Food Scene

Coffee shop by day and bar by night, this is a really great spot. The shrimp tacos are really good, so is the coffee. Great for working or meetings in the day.

Really good brunch in a rustic atmosphere. All of the dishes are really good...but I personally love the croque madame. They also do brunch a bit later than other places on the weekend - I think til 6pm.

One of our fave Thai spots in the area. The tiger steak app is sooo yummy and all of their curries are pretty fantastic. I'm a fan of the masaman and the spicy thai fried rice.

Southern style restaurant. The brunch here is very good and hearty so come with an appetite! Big fan of the meatloaf sandwich...it's huge though so recommend sharing. Country fried steak is also good. The bloody bull (their bloody mary version) is also a big hit.

The restaurant of the moment! Being written about everywhere. Good Italian food. Feels more like a Manhattan restaurant in Williamsburg but that's the way the neighborhood is changing. Food is very good - on the more expensive side. Make a reservation well in advance!
