Cuisine Type: Venetian
|
| Apart from the "inevitable long wait" ("if only they took reservations!"), pretty much "nothing beats" this "laid-back" Park Sloper's "top-notch" Venetian cuisine, "reasonable" prices and "accommodating" service; the "whole wonderful experience" is enough to make you want to go "al di time" – including during "recently begun lunch service", when tables are easier to come by. |

Cuisine Type: American (New)
|
| Aka the "Blue Hill of Brooklyn", this "refined" Park Sloper proffers a "fantastic" New American menu built around "sustainable", "locally sourced" ingredients; fans find "no thorns" here, save for the too-"small" setting and long "lines" for the "big-draw brunch." |

Cuisine Type: Sushi
|
| This "serene" SoHo–Park Slope Japanese twosome from the versatile Bromberg siblings owes its stellar reputation to "exquisite", "like-it-was-caught-that-morning" fresh fish and appealingly "no-fuss" service; for such "top-notch" meals, sushiphiles willingly brave "long waits" and serious tabs. |

Cuisine Type: American (New)
|
| A "favorite" of the "locally grown–obsessed", this "homey", "pricey" Park Slope New American standout delivers "creative" cuisine highlighting "just-off-the-farm-fresh" ingredients (including an "outstanding" brunch); the "nothing-fancy" digs get "a tad too loud" and "tight" when the "local hipster" crowd converges – but "caring" service eases the pain. |

Cuisine Type: Mediterranean
|
| "Delectable" Mediterranean "country fare" served in "quaint, rustic" environs gives this "under-the-radar" Park Sloper its "farmhouse-in-Sardinia" feel; the "lovely" garden, wine cellar "hideaway" and "warm", "well-trained" staff make this "labor of love" "one of the most romantic places" around. |
