Notable Picks
#1
Emily
8.6
A Clinton Hill original that earns its reputation on two lanes: Detroit-leaning pizza with a caramelized edge and a serious burger program that still feels restaurant-first. Go with a tight, shareable order and let the kitchen’s savory, browned-cheese strengths do the talking.
Must-Try Dishes:
Emmy Burger, Colony Pizza, Housemade Pretzel with Beer Cheese
What makes it special: A rare pizza-and-burger spot where both feel like signatures.
#2
Speedy Romeo
8.4
A big, loud neighborhood room where pizzas lean smoky and maximal—crisp-edged crust, punchy flavors, and enough menu range to turn it into a full dinner. The best results come from choosing one iconic specialty pie and keeping sides minimal so the pizza stays the headline.
Must-Try Dishes:
White Album Pizza, Whole Burrata Love Pizza, Margherita
What makes it special: A signature-pie shop that bakes in smoke and swagger.

Trendy Table Hotspots
A Clinton Hill Southern-leaning room where the BBQ-adjacent comfort lane (ribs, pulled pork, smoky mains) shares the stage with seafood, but the kitchen still understands how to build deep, savory satisfaction. Best experienced as a tight order: one rib or pork-forward main, one classic side, then stop before it turns into a greatest-hits spread.
Must-Try Dishes:
Happy hour ribs, Pulled pork sandwich, Shrimp and grits
What makes it special: Southern comfort with a real ribs-and-smoke lane in Clinton Hill.
8.2
A Fulton Street sit-down that hits the sweet spot between comfort and polish—dumplings, noodle-house energy, and a menu built for repeat orders. It’s best when you commit to two signatures and one vegetable side, letting the kitchen’s savory, fried-and-steamed strengths land hot.
Must-Try Dishes:
Chicken dumplings (fried), Salt & pepper shrimp, Hot & sour soup
What makes it special: Dumpling-and-noodle comfort with a more grown-up dining-room feel.

Sisters
7.8
A farm-to-table-leaning all-day room where the sourcing message is real—organic meats, local produce when possible—and the menu lands best on comfort-forward staples. Come for the space and the easy hang, then order one creamy, one crunchy, and stop there.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mac and Cheese, Burger, Shishitos
What makes it special: Farm-forward sourcing in a big, design-y all-day hangout.
