Always a go-to place for food. Great with friends or sit at the bar and enjoy delicious Latin fare while sampling their cocktails.

If you can get a reservation, this place is amazing. Voted one of the best restaurants in Park Slope. If you can't get in here, you can try al di la vino around the corner.

Really nice bar staff. I've frequently dropped by for a drink and love snacking on their fried chickpeas. They also have a back garden if the weather is nice

You must check this place out. The locally sourced menu is only rivaled by the friendliness of the staff. You truly feel like you're part of the family

Delicious food, but the real draw is the wine cellar. Just head downstairs for a relaxing glass of wine and desserts in their wine cellar...really amazing!
