Brooklyn has its very own winery?! These guys are right on the beautiful Red Hook pier, offer tastings on the weekends and even have a killer wine club where they send you 12 special bottles a year.
Tastings for $5 Saturdays from 12-4!
This is one of the best places to buy one of the best-tasting spirits, Sorel. Great whiskey and local (Long Island/North Fork) wines.
The staff here are super friendly and helpful - they're happy to make recommendations and I've never had a miss w/one. Love the $12 and under table and the free wine tastings & classes. Great shop.
I'm no connoisseur (tend to pick wine by the design on the label), but it seems like they keep the cheaper stuff on a table in the middle, and in general have a great selection.
Try the strawberry cinnamon glazed baby back ribs - paired with bob foley merlot. excellent!
One of my top 5 fav. Get the spicy tuna, the scallop, short rib slider, broccoli rabe, and bacon doughnuts. More than enough food for two.
Get the scallops. OMG.
Incredible selection of amaro. If you're curious, ask the bartender if you can try a few. Fantastic team - these people really love Italian food and wine, and make you feel right at home.
Lovely new spot in the hood - bartenders and the manager are super friendly and have a great deal of knowledge about everything they serve!
V tiny in here, you have to be okay with being as smooshed as possible. The grilled octopus and all the pastas make it worth it.
My favorite restaurant in Brooklyn! Absolutely adore their grilled octopus. Their other food is great, but this one is a must!
I just love this place consistent and great!
Grilled fish is the best... I highly recommend the grilled octopus.....
The food was fantastic, the beet salad was so great, shrimp Oreganata was so light and string beans done just right. The Snowflake dessert drink was outstanding’
Best lemon cookies around : )
After you eat go next door & pick up their DELISH lemon cookies! They have a wide selection of cookies & food! Heaven
I love this store. Small but great selection, knowledgeable staff. What more could you want in a wine seller?
The boxed wine here is top shelf stuff.
Wine tasting is great on Thursday.
Straightforward, home-style Italian food, with the BEST garlic knots. Get the house salad, followed by fried zucchini and something from their specials menu.
Good stuff
Fresh, delicious, can't go wrong with anything on this menu...and top it off with zeppoles!
Solid food, pretty interior - we had ramen and a curry along with chicken skewers. All were yummy.
Só good :-)
Literally every kind of Asian food... it’s almost scary. But the menu has pictures so I guess that’s cool. Sake cups are very generous.
If you have room for dessert and don't like chocolate go for the pear tart.
Try the avocado mashed potatoes w/ sea scallops GREATEST FOOD EVER!!!
Warm and inviting service. Get the ribeye.
Save room for the fresh canolli. They're divine.
Burrata & octopus apps, Branzino market fish of day with fregola $22. No cover for live jazz.
Beautiful and cozy wine bar... They've managed to keep quality in wines and food over the years. I've been coming here for 10 years and feel at home each time I'm here. And it's very romantic too! 😉
OMG tiramisu <3
Sardinian crispy bread (any and all options) Wild Boar over polenta. Great wine options. Super cozy, great date spot, rely authentic place. Just go.
Great inexpensive brunch, decent dinner service -- in the summer, the back patio is lovely!
Brunch is $11.95 and all you can drink Mimosas, get the Huevos Al Chilorio (spicy pork and cactus) you can't beat it.
Best brunch. Delicious and cheap. Their guacamole is heavenly.
A chill, all day cafe and bar, Greenpoint's Achilles Heel has a real neighborhood feeling, offers delicious small plates, and an ambitious coffee program with selections from different roasters. Read more.
Good god - they serve the best oysters I've had in my life.
A chill neighborhood bar, Achilles Heel is run by the same group as Marlow & Sons and as such, has a quality daytime coffee program, also featuring George Howell. No food and not a work space. Read more.
Yummy brunch spot. Breakfast nachos are #1
I highly recommend going double porky: start with the pork belly tacos (homemade tortillas + guacamole are slamming) and end with the Heritage pork. Oink!
try any item on the menu that includes homemade tortillas.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
