Theodora

The 19 Best Restaurants In Fort Greene - New York - The Infatuation

"Theodora is from the same people behind Miss Ada, and we like to think about it as a slightly more grown-up version of their original restaurant, with way more fish. Fish drawings on the menu, for instance. Fish matchboxes by the door. Fish sizzling away on the grills in the open kitchen, and hiramasa hanging in a dry-ager. You'll see groups crowded into the back room, sipping feta brine tequila cocktails and passing around whole branzino, and couples perched at the bar sharing red snapper ceviche. It’s a great place to spend a Thursday evening. Prioritize the small seafood plates, and the za’atar kubaneh, which tastes like a savory cinnamon roll. Reservations get released online 30 days in advance at 9am. They save the bar and a few tables for walk-ins, and waits aren’t atrocious. At 7pm on a Wednesday, the host quoted us 30-45 minutes for two spots at the bar. For a solo diner, there was no wait at all." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick
