“Very authentic, homemade style Yemeni dishes with fresh ingredients and a variety of choices. The flavours are very close to the original Yemeni food. What I loved the most is the out of the clay oven bread with the hot dipping sauce, EXCEPTIONAL! There is a little room for improvement with the service, they were generous and professional but understaffed for a busy restaurant. I recommend lamb hanith and chicken kabse dishesKid-friendliness: There are several meals suitable for the children“

“The Food and Service was amazing you should definitely try the chicken sandwich it's really good !! Also the ambiance is nice and it's a great place also to get work done. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to try new cafes.“
“Cute Black Owned Vegan restaurant right off Nostrand. I love coming here every time I visit Brooklyn. The music is always on the right playlist, the aesthetics give an inviting atmosphere to want to stay for longer, & the food completes the mission of good vibes. I love their vinyl/retail area, very loungy. They have a cute little bar area as well. I recommend the Bake & Saltfish, French Toast, Lobster Roll, & The Fish Cakes. Each dish is unique in its own way and full of flavor. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. They get pretty busy in the evening so make sure you get a reservation.Vegetarian options: All vegan menu“
“Excellent authentic Georgian food. Khinkali were flavorful, brothy, yummy. The khachapuri with beans and cheese was delicious. The chanakhi was perfectly cooked, outstanding flavors and the freshly baked bread it comes with is doughy and fluffy. The appetizer of cheese, yogurt, and corncakes was very interesting and unique. Great food and would definitely return.“
“I visited Hibiscus Cafe less than an hour before closing on a Sunday evening. The café was really busy, and everyone (including myself) was ordering complicated drinks. A few folks ordered things that required ingredients that were out, and something like that could throw anyone off their game at the end of their shift. However, the woman working was handling everything so smoothly and efficiently, and she was just plain awesome. My matcha latte was also delicious! I can’t wait to go back!“
“Wow! This is a little hidden gem. This is probably the best coffee I've ever had in NYC. Doesn't taste burnt at all like most other places and it has a nutty aftertaste. Really delicious - doesn't even need syrup flavors. The chocolate chip cookie is divine and tastes homemade! I'm so happy I stumbled upon this little hole in the wall. It's tiny inside but there are a few tables / stool seats by the window. It's a great spot to bring a book and people watch. They have a bunch of other pastries that look delicious as well and I'm excited to try them all! This spot is just steps from the L train at Grand St. Don't miss it! Super friendly service, quick, and delicious. What else could you need?“
“WINNER IS A WINNER. Wow guys, this place deserves more love! Only 18 reviews (?!) (at the time I'm writing this) shocking. Are the sandwiches teetering on $20? Yes. Are they worth it? 100%! Firstly, the sandwich is HUGE. I definitely could only eat half so if you want to come and split a sammy with someone that's a smart way to approach this menu. I ordered the midnight club (a somewhat different take on a cubano sandwich) fried pork, ham, Swiss cheese, mojo dojonnase and pickled jalapeños on a hoagie. I also opted to try one of their sauces, the ramp ranch as well as a hibiscus Arnold Palmer. So, let's break this sandwich down: - the hoagie itself is a beautiful, fresh piece of bread. Perfectly toasted and crispy exterior but fluffy, buttery and bouncey middle. They also throw a glaze on the top that's adds such a nice touch to the bread. - fried pork: think of a dark and deep fried mozzarella stick but without the cheese. This pork is tender and full of flavor. I absolutely love the breaded coating on this fry. It's crispy and crumbly and so so good. - love the ham & Swiss classic combo. The portions of everything it perfect for almost every bite - the dijonnase sauce on the bottom soaks into the bread just enough and really pairs well with all the other toppings - the pickled jalapeños are also a perfect addition of acidity and pop of spice The sauce is expensive at $5 but I'm so glad I got it. It was a special ranch and I'm happy that they basically provide a bowl of it for the price I also really liked my hibiscus Arnold Palmer. Extremely refreshing and a nice light lunch drink option. Just sweet enough. The space itself is gorgeous. I was not sure what to expect based on the minimal pics online but they have some bar/ counter seating at the front and a decent sized dining section in the back completel with sky lights and a shuffleboard (I think that's what it's called?) for night use I believe. I think they shift from cafe into a bar at night. As another review mentioned, you order at the front counter and the provide you with a table number and you can sit down and eat. The bartender was very helpful with me choosing my sandwich and was super friendly. One of the staff also saw that I wasn't able to finish the second half of my sandwich and came and brought me a box and I didn't even have to ask. This truly is a neighborhood gem and I will absolutely be back to try more items on their menu. 4.8/5“
