Forget everything else. Order the grilled bread and the eggplant w/ rabbit. #happiness
Top 5 meals in NYC!! I'm obsessed. Grilled bread, lamb on a flaming cinnamon stick and oxtail stew 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Braised lamb, pita and labneh w/ grilled bread were amazing. Definitely with checking out.
The gorgonzola mushroom polenta is out of this world! Ask for a side of grilled bread to dip in the sauce (costs extra but worth it)
Beef, veal, and pork ragú Bolognese, all the way.
The Cubano Italiano panini is off the chain. Braised short rib & prosciutto with red onion, peppers and swiss cheesy. Come get some.
The rotating steak preparations are all epic, and be sure to start with the homemade Ricotta on grilled bread.
Tied for Bitches Who Brunch's NYC Best Bites 2016 winner for Best Breakfast Sandwich! The egg was perfectly cooked, and the house-made English muffin was light and flaky. Read more.
Get the chicken sandwich
Sundays only: roasted chicken for two, with grilled bread & spinach stuffing and a soft-boiled egg oozing over the top.
Hidden among all of the other amazing items on their menu is the best burger in the neighborhood - and it's a good deal, too. Eat it.
Southern-inspired and always interesting, Buttermilk Channel is worth checking out. The grilled flatbread and vegetable sides with cheddar waffles are always stand outs.
Straightforward, home-style Italian food, with the BEST garlic knots. Get the house salad, followed by fried zucchini and something from their specials menu.
Good stuff
Fresh, delicious, can't go wrong with anything on this menu...and top it off with zeppoles!
Their custom omelettes and Turkey bacon is delicious.
Love the pancakes here.
Good grub after a long day!
Ordered their family style (COVID-era) dinner for two and WOW all around. Patatas bravas were crispy with the right amount of spice. The eggplant was amazing. Tuna was great. GET THE LIME PIE! 😍😍😍
I highly recommend going double porky: start with the pork belly tacos (homemade tortillas + guacamole are slamming) and end with the Heritage pork. Oink!
try any item on the menu that includes homemade tortillas.
Great ambiance and better food. I had their Chicken Marsala. The chicken breast was moist and tender. The Marsala sauce was excellent. Great staff including valet parking a needed plus in Bay Ridge.
Sofia has the best staff in Bay Ridge
Use valet service. Parking is very hard to find.
Great place for romantic date...house wine and duck highly recommended..it is better to make reservation..too popular place
Ted Allen hungers for the Italian cuisine at Locanda Vini & Olli in Brooklyn, NY on Food Network's The Best Thing I Ever Ate. We recommend the Duck Breast w/Fruit Compote. Find more tips at FN Local. Read more.
Beautiful restaurant. Wood paneling evokes an old Italian library or pharmacy. Recs: Thyme maltagliati w/ roasted mushrooms. Pignoli cookies for dessert. Service isn't in-your-face. Great vibe overall
The pizzas are obviously great, but the (unsung) true stars are the veggie, pasta and kitchen dishes. Also a surprisingly great pastry program. The stracciatella w grilled bread is a must.
The pizza is awesome. The toppings are unique. Pour some spicy oil to enhance the beautiful flavors. Wear your hipster garb.
Here's what happens when hipster chefs get it right. Market-driven goodness and go-to pizzas. Check out the Heritage Radio Network, which broadcasts from the dining room on Sundays. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Ideal French bistro: good food at very good price and laissez-faire attitude (this is a good thing). Please visit again and again, we need more places like Olivier!
The quiche lorraine salad is a classic! Read more.
Everything is good here! Brunch especially. The service is tight and fast, but fuck if they only take cash. Hey the IRS called they want their money...still worth swinging by the ATM.
Go for the delicious bibb salad. Yes, I said delicious.
Get the Brussels sprouts. Don't be a dick.
I was a brunch atheist--I didn't believe in it and thought it was a waste of valuable sleeping hours. Then I had Walter's chicken & waffles. I am currently searching for an apartment on the block.
Check the specials. If the shrimp with pimenton is on the menu, call me immediately—and save me a seat. The Roasted Daurade dish will change a bad day to good. Great cocktails. Great espresso bar.
The coffee is rocket fuel. I may punch someone.
If you want to cure a hangover you've gotta order the slow-cooked pork with jalapeno cornbread & over-easy eggs. Mix it all up and add some Tabasco. Hangover = gone.
Had the malfatti and tagliatelle al ragu. Butter sauce of the malfatti is super tasty and great flavours for the ragu. Going to try the rabbit next time and risotto!
Be prepared to queue up for a table: al di là is one of the most popular spots on Park Slope’s restaurant-packed Fifth Avenue. Chef Anna Klinger's fresh take on Italian fare is worth the wait. Read more.

Good food, just like you make at home.

Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
