"Tucked in Williamsburg, this cozy, tavern-like spot strikes a rare balance of laid-back yet elevated and consistently delicious. I come for the Butcher’s Steak—charred perfectly, tender and juicy inside—and share it with fingerling potatoes and long green beans; after dark the candlelit room feels like a warm, secret pocket of the city, and the staff or bartender will happily steer you to a wine that suits both the food and your mood." - Charlie Hobbs
