“This Thi restaurant in Brooklyn was so delicious if you like Thi give this a go. Wednesday 40% off wine. It'scalled Lingo. The food was so exciting and balanced flavors! Their bold original menu reflects a deep love of flavors as well as an educated chef who pulls off their amazing flavors. Can't recommend enough!”
“On my visit to NY, I went to Brooklyn and discovered Bar Mario, a bar that has all the magic you're looking for, with excellent service down to the last detail. It offers a variety of drinks and delicious prepared dishes. The menu is incredible, I highly recommend it.
I will definitely be back
Thank you so much!!”
“Lore is an absolute gem in Brooklyn! The food is creative, flavorful, and beautifully presented, with every dish tasting fresh and unique. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Perfect for a special night out or a casual dinner—highly recommend!”

“Celebrated my birthday here best experience ever hospitality was amazing”
“I absolutely love this restaurant! The quality of the fruits and vegetables is outstanding—always fresh, vibrant, and clearly sourced with care. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared, but the standout for me is the pork braised dish. It’s rich, tender, and packed with deep, savory flavor that melts in your mouth. You can really taste the time and skill that goes into it. This place never disappoints.
Noise level is average for a NYC area restaurant and service spot on (we were a table of 15 for a birthday, not easy to serve even with a pre fix menu!!)”

“Ever since I found this lovely place a few years ago, it has been me and my family’s absolute favorite! Ricardo’s special cocktail Rixway is my go-to and Elena’s cooking is just phenomenal. Their food, drinks, and service all together make this restaurant so special. Whenever we go, we can feel their love and dedication in everything they prepare. Love this place, Elena and Ricardo so much!”
“You get proper portions without premium pricing. Butcher Grill House boasts elegant surroundings. I've tested several menu items and found decent quality. Workers are pleasant and solution-oriented. I appreciate their consistency and recommend them.”
“Stop reading this review, make your reservation and just go. It's 200% worth the visit. The food is excellent and the portions are generous. Great sake selection and delicious teas.”
“A wonderful place, very clean, wonderful staff, very polite people!
The food was excellent, I ate there more than once, I fell in love with the backyard.”
“The Nook has been my go-to coffee shop for years, and it never disappoints. The space is cozy and comfortable, perfect for working during the day or just hanging out with friends. It can get pretty crowded on weekdays, so I recommend getting there early if you want to grab a good spot. What really makes The Nook stand out are the extras beyond just great coffee and food (which are both consistently solid). They host craft nights, comedy shows, chess games, and more in the evenings and on weekends, which makes it feel like more than just a café—it’s a little community hub.
If you’re looking for a place that feels warm, welcoming, and always buzzing with energy, The Nook is it.”
“Awesome atmosphere..great drinks. delious food. Bella our waitress was sweet polite and very attentive. I recommend this spot for a good time.”
“I really love frutango, I have been coming here for a few months now and the guy with the beard is AMAZING super fast and friendly! I get a smoothie every time he is working because he always provides a great and pleasant experience!”
“EVERYTHING SPREAD THE WORD THIS PLACE IS ALL 10s Food fresh Great atmosphere Friendly staff Cozy Food OFF THE HOOK yummy Nice cocktails and selection of top shelf GET HERE AND TREAT YOURSELF”
“Went for brunch. Good food but not great, pricey, with slightly over salted ham in the Croque Madame for my liking. We had a reservation for 4 but that changed to 6. They really couldn't accommodate that change, but it was last minute so I don't hold that against them. Very busy place with lots of energy.”
“Oxomoco nails the balance: high-quality, adventurous Mexican food in a relaxed but stylish setting, topped off with great service and a bathroom that might just become the highlight of your day. Whether you’re there for a special day or just a fun trip with friends, this place delivers — and then surprises you, in the best way.”
“interior was. ute, service was great and the food was amazing. they actually live up to the hype and it has now easily become a fave restaurant of mine! the mackerel toast was top tier and that’s coming from someone that doesn’t eat mackerel like that.
we also enjoyed the black miso cod a lot. it was very soft and had a nice smokey flavor when you’re taking a bite. highly recommend ordering it.
the hiramasa was also a favorite. the flavor profile was 10/10 but i wish they gave more slices of fish cause 4 pieces feels like JAIL. minimum should be 6 imo
we got the chicken and their striped bass special as well and while those are good i think they’re not MUST orders though still very delicious. my top 3 would be mackerel toast, hiramasa and the black cod”

“Staff was friendly and very involved on the time we spent. Our instructor was very helpful and made it easy for us to understand how we kept score. We opened a tab and it was a pleasant atmosphere. Music wasn't to loud that you couldn't talk. Every lane was safe as they had cages and made sure people threw in their own caged lane. Overall I'd rate this place 9 out of 10”

“My colleague and I were in Brooklyn for a work trip and decided to try Al di Là Trattoria, and what a gem it turned out to be! We opted to dine at their wine bar, conveniently located right around the corner on Carroll Street, and it was the perfect selection.
The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was impeccable. Our bartender was the definition of professional, attentive. As for the food, the meal was absolutely delicious.
This is a must-visit spot in Carroll Gardens. We highly recommend it and will definitely be back next time we are in the area. A 5-star place for sure!”

