"F&F is from the same people behind two other spots on this list (F&F Pizzeria and Frankies), but it’s a little more grown-up than its predecessors. The tables are well spaced out, it’s never too loud (but it's also never too quiet), and the wine flows just enough but not too much. Bring your parents who always ask for the music to be turned down just a little, and share a few personal pies, the ultra-lemony scampi, and a slice of burnt cheesecake for dessert." - neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman
"For a spritz with less chance of lines, head to F&F Restaurant. During the summer, the elegant Italian restaurant has outdoor seating on a quiet corner in Carroll Gardens, and they open at 4pm. (The perfect time to log off and fake a dentist appointment.) If you get peckish (drunk), stay for dinner and order an impeccably charred clam pie." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, bryan kim, sonal shah
"After five years, owners Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli shuttered Franks Wine Bar, kept the wine selection and transitioned the space to an expansion of F&F Pizzeria. The former takeout only spot now has a dining room, too. The sit-down menu includes a handful of pies, pastas, big salads to share, calzones, carpaccio, and a Sicilian chicken. Note dine-in is Wednesday to Sunday." - Robert Sietsema
"F&F Restaurant in Carroll Gardens is from the team behind Frankies 457, an Italian spot with brick walls that trap in all the birthday songs. F&F is different. Here, the tables are spaced out, the wine flows at a restrained pace, and even that iPad kid in the corner is well-behaved. Bring family members who always ask for the music to be turned down, and share a few nicely charred pizzas." - molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
"An extended restaurant for the successful slice shop, transforming an old wine bar space." - Emma Orlow
