Food Scene
Fort Greene outpost of the Lower East Side's Gentleman Farmer. Home to an endearing menu of French-farmhouse cuisine with an impressive selection of affordable wines, it exemplifies all the best qualities of its predecessor but in a larger, brighter space with a subtle speakeasy vibe.
Slide into the leather bench seating illuminated by industrial brass sconces and enjoy amply portioned dishes that marry seasonal ingredients with traditional French cooking. Starters include foie gras torchon with mango chutney ($17), twice-cooked mushroom risotto ($16) and a lustrous venison Carpaccio ($14) that delicately tops a spread of Marsala-red meat with bits of red pepper and goat cheese.

“On the keeper list” in Fort Greene, this BAM-area “favorite” features “delightful” Med plates (including notably “wonderful tapas”) set down in “cozy”, “colorful” digs by an “accommodating” crew; since “everyone in the neighborhood” knows about it, be ready for “bustling” crowds and “long waits”, especially for brunch.

This solar-powered restaurant does things a little differently: Cuban and Mexican food is ordered at a counter, and taken to picnic tables in an patio strung up with lights and colorful umbrellas. Order a Cuban sandwich, the Mexican street food-inspired elote (cheese-topped corn on the cob), and a few margaritas—you’ll want sit and linger for a true live-like-a-local Brooklyn experience.
