Situated right on the water of Red Hook with a nice quiet scenic view of the sound. All flights we ordered were perfectly chilled and of course display cards informing patrons what each was. The staff was so courteous and just made us felt so relaxed. I was not aware they had a private parking lot so next time I'm definitely driving there. This winery is equivalent to most of the wineries out on eastern Long Island and North Fork without the extensive travel. Perfect day getaway for some slippage.

Wow. This might be one of my favorite bars! Open since 1890, it's full of rich history and has…read moreclearly been a neighborhood staple for generations. I'm so glad I got the chance to go. The energy was incredible--definitely the kind of local spot where people come to relax and hang out like it's their second home. The drinks were fantastic, and I loved that they offered such a wide variety. They even had regular hot tea if you wanted something non-alcoholic, plus a whole range of other NA options. The space itself is amazing and surprisingly spacious, with outdoor seating as well. I didn't get to catch the live music this time, but they have it every night! I'll definitely be back :) P.S. It's cash only, but they do have an ATM in the back.

Well, I made the right choice and thank you to each individual who recommended the location. When I arrived, I checked out the tap list and was blown away by the offerings they had.

I got a few different pours, including one of my favorite Canadian breweries (Messorem really needs to get some beer down to Minnesota).

In case beer isn't your thing, they also have wine, cider, and spirits available, plus nonalcoholic options on the menu. The space is excellent -- clean and well lit, with a long bar and plenty of tables for small groups. Furniture and fixings look brand new, and there are a couple of TVs inside. Still, the wooden chairs and tables give a tavern vibe, even with the modern amenities. There are lots of great breweries in the area, but I think Queue Beer is a great spot for a more laid back outing and variety of beers.

I ended up seeing a few of my people and was able to sit w/ them at one of the booths. It was definitely crowded the night I went. Anywho, it's a super cute wine bar. They do a great steak frites & fried chicken sando that I shared w/ three other people. It was great getting to taste everything. They had the orange wine which they loved. I ordered a gimlet, it wasn't the best. That's what happens when your at a wine bar. However, I will not be giving this spot up just b/c of that. I may have been an off night for the bartender. We'll see next time.

It certainly is "mini", but was so comfortable and welcoming. There is a small 4ish person bar, and just a few small tables.

Gersi is a neighborhood favorite. I've never had an issue with a walk in and the food never fails…read moreto disappoint. Upon arrival you're not able to ignore the carefully curated boutique & aristocratic Tuscan vibe. Small chandeliers hang from the ceiling with exposed brick and intricate detailing to keep you cozy no matter what season you visit. Gersi does comfort well. We started with our wine orders, montepulciano and Sauvignon Blancs and an order of bruschetta. They have a bruschetta section of their menu, and we opted for the garlic, chili, & olive oil with anchovies on the side. I didn't realize bruschetta had different variations outside of the classic chopped tomato and basil topping so this felt more like a variation of garlic bread to me. But still perfectly soft and crusty. For our mains, we ordered the spaghetti limone, linguine vagole, and chicken parm alla vodka. The spaghetti limone is a bright dish that captures the sun's rays onto a plate to brighten any day with its glossy lemon and butter finish. The linguine vangole seizes the tastes of the ocean with the saltwater clams cooked perfectly into al dente linguine for a comfort punched light dish (that I still packed home with leftovers). The genius of the chicken parm with substituted vodka sauce instead of marinara stole the show. It was a version of a spicy rigatoni with a perfect chicken cutlet that invited you back bite after bite. This is not on the menu so you specifically have to order it this way, but if you're in the know then you know. This wasn't my first, second, or third time to gersi and I'll continue to be coming back - winter, spring, summer, and fall.

Gersi isn't just a restaurant; it's a genre, specifically the neighborhood Italian cafe.

The food is up to the exacting standard that New York demands of its Italian cuisine. Don't expect a Carbone or Torrisi rival, but don't expect the glittering, nauseating Instagram-fueled hype machine of those places either. This is uncomplicated, unglamorous comfort in the same way a favorite sweater or a long marriage is. Come with your partner, split a bottle of wine, have one of their eight or so nightly pasta specials, and end with the tiramisu. And hey, how lucky are you to live in a place where this kind of delicious joy is a quotidian experience?

On a busy Friday night the sever was Amber and she was very sweet and attentive. We started out with a mixed radicchio salad that was very light. The slight tang of the dressing and the crisp pink radicchio that just added to the right touch of color. The Arancini were petite and perfectly gbd. These are not monsters that you might find at some other local red sauce joints but more delicate and not over burdened with heavy cheese in my opinion. The gnudi with the gorganazola sauce was pretty exceptional. As someone who enjoys making gnudi this more spinach based with an understated amount of cheese and flour to let the spinach and Gorgonzola sauce to make a perfect bite of flavor while still being incredibly light(I make them with more ricotta cheese so this was a little diffent). They also offer some excellent small pizzas that were Neapolitan style. One was a pancetta and cheese which was excellent and the other was a Margherita style with a sweet tangy sauce and fresh basil. Both drizzled with finishing olive oil. The last item was a shrimp and polenta dish that I can only say was amazing and It was with garlic and butter enough said. I ended up scooping the bowl with the pancetta pizza because it was so delicious. As the meal ended our server Amber asked about dessert and the table declined wanting anything but I happened to mention that it was my mothers birthday earlier and as a wonderful surprise she brought out a piece of the Basque cheesecake with a candle and some warm plates and utensils. It gave us a chance to try a wonderful slice of cake that I normally would not have even thought about ordering. The food was excellent but the service from our server gave it the fifth star. This should not be surprising from this group of restaurants . The memories of Prime Meats will remain but this new addition to an old favorite location is so nice to have in the neighborhood.
