Best Coffee house in greenpoint
Once you have a coffee in hand, and you're either eating, talking, reading or working in this cozy place, you don't ever want to leave.
Really cool place to get creative during weekdays when only a few people are there.
Doesn't get as crowded as Brooklyn, Label, excellent coffee and food. Good service.
If you go for dinner, DO NOT MISS the Chicken Gnocchism, they're too good.
Oh, and there's free wifi

Perfect Brunch by the park
Don't miss a saturday morning for Brunch outside by this corner side
Luncheonette.
You can't go wrong with your selection of any of the omelettes.
They have a very good natural orange juice.
Location is pretty awesome since you have McCarren park right in front.

Excellent Food and Nice Loungy Feel
The attention, The Food and the loungy feel are awesome.
We had what they call Bonjoo "Tapas" and Bibimbap, which is basically mixed rice, veggies and your choice of chicken, bulgogi (beef), or whatever else they had in the menu.
The interesting part is that it comes on this extremely hot stone dish, and you have to start mixing it up as it still cooks in front of you. Then you add this house soy sauce and you're all set.
However, my favorite part of the meal was a "Bonjoo Tapa" called "Bonjoo Mari", I highly recommend you order one of these for yourself and don't share it, it's too good.
Bonjoo Mari is a deep fried egg roll stuffed with spinach, mozzarella cheese, onions, red peppers and ham, too good.

Best Service, Awesome Coffee
I love coming here for coffee and lunch, coffee and dinner, or just coffee and reading.
Everyone in the staff has a tattoo and they're super friendly.
Good place, good crowd, good food, good coffee, good service.
Never had anything to complain about this place.
Also, if you can figure out the wireless WEP keys, you can sit and work with your laptop here.

The place for my latin-food-fix
I go here at least twice a week to get the food that I love, rice and beef stew.
They also make the best sweet plantains, they come out really good.
It's definitively very different than any other latin place in brooklyn, it has a different character to it.
Prices are awesome as well.

My comments are, don't miss the squared thin crust pizza, my favorite toppings at that restaurant are mushrooms and peperonni.
this is not your regular pizza, it's completly different.
And there used to be a really hot waitress, probably the best reason to go there. She's really exotic, she's colombian.
(from some site)
Square must be the new round judging by Adrienne's, a stylish joint venture from father-and-son restaurateurs Harry and Peter Poulakakos (Bayard's, Financier Patisserie, Ulysses) and Nick Angelis of Nick's Pizza fame. Although his superb signature round pie is on the menu, the big news is that Angelis has delved into the rarefied world of thin-crust square, or "grandma"-style pizza. Inspired by Brooklyn's Di Fara and its thin-crust Sicilian pie as well as the trend-setting grandma version at King Umberto's on Long Island, he's crafted a pizza that—dare we say it?—could surpass them both. It's wonderfully crisp, exquisitely balanced, and topped with a winning combo of oven-cooked chopped tomatoes, fior di latte, mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and pecorino. Antipasti, salads, and baked pastas round out the menu.

Get the Spinach Creamed Chicken
Sincerely go there and say:
"I know what I want, give me the Spinach Creamed Chicken and an extra rice"
They serve too little rise for the amount of cream they put.
You'll never forget this dish, one of the most delicious experiences you'll ever have.
Best Polish Food ever
Best Polish Food, and the service is super practical. Not the most corteous sometimes, but the food is amazing and very affordable.
You can have a Chicken Cutlet, Salad, and the best mash potatoes (polish style) you can imagine for only $6!!!
