"Pitt’s in Red Hook is from the chef at Crown Heights favorite Agi’s Counter, though the food in this 1970s-inspired space—with carrot wallpaper and vegetable knick-knacks—is rooted in Americana rather than Eastern Europe. The menu has things like gouda pimento with fried golden Saltines, pickled shrimp with oyster mayo, and grilled mutton chops served with mint jelly. They also have swordfish au poivre—a dish we’ve recently seen versions of at The Otter and Time and Tide." - will hartman, bryan kim
