Kole hansenNovember 9, 2012The Mac and cheese was awesome but the burger left something to be desired. The only real down side was the amount of time it took to get food on a slow night, 25 minutes for the starter.
katie naglApril 16, 2009Venture to Fort Greene to see what NY Mag has been raving about. Order the ham and gruyere bread pudding! (ps: BAM is within walking distance if you want to catch a movie)
Emily GrossMarch 26, 2011Delicious bloody marys, they have a bit of a kick, and they look beautiful!
The bacon scallion biscuit changed my life! The new pastry chef is awesome!
Christina ChoiAugust 12, 2010please get the thick cut candied bacon and the salted pretzel ice cream!
Delicious Sangria! "Small plates" such as the yogurt pork ribs have become HUMONGOUS.
Ice cream = $1 cheaper if you buy it from the cart (vs. off the menu). Chocolate = da best. Salted caramel is good too.- LaurenSeptember 1, 2009Salted caramel ice cream is spectacular and so are all the cocktails. Oh, and the mac and cheese. Yum!
Chris HolmesNovember 4, 2010GF raved about the sandwich she had for lunch so I dragged her back for brunch. Her scrambled eggs and kale were bland and my skillett was so so. Menu said "sausage and gravy" but what I got was meg
get the Celerita or the Greene Lemonade, made with celery and cucumber, respectively. seriously refreshing on a hot summer day.
Stanley WongFebruary 1, 2010candied bacon, roasted beets, salted caramel ice cream...need I say more (YUM!) Read more
Antoine (IHMDJ!)September 21, 2009The Pepper Ribs are served with a pink colored yogurt sauce... looks slightly bizarre at first, but tastes amazing
