Intimate watering hole with quirky art on the walls & an extensive by-the-glass & bottle selection.
Pinkerton Wine Bar had a strange subconscious calling for me when I visited last Saturday, as I realized I had been there a few years back, despite usually being very aware of places I have previously visited. The vibe is great. It is woodsy, and I loved the small details, such as the ship on what appeared to be a wine closet. The atmosphere is dark and intimate, but because it is quite popular, it is not the most quiet place. However, I had no trouble talking with my friend or the bartenders.

Lulla’s in Williamsburg is quietly becoming one of the most compelling Venezuelan bakery and brunch experiences in New York. There is a clear intention here: to reinterpret the high-end bakery culture of Caracas through a contemporary Brooklyn lens, and it works more often than not. You walk into a space that balances warmth and design with surprising precision. The room feels intentional, never overcrowded, with a rhythm that shifts between coffee service and full brunch energy. The presence o

Great bar for pinball and drinks. Many modern Stern and older machines. I only played newer Stern, all were in very good condition. Pinball sounds are configured pretty loud (you can decide if you like this or not). Good drink options and fair prices. The bar looks a bit run-down from the outside, but the inside is great.

Signature & made-to-order poke bowls doled out in a modern-rustic space with counter service.
Flavor of the food here tasted excellent actually. I believe it’s because it might’ve been “fresh”. Although you can’t exactly see what’s going on in the back it tasted really good to be honest. I immediately shared with might wife that this place was definitely in future options to come eat at again. Clean rated A establishment. Well done!

Excellent food at this “hole in the wall”. There is nothing fancy here BUT the food is excellent and everyone who works here is lovely. These are some of the best quesadillas in the city. If you are in the area you need to check them out. You can not go wrong.

Top tier quality pasta: flavors were 10 / 10 and ingredients were fresh (they make all pastas in house). I really enjoyed the linguine ramp. My only gripe here is that portions are small and I would’ve preferred my ravioli pasta to be warmer than was served. Drinks were strong and the martini here was impec. The ricotta cheesecake was also very delicious but a little heavy for my taste. Space was cute, it was giving bistro vibes & backyard looked beautiful. Service was kind — our waiters were su

Balkan Grind delivers great coffee and treats. I highly recommend having the hazelnut Turkish coffee. The bureks are on point as well and it's a great portion for a light filling meal. Val, the owner, is hospitable and energetic and a pleasure to speak with. He clearly works hard to provide quality coffee and treats. The vibe in there is great and will instantly make you feel calm. Great spot for meetings as well. A+ products, service and ambiance.

One of the hidden gems in Brooklyn coffee shops. The secret here is the super chill vibes. It’s quiet enough to read or do work. The couches and sofas are super comfortable and seemingly always free. Can’t wait to return to try more of their pastries and coffee selections.

Casual brickwork Latin café serving wraps, soups & salads washed down with juices & smoothies.
Solid option for a quick bite. Made to order and comes out quick. Super friendly and welcoming! Reasonable prices too. The Ecuadorian roasted pork sandwich is nice, the pork has rich flavor. Fried plantains are alright. I need to go back to try their breakfast! Ice cold lemonade with the Cubano hits the spot.

A French bistrot that has made itself a community institution, Bistrot So occupies a fantastic corner, there is almost no better place to take in the neighborhood while enjoying a meal, anytime of year. The menu classics like the steak au poivre will keep you coming back, and still there are always seasonal specials: beef bourguignon, raclette, duck. The staff is beloved by the neighborhood, so between the atmosphere and food, be prepared to enjoy yourself.

I really would give Mo’s a 10/10, but the final verdict is 9/10…… AMAZING PIZZA. Like out of this world! If Mo’s made classic NYC style pies rather than square deep dish pizzas then they would have a 2hour line out the door. THANKFULLY, the wait isn’t bad. BUT, we had a slight hiccup by accidentally auto-tipping $20 - watch out for that. The Food: rich, fresh, and deep dough that is crispy on the bottom while maintaining softness in the middle.

Dimly lit saloon with an extensive whiskey & beer list, plus grub that includes occasional BBQ.
Stumbled in running from an insane down pour. Bad weather brought us here. Overall, it's a great place. Staff are friendly and attentive. Large selection of scotch and fairly priced drinks for the location. Feels like your typical bar. It's clean, has good patrons, and has a large space to sit. There is an outdoor setup where Ecuadorian food can be purchased. Decent and unusual bar food.

The food is on point !!! Julio was our server and bartender and he is the best !! Highly recommend the chupe de camarones ! Woooow ! The shrimp tacos were insane every part to the tortilla was perfectly cooked. And last but not least the leche de Tigre ( that came in a glass fish bowl was fire 🔥 . $6 happy hour margaritas was the sign we saw on the corner that got us in the door , perfect promotion from the corner to mid block , well played !!

This modern Thai/Thai fusion spot in Williamsburg is a good spot for a date night. The interior is intimate, and cozy. Service here is good. I came here for a group dinner with three friends and we ordered their steak tartare, lamb shank, and branzino (they have a fairly small menu). Everything was pretty solid. I enjoyed their steak tartare and thought that it was really unique that they paired the dish with fried tripe. Notes of lemongrass and other spices were really strong, reminding me of

Sooooo hot !! The AC is turned off, and there’s only a little fan circling around the Pizza guy as he works. The pizza looked so old and bad, the entire pizzeria is dirty, trash was on the floors, tables were covered in grease and pizza residue, the spot is called “Little Italy” but is blasting Arabic music, this entire establishment had such a weird atmosphere, that makes you feel uncomfortable sitting at the dirty tables.

I was delighted to see for dessert they had lava cake WITH LUCUMA ice cream. As a Peruvian, if a place has lucuma...you must get the lucuma!

Great cafe across from the Brooklyn Pod on Metropolitan. There is inside seating and plenty of sidewalk tables. This cafe is a vegan delight with lots of fresh vegetable dishes. They also have burgers and chicken dishes. I had a burger with fresh sweet potatoes with sour cream. The burger was perfectly cooked with fresh mushrooms. Prices are very reasonable. The service is outstanding and the manager, Kevin is extremely friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this cafe that also has

Celebrated local sushi chain serving traditional rolls & sake in a chic, intimate space.
Delicious sushi at a very high quality. Small portions and not filling, steep pricing too. Small dining area so requires some waiting but the staff are welcoming, informative, and tipping is already included in the price. The only reason why it's not a 5* in my opinion, is because it's a nice experience for a one time thing - to treat yourself and your company. But I find it hard to justify coming back for a meal for the price and satiety. Yes the fish is high quality and DELICIOUS, but past tha

Rustic haunt for sourdough pizza with cocktails, beer & wine plus happy hour deals & brunch.
Loved my meal here last week. They have real deal homemade Italian food from the burrata to the pizza and pastas. Great spot for your next Italian date night or even a nice little event in their beautiful space I can see a nice work party or maybe a birthday party here, they have the best local prices for events with full bar and food options. highly recommend getting those oysters and their Tre Pizzette appetizers, must try the penne a la vodka as well for sure

This is an amazing Thai restaurant. Shrimp basil egglant with brown rice has wonderful flavor, and the perfect level of spicicness. The staff is kind and the interior is warm and welcoming, fast service. Definitely give a this place a try if you are in the mood for Thai or just desert and Thai ice tea.