“We came here on a Sunday early afternoon and had one of our best recent dining experience. We live close by so we went in hoping it would be a gem and it absolutely didnt dissappoint. The garlic naan might just be the best we’ve ever had. The mussels were very fresh and not sure if it’s the season but the flesh was super fat. The sauce it was cooked in was also very very good. Dipping the naan in that sauce was straight heaven. We also ordered the rotisserie chicken, which we thought was a bit pricey at first but man, it was cooked to absolute perfection. Crispy skin, JUICY all throughout, with grilled lemons and a decent sauce. The service was also phenomenal. Our server had great energy, and provided us the perfect balance of attentiveness and space.
The vibe of this place is also top notch. The modest exterior is only hiding the spaceous, modern, and elegant interior.
Overall, we could not be more thrilled about this find and will definitely be coming back to try their drinks and sea bass dish! Highly recommended for an absolute treat.”

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!”

“5 stars are not enough to tell you how good this place is. We've been staying in the Franklin Guesthouse (hotel adjacent to Madre) for a couple of nights and decided to give Madre a shot - boy were we in for a treat! Firstly, shout out to Armando, who made us feel immediately welcomed with his warmth and energy! For food, we got the Frutti di Mare, Croquetas, Brussels Sprouts, Cornbread Madeleines (compliments from chef) and Chicken - massive MASSIVE props to Chef Bryan and his very talented team. To say that they cooked "well" would be the understatement of 2022. They absolutely blew our minds with top quality medley of ingredients, depth of flavor, and masterful execution in every way. Cocktails were fun and delectable, which added the perfect "pop" to the culinary rocket ship that Madre served up. Just when my wife and I were ready to call it a night, Chef Bryan and Armando were kind enough to bring out the Pot de Creme for us, which was the bow and ribbon on this very special dinner. My only regret of the night was not having enough stomachs to enjoy more of what Madre could serve up. We will definitely be back! Thank you, Madre!”

“EVERYTHING……they are very professional and an expert in their field of work. I’ve been going to LGVB for years and they have NEVER disappointed me or my family. Anything you want they got it and make sure your vision is reflected thru whatever product you purchase. Betsy and Roy are the best along with their entire staff.”
“I had such a great experience at 7th Ave Park Slope Diner! The food was absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can really tell they take pride in what they serve. The employees were so well-mannered, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. It’s rare to find that kind of genuine hospitality these days, and it made the meal even better.
I’ll definitely be coming back soon — this place has officially become one of my favorite spots in Park Slope!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
525 Deli is a gem in Brooklyn! Open 24 hours, it’s always clean and well-maintained, which is so refreshing for a late-night spot. The staff is super friendly, making you feel welcome no matter what time you come in. The food is amazing — from fresh deli sandwiches to hot bites, everything is on point. Plus, they offer beer, liquor, and a wide range of snacks, making it a one-stop shop for whatever you need. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!”
“We had our wedding cake made by Nikki, black sesame yuzu and it was absolutely incredible. We loved it! She showed up right on time, worked seamlessly with our vendor, and delivered a cake that was both delicious and beautifully decorated. Truly couldn’t have asked for better service. Nikki is super busy, so just send her an email she’ll get back to you in a couple of days. Totally worth the wait!”
“Stopped in late with my wife on our way to LaGuardia for a red eye flight. My wife had the chopped tuna on a roll and I had the chopped cheese on a roll. The sandwiches were fantastic and we both regretted that we had not ordered more to take back home to Texas. Friendly and helpful staff. We will be back here every time we visit NYC.”
“Came here for my anniversary dinner and was blown away by Breeze (pun intended). Easily some of, if not the best Sichuan food we’ve ever had. I got the Winter Frost #2 cocktail and I wasn’t sure what type of flavor I was expecting but it didn’t taste like what I expected in a good way! The cocktail had a mildly sweet, light but depth in flavor profile.
The ginger sauce green beans were some of the best green beans I’ve ever tasted. The sauce they used was addicting. Second favorite item was the diced chicken with chili pepper, which was super spicy but absolutely delicious. But to be honest all of the dishes were home runs! I was just here last night and I’m already daydreaming about coming back to try more dishes.
Also the service was exceptional. The restaurant was full and there were only two guys to cover the front of the house (the hostess, waiter, bartender, and bus boy). They definitely had their hand fulls but still were efficient. Since it was our anniversary dinner they ended up surprising us with a pumpkin rice cake dessert on the house which we thought was the sweetest gesture. I couldn’t have been happier since I absolutely love rice cakes 😋”