“Iconic Williamsburg brunch with a divine menu. The pancakes were deliciously fluffy study syrup that didn't overpower. Sandwiches looked great too. Quality of food and unbeatable location are the highlights of this venue for me. Excellent coffee.“
“Mom and I visited Guria for the first time on a Saturday, late afternoon. The young man at the counter assured us he would answer any questions. We sat down in this bright, clean cafe and had some delicious Borscht, which Mom described as "tangy". There was a lady in the kitchen kneading dough and bringing out freshly baked Georgian breads. We had wonderful mushroom bread fresh from the oven! Mom had a large cup of foaming coffee which looked and smelled terrific, and we shared a piece of Georgian baklava which, unlike Greek baklava, has thick layers of pastry and is filled with walnuts and raisins--loved it! I will absolutely return to try Guria's "batons" of shoti (amazingly chewy Georgian bread) and the Lobiani (Georgian red bean bread). Dumplings can be ordered in advance. There were several varieties of soup and breads available for take-out. Thanks to the baklava, I was able to resist the tempting chocolate chip cookies displayed under a glass dome. I tremendously appreciated the patience and kindness of the young man who answered my questions and served us with a smile. I am so impressed with the hard-working lady, tirelessly baking in the kitchen. Thanks, Guria, for a lovely lunch!“
“This place is amazing! I’ve been here many times with my family and friend and honestly, I had a blast every time I came here! The fee to play is very affordable and their wide selection of games can never leave me feeling bored! Their boba tea is really good and really cute!! My friend and I came here and I can’t help but die of laughter being here! The atmosphere is very warm and nice and the interior design is just so cute! Would come again and play some more!“
“I've been loving La Sandwicherie since their original food cart operation by McCarren Park. So glad they opened an official shop! The menu is well curated, all ingredients are quality, sandwiches are made to order and everything I’ve ever had here tastes fresh and delicious.“
“I’ve been here two times and it is my new favorite cafe. Both times I got the tetela de nopales. I’m excited to try everything on the menu, but I liked it so much I couldn’t resist getting it again! Cafe de olla is delicious and their espresso is nice. The staff is the best, the music is great. Coming here puts me in a good mood. Cant recommend more“
“Boris & Horton is an absolute gift to our day every time we visit—a true gem and an easy favorite. Since opening in Williamsburg, the Eloise latte and a treat for my pup have become staples of our little morning routine. The staff’s warm welcome and genuine kindness contribute to a community that is inclusive and filled with pure joy. Thoughtful and creative, Boris & Horton is truly something special. Grateful for the friends and fun memories made over workdays spent here.“
“The waffle was freshly baked, loved the cinnamon take on the batter too. The pistachio gelato was delicious, very natural and not overly sugary. Such an unexpected find in that neighborhood. Definitely worth to check it out!Parking: Parking will be challenging but there are meters available.“
“This review was long overdue. I’ve been coming here for years even though I don’t live nearby. Seitan’s helper has the best vegan sandwiches in NYC. I travel to the city specifically for seitan’s helper, it is worth the two hour trip plus traffic. Everything on the menu is amazing. I recommend EVERYTHING! Every time I make the trip, I make sure to stock up. i usually get the triple threat which is one of my favorites. If you’re unsure what to get an If you’re unsure what to get i recommend building your own sandwich.All the seitan, breads , sauce's and etc are all made from scratch. You can tell a lot of love goes into what they do. Not only is their food amazing but so is their customer service. They are so welcoming and accommodating. I wanted to purchase something for my toddler daughter to eat so I asked if they had a kids menu. They don't have a kids menu but without hesitation made a grilled cheese just for my daughter. I would eat here everyday if I could.Vegetarian options: Menu is veganDietary restrictions: Vegan“
“I love love love this place and order burritos frequently from here as a weekend treat. However, my order is frequently wrong. I would definitely check your burrito before taking it away! I am lactose intolerant and get the veggie burrito with vegan cheese and maybe 25% of the time they give me a chorizo burrito with regular cheese. Today is one of those days ???. I should have checked! I would say that this place would be a nightmare if you have life threatening dietary restrictions.“
“Cute breakfast spot. Space is small but has a cozy atmosphere. Had one of the omlette dishes and french toast - tasty and good value. Matcha latte wasn't great, very milky and not mixed particularily well. It was pretty awkward in the indoor sit-down section because there wasn't any background music playing. Next time I'd probably just order to go.“
“Really sweet nail shop. My manicure has lasted more than a week which is unheard of for a conventional manicure for me. Shop is very clean and cute. My only complaint was that the woman who did my nails gave zero massage and applied the color too fast and it bubbled up. Another person fixed it for me and it’s great!“
