Sergey Morozov: Get steak! Pasture raised meat that's aged 40 days. It's one of the most tender and flavourful steaks I've ever had. If you like steak get the largest piece as everyone in your party will want a bite!
Gianna Nebbia: This prosciutto di Parma Benedict is the best single brunch item I’ve ever had. Pappardelle with oxtail ragu was also very very good.
Dan Sohayda: Good brunch selection with plenty of cocktails available too. No crowd at all for brunch on a Saturday which seemed odd for how good it was. Take advantage before it gets found out!

Julian Ehrhardt: Excellent hearty unpretentious food. Lovely lovely staff
Katherine Tasheff: eat. drink. be happy.
Luna Putzulu aka "luna matto": Love love love Provini. Off the beaten path, for Park Slope. The Homemade cheesecake will slay you. I've spent too many hours on the patio with too many bottles of wine, but that's okay.

Jeff Byrnes: Absolutely stunning house-made pastas, lovely cocktails, and delightful staff. A must-go!
Stephanie Bono: The toretta de melanzane (fried eggplant and burratta) appetizer, super fresh house-made pastas and the frozen cappuccino are must haves.

Jase: Try this: Pan roasted chicken with charred spring onion, baked polenta. sooo good!
Alex Rainert: The Bloody Mary comes with pickled fennel (!!!), is crazy delicious and super spicy but you're not going to be a baby about it, are you?
Alex Rainert: Pay attention, delicious pie lovers! Rucola features a "Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie of the day." SAY WHAT?! You need to order this now. They make some of the best pies you'll ever eat.
