 This perfect gastropub moved into an obscurely located corner bar in Prospect Heights. The front room retains its old-Brooklyn feel (and jukebox), while the back room has been transformed into a sunny cafe. True to its gastropub nature, the food is mainly for the sake of comfort, with a few... More >> |

 James is a very polite addition to the handsome brownstoned Prospect Heights neighborhood, a bistro so good that it makes Manhattan jealous.

 This side project of wine bar Aliseo, located across the street, is equally kooky. While the decor apes ancient Brooklyn pizzerias, with its red-checked cloths and stick chairs, the menu is more assertive. Maybe a pizza with dried cherries, orange peel, and nutmeg is not exactly your thang, but... More >> |