“Such a lovely space with cool specialty drinks. I got the taro latte and it was a great treat for someone who can’t have caffeine and my husband got the espresso and tonic water drink, so refreshing for warm days. Their croissant is yummy too! Love the music and vibe!“
“I visited the establishment a week ago, came late and couldn’t enjoy my favorite Adjarian khachapuri, we were offered instead just warmed khachapuri, which was no worse than what I wanted. BUT I was disappointed by the fact that if you come an hour before closing, the only thing you can enjoy are leftovers and salads..In general, these are the things that I can say about salads. The salads tasted very disgusting (the ones I ordered), the usual vegetable salad was cut into huge cubes of bell peppers and cucumbers, and there weren’t any other ingredients; further, the taste of this salad was like metal, with the smell of old oil and the smell of stale onions, I was very amazed by this and I do not recommend eating their fresh salad in the evening if you are a harmful person like me. Next, I took mushroom salad, it tasted no worse than fresh salad; the taste of the salad was reminiscent of coconut, oddly enough, and also the taste of greasy oil, as if the mushrooms were fried in a ton of oil and there was no particular hurry to remove them from the stove after frying; I don’t recommend the mushroom salad. And so, I gave it four stars because it was nice and quiet, and the guys were quite nice to us.“
“A wonderful and wide selection of pastries, tarts, muffins and sweats. I assume the assortment changes regularly but don’t expect a huge variety within a genre. All very yummy and wonderful for sharing if your palette is adventurous. I understand their savory and egg dishes are wonderful but I stayed with the sweets and a perfectly prepared cappuccino. The owner and the staff were a delight, patient and helpful. If you are near Vanderbilt and Dean, do pop in!“
“Lillo is the best! I can’t believe I have not written a review for him yet! It’s a hole in the wall, but everything I have tried was delicious! Really good Italien cuisine. I try to come back here every time I’m in the city. It’s cash only and fills up pretty quickly for dinner time, so come early and prepared. The owner has such a calm and friendly vibe.Thank you, Lillo ❤️“
“We found you on our trip to Brooklyn in March and we are still dreaming about the amazing turmeric oatmeal breakfast - so great that we walked over the Brooklyn Bridge the following day for another portion! Great service, great staff, we will be back and we will be telling all our friends to come too!“
“Legitimately delicious and inventive. Love the bowls with the stuff- esp the cabbage and the pickles. Tried the chicken and the falafel and were blown away. They’re also excellent with delivery. Only wish would be the ability to add falafel a la carte via online ordering- rather than buying a whole extra bowl. The option doesn’t exist in Caviar/Grubhub.“
“Whenever I'm looking for a place to meet with a friend or to treat myself with a fresh cup of coffee and delicious food – "Black milk coffee and Crepe" is the place!I've been coming here since I moved to the neighborhood and I have to admit they stole my heart! Every visit feels special: from kind staff and welcoming atmosphere to creative drinks and outstanding food. The owners also work here, so you can be assured you will get the best treatment!I've tried their sour, as well as sweet, crepes and I loved the variety of them. My favorites are smoked salmon and prosciutto crepes. Always freshly made and mouthwatering! They have a good choice of baked goods and desserts so you'll definitely find something to your liking. I've tried many carrot cakes in my life and can definitely say their cake is the best! Moist and moderately sweet. The coffee is so good, I never leave without a bag to enjoy it at home.The atmosphere is uplifting yet, invites you to get lost in your thoughts. I am looking forward to the warmer days when I can relax in their cozy backyard and enjoy my most favorite breakfast or lunch.“
“This is my families favorite bah mi place in Brooklyn (and we have tried a bunch)! We get the chicken bah mi. All the ingredients are fresh and perfectly seasoned, each bite is so flavorful! The bread is the right balance of crunchy and soft too, which is something I am very picky about. lmpressively, I believe they make their own pate and mayo - which is so delicious!!I also LOVE their andes mint hot chocolate!!Couldn't recommend the place enough - are excited to try more things on the menu!“
“Lips Cafe is our go to spot in District 43! Great place for networking, working from home, and the drinks are second to none. We love Lips! Thank you for being such a key stakeholder our community and partner to Assembly Member Brian Cunningham“
“Run don't walk to get the egg biscuit sandwich! Literally one of the best breakfast sandwiches I ever had. Don't sleep on their coffee either. VERY reasonably priced as well, friendly staff and just a great place to work on your laptop. A gem of a place in Sunset Pk.“
