The Brooklyn Hit List: The Best New Restaurants In Brooklyn - New York - The Infatuation
"The wine bar in Greenpoint serves the kind of food we eat in fantasies about dining al fresco by the ocean while draped in cashmere—like we imagine Meryl Streep does on Sunday evenings. And you'll find dreamy bites, like a phenomenal plate of gildas, featuring three skewered boquerones in a rich olive oil, and a mackerel toast made with buttery slabs of house-pickled fish. But this is also a north Brooklyn establishment, with a north Brooklyn crowd. Located in a former art gallery with trapezoidal angles and a yet-to-open upstairs loft, Cecily may be draped in cashmere but it’s also wearing a killer pair of vintage leather boots. Come here when you want to impress your date with nice things, without going to a stuffy restaurant. " - Will Hartman, Willa Moore, Neha Talreja, Sonal Shah, Tiffany Yannetta
