Lunch at Walter is good. Dinner at Walter is good. Everything at Walter is good. If you're bored, Reuben and Matthew will stir your night up with delicious drinks.
Best brunch in Williamsburg/Greenpoint. Recommendations: Sage Scramble Sandwich, BLAT, Truffle Fries, Big Brekkie, Bloody Mary, ok anything and everything. The host Granville RULES THE PLANET
Go to the back garden. Sit down. Pig out on a troft of Mac & Cheese, wrestle a cow and destroy a burger, or eat fish. Wash it all down with Barcade, just a block and a half away.
Go with a friend - one of you order the meatloaf sandwich, and the other get the braised shortrib sandwich. Cut each in half and share. Yum! Get a side of mac 'n cheese to share as well...
Williamsburg's most consistently excellent restaurant. Stick to the specials and order the soup, whatever it is, you won't be sorry.
Greenpoint gem. So good, great date spot. Worth the wait to sit in the garden if it's nice out. I usually never order chicken at restaurants, I did and it was fantastic.
Go to Vinegar Hill House and be happy that you stayed in Brooklyn. They will be nice to you even if you are the only person in the place not wearing plaid. Also, there is a fireplace.
Wilkinsons are where a pancake meets a beignet. Aka, Delicioustown, population you. And if you're super lucky, Zach Galifinakis might just be sitting at the table next to you.
There's always an interesting and flavorful tofu treatment on the menu. Great for vegetarians and carnivores alike.
Venture to Fort Greene to see what NY Mag has been raving about. Order the ham and gruyere bread pudding! (ps: BAM is within walking distance if you want to catch a movie)
Everything's great here, but they really shine when it comes to bar snacks. Locally sourced charcuterie, veggie finger food and more. Great cocktails and a good beer list, too. Also brunch is amazing.
Go early for brunch and have the hangtown fry - fried oysters w/eggs! Sounds odd but is delish + they run out of it all the time.
A popular brunch item is the two-eggs any style, made with farm-fresh eggs, house-made marmalade and locally sourced bacon or sausage Read more.
There’s a hippy, trippy kind of rough-hewn beauty to this Williamsburg outpost. The warm, rustic lodge aesthetic matches the inventive dishes on the constantly changing menu.
You know how good that sausage, egg, and cheese from McDonald's is, but how bad you feel after eating it? Get all the goodness (and more) without the remorse after with Reynard's breakfast sandwich.
Taste: For Brunch - House made Parsnip Yogurt, muesli, bananas and persimmons...Warm Irish soda bread with creamy cultured butter, served at every table Read more.
The monkish dish is amazing. Also, the ornate iron/word decor is lovely and take a close look at the design to find little animals and men hidden within the carvings. Great dinner.
Easily the best restaurant in the neighborhood right now. Get the hanger steak and truffle mash potatoes.
You can't go wrong here. Favorite new spot. The steak, duck rillette crostini, deep fried brussell sprouts and bacon, pork belly and pickled radish and Cool Hand Cuke cocktail were all amazing. Do it.
Two words: Eggs Huntington. My favorite take on a hollandaise sauce. Love their vegetarian options for dinner as well.
Finally, sandwiches in NYC that are worth the money. I'd recommend the Breakfast Sandwich with bacon or the Macho Man (if you're feeling a bit hungrier). Don't forget to tip these awesome people!
Don't miss the cavatelli dish. Pair it with the octopus or fennel and parsley salad and you have yourself an awesome dinner. If you find yourself here for brunch, go with the BLT or go splitty splitty
Get the Taleggio, Broccoli Rabe & Sausage Panini-ciabatta panini, pressed w/ earthy taleggio & sautéed mushrooms; broccoli rabe heated w/ garlic & a few stray chile flakes & fennel-seed-spiked sausage
A magical restaurant tucked away in a fairytale setting. The cocktails, wine & negronis exceed expectations. Quiet enough to actually heard your date or friends talk.
Get here early to avoid a long wait for a table, no reservations! Start with the Trippa Alla Toscana, move on to the Tortelli Di Zucca Burro E Salvia, then the Braised Rabbit and finish with gelato.
Solid italian spot as expected from the a di la folks. One of those places where everything on the menu looks great. Had the farro salad and the pork chop and both were great. Will be back for more.
Seven words: white chocolate and sweet pea creme brulee. Plus 11 bucks gets you a great burger with fries, a small salad and a beer at Alchemy. – Adam Richman, Man v. Food Read more.
Really nice and quiet place for lunch. Cocktails here are mind-blowingly good. The cheeseburger and chicken salad sandwich are both great - but the kicker is the fries - which are deliciously salty.
If they have the blood orange doughnuts, go for it, no questions asked. I wish I could say the same for the Earl Gray one, not at all what I wanted it to be.
Don't leave without trying a grilled cheese from the Milk Truck and savoring a barbecue pork banh mi from BEP. We also love the Blue Marble Ice Cream and grilled hot dogs from the Meat Hook.
Our gold standard for fried chicken in the city. Get the box and thank the fried chicken gods for blessing us with Pies N Thighs. Read more.
Egg makes one of the best biscuits I've had north of the Mason Dixon. My grandmother's ham biscuits are hard to beat, but the biscuits and ham here are pretty darn good.
Serious southern cooking here. If you're not getting the meatloaf sandwich then stop by for the fried chicken dinner served every Sun and Mon. Hopefully lives up to their old brunch recipe (pictured.) Read more.
One of the most unique and delicious menus in all of New York City. If you love pork, come here. Get the short rib sliders and finish with an order of the strange yet tasty bacon doughnuts.
With a kitchen turning out impeccably smoked meats and more than 150 bottles of whiskey behind the bar, we recommend the delicious Pork Nuggets and Shrimp & Grits.
This is what needs to happen, so listen up...Mermaid Cove oysters to Roasted Beef Bone Marrow to Herb & Wild Mushroom Spatzle to Pork Schnitzel. Don't make me tell you twice.
Try "ever-so-slightly spicy pork meatballs that melt away under a cloud of Parmesan cream sauce, helping temper the heat. Dip the accompanying focaccia liberally into the bowl." Read more.
It’s hard to go wrong with anything on Diner’s concise, oft-changing menu but of course the burger is popular as ever at lunch. - Inspector
Artisanal breads and pastries worthy of Paris - and Portland, Ore., where the talented baker Zachary Golper learned his trade. They use a traditional approach to bread making...small batch mixing Read more.
There's a reason you see a lot of chicken sandwiches go by. Follow that instinct. And for something different, the PLT. You just need to try it.
Super cute café service smooth coffee and you must get the BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado & tomato). Grab a table outside and enjoy the flowers.
Try the almond croissant! Whether it's studio-wide treats on Fridays or the spread at Creative Mornings, the croissants here are delicious. We've also been known to pick up a few cakes for birthdays.
James has a lot of local ingredients but doesn't advertise it quite as prominently as some places in the neighborhood. Romantic atmosphere.
Savor: Crostini; pizza..As its ingredients depend on locally-grown harvests,franny's changes their menus daily..Try the unadorned pie (extra-virgin olive oil and sea salt); it's a classic of its kind Read more.
Every pie we had was excellent! Get a group of people to go and try all the pizzas Read more.
