Pizza is the main event at this Brooklyn favorite, but the wings shouldn’t be overlooked. They’re saucy and well spiced; made with gochujang, butter and garlic; and come with a minty ranch dipping sauce to cool things down.

One of Bed-Stuy/Clinton Hill’s most beloved restaurants, Rustik Tavern has welcomed neighbors to enjoy its delicious American fare, friendly service, and an unparalleled cozy atmosphere. Rustik’s fiercely flavorful menu consists of classic comfort dishes with a Rustik flair. I've never had a dish here I didn't like - french fries are to die for!

Filipino food takes a Tex-Mex swerve! The nachos are delicious. They have a very cute out door space in the back and tons of games if you're in a group. On select days they also have breakfast and lunch.

Bombay Heights is a fusion of East Indian cuisine. Great for sit in or take out. I often order on Seamless and pick it up and bring it home. They have a great dinner special with one appetizer and one entree, which is usually enough for two!

Longtime Clinton Hill residents Alicia and Daniel Mekelburg opened their basement-level culinary hideout because quality groceries like high-end cheeses, meats and sandwiches were unavailable in the vicinity. But beyond these front-room delicacies, the back room is where the party is at. With a combination of bar, four-top, and backyard picnic seating, 16 local beers on tap, and surprising small plates like a caviar and crème fraîche baked potato (plus excellent meat and cheese plates, assembled up front), Mekelburg’s is all inspired-hit and no miss.

This German Beer Hall is run, romantically, by a German couple with Black Forest roots. There are lots of sausages, pretzels, fresh, lightly-dressed salads, and many gigantic liters and boots of beer. This place stands out during the day when you can sit at a picnic table, use WiFi for hours, and guzzle things alcoholic and otherwise. Unlike the crowded cafés up the street, this place is blessedly uncrowded, and won’t ask you to leave sooner than you want to—which is good, cause you’ll want to stay, at least until the late night revelers come in, and really start throwing back all of those boots.

The scene you might imagine inside this pint-sized cocktail bar—which doubles as a fantastic place to guzzle a Manhattan while waiting for a dinner table at Aita (by the same owners) next door—belongs to a Fitzgerald novel: men in coattails and women in drop-waist dresses, all having intimate tête-a-têtes, perched along banquette seating and two-tops. The bar itself, in line with the space, is short—just four seats—as is the list of house cocktails scrawled on a chalkboard hanging behind it. With one bartender as staff, each order can take a minute to mix. But the surroundings are so cozy and intimate that you won’t mind the wait.
