“Had the best time here , it was my first time and I enjoyed the experience from start to finish. Big shoutout to Joe who was our instructor he was awesome!! I will definitely be back🤩”
“Whewwwwweee did I enjoy myself!
First of all, it's gorgeous, so sunshine-y and green. We sat at the bar and the service was great. We ordered the cantaloupe slushies and they were so, so good! They weren't overly strong + they mix them themselves, just a few ingredients. The guac was a little small but delicious. The pork tacos were pretty expensive for 2, I thought, until I tasted them. WOW, so good. We were so busy catching up, we didn't realize they'd closed to get ready for dinner. They emphasized we hadn't overstayed our welcome, we could stay as long as we needed.
And the disco-themed restroom + playlist? Excellente”
“We have been wanting to try this restaurant for some time now. I took my husband here for Father’s Day and we were not disappointed! The staff, food, and decor were fantastic! They were so friendly to our 6 month old as well, which is always extra special. We will 100% be returning!”
“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!!)”
“Transparently, I only came to meet a friend for one cocktail in the afternoon and she ended up being over an hour late due to an unforeseen circumstance, yet the staff was still so incredibly kind to let me sloooooowwwwly nurse my single iced tea and wait at a a cozy little table near the back until my friend arrived.
It was a quiet day there none the less without too many other diners. Whoever manages this team, does it well. Thanks for making my alone time, not feel so alone.”

“A true Italian gem in the heart of Brooklyn!
We’re an Italian couple visiting New York, and after days of burgers and fries (no regrets, but still!), we were craving a real taste of home. We stumbled upon Cremini’s by chance—and what a lucky find!
It’s a small, cozy place with a warm atmosphere. The owner was friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what he does. We had a lasagna and an amatriciana, both absolutely spot-on in flavor and authenticity. And the tiramisù? Just like nonna used to make. Maybe better, but don’t tell her.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine Italian dining experience far from clichés.
Approved by two real Italians—enough said.”
“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.”
“Awesome atmosphere..great drinks. delious food. Bella our waitress was sweet polite and very attentive. I recommend this spot for a good time.”
“I come here for the atmosphere & the activities. The drink flavors are adventurous yet simple enough that someone who doesn’t like change can still enjoy.
All summer I enjoyed the strawberry matcha latte, but this time around the barista was gladly able to make a matcha & hot chocolate mic for me. We also tried the Rosemary Maple latte, we really enjoyed. Thank you Nook!”
“Great and speedy service today! The girl with the bantu knots was holding the register and sales down today while ricardo made drinks. I never get a chance to get her name, it be so busy.”
“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”
“Grateful for a decent Chinese restaurant that is clean and elegantly decorated. Tofu and chicken dish were very good. The beef stew was more of a beef soup and on the oilier side so wasn’t our favourite. Dumplings were pretty good. Would definitely return and recommend.”

“We had an amazing experience here this evening. The atmosphere was extremely relaxing and chill. The simple artistic decor creates a serene atmosphere. The food is delicious. We especially loved the beef tartar, duck, miso cod, milk bread, and shirt rib. Sticky toffee pudding was rich, but somewhat delicate. Cocktails were well balanced. Everyone was extremely attentive and the attention to detail made the entire experience one to cherish. I highly recommend this place. It's tucked away, but worth the trip. Looking forward to our next visit!”

“My partner found a hidden gem in Williamsburg. We tried the seasonal omakase set. The fish was fresh, each piece was delicious. Also, enjoyed that when each piece came out, the hostess would show us a photo of the fish we’re eating. Chef Leo is really knowledgeable with the food, so don’t be afraid to ask for information. Will definitely come back!”
“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!”
“We had a cute date night at this place, but it fell short of our expectations. We were excited after reading the glowing reviews, but the service was disappointing. Given the limited seating and the small number of guests, we expected more attention and guidance on the menu. However, the menu was not extensive, so we didn’t receive a comprehensive overview of the dishes.
Despite these shortcomings, the food was delicious. Each dish was unique, and the flavors and presentation were perfect. This is a seafood restaurant, so be prepared for a variety of dishes, some of which are served raw.
overall, we would rate a four out of five given the shortcomings in the service.”

“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.”

“We decided to check out this bar while staying in the area over the weekend and didn’t know what to expect but were blown away!
Amazing decor, great ambiance, it was packed and lively on a Saturday night around 10pm in contrast to the quiet streets of downtown brooklyn. We absolutely loved the Raspberry Shrub drink - the white vinegar added a little bit of a sour kick and made the cocktail one of the most memorable we’ve had. Super unique menu and fun food items. Great service and vibes. We’ll be back!”

