Sometimes – in the pursuit of good food – it's worth venturing out a bit. That's certainly the case with Prospect Heights' Garden Cafe. Not at all caught up in the hubbub of the Manhattan dining scene, this cozy corner spot marches to its own beat (skillfully led by owner-chef John Policastro) and goes about the business of serving New American...

From the River Cafe, diners are able to take in the majesty and spectacle of the looming skyline across the water. Inside, they find that service and food complement the wonderful view. Try sea bass with mashed potatoes for a real winner, and top it off with a luscious dessert. Sunday brunch, meanwhile, enamors with dishes like duck steak and egg,...

Looking for an old school setting where you can devour a mammoth porterhouse and munch on fried potatoes? This two-story, time-honored steak place is perfect for you. Remember not to ask for a menu, as menus are reserved for only tourists of the most naive kind. Luger's makes it simple by serving only one cut, the porterhouse, but they do that one...

Located in the Carroll Gardens section of Brooklyn, this intimate little dining room has created quite the stir, managing to combine all the best qualities of a neighborhood-style mom and pop with outstanding New American fare tinged with a few French influences.

Located in Brooklyn's Boerum Hill area, this sparse little number has raised eyebrows and charmed palates on a regular basis since Saul Bolton (once part of the kitchen team at Midtown's Le Bernardin) first opened the doors way back in 1999. Indeed, Bolton's seasonal New American fare always seems to be ahead of the game, and the presentations and...

Just four blocks away from Prospect Park sits a most distinctive neighborhood eatery ... a place that takes the flavorful cuisine and wine of the Mediterranean and delivers them amid cream-colored walls, a pressed tin ceiling, rich silk draperies, and rustic wooden tables. Upon scanning the menu, diners quickly learn that Tempo borrows from both...

A neighborhood standard since 1973, this simple, red-brick eatery has enjoyed a devout following over the years. Owner Mark Lahm, a bus boy here in the '80s, is a CIA-trained chef who isn't afraid to take the familiar and make it extraordinary – his Southern fried chicken, for example, is coated in a mixture of garlic, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove....

If you're a movie buff, the key words "Elia" and "Brooklyn" may recall Kazan's adaptation of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn." That said, this Greek charmer is giving folks a whole new reason to think fondly of Brooklyn, Bay Ridge in particular. Like traditional estiatorios or tavernas – those social centerpieces of Greece's quaint seaside villages –...
