"This trendy Brooklyn spot from Chef Paul D’Avino is quirky from start to finish, and that's exactly what makes it shine. The contemporary menu is equal parts modern and nostalgic, with an outlandish creativity to boot. It's all intended for sharing, so come with a gang and kick off the festivities with four squares of negroni Jell-O with Castelvetrano olives suspended inside. Garlic knot monkey bread is topped with dollops of Parmesan butter. Pastas get an equal dose of creativity, as seen in the bucatini naporitan with diced porcini mushrooms and nardello peppers along with Japanese pork sausage links shaped to resemble baby octopuses. Finally, marble olive cake may look typical but it's anything but, with a salty-sweet combination that brings it all home." - Michelin Inspector