“Dog Day is a truly special place and the reason I moved to the neighborhood. I otherwise consider myself a vegetarian of 8 years. These hot dogs are divine any time of the year, but here’s my advice:
On a crisp fall day, don’t eat until 2pm. Have two Chicago dogs and a milkshake, then walk through the park. A cure-all.
Last October I had a great conversation with a zombie witch who shared my table. It told me to always, always answer when I hear the hot dogs calling. Sometimes I hear the dog’s call ringing through Greenwood Cemetery treetops at night and I have to wait up all night in a cold sweat praying for noon to arrive.”
“Melissa and James create soul food with modern twist -- with big flavors! I visited P&C multiple times already, with family, friends and work colleagues and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to eat modern American with a lot of love. 🍷🍸🍹Their cocktails are equally amazing and delicious, they also have a fantastic wine selection and their freshly baked Pita is a MUST! Please do go and visit P&C to also support the local restaurant community -- they deserve it! 🥰🍾🥙”
“I'd had this place on my list for a long time and finally got the chance to visit! I was not disappointed. We were seated on the outdoor terrace (which was pretty loud and cold, because of the AC). Volume aside, the food was amazing! Standouts: the tiramisu and corn pasta. A great neighbourhood spot, though a little pricey!”
“By far my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. I’ve eaten there a few times now and each time is better than the last. Don’t sleep on their orange wines and definitely don’t sleep on the spicier dishes. For my money better than uncle boons / fish cheeks. So so so good! Also fantastic service always!”
“To Dylen James and the Traif Team,
Warm greetings from the couple visiting from Florida! We just wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dylen for the amazing recommendations—we made it a point to visit every place you suggested, and each one was absolutely spot on.
Our experience at Traif was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we walked in, the service was impeccable, and the food… wow. Truly top-tier. Hats off to the chef and the entire team—you all delivered a 6-star experience (yes, we’re going beyond 5!).
We’ll definitely be back soon, and next time, we just might call ahead to see if Dylen is working 😊
With appreciation,
Your Florida Fans”