“Finally tried Bar Bete! Overall a nice experience, as the service was very friendly. We tried a nice mix of small plates and mains, as well as the yellow cake with chocolate frosting for dessert.
The tuna toast and chicken liver pate were fantastic, truly memorable. The leeks and bass were way too salty for my taste. The noise level was also quite high, so very difficult to have a conversation.
Would definitely try again, but maybe just to share more of the small plates.”
“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!”
“This Italian restaurant is one of the few places in NYC where you’ll find rabbit on the menu—and it’s prepared exceptionally well. The pear cake was another highlight, perfectly balanced and memorable. The food remains consistently excellent, served in a warm, authentic setting. Also, returning after several years, we were thrilled to find the same high quality and familiar menu we remembered.”
“Grateful for a decent Chinese restaurant that is clean and elegantly decorated. Tofu and chicken dish were very good. The beef stew was more of a beef soup and on the oilier side so wasn’t our favourite. Dumplings were pretty good. Would definitely return and recommend.”
“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!”
“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!”

“My experience with this establishment was a great experience the service was very good and helpful. The food is excellent fresh ingredients. The workers are Pleasant respectful and friendly I highly recommend.”
“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.”
“We love Campania! We visit every time we are in Brooklyn. The food is always fresh and delicious. We get a pizza and pasta each time we go and we have never been disappointed. Wait staff are prompt and personable. We love the space itself, it can be a little noisy but it's perfect for a date night or a celebration!”
“The person on the phone was incredibly kind and patient, even though I had to keep asking him to repeat himself because of the noise on my end. The taco was pretty good, though I was a little disappointed to discover the sauce only after I finished one of them. On the bright side, the buffalo wings were amazing, especially when paired with the green sauce that came with the tacos which surprises me.”
“Not gonna lie … i just like the cleanliness of the place . And the subtle smell of coffee is comforting . Gah damn 1 in the morning and i’m comfy in here lol”
“For a gourmet deli, the food is like Resturant quality. Fried chicken is better than your usual Popeyes or kfc, cheesesteaks taste like actual meat, I can go on all day, point is flavor is on point. In terms of service, the nicest people I have met. Always happy and smiling and very humble. Try it out you won’t regret it.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Modern Love. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was inviting, and the food was incredible. Thank you!”

“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! 🥰🍾🥙”
“Really enjoyed the shashuka and challah bread. The shakshuka had fantastic flavor and was one of the best I've ever had.
I liked the falafel which comes on a bed of tahini. The falafel were not dry and had good flavor. The tzatziki was a bit salty.
They have full bar and limited beer on draft. Prices were fair for location and quality.
Prices were mezze items ($9 each), shakshuka ($21) and a beer ($9), this is fair pricing. Chill environment overall.
Service was good. They have indoor or outdoor seating. The design inside is very interesting. Bathroom was clean.
I would recommend and will be back.”
“This is a restaurant that redefines traditional Thai cuisine. At first glance, the menu might not seem particularly impressive, but each dish carries hints of innovation. Take the curry rice noodles, for example—while curry with noodles or rice is common, pairing it with rice noodles stands out as unique. The drink menu is also full of Southeast Asian flair, making it highly recommended.”
“Despite a rainy day and a mediocrely designed logo, my low expectations were delightfully challenged by The Nuua Table's Thai brunch menu, a unique concept I had never encountered before, and one that greatly piqued my curiosity. From its unassuming exterior, I did not expect the extraordinary experience that unfolded.
Greeted and seated, we immediately discovered an ambiance beyond expectation. It was clean, woody, filled with greenery and deep orange accents, all bathed in warm light. Despite being packed, it was not loud. Every detail, from the Thai inspired fork and sea city patterned napkins to the pretty striped cups and the rainbow window on the door, showcased immense effort and care.
We started with Spicy Fries, Pan Seared Vegetable Dumplings, and Pink Grapefruit Salad, all beautifully presented and delicious. The grapefruit salad, though sweet, was perfectly balanced by fish sauce. While I was not a huge fan of the good dumplings, my friends loved them. The fries were thick, perfectly crispy outside, and soft and creamy inside. It was clear the chef masterfully understood the ingredients, prompting us to order an additional entree (the Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowl).
All entrees were beautifully executed, suggesting upscale restaurant experience. The Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowl was delicious, savory, and sweet, with a subtle lingering spice, even for a non mushroom lover. The Egg Toast was a great Thai pancake interpretation, savory and pleasantly fishy, with crispy boiled egg for texture; highly recommended. The Chicken Kuay Teow Kua and Shrimp Pad Thai were just okay; I would suggest exploring other, more interesting options here.
We could not leave without dessert. The sole option available was delicious; its meringue, surprisingly light, and a creamy, subtly spiced part made for an interesting flavor. We were all happy, though we wished we had tried other main dishes instead of the Chicken Kuay Teow Kua and Shrimp Pad Thai.
Our unnamed server was exceptional: proactively refilling water, describing dishes well, and even swapping plates after starters. His hawk like attentiveness meant we only needed to ask for the check. The check itself was presented in a cute folder, featuring an illustration of the restaurant door. Despite many tables, their work ethic was incredible. 10 out of 10.
The bathroom was perfection: super clean, smelling of citrus gum, with a thoughtful orchid plant, that aligns with the cuisine. A last check up trip was a delightful cherry on top.
I highly recommend The Nuua Table and will absolutely return, even going out of my way to try their dinner menu and interesting cocktails. Discovering this truly wonderful Brooklyn restaurant was a joy. Perhaps a logo redesign could better reflect the incredible craftsmanship of their interior and meticulously presented food.”
“Food was pretty good only had the pork t taco, shrimp taco and frozen Mojito. The drinks were strong and delicious. The shrimp taco was soo good The pork taco lacked flavor. The ambiance is cool.btje bright walls give it a festive vibe however during the summer there isn't much difference between inside or outside seating. By the time we left our table from inside, our clothes were sticking to our bodies. It's a sauna that with fans that blow hot air with a one working bathroom. Other than that I was satisfied.”

