This place is really nice inside. Really nice vibe, there’s an upstairs with an outdoor patio that’s a vibe in and of itself. The aesthetic of this place is just really chill. I’d say this place is perfect for parties and I can totally see myself coming back here. Didn’t seem like food was a thing here but they’re okay with you bringing food in from outside. Not particularly fond of the cash bar only set up nor the conveniently placed ATM machine with the $3.25 service fee but those were really

Great place that I definitely can recommend! I got their palomita (cortado with slightly more milk, but less to be a flat white?) which was perfect. Great barista skills. For pastries I got their matcha danish which was SO GOOD! I brought it with me to Denmark and even after my flight it was crispy, soft center and flavor was exceptional. Will be getting it again! You can also taste they use a good amount of- and good quality matcha. (: Unfortunately the downside of their pastries were the black

Why the Greenpoint Starbucks on Nassau and Lorimer Falls Short I’ve visited the Starbucks location at Nassau and Lorimer in Greenpoint multiple times, and despite having documented transactions through the Starbucks app, my experiences there have consistently left me disappointed. What stands out most is not a single incident, but a pattern—one that suggests a lack of awareness, attentiveness, and basic customer acknowledgment. I work for the city and also do independent journalism in New York

We love this place! I enjoy the various flavors available that continuously change. The permanent flavors are great too! Never too much of a wait, and be sure to try flavors that seem interesting. My wife is vegan/gluten free mostly, and had plenty of options so I’d say vegan friendly for sure. We usually bring a cooler bag and ice packs and walk down to a park or to our apt to eat. Ice cream is top notch, definitely worth a visit!

Casual restaurant prepping rice bowls topped with meat, eggplant or tofu, plus noodles & bubble tea.
The mapo tofu was outstanding, packed with flavor and just the right amount of heat. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and excellent food. We tried a few different dishes and everything was well executed and full of flavor. One of those places that lives up to the reviews and is easy to recommend.

Longtime pizzeria offering counter service for slices & a no-frills dining room for Italian plates.
We tried a little bit of everything and every single dish blew us away. The pizza had the perfect balance — light, crispy, and beautifully charred, with toppings that tasted incredibly fresh. The antipasto board was generous and packed with flavor, and the croquettes were golden, creamy, and addictive. Our pasta was cooked perfectly and tasted like true homemade Italian comfort — rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. And the tiramisu… honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. On top of al

Super delicious, all the dishes were so good!! Keep in mind, we didn’t wait for a table or have a reservation so I didn’t have expectations. Highlights for me were the seafood, burger and steak frites. DO NOT SLEEP ON DESSERT, the chocolate budino was absolutely to die for. Overall, very good ingredients, dishes and a fun vibe.

Had such a great experience here! I ordered the strawberry matcha and it was absolutely delicious honestly one of the best I’ve had. The coffee shop itself has a really welcoming atmosphere, but what made my visit even better was Esma. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made me feel genuinely welcome from the moment I walked in. Great drinks, great service, and a great vibe. I’ll definitely be coming back!

It is a pleasant atmosphere and the staff makes me feel welcomed. The food and coffee is excellent. The management have contributed to and supported events in the community. They are welcoming to customers that I have witnessed and allow patrons to stay and work at tables. I go here often and have always had a positive experience.

We were trying to get oysters but they were out and we wanted to die 😭. But we got their chicken sandwich and micheladas! Oh yea, we also got buffalo wings. The patio seating is very cute and cozy, nice people watching. Service was kinda slow tho, took a minute for them to collect our cc to pay lol. But their micheladas were so good, we would come back for that alone. 🙂

I had a really great experience at this place and was impressed with both the food and the overall vibe. The noodles were absolutely delicious—rich in flavor and cooked perfectly—and the wonton soup was just as good, warm and comforting with great taste. Everything felt fresh and well-prepared, and you can tell they put care into their dishes. The atmosphere was cozy and had a fun, nostalgic feel with the music playing, which made the whole visit even more enjoyable. The owners were super kind a

My favorite dive bar in the city or boroughs by far. Perfect atmosphere with good music and pinball. Phenomenal deals on happy hour or just all day with great cocktails on tap. The perfect spot for a beer and a shot. Their frozen cocktails during the spring and summer are especially great! With the best long island iced tea I have ever had a great lemonade and you can mix the two into a john daily.