“This is by far the best sushi restaurant we have been to, and I would dare say it’s better than some Michelin star places. Not only is each course extremely unique and full of flavor, from sea urchin, to Wagyu, the service is extremely attentive. The chef that was serving us has been preparing sushi for 30 years and it shows. We were so delighted by our experience - it was truly a huge highlight for us. Skip the hype restaurants and try Ishi instead. We will be back.”
“simply the best. The food and drinks are perfect every time. Whether you’re ready for a full meal or just some drinks and snacks Bar Madonna always hits the spot. Plus the staff are not only super attentive but also drinks experts that can make you just about any cocktail you’re craving. Definitely a crowd (or date!) pleaser, highly recommend”
“Neighborhood gem. Great decor, homey, comfortable but well appointed. I have dined here alone and with family, both times it was a good atmosphere. GM Michael is really good and runs a good staff. The food is delicious- good for all types of diet restrictions. Fresh ingredients well prepared. Last but not least also great cocktails. Host and server were friendly and attentive. I will for sure be coming back here!”
“This was a return visit for me and again was not disappointed! This is a welcoming, creative space with a menu selection that guarantees great quality and flavor. Paul, owner and on site staff member, ensures allergy concerns are addressed without a fuss. Just make a note in your reservation and let the staff member take it from there!!!”
“This restaurant has a beautiful ambience and great service. The Purple Blossom Dumplings were works of art, to the point where we hesitated to destroy them by eating them. And they were tasty, too. I had the sautéed chicken ginger for my main course, and it was flavorful without being too sweet, and had a nice mix of vegetables, chicken, and rice. I loved this restaurant.”
“I was very unfortunately openly weeping intermittently throughout brunch (bad morning) but our server handled it perfectly and didn’t make it weirder than it already was. Shout out to that king! Also the food was very good and they played the entirety of being killed by geese which was pleasant. Would come again thank you for the extra napkins (high quality, great for dabbing at tears) xox and also my Bloody Mary was excellent”
Fine Dining
“I had been wanting to try HOUSE for a while now, being a regular shopper at Dashi Okume. However, had been wary of fine dining experiences in Greenpoint after trying 2 so-so places that privileged novelty over flavor. Well let me tell you, HOUSE did not disappoint.
Picture this. You arrive in a quiet street in Greenpoint, with the typical warehouse-y yet clean, modern and minimalist vibe. You see the interior through giant bay windows of a dimly lit store with Japanese products and ceramics. You see people waiting inside and other patrons dining at the café. By then the store is closed, so you ring the intercom to get in. You wait to be called to the HOUSE, in the back of the store. It feels like you are at your friend's house, and your friend is a sophisticated person with a beautiful house and he cooks for you. The atmosphere is quiet but elevated. There are 10 seats. And you are hosted by 4-5 people. It feels luxurious. You may start the dinner as perfect strangers, but you certainly make friends along the experience.
And the food is incredible. Your friend is an amazing cook. From start to finish, the story is coherent, with subtle development and transitions that never miss a beat or take you somewhere uncomfortable. Flavors are predominantly Japanese forward with some international ingredients and techniques. Noting for example the Monaka filled with ricotta and corn or the french tuile on top of a burrata with berries, reminiscent of Scandinavian flavors.
The highlight of the menu for me was the noodles. With a fragrant Dashi and rich egg noodles covered in egg yolk and fish roe, the final dish on the meal is an unmistakably Japanese grand finale, with an explosion of flavors.
Fantastic experience. Thank you team.”
“Clover Hill exceeded my expectations. The food was delicious and creative. I feel there is always one dish in a tasting menu that is a disappointment or lack luster but that was complete untrue here — each dish was a star.
The service was excellent and the staff was so kind and accommodating. The pace of the meal was also spot on.
The wine pairings were exceptional!! We have strong opinions in this area and were surprised and delighted by Debbie’s choices. Highly recommend adding the pairing
Thank you to the clover hill team for taking such great care of us!”
“Favorite restaurant, delicious food, sublime wine, amazing chefs Robbie & Sam , friendly and welcoming owners, Clement & Simone go above and beyond to make your experience of their gem of a restaurant simply the best! Love this treasure in our neighborhood, make your reservation and try as much as you can on the menu, every mouthful is just wonderful!!”
“Came here on 10/17/25, service was amazing, dishes were to die for and drinks were amazing. Everything is so good and I definitely recommend coming here. If you come here please try the meringue angel foodcake, trout and cotton candy drink. FYI: THE WHOLE COURSE TAKES 2 TO 3 HOURS SO BE READY TO WAIT. In general though this restaurant is amazing! 🔥👌🔥”
“An incredible dining experience in Brooklyn. The tasting menu feels like a theatrical performance — beautifully choreographed from start to finish. The French-Japanese fusion dishes are refined, balanced, and full of surprises. Service is attentive, the atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, and the location is very convenient by subway (but parking is nearly impossible). The duck pie is a stunning presentation, though the other dishes impressed me more in flavor. Perfect for a special occasion — they even offer a small cake if noted for a celebration. Would definitely return to try a new menu.”
“My boyfriend secretly booked Ume for my birthday/our anniversary celebration, without even knowing I’d been dying to go.
The garden seating is beautiful despite being a bit too shiny. The whole ambiance is so zen and relaxing which makes it perfect for a special occasion.
Huge shoutout to the impeccable service: we were 30 minutes late stuck at traffic, but they still graciously held our table. They even surprised us with vanilla gelato with honey and kinako on the house, easily one of the most delicious scoops I’ve ever had.
*Sushi Set $78 pp
It was such a fun and interactive experience making our own hand rolls from a sashimi platter. We loved being able to enjoy everything at our own pace, customizing each piece with a variety of dipping sauces and special salts. It really encouraged me to slow down, savor every bite, and fully appreciate each piece.
*Literally Everything Don $60
We were greedy to try more so we got one more kaishindon. Expensive but you get what you pay for: uni, ikura, scallop, toro, a5 miyazaki wagyu, caviar, and more. Every bite was pure luxury and satisfying. I only hoped I could only get this don as I was too full after finishing the sushi set, but they require at least one sushi set per person.
*King Salmon Nigiri
To be completely transparent, my bf found a small bone in his sashimi. He was given a completely new set, and they even treated us to king salmon nigiri. We really appreciated how proactive and thoughtful they were so it didn’t affect our overall experience at all.”

“My beautiful Grand daughter studied for the GMAT there. We enjoyed a delicious sandwich. The bathroom was nice I washed my hands. My beautiful grand daughter took a shot of whiskey then rode a bus LOL anyhoo great time in Brooklyn for all it was also Halloween and this fun loving grandma dressed as a cat. Then I chased my husband Roger around for some fun LOL I recommend coming here during the day esp sundays very nice reminds me of Ireland and I have ancestors there”
“Best shawarmas and super friendly owner! I am so so happy to have such good shawarmas so close to my place. I love shawarmas so you can trust me, also other stuffs are really good too. My vegetarian friend loves the fried cauliflower sandwich and falafel sandwich too! Great fries too! I rarely write reviews but this deserves one. Will definitely try more items in the future.”
“Solid breakfast burritos and great tortillas, which are like gold here. I haven’t tried anything else on the menu yet, but it’s just a matter of time - the salads look awesome. I moved here from Texas a year ago and love everything about the city (except for the rent), but I do miss Tex Mex and good tortillas. New Mexican is its own cuisine and sure hits the spot while also being healthier, and those tortillas are a game changer. So glad to have found this place, just had breakfast from here, and am already looking forward to going back.”
“Food is yummy! My go to place in Brooklyn! Coda is excellent and the flatbread are also yummy! The Sangiovese red wine on tap is also nice! Highly recommend and make reservations in the weekend”
“Amazing mediterranean food and cool ambiance. Staff was super friendly! The mezze at lunch is out of this world, would highly recommend. Probably the best Falafel I had in NYC!”
“love this place every time -- perfectly executed dishes, inventive menu with classics, fun selection of drinks. staff is always prompt, friendly, knowledgeable.”
“When I walked in the restaurant the delicious aromas let me know I made a good choice. The food was absolutely amazing with vegan/vegetarian options and even a complimentary gluten free appetizer. The staff was welcoming and the service great. The prices were reasonable, but the best part was the delicious food!!”
“Absolutely delicious food and drinks! I highly recommend the volcano wings for appetizer and colossal crab meat fried rice and the giant river prawn curry for entrees. Portions are great for sharing too!”
“I'd had this place on my list for a long time and finally got the chance to visit! I was not disappointed. We were seated on the outdoor terrace (which was pretty loud and cold, because of the AC).