“It's a beautiful day in Brooklyn NY and I have uncovered another amazing cafe in the beautiful diverse neighborhood of Sunset Park. Liebre Cafe sits cozy on an idyllic tree lined corner of the heart of the neighborhood, steps away from the iconic hilltop of sunset park. Edgy spanish music greets you in this warm, naturally bright space with several different types of seating. A small case of baked goods, some specialty menu items and a medium sized beverage menu calls out your name. Im always wary of ordering my go-to matcha latte when it appears on the "other drinks" menu. As an empanada lover the mushroom spinach empanada was calling out to me. Cashier who is also a barista was super nice and attentive. He warmed the empanada for me, and got me my matcha latte quickly. The matcha was a beautiful green color, the milk frothed nicely with just enough ice. I was very impressed by how well this drink was made. The empanada was also very delicious. It was a baked empanada but the shell was thin and not excessively doughy. The thick chimmichurri style dipping sauce on the side was herby and savory and so so delicious; kind of like a cross between pesto and chimmichurri. I highly recommend asking for this if you're eating an empanada here. Overall I found this establishment cozy and inviting and a great place to relax or get some work done. I will definitely be coming by here again!!“
“Have frequented this cafe on numerous occasions:(1) day to day coffee , seasonal lattes and pastries — fresh selection (try the pineapple bun and egg tart), no frills prompt and friendly service with fast WiFi and comfortable seating for remote working(2) jazz night - homey ambiance featuring local musicians with a fun vibe(3) wine / sake tasting - finely curated selection of affordable and approachable organic wines and interesting sake from different Japanese prefecturesExcellent and unique addition to the neighborhood.“
“This morning's visit to Devoción in Williamsburg was a delightful immersion into the craft of coffee. Opting for one of their signature pour overs, I experienced a single origin coffee from Colombia that truly showcased the richness and depth of flavor that Devoción prides itself on. Devoción's commitment to freshness is evident, as they source their beans directly from Colombia and expedite the process from harvest to cup to maintain peak freshness, a detail that's palpably reflected in each sip.The ambiance at Devoción adds to the overall experience. The space is beautifully designed with natural light streaming through a large skylight, exposed brick walls, and comfortable seating that invites you to linger. While Wi-Fi is available during the week, it's purposefully not offered on weekends, encouraging guests to disconnect and fully immerse themselves in the coffee experience and the serene environment.For anyone passionate about coffee or looking for a high-quality coffee experience, Devoción is a must-visit.“
“This is my favorite Mexican place in all of Brooklyn. Such love and care in all of the food. Good but lowkey music, cool art, lots of space. The service is amazing. Also everything is gluten free and nut free so great for allergies. So many vegan and vegetarian options. The meat they do serve is selective and delicious. Super accommodating. I really love this place. Would definitely have my birthday here or something, or even a small engagement party. Really can’t give enough love to this spot. It’s one of my happy place restaurants.Vegetarian options: For sure can eat here as a veg. Menu is 90% veg.Dietary restrictions: I have celiac and I always am safe eating here!Kid-friendliness: I’ve brought kids here a lot! They’re great with kids here. But still more of a vibey adult energy.“
“I came by myself and sat at the “bar”. The food was delicious and plentiful. The atmosphere is cute and authentic-you are surrounded by spices, middle eastern cookbooks and other market treats. Everything is fresh and Edy and my server Rachel were lovely and friendly. Their food recommendations were also helpful for a newbie like me - all in all a great experience.“
“Table 40 exceeded my expectations for our Hanukkah party! The food was not only impeccably presented but also a delightful culinary experience. Each dish showcased a perfect blend of flavors, catering to diverse palates. The attention to detail and freshness of ingredients stood out, leaving a lasting impression on our guests. Table 40's catering service is an absolute gem, making our celebration truly memorable.“
“Cozy little place. We ordered matcha and macchiato, both were amazing! The baristas were super kind so the place had an overall welcoming and warm vibe. When you plan a visit just keep in mind that there isn’t a lot of seating available inside. The cafe is attached to a home decor studio and a salon which you can access from the inside too.“
“A lovely cafe with its unique aesthetics. I had the cafe con leche and their housemade baklava.✨Cafe con leche was kinda like cappuccino with caramelized sugar. Highly recommend this drink!Baklava was slightly soggy at the bottom. But it was ok.“
“There wasn't much espresso options towards later the day ( cold brew container was low but probably had 2-3 glasses worth)The decorations are on point! The place has a lot of real plants everywhere. The couches were comfy( not sure how often they are cleaned but they didn't smell).The tables by the wall had outlets. The front of the place is more brighter while back felt more speakeasy.I got the detox juice. It tasted like a typical green juiceOn a week night, street parking was easier in comparison to the other parts of Brooklyn. I was able to park right in front.“
