Bed Stuy Restaurant Suggestions
A reader emailed us last night pointing out that the number of entries in the Restaurants Guide for Bed Stuy is pitifully low—and she’s right. Of course, the same could be said of some other nabes as well (Sunset Park, for example) and we’re working on that in general. In the meantime, we’d like readers…
A reader emailed us last night pointing out that the number of entries in the Restaurants Guide for Bed Stuy is pitifully low—and she’s right. Of course, the same could be said of some other nabes as well (Sunset Park, for example) and we’re working on that in general. In the meantime, we’d like readers to suggest the next five restaurants in Bed Stuy that we should cover. We’ll take Mrs. B out on a date to the two most popular and report back to you.
After some intrepid googling jogged my memory, I am pretty sure the Lewis Avenue wine bar is called Therapy.
Also found this cool blogpost which contains some other ideas:

i’d love to see some reviews for the russian restaurants in the brighton / sheepshead bay area. i don’t know any really except for attending a wedding at odessa which was awesome fun.
Unfortunately, there aren’t a whole lot of good restaurants in Bed Stuy, a common complaint. Most of them have been mentioned: Peaches, Saraghina, Brooks Valley. There used to be Solomon’s porch, but the food was just average anyhow.
Shame on Brownstoner for not shining the spotlight on Sunset Park restaurants. The nabe surely have a great selection of Chinese and Mexican spots.
Amen to that, Dittoburg. I’m too lazy to cook my own collard greens and catfish these days. Sigh. Night of the Cookers was a huge disappointment so I’m still searching.
I wish soul food restaurants were as widespread in the boroughs as chinese takeaways.
“There is a new wine bar on Lewis that just opened with food”
Those of us that went on Amzi’s BedStuy walking tour a few weeks ago had a quick look in this place. They had a soft opening that evening & the owner invited us in as we walked past. The name escapes me, argh.
It is a well decortated and comfortable space. There is also a quiet garden. Friendly vibe. We did not have time to stop for food or drinks but it seemed like a cool place.
‘Twas ever thus. Way back in the 20s & on popular night spots would advertise to being exotic by saying things such as, “Where the elite meet the beat.”
I’d like to see some reviews of soul food restaurants in the Sty. I’m tired of hiking to Amy Ruth’s in Harlem for my soul food fix.
elitist and entitled are coming close to hipster blanket putdowns. it’s really tired. people who are happy don’t go around hating on other groups that have little to no impact on their lives.