“Loved the ambiance while we had dinner. Modern eclectic aesthetic with live music too. Delicious cocktails and fantastic small plates and dim sum. Highly recommend the cucumbers, fries, and dumplings with chili oil.”
“Good place, to eat dinner, everything you want and good French wine.”

“The French toast with vanilla cream was AMAZING, probably the best dessert I’ve had all year. Goat gouda quiche was also splendid. Lots of natural lighting from the windows around as well.”
“Burger was good but not amazing. Short rib su louvre was good but fries were t the best side for the dish. The lobster orzo was surprisingly underseasoned. Our server was super friendly.”

“Sat at the bar with 2 other friends last week, service was attentive, food was delicious. We didn't love the honey creme dessert thing, the consistency was kinda weird but would def reco the pumpkin sour cocktail.”
“I LOVE this pretty jewel box of a Thai restaurant. It's the go to for me and my gf whenever we visit the Brooklyn Museum, or are in the mood for delicious, affordable Thai food in a lovely setting . The place is gorgeous : the walls are in deep teal with gold leaf overlay. There are chandeliers and gold candelabras with fresh flowers at the up lit bar. Fabulous for a date night but also family friendly when the sun is up. The staff are solicitous but not pushy. But the food is what truly stands out. Beautifully plated and always tasty, you cannot go wrong with whatever you choose. My friend and I are both wild about the tangy roast pork with sticky rice. Sooooooo good!! And they make great cocktails. You should definitely go!!”
“The BEST Thai I’ve had in New York. I had an issue with a pickup order recently, & I reached out to them on instagram. Their customer service went above & beyond to make it right. Food is so good, & love that you can customize the pad thai to exclude egg.”
“This was a return visit for me and again was not disappointed! This is a welcoming, creative space with a menu selection that guarantees great quality and flavor. Paul, owner and on site staff member, ensures allergy concerns are addressed without a fuss. Just make a note in your reservation and let the staff member take it from there!!!”
“Fantabulous Ambience. Lively and lovely staff. Great food. Loved everything.”
“Great little Mediterranean spot in Brooklyn. You might want to make a reservation if you want a table because it was extremely busy even during the week. I ended up sitting at the bar but I didn't mind because I got great service. They even have Turkish coffee. So awesome. Everything I ate was amazing and they have vegan options. The wines by the glass are excellent. Highly recommended!!”
“The absolute best burger I have ever eaten, hands down! Excellent service and ambiance. Highly recommend!”
“My colleague and I were in Brooklyn for a work trip and decided to try Al di Là Trattoria, and what a gem it turned out to be! We opted to dine at their wine bar, conveniently located right around the corner on Carroll Street, and it was the perfect selection.
The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was impeccable. Our bartender was the definition of professional, attentive. As for the food, the meal was absolutely delicious.
This is a must-visit spot in Carroll Gardens. We highly recommend it and will definitely be back next time we are in the area. A 5-star place for sure!”
“Delicious food I had in long time with exclusive tast of fruits herbs and meat”
“Wonderful place for dinner and delicious drinks. The bartender was lovely and talked through the cocktail menu with such an impressive knowledge of the components and the food was so fresh and delicious. Highly recommend!”
“I have visited the Allentown location several times. The food is always great, but what’s even better is the feeling of warmth the staff and owners emit. Everyone has always been so incredibly kind and attentive. Excellent food and service!”
“We came here for drinks on Halloween and were so well taken care of by the staff. Truly amazing service and cocktails. Excellent service and well-curated vibe. We will be back.”
“One of authentic Thai food with a good taste, nice service “Sherlyn” was very nice and attentive. Very recommended. Pla tord nam pla - deep fried fish with flavorful salty sauce.”
“Everything was great. They brought us a delicious goat cheese ball dish to start. They also asked us if we'd like to move to a booth instead of the table in the middle which we loved. Cant wait to come back”
“By far my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. I’ve eaten there a few times now and each time is better than the last. Don’t sleep on their orange wines and definitely don’t sleep on the spicier dishes. For my money better than uncle boons / fish cheeks. So so so good! Also fantastic service always!”
“simply the best. The food and drinks are perfect every time. Whether you’re ready for a full meal or just some drinks and snacks Bar Madonna always hits the spot. Plus the staff are not only super attentive but also drinks experts that can make you just about any cocktail you’re craving. Definitely a crowd (or date!) pleaser, highly recommend”
“Such a cozy and elegant place with wonderful staff! The Adjaruli khachapuri was beyond my expectations – truly delicious. Definitely a spot I’d love to come back to 🤍”