“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.”
“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!!”
“Don’t sleep on this hidden gem. As inviting as a candlelit hush and nestled in an unexpected corner, Brooklyn’s Winona hums with quiet resonance—the perfect setting for whispered conversations, a slow-burning date night, or an intimate dinner with a dear friend.”
“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).

Fine Dining
“The space is clean and modern and staff are welcoming. The chef Anthony was super friendly knowledgeable! Fish are amazingly fresh rice was also really good. I grew up in Japan so I’m pretty familiar with sushi restaurants but even among those, Shota is one of my favorites!”
“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!!”
“My first visit in 2023 was the best meal I had ever had. My expectations were through the roof and they didn’t disappoint. Even with a new Chef, it was a fantastic dinning experience and I loved the new spin on each dish. I highly recommend and will be back on my next trip to NYC.”
“Parking wasn't as bad as I expected for the area, that's one of the main things for me. Dinner was good, that was expected. We ordered an egg roll appetizer, shrimp, thi k cut bacon sloves, a few different cuts of steak, salads, mashed potatoes, and creamed spinach. Bacon was impressive but there was nothing bad on the table. Staff was very friendly and pleasant.”
“A lovely experience, we were a larger group so we were seated in a private room in the back - they have a great selection of sake and offer a sake pairing. The service was amazing and my favorite was the squab. Their menu is differently not for everyone and that goes with the price point. But a lovely meal nevertheless.”
“Went to celebrate my birthday and it was totally worth it!! Super fresh and great quality pieces! Will definitely be coming back soon! I was getting a little uncomfortable at the end due to the sitting but it’s definitely a nice experience and worth it. My only complaint is they don’t give you enough sheets of seaweed for each piece. They charge you a little extra when you order more….. but still ok and worth it at the end of the day. RUN don’t WALK”
“I’ve been to this place twice, and both visits were excellent. I tried the $78, 11-course omakase and the $118, 15-course option. While both were great, I preferred the 15 courses because of the wagyu—it was a standout.
Each piece was expertly prepared by the chef and packed with flavor. Even the ginger was unique, served in cube form, which set it apart from other places. The green tea ice cream was also a highlight, really delicious.
I’ll definitely be returning!”
“Ilis was highly recommended to us by a friend who is a chef, after we asked about suggestions on restaurants in New York that truly push boundaries. It did not disappoint. While we are quite familiar with the concept of radical local sourcing and seasonal cooking organised by colder and warmer days, (yes, days not months), Ilis still managed to surprise us. We opted for the market menu, which is tailored to the ingredients available on that very day, and were treated to an additional dish. Each course was impeccably well prepared and presented effortlessly, and fun! The natural taste of the ingredients was allowed to shine, offering the rare opportunity to unspoil your palate and rediscover how herbs, vegetables, and meat/fish taste on their own, when not suffocated in fat, sugar, and spices. This, we believe, is the key to the success of Ilis and its chef Mads Refslund: being able to keep the dishes almost naked while never loosing the culinary direction. An absolute standout was the extra dish: raw tuna scraped from the dorsal fin spine, followed by the other side grilled with sesame. It was nothing short of a feast! Another memorable feature is Ilis' book of ingredients, which you can browse through between courses. It offers insight into their sourcing, philosophy, food preferences, and quirks (giggle). Lastly, the open kitchen is from another orbit, with its wood-fired charcoal oven, open barbecues, and dedicated adjacent fish and meat smoking stations. We could rave on and on about it. Very special place, which easily deserves six stars.”
“Based just on service, this place deserves 5 stars but the food and the orchestration of the whole visit deserves a Michelin star. The scallops are incredibly mindful and memorable. If you want to be blown away, skip dessert and opt for the pb and j with foie Gras instead. Wow. amazing experience”
“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!”

