Any good places to eat within reasonable walk of the Morgan L that won't be insane on a Friday night? Is Roberta's wait still insane? Momo Sushi Shack?

if you go up to jefferson there are a lot of places. hi hello is good, as is northeast kingdom
― spirited ai weiwei (Treeship), Friday, 26 February 2016 18:23 (eight years ago) link
roberta's will be crazy but they do have the adjacent takeout spot now
shinobi ramen is small but very good, el cortez is good and usually chill early in the night, okiway has p good non-sushi japanese, king noodle is good chinese, 973 for more american stuff
― J0rdan S., Friday, 26 February 2016 18:27 (eight years ago) link
Yeah I have been to Northeast Kingdom for brunch and it was very good. I also figured waits would be long there on a Friday night, although we might go on the early side and I'm guessing bushwick runs late.
― on entre O.K. on sort K.O. (man alive), Friday, 26 February 2016 18:27 (eight years ago) link
all those places are like 0-5 mins from the morgan L... as treeship says there's a bunch of places if you walk further east
― J0rdan S., Friday, 26 February 2016 18:28 (eight years ago) link
faro is at the jefferson stop (so a quick walk from morgan) and is excellent. it looks like any stupid boring brooklyn restaurant but the food is really really good. sort of pasta oriented but more interesting than that sounds. i've been there 5 or 6 times and haven't been disappointed once.
also they take reservations which is rare and good.
― adam, Friday, 26 February 2016 18:32 (eight years ago) link
assuming the menu hasn't changed significantly in the past couple weeks get the agniolotti it was real
― adam, Friday, 26 February 2016 18:38 (eight years ago) link
yeah that place is pretty tight

i like momo
― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Friday, 26 February 2016 19:13 (eight years ago) link
my only prob w/ momo is that it's cash only
the skewer place next to it was disappointing tho
― J0rdan S., Friday, 26 February 2016 19:19 (eight years ago) link
there's a new huge movie theatre/sports bar kinda thing right across the street from roberta's with a menu that seems pretty good for what it is
not only is momo cash only ... http://ny.eater.com/2016/1/25/10827764/momo-sushi-shack-atm-skimmer

wound up needing to not wait and thus had kind of bad pub food at Forest Place, although it was a nice hangout spot and I'd still go back for drinks
― on entre O.K. on sort K.O. (man alive), Saturday, 27 February 2016 04:00 (eight years ago) link
yeah that place is :-/
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 27 February 2016 04:02 (eight years ago) link
that place sucks, cute (if overdone) re-do of the building/site but the food is super meh, the music is autopilot top hits blah and the decor looks like someone went into a spastic episode while trying to imagine what 'arty' people like. honestly the only place over there where i spend money in the evening is tina's 24 hour diner. do keep meaning to see how the moviegoing experience is at syndicated though. fuck all the other new shit though and most of the people that go with it.
― shandemonium padawan (Doctor Casino), Saturday, 27 February 2016 04:11 (eight years ago) link
yeah the food was really bad, like I complained about it bad (they were nice enough to comp the food as a result though). I still thought it was a fine place to hang, maybe nothing special but a comfortable not too lit place where it felt lively but I could still have a normal level conversation.

i went to the three diamond door once when drunk a few months ago, drifting with a cloud of strangers and one close friend. it's taken on a sort of mystical quality in my mind since then, think i'll revisit tomorrow

three diamond door is a nice spot when it's quiet, i can't do it on a saturday night. old stanley's on wyckoff is pleasant. in general i find bushwick bars to be too loud and full of young people, suggestions for chill old dude bars welcome.

anyone fuck with "le garage" off central ave yet? reviews are good but it's tainted by association with maite next door which is super corny (menu-on-the-wall-but-it's-too-dark-read-and-blocked-by-a-chandelier, mason-jar-drink corny).

chill old dude bars died around the time the area's real estate prices shot up. the old dudes now hang in the parks with coffee cups full of beer.

this is like everywhere. new place birdy's for example is just hell on earth when it's busy, but when it's not it's like, hey, this is totally acceptable and not (wildly) expensive and not decorated by a monster.

le garage is not bad, kinda $$$ but i had some confit potatoes with snails and tons of garlic that were very delicious.

i went to the alligator lounge in williamsburg last night and it kinda sucked but you get a FREE PIZZA with EVERY DRINK

They used to own Capones where I dj'd friday nights (and for a while saturday nights too) alldisco and beat club parties and the free pizza was a special treat, even if it smelled terrible. It certainly wasn't Roberta's, but the price was right and at 3am it was fucking delicious.
― dan selzer, Monday, 7 March 2016 04:48 (eight years ago) link
The Charleston has also been doing the free shitty pizza with drinks things for I think at least ten years, but I remember hearing somewhere that Alligator started it. I would read an oral history of free shitty pizza with drinks in Williamsburg.