“I was very unfortunately openly weeping intermittently throughout brunch (bad morning) but our server handled it perfectly and didn’t make it weirder than it already was. Shout out to that king! Also the food was very good and they played the entirety of being killed by geese which was pleasant. Would come again thank you for the extra napkins (high quality, great for dabbing at tears) xox and also my Bloody Mary was excellent”
“Sosy is our server and he was sooooo amazing and super duper friendly. We got a tomahawk for 2, fries, and mixed greens and more! It was great experience and it was phenomenal. Everything that we ordered was 10/10. I'm very happy that my husband found this place. We both enjoyed it so much”
“The food is consistently delicious and is always fresh but the portions are small”
“Hands-down, the best tiki in NYC. If you are an authentic follower, then this is your only Stop. Gracious service. Great drinks. Amazing atmosphere. Worth the wait.”
“Everything about this place was amazing!! The food was phenomenal, some of the best we’ve ever eaten! Our server Andi took care of us like we were in his home—he was so kind and really made the experience amazing. The platter with the different dips is a MUST, but also is the Caesar Salad, Lamb, and Pita. Wine and cocktails were so tasty and really paired well with everything we ordered. Honestly, order everything because you really can’t go wrong! Stunning spot and will tell everyone that visits the area that they must come to this spot!! Thank you again!!”
“Nice place to go. I was very pleased, good staff. Everything tastes well. Highly recommended if you’re nearby. Clean tables and awesome lights, my order have been done fast tho.”
“Great burger, slightly overpriced for what it was, but that's not surprising given the neighborhood location. A solid meal all around, wouldn't travel far out of way to visit. If you're in the area, definitely give it a shot.”
“Super unique and delicious maple praline brown butter pancakes! More cake than pancake. The wait was not long to get a table and the service was prompt, professional, courteous, and didn’t leave us in want of anything. All of our needs were met. Food was prepared much quicker than expected and was all very good! I would definitely recommend this!”
“Fun indoor/outdoor dining environment and delicious food make for a nice night out!”
“The food was great - Just the right portions. Elaborate cocktails menu and well crafted. The service was friendly and nice. The entire place was lit with candles and provided a cozy atmosphere for a perfect date.”
“Dinner at Bar Bete started strong with standout dishes like the tuna toast, mussels escabeche, and oysters. Unfortunately, the ricotta and wagyu steak fell flat in flavor. Service was solid, but the atmosphere was loud.”
“If I could eat here for every meal I would-the cocktails, tacos, brunch-everything is pretty good! I walked 30 mins for their Gordita😋extra points for being completely celiac safe it is very pricey though and the quality has lowered a bit since I lived there”
“cameriera italiana con capelli corti. scortese e molto maleducata. non tornerò piu. non ha saputo ne servire il cliente oltre al fatto che dovrebbe farsi un corso di corretto italiano prima di parlare con un cliente in quel modo. pessima pubblicità al locale. peccato e mi dispiace ma non tornerò più.”
“I was recommended this restaurant and took a chance on it as I was looking to diversify where I eat in Brooklyn. I ordered the chicken dumplings and fried rice with duck. Both were excellent and even for the lunch special, the portion of fried rice was too much for just one person. While the service wasn't particularly great, the food and prices were excellent.”
“I have visited the village located many times and wanted to visit this location while I was in BK. Atmosphere is very nice. Soups were amazing but the salad wasn’t rich in terms of cheese and walnuts as the other location. Prices are very affordable especially for that huge portions. Our server was ok”
“Po kilkudniowym pobycie w NYC i zwiedzaniu Brooklynu, zatęskniliśmy za polską kuchnią. Obiad w Pierożku to był strzał w 10. Zamówiliśmy pierogi ruskie i z kapustą i z grzybami. Pyszne jak u mamy albo babci. Ciasto cieniutkie. Smaczny farsz. Po prostu świeże I domowe. Mały ogródeczek. Polskojęzyczna, sympatyczna obsługa. W łazience przewijak dla dzieci. Zdecydowanie polecam i serdecznie pozdrawiam przemiłą ekipę " Pierożka".”
“Food was delicious and location is great, but my waiter service received was mediocre. The waiter was distracted when we were ordering and he got rude when we asked a few questions due to a dietary restriction. The other staff was pleasant.”
“Panzon is such a gem in greenpoint. Incredible cocktails and food, the vibes are everything you’d want. Love having drinks outside on the patio. 10/10 recommend”
“This restaurant has a beautiful ambience and great service. The Purple Blossom Dumplings were works of art, to the point where we hesitated to destroy them by eating them. And they were tasty, too. I had the sautéed chicken ginger for my main course, and it was flavorful without being too sweet, and had a nice mix of vegetables, chicken, and rice. I loved this restaurant.”

