Among the restaurants that earned stars in this year’s Michelin guide, there was one big surprise among the expected heavyweights. Gabe McMackin’s the Finch, a Clinton Hill restaurant that quietly opened ten months ago, was awarded a single star, a major get for the ambitious neighborhood spot that had so far flown pretty far under the radar.

No pizza has been more talked about and celebrated than the Detroit-style square pies—and with good reason. The decadent pizzas are buttery in all the right places, crunchy in all the right places, and cheesy in all the right places.

Kinjo has a full sushi bar and kitchen that produces Japanese and Korean classics (and some excellent soy-ginger wings). But the bar is also large, and host to many a local’s day-ending sake. If cooking is not in your future, plenty of sushi rolls and bowls of ramen are served along with them.

This German Beer Hall is run, romantically, by a German couple with Black Forest roots. There are lots of sausages, pretzels, fresh, lightly-dressed salads, and many gigantic liters and boots of beer. This place stands out during the day when you can sit at a picnic table, use WiFi for hours, and guzzle things alcoholic and otherwise. Unlike the crowded cafés up the street, this place is blessedly uncrowded, and won’t ask you to leave sooner than you want to—which is good, cause you’ll want to stay, at least until the late night revelers come in, and really start throwing back all of those boots.

Bombay Heights is a fusion of East Indian cuisine. Great for sit in or take out. I often order on Seamless and pick it up and bring it home. They have a great dinner special with one appetizer and one entree, which is usually enough for two!

Filipino food takes a Tex-Mex swerve! The nachos are delicious. They have a very cute out door space in the back and tons of games if you're in a group. On select days they also have breakfast and lunch.

One of Bed-Stuy/Clinton Hill’s most beloved restaurants, Rustik Tavern has welcomed neighbors to enjoy its delicious American fare, friendly service, and an unparalleled cozy atmosphere. Rustik’s fiercely flavorful menu consists of classic comfort dishes with a Rustik flair. I've never had a dish here I didn't like - french fries are to die for!

Seasonally driven, locally sourced, sustainable, and globally inspired menus. Paired with a curated wine list of boutique vineyards from the USA, beer mainly brewed in the five boroughs, and seasonally inspired cocktails crafted with house made ingredients & small batch domestic spirits. Coffee from NYC legends- Mud, espresso roasted just a couple blocks away at Kitten Coffee, and a great selection of organic teas grown domestically. GREAT happy hour and outdoor patio in the back!

The scene you might imagine inside this pint-sized cocktail bar—which doubles as a fantastic place to guzzle a Manhattan while waiting for a dinner table at Aita (by the same owners) next door—belongs to a Fitzgerald novel: men in coattails and women in drop-waist dresses, all having intimate tête-a-têtes, perched along banquette seating and two-tops. The bar itself, in line with the space, is short—just four seats—as is the list of house cocktails scrawled on a chalkboard hanging behind it. With one bartender as staff, each order can take a minute to mix. But the surroundings are so cozy and intimate that you won’t mind the wait.
