favorite restaurant in Park slope and why :)?

foods good if it isnt burnt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! there service is horrible and annoying stop being so stuck up and be nicer to people maybe people would love you guys moree......to bad the food doesnt suck i wouldnt ever get food from there!

but at least you seem to have enjoyed the cocktails

Lot 2, if it counts as part of the slope. Used to like Applewood, but too uneven - some days it's very average (or more accurately, subpar for the price).

Slope-accessible perhaps, but that's on the Prospect Heights side of Flatbush.

:wtf:

Fornino! Fabulous brunch. Service was excellent. The place is beautiful. Can't wait to try dinner.

beautiful? really? to each his/her own.

the food is fine, but hardly ranking among the best in the neighborhood. pizza isn't anywhere as good as franny's. not even close.

Who said anything about Pizza? And sorry, I don't shop at malls but thanks for that input.

i was really hoping it was going to be a great place.

it wasn't executed very well.

and yes, fornino is a pizza place. their website is:

www.forninoPIZZA.com

it is the 2nd location and the first one (opened in 2004) in williamsburg is excellent.

unfortunately the park slope fornino isn't nearly as good. the decor is cheesy and the food at the other location is much better sadly.

hope it does well as it's a large space, but i am not eager to go back.

You keep misreading what I write. I never said it wasn't a Pizza Place. I also never said I had Pizza when I went there. Jesus. We had Truffles and Eggs, Salmon Benedict w/ Caviar, Antipasti Platter, great bread, excellent Italian wines.

Sorry, I don't care about some lame reviewers experience. The 4 people who commented all disagreed with him. The reviewer commented about a Pizza place that still serves grilled pizza that's been closed for months. Check your facts before writing an article. That's what you get paid for.

I've eaten pizza at Fornino several times now, and I've had the pizza at Campo de Fiori twice. For what it's worth, I prefer Fornino's. It's got the thin, crispy crust I like the best. It's also got a bit more flavor going on, I think. Campo de Fiori's is quite good, though, and the staff are very friendly. Ultimately we're only talking about dough, cheese, and tomatoes... and if a restaurant makes the effort to use good examples of these three ingredients, there's no way the customer can lose. So I think people should lighten up about pizza.

benchmark - short ribs benedict & responsibly raised meats

get fresh - delicious, fluffy pancakes & local, organic food

For a more intimate dinner and/or great happy hour: Fonda. If you haven't been you should check it out asap. Really friendly owner/manager (?) and amazing flavorful food. Happy Hour 5-7 M-F will get you $5 deceivingly strong and delicious Sangria in huge glasses (after 3 you'll be wasted) and $5 guac and a bunch of other stuff including $3 beers I think.

For a fun dinner: Bogota, hands down. Never a bad meal. And the Mocequa is to die for when its cold outside. Those new sauces they are bottling now and serving in the beginning with the plantain chips are tops too.

For lunch delivery: Press 195 because of their huge menu, consistently great sandwiches, delicious salads, etc. They need to bring back the lunch special though.

Also Bierkraft has great sandwiches for a quick low-maintenance stop off. Try the brisket.


After everyones done with all of this food talk I'd also like to recommend Pongo Power to put your asses back in shape
