Get ready to be blown away when you step into this absolutely delicious Italian joint. The moment you walk in, you'll be happy. The place is grand and welcoming, with this wooden bar, cute garden, sleek dining tables, and penny-tiled floor. They keep it real with minimal decor. They keep it fresh and seasonal, but you gotta start with their legendary sea trout tartare. That joint's been on point since day one, trust me. Then, you can't go wrong with their killer pasta dishes.

You gotta check out this spot on Court Street in Cobble Hill for some amazing bagels. They're the real deal, with just the right amount of air pockets and a perfectly crisp exterior. Keep it classic with their "Member Of The Tribe" bagel, stacked with nova and your choice of plain or scallion cream cheese (go for the scallion, trust me). But let me tell you, their pastrami smoked salmon is also a game-changer. And if you're closer to Park Slope or Gowanus, they've got a second location there at Shelsky's. Don't miss out!

Taqueria Ramirez is all about that Mexico City vibe. This place pays homage to the legendary spots over there. And even though there might be some lines, the wait won't be more than 15 minutes, tops.

I would say Roberta's Pizza pioneered the trend of exceptional Neapolitan pizza in NYC and beyond. Over time, it has evolved into an internationally recognized brand. This particular Roberta's location is the original, known for its unique blend of a garden and gastro-commune. Don't be put off by its unassuming exterior, as inside you'll discover some of the finest dinner pizza in NYC. Additionally, they cultivate their own ingredients right in the backyard.