I stopped by Garden Carver after walking from Manhattan to Brooklyn via the Williamsburg Bridge. The restaurant had a quirky charm with its literal middle-of-garden look. The inside was welcoming and felt like a real hole-in-the-wall spot to find something unique. I ordered the Grilled Chick’n Caesar Wrap and mango & calamansi kombucha (that kombucha blend gives off real Brooklyn vibes lol). The wrap was pretty good! It had a good balance of what I believe was fried tempeh, lettuce, and dressi

We had sushi, yuca mash, chicken bites and fried fish tacos, everything was good no complaints. I’d def come back again. 🤭🔥

Love the selection of veg empanadas. Wish they had a sweet plantain option! We got one of each of the veg options and they were very tasty, especially with the green mayo. Ordering was easy with staff there and quick service. It wasn’t too busy on a late Saturday afternoon before the dinner rush. Some seating inside. They’re really heavy with oil (only a couple that are baked) from deep frying so that was a lot for my stomach but overall nice flavors.

I had a great experience thanks to Jahid at Sonic. They had an amazing $6 deal that included a burger, fries, and a drink, and honestly, everything exceeded my expectations. The taste was on point, the quality was there, and the food was served at the perfect temperature. I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical about the area at first, but the food completely won me over—I even came back the very next day. Jahid really stood out during my visits.

Sometimes it’s about the experience. We were served by Cianna last night, who was absolutely delightful. She clearly enjoys her job and interacting with customers - even on the late shift when she appeared to be completely solo. Cianna was so fun, FUNNY, and personable - and the cookies were great, as expected. Keep doing a great job, girl! I hope Chip City knows this employee is a true gem.

Homey spot with a full menu of Italian classics, plus a variety of hero sandwiches for lunch.
The food is truly authentic Italian, fresh, and delicious; I loved it. I was tired of visiting places and always finding the same thing. This place has its own special touch. Different but at the same time very original. The atmosphere is super pleasant, and the service is 20/10—super friendly. I’ll be back soon 🫶🏽❤️

Showed up at Ciao Ciao on a rainy Sunday afternoon with a group of friends and had a fantastic time. The vibe was great from the moment we walked in, and the music set the tone perfectly. We got there a little early, which made it fun to watch the room fill up and the energy build as the day went on. Bartenders were excellent and the service was on point throughout. Drinks were really well done. Adding this one to our regular rotation whenever we’re in New York.

Talk about a place with a vibe! This place will transport you to another world and culture and still feel like NYC. No matter if you’re eating inside or in the heated outside backyard. The food is exceptional and the home made Persian bread is an item I could come back for again and again. The olives and Tahchin as well!

Everyone at Crystal Lake was super cool and totally on top of it. I happened to come on a “survivor night” while there was a busy crowd in the back having a survivor watch party. The vibe was good and the bartenders even better. My wife doesn’t really like the taste of alcohol and the bartender christine made great recommendations for her. Her new favorite drink is a pear gimlet. No matter how busy it was the bartenders still had time to be personable. There’s a really cute big event space in

I have never been so disrespected at a cafe in my life.

So unprofessional. Very expensive I understand it is a small business but you won’t get business with rudeness.

Chill, stylish shop selling espresso drinks as well as custom motorcycles & gear.
I’m not entirely sure what I expected walking into this place, but they surpassed any expectation. Latte was delicious at a reasonable price, their clothes are obviously high quality with great design, and the atmosphere was everything. After spending the past two years without access to my motorcycle, it was a breath of fresh air to sit on that couch nestled between two amazing bikes. This is every biker’s happy space.

Although the atmosphere and vibes here are amazing…the service was pretty ok/good but the food was absolutely horrible, poor quality, and not fresh. I do not recommend eating their food here. It is crazy because I came here with my mother when she was visiting me in town about 1 year ago and we had a really great experience here and I do not remember ever the food being bad. But I went back last night 4/29/26 with my bf and as soon as we left the restaurant, unfortunately we both had really ups

We stumbled on this spot back in 2019 and instantly loved it—small, unpretentious, and serving great cocktails with a genuinely welcoming cozy vibe. Almost six years later, we came back and the owner remembered us. That says everything. If you want a relaxed spot with excellent drinks (plus a few solid nonalcoholic options), this is it.
