but so good: Place des Fêtes and Locanda Second Olea and if you're willing to dip into Fort Greene -- Miss Ada is incredible. Haven't been in a minute but Speedy Romeo has good pizza and is casual.
Amazing pizza, pasta, apps in ridgewood sooooo yumm. Not crazy expensive but definitely an awesome place to go on a date. The staff there is also super nice.
perfect cozy red sauce italian joint in a neighborhood that's becoming increasingly "hip"
"live laugh love" esq art everywhere, fun wait staff, mean looking owner, it's got it all. feels like home the pro order is chicken parm with vodka sauce. portions are large enough to get an entire second meal out of, but i usually just do it all in one go and wash it down with the house chianti
some people go their whole lives without experiencing something they want to do or allowing themselves to try something. the rules are made up. you are not too old for anything