What a truly remarkable experience. The food is lovely, so clean, healthy, yummy. Bersi herself is such a kind person who not only cooks the food but helps out in the front of the restaurant as well. It’s rare to see such a genuine restaurant in an industry dominated by restaurant groups with no soul. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great flavorful food in Greenpoint.

Love this place. I brought my longtime online friend here for drinks before a show, and he said, “OMG, this looks exactly like the kind of place you’d take me for our first meeting.” A few minutes later, I asked if the bartender was too busy to make me a margarita, and he shot back, “Do I look like someone who isn’t capable of making a marg?” iconic. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ 5 stars — will definitely be back

Takeout lunch special. A simple meal chicken wings with pork fried rice. The pork fried rice taste like it had some type of aftertaste like chemical or something the rice also taste stale just sitting there in the pot from the day before it was clumpy and the chicken wings itself was very salty, which means they did not change the oil recently.

Bakery known for sweet & savory pies made with locally sourced ingredients, plus classes.
Pie Corps is a wonderful part of our neighborhood. 100% the best cup of coffee in the hood for sure and thankfully open early! I love grabbing a coffee on the way to the dog run with my pup and a couple of the best croissants I've ever had in NYC on the way back home. The Hand Pies are top notch - either hot to go or taken home to be re-heated later. There's a constant attention to quality - both in terms of the quality of the food but also the quality of service and being a part of the communit

We had an incredible time at the Hana Makgeolli x Jilli popup and I’m still thinking about it! The yakju was exceptionally clean and smooth. I was also very impressed with Hana Soju 20 and 60. Although the alcohol content was high, it went down so smooth and was easy to drink. Let’s just say they came home with me cuz they were so good😂 If you like sweeter taste, Sagwaju (fermented with apple) is a must try. If you want something authentic and new, try MAQ8 Silkysonic and the MAQ8 Bubblocitea!

My boyfriend and I got in our first fight because I took the last bite of the curry tuna belly without offering it to him (I’m not kidding, it was that good). AND the bartender noticed that we got in a tiff and gave us free cheesecake. 11/10 I love it here.

Quiet, cozy and unassuming bar. Not much on the food menu however cocktails are all on point. This is located away from hustle and bustle spots near McCarran Park so if you just wanna chill with friends with quiet environment, then this is your place. Outdoor area available when weather permits. Very clean and staff is always pleasant.

I went there and ordered a mushroom pizza and a BBQ chicken pizza. The way the staff talked to me was really rude. I understand they work hard, but customer service is important too. They gave me my pizza in about 2–4 minutes, which felt too fast. When I got home, the pizza was cold and the chicken smelled really bad. Honestly, I couldn’t even eat it. I have been here before and the pizza was usually okay, but this time the experience was really disappointing. I don’t know what went wrong, but

Special shoutout to Maddi for giving us THEE best service. Super attentive to the emptiness of our glasss. Haha. The food came out right on time & Maddi was eager to ask for feedback. The atmosphere gives boat/nautical energy. Something was up with the air, it was super warm but bearable since we were so hungry. The KALE SALAD, absolutely delicious. Get that. The lobster Mac was ok, a little too watery for my taste but still flavorful. My homegirl devoured the scallop chowder. The burger was jui

genuinely my favorite smoothie shop in Brooklyn! You can customize any smoothie, but I am obsessed with their chocolate banana protein shake, it’s been a ritual of mine to work out and then come here for fuel! Not just that, but the service and the owners are the sweetest people I’ve ever met. They always give me a free piece of fruit before my smoothie is ready, 100000/10!!!

It was a very wonderful experience. The restaurant atmosphere is spot on, large with high ceilings, nice decor and comfortable seats. The service is wonderful though I did have a little bit of trouble understanding the explanation of the dishes (but the online menu tells you everything you need to know). The dishes tasted much better in the beginning than towards the end. The veal dish was not very tender. And their duck pie fell a little short on flavor. But very nice touch at the end moving to

I’ve ordered from this shop multiple times before and have never had an issue, which is why this experience was so surprising. There seemed to be a glitch with the lunch special — it showed as confirmed on my end, but on their system it only showed a soda. At the start, we both acknowledged there was a discrepancy in the totals, and I offered to simply pay the difference to get the full order, thinking it would be an easy fix. Instead, the situation escalated quickly. I was repeatedly accused

Ordered the tuna poke, soupy rice with salmon, iced lemonade green tea, and an egg sandwich. All simple, clean, and flavorful. You wait in line and she will make the food by each order. The food comes out fairly quickly. I read a sign in there that said the cafe will close early if they’ve sold out.

Wow! What a great find and I wish the owner much success! It’s a non-traditional Japanese inspired tasting course for a little over $100 The menu is seasonal and features everything from land to sea. Each of the two seatings is around 75 mins but even 1.5hr was not enough to just enjoy; the pacing was a tad fast, especially towards the end. Seating is also very different, in a U shape, so it does give a communal feeling and you can always watch the chefs in the open kitchen. Love the concept a

Small, brick-walled cafe offering a diverse mix of sandwiches for breakfast & lunch plus coffee.
This is a great little café with indoor & outdoor seating. They are famous for amazing espresso drinks (lattes sooo good), I also love their matcha. Delicious sandwiches~ my go-to is the Kwason (croissant, egg, goat cheese). I usually substitute bread with a 7 grain, but this morning I got their standard croissant… you can see the amazing quality here! They have great chocolate chip cookies, other pastries, & I just tried for the first time a chia / oat snack cookie~ great with tea!

Simple pub grub & cocktails served in an old-timey setting with wood beams & stained-glass windows.
Very bad service and questionably racist bartenders. Venue felt completely tone-deaf to the community they were in. Bartenders took the order of my partner that is Mexican while serving all other white patrons and conveniently “forgot” what he ordered five times until I, a white woman came and stood next to him. What shameful behavior for Brooklyn New York.

Stopped in at Dashi Okume on a random Saturday afternoon and sat down with a spread of white rice, bluefish, miso soup, squash, and mushroom. Simple and satisfying on the food front, for the 2 of us, the cost was about $110. So not a cheap meal, but good food. The vibe though was a little different from what I was expecting. I went in thinking restaurant and what I got was more of a market atmosphere. While you are eating, people are walking around shopping and browsing, and there are products

This place is what affordable chinese takeout should be, and they do the classics extremely well. I accept that any improvements to the atmosphere, service, etc. would impact the prices, and that's just not what this restaurant should be. You can walk into this place with a $10 bill and have a delicious half fried chicken dinner. You can walk into this place with a 20 and REALLY indulge yourself. You can walk into this place with a 50 and legitimately feed a family of 4. So when I see one star

I'm afraid this is by far the worst meal that we've ever gotten from Sweetgreen. We've ordered from Sweetgreen many times before but this was our first time ordering from this particular location. We got two steak bowls and they each had NINE exact pieces of overcooked, dried up steak. My steak bowl with hummus literally looks like a bowl of rice. We ended up not eating them and ordering something else. We also requested a refund but they hit us with a "20 dollar store credit" for BOTH bowls. Co

First of all the owner was there making sure everyone was taken care of, was so sweet and was even so kind as to give me an amazing recommendation for the burrata pesto slice that was incredible. I also followed them on insta for a free garlic knot. The potato pancetta slice was probably my favorite out of everything I tried but every single slice yo