“From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcomed and taken care of. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. Now onto the food — hands down some of the freshest, most flavorful seafood I’ve ever had. You can tell they use high quality ingredients and take pride in what they sell.”
“The food at Djondjon is spot on.... This restaurant is a jewel. The food is amazing, and the hospitality is off the chart. There is free jazz often enough. The quality far surpasses the price. I love their pasta, their fish and their goats which come in various varieties. Their appetizers are yummy. I will continue to patronize this place. I had my Cabrit boukannen ( grilled goat) and it really pleased my taste buds.”
“I had the pleasure of dining at Vera's, and it truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the warm, inviting atmosphere made me feel right at home. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring every detail of our experience was perfect. The highlight was the food. The barbecue chicken and sweet ribs were savory on the outside and juicy on the inside—mouthwatering. The collard greens and cabbage were seasoned to perfection. What I appreciated most was the authentic soul food flavor that reminded me of home. Great care and tradition are poured into every dish. Whether you're a longtime fan of soul food or trying it for the first time, Vera's is a must-visit. I’ll be returning soon! I highly recommend it for anyone craving hearty, flavorful soul food in a cozy setting.”
“I was there with my colleagues Monday, November 10. We were at the nearby Signal Awards where our podcast received a Bronze prize for our podcast about Italian food, “I Wish I Were a Prosciutto.” We were hungry and looking for something with prosciutto. We had your most delicious pizza with prosciutto and arugula. The crust was Neapolitan perfection and the toppings were bursting with flavor. We were also impressed with the good-as-Nona’s meatballs. The service was outstanding and we appreciated meeting Gloria de la Rosa. You made our special night more special. We live in Connecticut, but we would come back again when we are in Brooklyn, tell our NYC friends about your place, and talk about it on our podcast. We wish you continued success! Thank you so much.”

“Absolutely great food and its presentation amazing. The views, ambience and live piano music wonderful! The service was impeccable. I am a true New Yorker and difficult to please - I am not a tourist - and this is definitely a 5 star must experience restaurant. Thank you The River Cafe for making our dinner truly special and memorable!”
“Had to visit the original location of my favorite chilli dogs! Love those classic fries as well.
Great snap to the dogs and the famous chilli recipe did not disappoint. Fries were on point as well.
Very quiet because I went during the off-season, but it was a Birthday treat and did not disappoint! 😁”
“I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that the cornbread was so good coming from a place called “Cornbread Brooklyn “
But there I was being assailed by the flavors and softness of their cornbread. I spent a few years living down South, and I can’t get southern food this good down there.
Their fried chicken was flavorful and crispy.
The Mac and cheese was maybe a little drier than ya mom’s mac on Thanksgiving, but if she brought this out you’d still have seconds.
And that Southern Twang was the Twangiest.
Will definitely drop by again”

