Great cocktails, good wine list, delicious food and great ambiance all the criteria to make it one of the best restaurants in Fort Greene. For cocktails, just keep your waiter reordering the veridian because it is maybe one of the most refreshing drinks I’ve ever had and you’re going to want more than one. I have tried to replicate the whipped ricotta at home and it is just so good it cannot be done.įor main dishes, the falafel is great, as well as the skewers, za’atar crusted salmon and the shahsuka. Start with the dips, all of them, but really don’t skip out on the hummus, beets and whipped ricotta. The food and cocktails here are incredible and so unique they are unlike any others in the city. Just like so many Fort Greene restaurants listed above, Miss Ada has a charming, cozy and ivy covered back patio, which is covered making it available in all seasons and hands down one of the best restaurants in Brooklyn. Go ahead and set your Resy notify now because this is one of those places that you have to be quick to get a reservation. Miss AdaĪnother incredible Mediterranean focused restaurant in Fort Greene is Miss Ada. Olea is one of those restaurants where everyone can find something they like, even your picky friend who is constantly on a diet. They just recently started taking a limited number of reservations, which is recommended because it does get very busy during happy hour and weekend brunch. If you want something larger, the Greek chicken platter is great as well as the paella. The tapas are all amazing and you should definitely order several (or all) of the dips to start. Really anything you order is going to be delicious and the serving sizes are perfect to share with friends. They have a great patio for warm spring days but the inside is also cozy enough that it is the place you want to visit during a snowy winter day. The menu is Mediterranean-focused and it is the type of place that is truly good for any occasion or time of year. Olea is another neighborhood restaurant staple in Fort Greene that really is set in the middle of the neighborhood, sandwiched in between brownstones on Lafayette. OleaĪ post shared by Lady Rigatoni Lafayette Avenue This Fort Greene restaurant accepts reservations and have a great weekly happy hour and I will say the worst part about moving out of this neighborhood is not being able to go here once a week. They also have a delicious cheese plate, great salads, and a very affordable wine list.
Other standout menu items include the spaghetti limone, spinach gnocchi pomodoro, and the spaghetti carbonara. I have no regrets starting with ricotta pancakes and ordering a chicken parmesan sandwich for brunch because neither can be topped at any other restaurant in New York. The best thing on the menu is pasta, for brunch, lunch, or dinner but do not skip out on the ricotta pancakes on the brunch menu if you find yourself here on a weekend morning or afternoon. You feel like you’re in someone’s (very affordable) backyard. Their back patio is an oasis, covered in trees and white tables. They have weekend brunch and lunch and dinner during the week and each one is just as special. It is your go-to neighborhood, casual but not too casual, Italian restaurant. Walter’sĭino is a place I have visited over and over again and each time I am equally as impressed. Needless to say, next time you’re wandering around Fort Greene park and want some consistently delicious pasta, stop here. The pastas and antipasti are the winners here and they even have a small shop that you can wander in to buy handmade pasta, bread, cheese, and olive oils. Reservations are accepted and they serve dinner and brunch on the weekends. The inside is also great, which slightly resembles a log cabin but with a Tuscan vibe. The ambiance gives all the secret garden vibes with an amazing back patio covered in ivy and vines and even the sidewalk dining is aesthetically pleasing.
In fact, I have made it my personal mission to try all the top Italian spots in the city and La Rina Pastifico & Vino ranks right up there as one of the greatest Italian Fort Greene restaurants but in all of New York. Italian is consistently rated as one of the best cuisines and New York has no shortage of incredible Italian restaurants. A post shared by Lowereeeatsside Myrtle Avenue