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.”

A local spot with a backgyard .
Cold drinks, a good burger & fries,hot dogs,pulled pork, and a bunch of other snacks for your liking .

“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.”
“Such a wonderful bakery with unique flavors. We ordered a Victorian Sponge Cake with Raspberry filling and the whipped cream topping. The cake was gorgeous, tasted amazing and was incredibly light- not overly sweet or heavy. Clio was so helpful in answering any questions I had before ordering and the prices are on par with other local bakeries, if not a bit cheaper.
They also have a storefront that is great to stop by as well. Highly recommend!”
“Nice environment, relaxing music, love the chicken sandwich and lamb Haneeth sandwich waffle fries are delicious I’m hooked on brown sugar cardemon iced coffee and service is always with a Smile no indoor seating yet but they do have limited outdoor seating a must try other foods and beverages available 😃”
“We dropped by Ace's Pizza around 3pm., Brooklyn, 30 Rockefeller Plaza, 5th Ave NYC and it was such a great experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating—amazing service all around. We ordered the Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Caesar Salad, and a 14-inch Pepperoni Pizza. Every single item was delicious! The quality of the food was outstanding. The pepperoni pizza especially stood out—crispy crust, flavorful toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. We really enjoyed everything we ordered, and the overall vibe of the place made the experience even better. Highly recommended if you’re in the area and craving great pizza!”

“Went to Meadowsweet restaurant for dinner with my family. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were so attentive, helpful and nice. The food amazing!recommend this restaurant! We will be returning soon.”
“The food was out of this world. Very fast service and attentive staff.
The restaurant is fairly small, so tables are close to each other and we overheard the conversation of other guests. It didn’t bother us too much but perhaps this is something to keep in mind if you come here for a business meeting.
Overall, very enjoyable dining experience.”
“The food is absolutely delicious and it comes with a big portion! Dunken noodle with crispy duck and the Wagyu fried rice wins the game! The staff is also super friendly in helping and recommending dishes to us! Definitely coming back again for Thai food!”

“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!”
“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!!”
“Overall, a solid dining experience. Everything I tried was flavorful, especially the lamb, which was cooked perfectly and full of taste. The rice was also nicely done and complemented the meal well. However, the chicken wings were a bit of a letdown—too small for my liking, so personally, I wasn’t a fan of those. That said, the drinks were on point and definitely added to the experience. If you’re looking for a place with good food and drinks, this spot is worth checking out, though I’d skip the wings next time.”

