    Must have: octopus, pizza dough and chicken. All are grilled & to die for. The chicken is phenomenal. I'm extremely picky about chicken as it's often over cooked and it was prepared perfectly.

    The pork belly, though a bit too fatty, is amazing, as is the fish with the crisp fried scallions. Skip the pizza dough--it's just pita warmed up. Great for sharing with friends!

    Great dishes for sharing. Get the brussels sprouts, beef brisket, and pork belly. And now you can pay with Cover here! (Esp. if you want to use Amex or multiple cards)

    The burger absolutely stands up to the hype, and I'm pretty sure the pork belly is seasoned with magic pixie dust.

    A little untraditional with 2 thin patties, goat cheese, pickles and caramelized onions, this is one of my favorite burgers.

    Don't miss the tomatoes. The genius chef-owners of this new spot drown Jersey tomatoes in a warm butter. And the rest of the smart, wide-reaching menu of small plates is equally inspired: Read more

    Overall amazing food. Get the octopus, pork chop, chicken, pizza dough and beef tongue (special). Lamb belly and bone marrow was just okay.

    Octopus, pizza dough, burger, chicken, tacos, and any seasonal vegetables are winners here. Great cocktails as well.

    Don’t let the name scare you; Chef Matthew Hamilton’s bone marrow tacos are unusually satisfying. #44 on our 100 Dishes to Eat Now

    The dishes are for sharing. Gotta try the bone marrow tacos, and the charred chili brussels sprouts are heaven.

    Small space, small plates: The only truly outsize thing about Matt Hamilton’s cozy canteen is the flavors. DIY bone-marrow tacos are a signature dish.

    The food is still innovative and delicious 3 years dining here. With that said, some days can be hit or miss (ie scallions in the burnt scallion fish TOO burnt). Hopefully just a phase though.

    Good but everything was very rich, even the Brussels sprouts (which were deep fried). So we couldn't finish half of what we ordered, for fear of gout.

    Order the bone-marrow tacos and wash them down with a one of their signature cocktails.

    Horseradish infused vodka is a must. Want to split the check or use Amex? Pay with Cover.

    In general I like the place, but it's grotesquely overrated and obscenely overpriced. A solid neighborhood option if you aren't averse to overpaying for proximity, but not a destination.

    I retract my previous tip about the burger. It's evolved since my original tip and I'm not a fan. Double patties are too thick and too much pickle. Also no sesame bun anymore.

    Delicious pizza dough and other small plates, but avoid the much lauded bone marrow tacos, which i found greasy and bland

    Overpriced, under-portioned, and lackluster food. If you want small plates in Brooklyn done right, go to Traif. If for some reason you do go, do not get the bone marrow tacos, they are flavorless.
