Where to Eat in Red Hook Right Now
"Cafe Kestrel opened last summer in a Red Hook space that has housed several other food businesses over the years. It’s a lovely little storefront with just a few tables that feel right for a date night. Owner-chef Dennis Spina, years back, was known for Roebling Tea Room, and more recently, the kitchen at Metrograph. Standouts over visits included the fried squash blossoms, the chicken with carrots and capers (sort of a piccata play), as well as an apple sauce sundae. It’s a new restaurant that feels like it has been there forever in the best way possible. The menu rotates." - Emma Orlow