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! 🥰🍾🥙”
“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!”
“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.”
“Sosy was the absolute 💯 bomb.com waitor. He moved around like he was protecting his establishment. He was amazing serving and hosting. I love this place because of him ❤️ will be back”
“Incredible tasting menu!! The tasting menu + wine pairing is our go-to for a fun night out. It feels like a screaming deal at $58 for 10 decadent courses. We love Traif and the upbeat energy of the staff.”
“Fantabulous Ambience. Lively and lovely staff. Great food. Loved everything.”
“Love this place: amazing food, nice atmosphere and friendly service!”
“This is a restaurant that redefines traditional Thai cuisine. At first glance, the menu might not seem particularly impressive, but each dish carries hints of innovation. Take the curry rice noodles, for example—while curry with noodles or rice is common, pairing it with rice noodles stands out as unique. The drink menu is also full of Southeast Asian flair, making it highly recommended.”
“Stumbled across Chavela's totally on accident(thanks maps for taking me to the wrong place.) The food, the drinks, the service, all so amazing. Our server, I think her name was Mary, was amazing and friendly. I can't wait to come back!!!”
“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.”
“Delicious food I had in long time with exclusive tast of fruits herbs and meat”
“Finally tried Bar Bete! Overall a nice experience, as the service was very friendly. We tried a nice mix of small plates and mains, as well as the yellow cake with chocolate frosting for dessert.
The tuna toast and chicken liver pate were fantastic, truly memorable. The leeks and bass were way too salty for my taste. The noise level was also quite high, so very difficult to have a conversation.
Would definitely try again, but maybe just to share more of the small plates.”
“The food is consistently delicious and is always fresh but the portions are small”
“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!”
“Had a group dinner for a friend's birthday and absolutely LOVED the place! The ambiance was so cool and I could have stayed there all nice. Friendly attentive service. Great neighborhood spot!”
“We were sat at the bar which one person was basically sitting in the kitchen and someone was sweeping right behind us. It’s a beautiful restaurant but I really don’t understand why they sit people right in the middle of the kitchen. I even asked to move but no accommodation followed. Appetizers are great and food was good in general. A little expensive for the quality.”
“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”
“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".”
“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.”
“It’s good mainly because it’s hard to get authentic bengali dishes in Nyc. They really need to tone down the heat level on certain dishes like the Phuchka and Chilli Chicken. If we speak about authenticity, most Calcutta restaurants do let you tone down the heat….even roadside Phuchka sellers.
The parantha was dry and hard. Everything else was as close to the authentic flavor as you can get outside Kolkata.”
“Despite a rainy day and a mediocrely designed logo, my low expectations were delightfully challenged by The Nuua Table's Thai brunch menu, a unique concept I had never encountered before, and one that greatly piqued my curiosity. From its unassuming exterior, I did not expect the extraordinary experience that unfolded.
Greeted and seated, we immediately discovered an ambiance beyond expectation. It was clean, woody, filled with greenery and deep orange accents, all bathed in warm light. Despite being packed, it was not loud. Every detail, from the Thai inspired fork and sea city patterned napkins to the pretty striped cups and the rainbow window on the door, showcased immense effort and care.
We started with Spicy Fries, Pan Seared Vegetable Dumplings, and Pink Grapefruit Salad, all beautifully presented and delicious. The grapefruit salad, though sweet, was perfectly balanced by fish sauce. While I was not a huge fan of the good dumplings, my friends loved them. The fries were thick, perfectly crispy outside, and soft and creamy inside. It was clear the chef masterfully understood the ingredients, prompting us to order an additional entree (the Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowl).
All entrees were beautifully executed, suggesting upscale restaurant experience. The Roasted Mushroom Noodle Bowl was delicious, savory, and sweet, with a subtle lingering spice, even for a non mushroom lover. The Egg Toast was a great Thai pancake interpretation, savory and pleasantly fishy, with crispy boiled egg for texture; highly recommended. The Chicken Kuay Teow Kua and Shrimp Pad Thai were just okay; I would suggest exploring other, more interesting options here.
We could not leave without dessert. The sole option available was delicious; its meringue, surprisingly light, and a creamy, subtly spiced part made for an interesting flavor. We were all happy, though we wished we had tried other main dishes instead of the Chicken Kuay Teow Kua and Shrimp Pad Thai.
Our unnamed server was exceptional: proactively refilling water, describing dishes well, and even swapping plates after starters. His hawk like attentiveness meant we only needed to ask for the check. The check itself was presented in a cute folder, featuring an illustration of the restaurant door. Despite many tables, their work ethic was incredible. 10 out of 10.
The bathroom was perfection: super clean, smelling of citrus gum, with a thoughtful orchid plant, that aligns with the cuisine. A last check up trip was a delightful cherry on top.
I highly recommend The Nuua Table and will absolutely return, even going out of my way to try their dinner menu and interesting cocktails. Discovering this truly wonderful Brooklyn restaurant was a joy. Perhaps a logo redesign could better reflect the incredible craftsmanship of their interior and meticulously presented food.”
“We decided to check out this bar while staying in the area over the weekend and didn’t know what to expect but were blown away!
Amazing decor, great ambiance, it was packed and lively on a Saturday night around 10pm in contrast to the quiet streets of downtown brooklyn. We absolutely loved the Raspberry Shrub drink - the white vinegar added a little bit of a sour kick and made the cocktail one of the most memorable we’ve had. Super unique menu and fun food items. Great service and vibes. We’ll be back!”
“Ultimate Thai food. Be ready to bring the heat. Friendly staff and great food.”
“Stopped by this place for some comfort Indian food and it was perfect. Really loved the chicken tikka masala and the cheese naan with enough for leftovers the next day. The service was great too! Will def be coming back.”
“Food is amazing!!! Super traditional with a rustic country charm. The flavor combinations are terrific and exciting for the palate. The rhum was strong and cocktails are mixed very well. Dishes priced well!”
“Innovative, delicious dishes, thoughtful service, beautiful atmosphere, and an incredible mission. I particularly enjoyed the beef tartare, chawanmushi, and sweet potatoes.”
“Was strolling in the area when I noticed this joint bumping.
Loved the cocktail.
Lamb hummus, warm and scrumptious with prob the one of the best pita bread I’ve ever had.
Octopus skewers were cooked to perfection. Tender and flavourful
Snapper ceviche with a spicy twist.
I’m spoilt tonight.”
“Lovely neighborhood restaurant with friendly staff. I could just eat the warm foccacia and be call it a meal. Delish! We got a variety of pizzas including the vegan one...they'll bring us back here.”
“Went inside on a whim and so glad we did. The handrolls were incredible. The fish was great quality and creativity was next level. Our favorites were the xo scallop (must get), tuna poke, salmon serrano, aka ebi, toro scallion, and spicy lobster. Not as big of a fan of cooked/fried fish in sushi, but tried the coconut shrimp and spicy crab dynamite due to the many recommendations, and thought they were just okay. Also didn’t think the caviar starter was anything special.”
“Food was great! And bonus, the husband/wife team at Concrete were so welcoming and made you feel like they had you over for dinner.”
“the next time I make love to my wife, I'll be thinking about the burger I ate here. phenomenal!”
“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.”
“Great food!. Im usually not one for Chinese food but had read about the spicy fish and wanted to try. I was not disappointed. The fish was incredible as were the greens. The pudding dessert witb red bean and sticky rice was perfect especially after the spicy fish :)
Service was friendly and food came put quick.”
“The Canary is by far the best locals bar in Crown Heights. Everyone is very friendly. Excellent food with an array of the best beer and whiskey Ireland has to offer. Best Guinness pour I have found outside of Ireland! Live music on Sundays earlier in the evening. A must see if you are in Brooklyn!”
“Posto gradevole e accogliente, personale attento,premuroso,gentile, cordiale. Il top 🔝 Si mangia benissimo lo consiglio vivamente!!”
“love it. You won't be disappointed, just try it.🇬🇪❤️💯 Keep up the good work guys!!!”
“Really enjoyed the shashuka and challah bread. The shakshuka had fantastic flavor and was one of the best I've ever had.
I liked the falafel which comes on a bed of tahini. The falafel were not dry and had good flavor. The tzatziki was a bit salty.
They have full bar and limited beer on draft. Prices were fair for location and quality.
Prices were mezze items ($9 each), shakshuka ($21) and a beer ($9), this is fair pricing. Chill environment overall.
Service was good. They have indoor or outdoor seating. The design inside is very interesting. Bathroom was clean.
I would recommend and will be back.”
“Everything that was breaded and fried were excellent— the asparagus, mushroom. The breading was so light and crunchy and flavorful, and perfect with all the sauces that came with it. The monkey bread was amazing with the garlic butter. The lemon pasta was great as well. Portion sizes are on the smaller side.”
“Delicious wood fired pizza with amazing toppings including vegan options. Wonderful, cozy environment and eclectic playlist. You won’t be disappointed!!”
“Chill local spot worth going to even if you're not a local. The burger.... the burger, oh, and the burger. Did I mention the burger? Anyway, we had a bunch of other menu items, and everything is really, really good. We eat out a lot, and Swoonys definitely deserves a spot way up the list of places we really like a lot. Already well on our way to becoming regulars.”

“Definitely one the best restaurants in the Brooklyn area. Has a unique cuisine & the atmosphere is very chill & service is great. My favorite dish is the Salmon D’ Oro which is a green rice wit peas & peppers, very well marinated & on top of rice is a crispy salmon & salsa criolla. I always look forward to coming here. Great Spot!”
“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.”
“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.”
“We had a birthday party for our twin daughters' 30th birthday at Leroy's in Brooklyn for 13 people and the staff went out of their way to make it special. There was an initial snafu with our reservation. but they got to work, reorganized the seating for us and were phenomenal for the rest of the evening-- wonderful place and a great evening - shout out to Wilmar and his crew.”
“I was in the building to visit a non-profit organization and they recommended I should consider getting coffee from Bartleby's Cafe. I ordered a large hot blended coffee and tried a ham and cheese croissant. The best croissant I've had in a long time. I live in the Flushing Queens area and none of those pastry shops offer anything as good and delicious. I strongly suggest you find to to get your coffee and something to eat from here when you're in the area. Friendly staff (who smile), great coffee (that doesn't taste burnt), a croissant with an actual slice of ham (and cheese) and a nice quiet place to enjoy your meal. It will be worth your time to go. All of the Flushing, Queens pastry shops can learn a proper way to provide service and delicious food from Bartleby's Cafe.”

