"If you’re planning a socially distant special occasion soon, like an intimate birthday dinner or a solo celebration in honor of your trumpet-playing roommate’s return to his family’s farm in Kansas, try L’Antagoniste. It’s a somewhat pricey French spot with a big garden patio where you can eat wagyu beef steak tartare and duck à l’orange by candlelight." - nikko duren
"From the razor-sharp service staff and its charming décor (think elegantly set wood tables and banquettes), to the killer but notably traditional French menu, everything about this buzzing hangout in burgeoning Bed-Stuy is bang-on. Owner Amadeus Broger is the master of operations here and appears to have just one, single formula in mind—and that is to churn out serious food in a fun and convivial setting. Don’t miss the soufflé au fromage, rendered light and frothy with nutty Comté; the tournedos Rossini, tender filet mignon over a potato pancake, topped with foie gras medallions and finished with Madeira; or the perfectly executed duck a l’orange." - Sophie Friedman

"This Bed-Stuy French farm-to-table restaurant is offering a broad range of bottles to accompany its family dinner specials and a la carte menu. Wines are mostly classic French varietals with a few new world selections sprinkled in and range dramatically in price—from $20 bordeauxs to rare “Go Crazy” selections, including a $1,650 Romanée pinot noir. Pickup only." - Leah Rosenzweig
"Complementary glasses of Moulin de Gassac Rosé or bottles of Kronenbourg." - Abbe Baker