“This place , service and its menu is unique.The food presentation is beautiful and its taste is amazing. Must try “Berry Street Dream Latte”Their atmosphere and music is very relaxing for the brain.Vegetarian options: ?? Very goodKid-friendliness: ?? Great“
“Look y'all, there's really no getting around this Sips can do almost everything your other favorite breakfast/coffee spot can do but better and at a lower price point. Many of the breakfast sandwiches are under $10 which today is kinda wild. At that price point there was no lack of portion or flavor, in fact I was still full on into the evening. The only and I mean ONLY critique I could find was merely an excess of cream cheese on the lox sandwich but tbh I never bring that up on reviews cause on that point to each is own just be sure to ask for less if that's not your thing. This is a 5 star spot its undeniable.“
“You have to come see a movie here. The vibe is so welcoming and awesome. They have lots of good movie theater food as well as this awesome menu of delicious stuff. The theater is beautiful and intimate. I loved watching a movie in here with my kids. And I can’t say enough about the Stuart Cinema team! It’s Sesame Street love in here.“
“Homemade, authentic food that’s modern. Food was phenomenal, we had the the tofu and mushrooms and the salmon small plates. It was so good, salmon was surprisingly not fishy and the condiments were fabulous. The sake slushies were amazing too! It’s the perfect date spot! Small, insanely clean and very comfortable. I absolutely loved this place and will be back a thousand times!“
“We are visiting from out of town moving a family member to Brooklyn. While walking around we stopped into Skytown looking for drinks and food. While here we met the owner, Eri. He was so welcoming and recommended great drinks and food. It is such a cozy little spot and the food was FANTASTIC! We will definitely be back!“
“Awesome local coffee shop, always doing events for the community and providing a safe and cool environment for their customers. The staff is super friendly and they gave us some great recommendations, I had the brown sugar latte and a pistachio latte that was one of the best I’ve ever had, definitely coming back.“
“Friendly, light-hearted atmosphere and good service and food. I had a Spanish latte - espresso with condensed milk (maybe not quite as sweet as Vietnamese coffee) and a smoked salmon croffle. The filling was delicious and balanced with just enough fresh salmon, capers and cream cheese for my liking. I would have preferred it if the croffle was more deeply cooked with a crispier exterior however. My next visit will be for the açaí bowls.I did appreciate that they give you a free croissant with purchase of coffee. Another reason to stop in and give them a try.“
“Been meaning to leave a review for a while. The best coffee shop. The drinks are consistently solid, my go to is the matcha latte - they do it right. The owner is the nicest person on earth, and the staff is always so friendly and chill. Always feel so relaxed and cool here. Great place to get some work done, catch up on reading, or just hang out and do nothing. They have great community events too.“
“Truly the best coffee shop/cafe in the neighborhood (maybe even all of NYC)! The coffee is excellent and the food is always delicious. The owners are so friendly and they put a lot of care into what they do. We especially love the arepa and the avocado toast, but you can’t go wrong with anything you order. This place is very special and I highly recommend!Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“Cute little cafe in Park slope on 7th Ave. Classic French bistro food, but light and not over the top menu list like those in Manhattan . It's a neighborhood spot that is casual and caters to the local families. It doesn't try to be fancy, just excellent in being reliable.The soups are fantastic and corque Madame and Eggs Benedict are always a classic go to items. Their crepes batter are exceptionally well balanced in savoriness and sweetness. Highly recommend themThe cocktails are simple and to the point. It's not necessarily a destination spot, but if you are in the area during a weekend walkabout or having a lazy afternoon nearby, you should definitely stop by .Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly , even those who have strollers“
“Excellent espresso and priced at $2.75 which is as close to Italy prices I've ever found in NYC. Also the "drip" coffee is actually a pour over. It was fragrant, fruity and delicious. Lastly if you order to stay you get a glass/china cup so you don't have to throw anything into landfill.“

“Amazing breakfast sandwich. Chicken sausage was so good and flavorful, spicy mayo was perfect. Perfectly toasted brioche was the cherry on top. They have a full menu and specials like corn bread french toast and shrimp and grits, will try that next time. Cappuccino was really good. Few seats inside, handful of tables outside. Food was made to order and unexpectedly very quickly. We left and almost came back to get something to go for lunch. Staff went above and beyond to welcome us in... definitely recommend“