“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”
“Come schlep to Coney Island so you can eat your hot dogs at the location where competitors guzzle endless dogs every July 4th. Stand in their shadows as you sample the seafood, hot dogs, and burgers offered at this Nathan’s.
There’s seating beside the building should you prefer to consume your processed meats with some shade.”

“I’ve lost 83 pounds over the past year thanks to a combination of regular exercise and CookUnity’s incredible meal plan service. If you’re on the fence, let me be clear — this service is the real deal. I’ve tried nearly everything they offer, including the vegan options, and not one meal has disappointed. Every dish is bursting with flavor and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. CookUnity made eating healthy not just easy, but something I actually look forward to every day.”
“Nice Place Food was fantastic. Oxtail delicious. Highly recommend. Bar Cocktail's are a disappointment. After sending the first Drink back the 2nd wasn't much better. Waitress explained they are prefixed. Please invest in a good Bartender who can make fresh Drinks. Thank you. Would love to come back .”
“The food is great as always. Only weird thing was people who had reservations like myself, had to wait in a very long line with the tourists and walk-ins to get a seat. Wondering what the point of the reservation was, if you get sat 30-45 minutes later alongside the walk-ins”

“A gem. Go eat everything. Ideally with 3 more friends so you eat the whole menu.
Clams, shrimp & lobster are my favorites. Fish has run out every time so try come earlier. Folks like to linger so expect to wait - grab a drink nearby. Love the vibe, service and warmth of it all.
If it’s too loud, ask to sit outside. Don’t write a negative review about it - support small businesses~ it’s extremely hard running a restaurant.”
“TLDR: If you like hambaggu - probably one of the best versions in New York. The catch is it's also one of the priciest. If you are a light eater and value quality - this is the place.
I came on the weekend because there's no way I wasn't going to try the NYC hambaggu shop. On the weekends they only sell the sets which are $35 and come with rice, a soup, pickles, sides and potato salad.
The patty is a 50/50 American/Japanese wagyu blend, you have the choice of three sauces. We got the demi-glace which was deliciously rich and velvety with a strong wine flavor. The grated daikon and ponzo was also tasty. We didn't get the pomodoro but I'd imagine it would be a bit brighter.
The patty is well-seasoned but the blend is a bit leaner than I'd expect. If you've tried Hikiniku to Come, this is juicy but not as fatty or soft.
The portion size was a bit small even for my wife who doesn't eat much. I found myself taking comically small bites so I didn't exhaust my patty too quickly.
The sides themselves were very tasty but I wish there was more of it. A la carte is supposedly served during the week. If I could have gotten an extra patty a la carte or larger portions of the sides - it might have been okay. Between two drinks and two sets, we spent around $100+ and left hungry.
It's early days so we'll see what happens. It also gets incredibly crowded so come early and its a small team so you'll wait a bit for your set too.”
“We had an amazing experience here this evening. The atmosphere was extremely relaxing and chill. The simple artistic decor creates a serene atmosphere. The food is delicious. We especially loved the beef tartar, duck, miso cod, milk bread, and shirt rib. Sticky toffee pudding was rich, but somewhat delicate. Cocktails were well balanced. Everyone was extremely attentive and the attention to detail made the entire experience one to cherish. I highly recommend this place. It's tucked away, but worth the trip. Looking forward to our next visit!”
