 This "focacceria Palermitana" emulates the snack parlors of Sicily's capital, where one eats a hurried meal standing up. Joe's is far more comfortable, with a gleaming carryout division in front, and booths in an adjacent room. Octopus salad and pasta con sardea sardine sauce thickened... More >> |

 Nothing in the borough is quite as challenging as the roast beef hero at John's Delimasses of warm, pink meat on a crusty hero, topped with melting slices of mozzarella and gobbed with a midnight gravy. Just close your eyes and bite. Hint: Wear something washable. More >> |

This intimate Israeli restaurant, difficult to find on its side street, turns out wonderful hummus, irrigated with tahini and olive oil. The warm homemade pitas send it into orbit.

 Pick this Midwood Turk and enjoy the bizarre wall-sized mural (bigger-than-life tents, camels, and belly-dancers) in addition to some of the best kebabs in town. Our favorite is the beyti kebablamb with sweet and hot red peppers chopped using an ancient method featuring a chef brandishing... More >> |
