Milanese-inspired cafe with crudo bar, pizzas, and cocktails





































"The sidewalk seating at this Italian restaurant is the place to sit with a Negroni or a spritz in Fort Greene and watch people go by. Maybe you’ll order a pizza and the evening will turn into dinner, and maybe it won’t—nobody here really seems to care." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah
"Airy and artsy, Saraghina is a nice place for a pizza and spritz brunch. Equally great for groups or a refreshing lone drink on the patio, this place is charming inside and out. Look out for the hand-drawn portraits on the façade and the tasty seasonal specials." - Ramona Todoca

"This Italian restaurant in Fort Greene is the premiere Brooklyn spot for sitting with a spritz, not worrying how long you’ve been there, and listening to dogs bark, and babies cry, or perhaps both at the same time. Maybe you’ll order a pizza and the evening will turn into dinner, and maybe it won’t—nobody really seems to care." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, bryan kim, sonal shah
"If Dekalb Avenue between Vanderbilt Ave. and Fort Greene Park were the neighborhood's hottest club, the outdoor seating at Saraghina Caffè would be the best table in the house. This Italian restaurant is where you should sit with a negroni or a spritz, not worry how long you’ve been there, and listen to a dog bark, a baby cry, or perhaps both at the same time. Maybe you’ll order a pizza and the evening will turn into dinner, and maybe it won’t—nobody really seems to care." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick
"Since this is a guide about Bed-Stuy, it’s time you learn the golden rule of the neighborhood. If it’s nice out and you’re in the mood for a great Neapolitan-style pizza, go to Saraghina and sit on the secret back patio. The inside feels like a very nice antique store, with white farmhouse furniture, vintage hotel signage, and an old-timey wall phone. Come for a weeknight dinner or stop by on a Saturday and drink a lot of wine." - will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja
