Great neighborhood restaurant with a solid wine list and cocktail program. The soppressata pizza with hot honey is one of the best pies in Brooklyn. The kale salad is excellent too.

Whenever I don't know where to go, I go to Glady's. It's chill and cheap and potentially our favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. Simple Caribbean classics in a cool, casual atmosphere. Try the jerk fried wings, or the curry goat with a Dark and Slushy (frozen rum and ginger beer) to wash it all down

This is our favorite restaurant that we've never eaten at. Every time we walk by, we see lots of cute, happy faces - both behind the service counter and from the customer side. The decor is charmingly nautical-themed and decked out with red, white and blue. We've heard the crab is quite tasty. Too bad we're not fans of shellfish!

This sweet little cafe serves Counter Culture Coffee, tasty pastries (many of which are house-made) and Latin-influenced dishes like empanadas.

Technically this restaurant is in Prospect Heights and is truthfully a bit of walk from the apt. BUT the ramen here is the best in NYC. Trust me - I've tried it all (Jin, Ipuddo, Ivan, Toto... & many, many more). These guys are Momofuku alums and they know what they're doing. You'll be tempted to try the Limited Edition Pork Bone, but don't be fooled - the Kimchi Ramen and the Veggie Miso are better. The pork buns are also good.

I know you're stuffed with pork buns and kimchi ramen, but you are not allowed to leave Prospect Heights without a scoop of Ample Hills Creamery ice cream. To be more specific, the Salted Crack Caramel. This ice cream will light up the all the pleasure centers of your brain and has the high potential to turn you into an addict.

Ask many people in the neighborhood where to have brunch, and they'll recommend Chavela's. For that reason, we had to put it here. To be honest, though, the food is not outstanding. Neither are the drinks and the wait on weekends can be several hours. Maybe we're food snobs, but we've been several times and it's always just... fine.

A great cocktail bar with exceptionally friendly service. The bar's decor spans from '30s art deco to '50s postwar chic before culminating in a back lounge complete with vintage '70s wood paneling and a massive portrait of actress and Bond girl Jill St. John. One of the best spots in the neighborhood to grab a well-made cocktail.

The service is sometimes less than warm, but we can't help but love this place. Classic '50s-diner-style lounge with large windows featuring upscale, creative cocktails. There's a pool table that is often available for use!

This unmarked speak-easy style cocktail lounge is where you grab a drink when you're waiting for a table at Chuko across the street. The cocktails are superb and the backyard is a great place to enjoy an evening. Cash only

We probably visit this bodega 3-4 times a week. They have a much bigger and better selection than the 2 bodegas that are a bit closer, including a great beer selection and lots of organic products. We go here anytime I don't want to go all the way to the grocery store and just need one or two small things.
