Been here several times and you will not regret ordering the Black Manhattan cocktail, short rib, cauliflower or cheese cake. Open kitchen makes it fun to sit at the bar & watch the chefs in action.

The tagliatelle al ragu is very good. It's both saucy and cheesy, but not exceedingly so. And they have Peroni, which is always a plus at any pasta spot.

The farro salad is the quintessential summer salad. The corn tortelli is amazing... But the pork chop blew our minds. James was excellent; offered solid recommendations and was super attentive.

Big outdoor space, much of it covered. At brunch, order savory mains and the ricotta fritters with jam to share. Sweet vs. savory problem solved!

Solid italian spot as expected from the a di la folks. One of those places where everything on the menu looks great. Had the farro salad and the pork chop and both were great. Will be back for more.

Get a table outside and order an aperol spritz to start (if it's the summertime.) If you can't decide on a pasta, the tagliatelle al ragu is a great bet.

late night dinner. had roasted amish chicken. not bad. mac n cheese was very good. if feeling adventurous have the crispy beef tongue fries. worth a revisit

Some of the best bacon I've ever had. The polenta and mushrooms for brunch is great, as is the pork belly hash. And the staff - soooo sweet. Great brunch!

Affordably priced Italian from the team behind neighborhood favorite al di la. Pasta is great here, and there's a nice outdoor dining space.

Great Italian food from the Al Di La people. The squid ink pasta is a reliable favorite. Cocktails are good too.
Di LucieJune 22, 2014
The hake... What can I say.... A veritable feast. A pork roast of a fish bake. Delicious broth, perfectly accompanied by olives and roasted tomatoes. A coup. Bravo.

chitarra neri (squid ink pasta) and ricotta cavatelli are my staples, plus any seasonal salad. always fresh and always good. great wines and cocktails too.

The Aperol Spritz ($9), made of a bitter orange liquor, prosecco and a splash of citrus, brings to mind bocce games in shirt sleeves on a summer afternoon in the Riviera. Read more

Everything I ate here was outstanding. Malfatti, beets and goat cheese, fresh young chicken, farro salad. Cocktails also quite nice.
Danilo LimaJune 27, 2016
Had the Eggs Benedict for Brunch and they were awesome. Served with the best Pork Belly ever, I'll definitely come back.

Place used to be amazing but brunch today was a fail. There were just two snap peas and two chunks of cheese in my farro salad. smoky paprika potatoes were the star of brunch - now pulled from menu.

Amazing brunch and great atmosphere. Eggs panade is the way to go.
Nick BurtoSeptember 6, 2015
Get there before 6 for a pick of the best backyard seats.
DevontaJuly 20, 2014
The food was decent. The Mac N Cheese was nice but not amazing. Not sure if I would go back but it was a good place to try. Great homemade ginger soda and nice vibe.

Splitty-splitty on the Malfati and the Ricotta Cavatelli. Al di la food without the massive wait. Plus, a really nice outdoor area.
Lauren DellaquilaSeptember 1, 2015
Operated by the same people who run Al Di La in Park Slope. Anything they pair with creamy polenta is worth trying.
michael donohoeApril 6, 2014
Try to pounce on a seat at the bar. Order a cocktail, the 'tongue' fries, and enjoy excellent service
Zach AaronsFebruary 21, 2012
Very solid traditional Italian food in a chic rustic setting. Definitely good for the Prospect Heights culinary scene. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Start with the kale salad. End with the caramel coffee custard. Both amazing.
Julia DennisonNovember 2, 2014
Mushroom and goat cheese cavatelli. Every time I go I think I'll order something else but I always give in to this wonder of a dish. Nom!
Allie SchwartzJanuary 30, 2012
Farro salad is to die for. Veal is fantastic as are the spicy chick peas and the Taglietalle. Terrific addition to Washington Ave.
Analee KasudiaMay 25, 2015
Get the cauliflower dish, ricotta cavatelli and panna cotta. Rosé all the way.
Adam S.February 13, 2012
The farro salad is excellent. Prices across the board are reasonable and a couple can easily (and happily) munch for under $70.
Chris KimMarch 23, 2013
Cauliflower steak to start, squid ink pasta for your main, and tongue fries instead of dessert. Thank me later.
Alison ZackFebruary 27, 2013
The ricotta cavatelli and the braised short rib are amazing. I also love the kale salad appetizer.

Delicious food that's seasonal and well priced. Plus the wine prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended.

Everything is good! Great wine bottles at $29 each. Kale, brussel sprouts, fish, special pastas all rock
CompassAugust 12, 2013
Fresh cocktails, handmade pastas, and farm table ambiance inspired by the Italian countryside.
MimiFebruary 12, 2012
Musts: Farro salad, spicy chickpeas, tagliatelle (exactly like the one at Al Di La). Skip the veal breast -- nauseatingly fatty.
Nick BurtoSeptember 6, 2015
That Limoncello is legit. It's strong though, might want to split one.
kat popielJune 26, 2015
Our food took an hour to come, an absolute no no in NYC when someone else can make it faster & better. Also saw them keeping their French toast moist on the grill, um don't order this!

The owners of Park Slope's much-loved Al Di Là Trattoria opened this lower-priced northern Italian restaurant in Crown Heights on Thursday. Read more

Fried chickpeas, and if the special involved a ragu, go for it.
Omar BrownAugust 24, 2015
Everything is amazing. The pasta is out of control. Original and good
Erika SJanuary 2, 2015
Love the food, love the energy here. Skip waiting at Tooker Alley - terrible service, expensive drinks from premix syrups destroy the vibe you want when going to Corvo!

Fave brunch is the polenta with mushrooms, kale, and a cute egg topper.
Elaine DunlapMay 18, 2016
The food is so good! The staff hated us so much for showing up at 9:30 on a Tuesday 🙁
Erica CarterSeptember 12, 2016
Great HH and oysters! Quaint, cute, and yummy.
Thad CollinsNovember 3, 2012
The chicken dish and the Mac & cheese dish were SUPERB!! The Montepuciano was great too!!!

Don't look down on the Cauliflower appetizer! The fried capers on this add the perfect touch.
Marc MayerAugust 27, 2015
Polenta so creamy you could eat a gallon of it. I dare you.
Pam B.February 21, 2012
Tagliatelle al ragu is everything you want out of a pasta dish: cheesy, funky, meaty. The octupus confit pasta was a little too lemony—I would skip.
Nikita ShettyJune 24, 2013
Learn from my mistake and use the top lock on the bathroom door. Also, the wild mushroom cavatelli is delicious.
mike greenApril 27, 2013
just like al di la, the pasta here is terrific. the tagliatelle was lights out.
FianaDecember 27, 2013
I can't get enough of this place. The ricotta cavatelli is delish!