“The best 5 course meal my wife and I have ever had thus far. Our hands down favorite, and rightfully so as sushi fanatics, was the hamachi. Talk about fresh on fresh on fresh on fresh. Fresh fish, fresh fruit, fresh sauce, fresh cream, fresh presentation—insanely delicious and refreshing.
The tiger bread was some of the most exceptional bread we've ever had as well. The garlic was as buttery smooth to spread as the whipped butter itself, and was pleasantly flavorful without being overly potent.
My next course was the butternut squash rigatoni. The garnish on top was light and crisp and added that extra accent to the whole dish to round it off beautifully. My wife got the iberico pork, which was cooked to tender perfection. The broccoli mash concoction that came with it was reminiscent of broccoli rabe but basically in it's ultimate form anime-style. Crazy inventive.
The next course for me was the beer battered monkfish with risotto and was actually the best beer battered anything I've ever tasted. Superior crisp encasing that mouth melting fish. The risotto had crispy chunks in it as well and helped offset the heaviness of the fried fish like a wife offsets her husband's hard shell exterior and gives way to his heart of flesh. Speaking of, my wife got the lamb with risotto and it was yet again a perfectly tender cut of meat. It was smokey and carried a more intense flavor, which also was rounded out by the gentleness of the risotto, complimenting it on that marital level yet again.
Lastly, the desserts came in and ended the whole show the same way it began—with favorite-level energy. It was the solid second favorite course for both of us. Mine was the panna cotta. Yo. It went crazy. It was like a salted caramel apple cheesecake, but after finding a way to dial in each ingredient to the max before artistically laying it all out on a plate without any of the cheesecake crust. I LOVE sweet/savory, and it encapsulated that in a dessert beautifully. My wife had the chocolate cake with ice cream, and like we don't even know how to properly describe how good that one was—but here goes nothing. The cake was dark dark and rich rich from the sauce oozing on top to the moist pastry itself. The ice cream had a citrus undertone to it that balanced out the richness of the cake. Literally, yin and yang on a plate with the freshest chocolate drenched cherries on top. Good Lord, the Lord is good indeed.
The service was top notch, from the warm greetings, to the coat check in, to the menu break down, to the seamless water refilling and course transitions. We are big on omakase type meals as sushi heads, and this was up there while being a fraction of the price. There was a chill and comforting vibe to the whole restaurant as well. Take a trip here and let them take your palette on a trip it will sing praises on the whole way through. Bless.”
“Gator is a standout restaurant. Definitely in the running for best brunch in Greenpoint. I’m absolutely shocked that this place isn’t full to the brim every weekend. Every item on their menu is carefully devised, unique, and created to a very high standard. Their green eggs and ham are OUT OF THIS WORLD. Full of flavor, perfectly cooked. The flatbread?? Incredible. Great service too, everyone is always welcoming and friendly. I hope they’re around for a long time to come!”
“This was an amazing and fun experience. The food and drinks were amazing. It was a real food and cultural journey and I loved the concept of this restaurant. I recommend folks to open your mind and enjoy the ride. It’s worth it and I can’t wait to go back with other friends!”
“Went to celebrate an anniversary and had an excellent experience! The food is fantastic, the space and ambience is really lovely, and the price point while expensive is commensurate with the dish construction and quality of ingredients you get (fish flown in from Japan that same day). We loved that the restaurant operates as a not-for-profit, donating proceeds to fight food waste. I’ll be recommending to friends for an upscale date night or a special celebration.”
“With Others has been my favorite wine bar in NYC for quite some time. I love stopping in with a few friends for a glass or bottle of wine and some snacks, or booking their Sunday wine school for a fun weekend adventure. I hosted a birthday party in the backyard a few weeks ago. Everything was perfectly handled! Lauren and the staff helped me pre-order wine and food and kept everything running smoothly. Would highly recommend for parties!”
“Run, don't walk! Visiting from the Hudson Valley for a day trip, and my wife & I are foodies. With a hungry 10 year old tyrant in tow, we took our son to the park across the street and killed an hour before wearily stumbling into Miatzil.
First off, on a Tuesday to be dead at 6pm is a crime! The Happy Hour here exceeds anything I've ever seen. $18 for 4 tacos & a cocktail (1 of 3 choices.)
The service is friendly & attentive, the food is wonderful & the spice level is up there with some of my favorite Oaxacan venues down in Mexico.
This hidden gem in plain sight deserves all of the love from the Park Slope community.
Much love,
Anton”
“Yesterday on Oct 19, 2025 at 20:58. I grabbed my dinner at Deux Chats, ordering oysters: Beau Soleil (New Brunswick, Can) Island Greek (Duxbury, Ma), and Kumamoto (Oakland Bay, Wa).
Shrimp Cocktail, Smoked Trout Salad,
I completed the dishes mentioned above in the restaurant and tasted a little bite then takeout the rest of dishes: Acorn Squash Salad, Loster Roll, and Beef Tartare.
Alejandro C and attendances assisted me during the meal. I also shared a prior experience and he confirmed with the owner that my billing would be handled appropriately this time. I promised him I’ll return back.
I and Alejandro both kept my recipe records, credit card (with my name), and the email.”
“Absolutely loved this neighborhood gem in Brooklyn. We sat at the bar and the bartender was so nice. We had their amazing cheese burgers with fries, everything was excellent including the atmosphere. The perfect place to hang out in Brooklyn for a casual meal or drinks.”
“Stumbled into this spot in Williamsburg and honestly, it’s the best pizza I’ve had since moving to New York. Properly crisp base, great toppings, and you can’t beat the price for the quality you’re getting. The staff were genuinely friendly as well — not just polite, but actually welcoming. Definitely my new go-to pizza place!”
“I hosted an engagement party here and all I can say is that it was an AMAZING experience. The space is so fun and funky and the drinks were stellar. Most importantly, the staff here is one of a kind. They were so sweet and helpful throughout the night and made the whole event truly effortless. Can’t recommend Lise and Vito enough! (Also their jello shots are a must try!)”

“Staff was friendly and very involved on the time we spent. Our instructor was very helpful and made it easy for us to understand how we kept score. We opened a tab and it was a pleasant atmosphere. Music wasn't to loud that you couldn't talk. Every lane was safe as they had cages and made sure people threw in their own caged lane. Overall I'd rate this place 9 out of 10”
