- $12.50
- Cuisine:
- Pizza, Italian
Amorina in Prospect Heights was recommended to us by Fjorder, and AlwaysEating claims that it serves "the best pizza in the nabe, and is easily the holder of the best slices. It's hard to resist their slice special, two square slices and a Boylan's soda for $5, one of the better deals I've found in Park Slope or Prospect Heights." "Ruth Kaplan, the pizzaiola,...

What draws so many regular customers to this neighborhood Japanese joint is its affordable sushi and it's welcoming spirit: "Maybe it's the wonderfully friendly waitresses that welcome you and bid you goodnight one by one or the graffiti and marker covered walls showing the history of the place," says AlwaysEating.

- Cuisine:
- American, Bistro, Brunch Spot
"Deep in the brownstones of Prospect Heights, away from the cafés of Flatbush and Vanderbilt Avenues, with their homelier crowds and everyday fare, James glows like a well-kept campfire, luring diners to an otherwise quiet residential block," writes Mike Peed for the New Yorker.

"The dungeon-like front room has dimly lit banquets perfect for first-daters and a dark wood bar... while a sea-green back room is hung with ancient wall maps and iron chandeliers," writes Timothy Cooper in New York magazine. He also describe the size of Beast's small plates: "tapas-plus—larger portions than you’ll find in Spain, and definitely non-standard." "[Chef Deborah] Bicknese's herb bread - rolled flat...

Back in 2000, New York magazine named Christie's home of the best Jamaican patty in the city — and this no-frills eatery remains a go-to spot for delicious and filling cheap eats. For those who aren't familiar, their patties are large, flaky, yellow pastries stuffed with beef, chicken, or vegetables. Peter Meehan of the New York Times favors the beef filling: "It is moister...

"At Franny’s, a pizza isn’t just a pizza—it’s a political statement, the vehicle for expressing a worldview shared by husband-and-wife owners Andrew Feinberg and Francine Stephens, veterans of Savoy and as committed to the Chez Panissean tenets of local, sustainable agriculture as they are to the venerable tradition of artisanal pizza-making," write Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld of New York magazine.

"Aside from a few artfully displayed farm implements and staid portraits, the long, high-ceilinged space is more urban chic than country quaint," say New York magazine's Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld of Flatbush Farm. AlwaysEating likes to sit in the bar area, which is called "Bar(n)" and is adjacent to the dining room, because it offers "dimmer lighting, wooden tables and a more friendly... Read More >

"The menu reflects the culturally diverse clientele serving solid new American fare, English pub grub, and a few soul food dishes.

"Zaytoons has the standard kasbah trappings, with hanging lanterns, dark, tasseled curtains and a decorative hookah or two, but here the food--more than the atmosphere--creates a transporting experience," writes Karen Rosenberg for Citysearch. Time Out New York calls the food "excellent, distinctive, slightly offbeat—and stunningly affordable."
