The avocado and smoked eggplant biscuit sandwich on the brunch menu is everything that's right with vegan food.
Excellent Italian with thoughtful surprises, like roast Brussels sprouts served on a bed of whipped chickpeas with bacon and sorrel.
Charming (and consistently popular) Brooklyn Italian spot, a favorite Boerum Hill neighborhood dinner spot.
There's always an interesting and flavorful tofu treatment on the menu. Great for vegetarians and carnivores alike.
“‘Portlandia’-level preciousness is forgivable because the kitchen is equally meticulous. At Marco’s, a fancier and more expensive restaurant, the pastas are the primi, rather than the main event.” En savoir plus .

Southern-inspired and always interesting, Buttermilk Channel is worth checking out. The grilled flatbread and vegetable sides with cheddar waffles are always stand outs.
