Top 5 Brooklyn Hot Spots


Reynard  

Reynard
80 Wythe Avenue at N. 11th St., Williamsburg; 718-460-8004
A scene-y hotel restaurant at the bottom of the Wythe brought to you by practiced Williamsburg tastemaker Andrew Tarlow.

Dover
412 Court St., nr. 1st Pl., Carroll Gardens; 347-987-3545
The classically minded cuisine at Walker Stern and Joseph Ogrodnek's storefront restaurant is becoming a hallmark of the next era of Brooklyn cooking.

St. Anselm
355 Metropolitan Ave., nr. Havemeyer St., Williamsburg; 718-384-5054
You don't typically find cooking this good and prices this reasonable at a steakhouse.

Battersby
255 Smith St., nr. Douglass St., Carroll Gardens; 718-852-8321
With the small, tightly focused menu, you’ll feel like you’re a guest at a festive pop-up dining club or the chefs’ own semi-private party.

Colonie
127 Atlantic Ave., nr. Henry St., Brooklyn Heights; 718-855-7500
An elegant, seasonally driven spot with an appealingly loose menu format.
