no more than 1 mile, and the small public group is limited to eight guests. Tastings are bites rather than a full meal, and samples and sights may change.
Choose the meeting point that matches your day: Tuesday through Saturday at St. Anthony of Padua Church on Sullivan Street, or Sunday at Faicco’s on Bleecker Street. Come hungry for a flavorful stroll and a more intimate look at Greenwich Village. Book the NYC Greenwich Village Italian Food Walking Tour to explore the neighborhood one story and sample at a time.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.89 from 633 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.2. Top 13% in New York City means it ranks in the top 13% of tours in New York City by this score.
