Time Out says

Crowds from the nearby Village East Cinemas have decamped to Pangea for post-movie bites since the ’80s, but the restaurant’s age is finally starting to show. Try to sit near the windows or outside—it’s noisy inside thanks to low ceilings. The menu, which touches on Middle Eastern, Italian and Asian cuisine, is wildly inconsistent. Tuscan shrimp rolled in fresh herbs over white beans are refreshing and hearty, but the Moroccan chicken with preserved lemon is cloyingly sweet. Hedge your bets with never-fail options like fried calamari or burgers to best enjoy this little standby.

What’s on

Jack Bartholet: CabaRage

Cabaret darling Jack Bartholet turns his fury into sound in an all-new cabaret set built around the relationship between anger and art, backed by a trio led by musical director Trevor Pierce. The eclectic, queer-inflected set list ranges from standards by Noël Coward, Jacques Brel and Kander and Ebb to newer bops by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Mika, Bo Burnham and Orville Peck.

Salty Brine: Good News, or Harry the Dog

Salty Brine is an outrageously talented singer-actor in the vein of Taylor Mac. In his Living Record Collection cabaret series, he takes a different classic pop album in each show—from Joni Mitchell’s Blue to the Dirty Dancing soundtrack—and weaves its songs into funny, perceptive tapestries of queer storytelling. The show is highly addictive: Once you’ve been dunked into Brine, you’ll want to dive back every month. In this edition, he connects a love story set in a dystopian future to the songs from Modest Mouse's Good News for People Who Love Bad News.

Carol Lipnik: Underground Souvenirs

Like a spiderweb, Carol Lipnik is surprisingly strong in her ethereality, maintaining an eerie self-possession as she shares enigmatically spooky folk-art songs in an octave-spanning wail. In her latest Pangea show, presented by Tweed TheaterWorks, she teams up with pianist Gordon Beeferman to share a new set of originals and covers.
