    a great neighborhood place. if you're making a stop on a hot day, get a French 75 cocktail and sit by the window.

    My new favorite neighborhood spot. The burger with homemade cheese sauce is so good you won't believe it's only 10 bucks.

    Craft drinks go down easier (and tastier) thanks to specialty ice molds, frosted mason jars, and micheladas, Moscow mules, and champagne cocktails mixed with fresh lime, coarse chili salt, and more.

    I came here with a big group and thankfully sampled many of the appetizers and entrees. Verdict: all amazing. Throw in a great selection of drinks, this place rocks.

    This place flies under the radar but it's totally awesome, especially for dinner. The burger is really good and so is the cauliflower salad. Great spot.

    Interesting menu selection and moderately priced. Their soup dumplings were good even if the skin is thicker than I would have liked. I don’t like pancakes, but I like theirs.

    Super cute and cozy spot in Cobble Hill/Red Hook area. Great for a drink at the bar if you're waiting to eat at Pok Pok.

    The Tour is basically the entire brunch menu laid out on a butcher's block. Come hungry.

    The food here has really deteriorated over the years. I keep coming back hoping for a different outcome — so much so that you can find my picture under the dictionary definition of insanity.

    one can't not go to a bar whose name in norwegian means "exchanges" - http://no.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/veksel - as in, the exchange of money for a service. that's today's language-focused tip.

    Great trout sandwich and lobster "rolls". Nice selection of beers on tap. Welcome addition to this side of the hood.

    Terrific brunch. Delicious & reasonably priced - the biscuits are a must. Great espresso, too.

    If they are offering poached eggs with lardo, you should eat two.

    The menu gave us high hopes but the food ended up being just okay. Brussels sprouts were way over cooked and general tso's chicken was also overdone.
