As one of New York City’s most famous locations, Brooklyn has, among other things, many superb eateries to indulge your taste buds. This stunning city borough proves fascinating in various aspects, and restaurants serving tasty bites are far from the only highlights.

This article will explore some of the most notable restaurants in Brooklyn. But first, we’ll share with you some of the lesser-known (and most fascinating) facts about this vibrant part of New York.

Quick Facts About Brooklyn

The first thing to note about Brooklyn is its impressive size. With over 2.5 million inhabitants, Brooklyn would be the fourth U.S. city by population size if it weren’t already a part of the place holding the number one spot on that list.

Brooklyn is administratively located within New York. However, when geography is concerned, the borough falls outside the city proper, as it lies on Long Island. This is, of course, made obvious by the renowned Brooklyn Bridge that connects commuters technically outside New York.

Speaking of the Brooklyn Bridge, the famed landmark also displays some inconsistency, but in this case, it has to do with the dimensions. If you’d measure the bridge’s suspension span on the hottest day of the year and do the same when the temperature is at its lowest, you’d get a difference of up to 16 inches. This is due to the suspension that contracts and expands depending on the temperature.

The bridge also had an unusual reason to shake nearly 150 years ago when 21 elephants marched across it. This unusual parade was instigated by the famed entertainer P. T. Barnum, who decided to take the animals to a circus located on the other side of the river.

Now that you know a bit more about Brooklyn, it’s time to get to our main topic: Where to eat the tastiest dishes in Brooklyn.

A Selection of The Best Brooklyn Restaurants

There are many restaurants in Brooklyn that could’ve easily made our list. However, including all potential contenders would take up much more space than this article could accommodate. For that reason, we decided to narrow everything down and opt for variety.

Lilia

If you love Italian food (and people who don’t are hard to find), Lilia should be your first stop on a Brooklyn gourmet tour. This restaurant specializes in pasta, while also serving delicious sea and land mains. Lilia is located in Williamsburg and counts among the more reasonably priced Brooklyn restaurants.

Purple Yam

Bringing the taste variety and excitement of the Philippines, Purple Yam has been serving delicacies since the late 2000s. The Filipino restaurant earned Michelin acclaim for its excellent national dishes lead by adobo chicken. Best of all, this Flatbush-based restaurant is quite affordable, which means tasting its specialties to your heart’s content won’t break the bank.

Oasis

Jumping back to Williamsburg, Oasis showcases all of the splendor of Mediterranean cuisine. The restaurant serves immaculate dishes that count among the staples of Middle-Eastern cuisine: baba ghanouj, pitas, hummus, falafel, and many others. The dishes don’t cost much, especially when you consider they come in more than generous portions.

The Four Horsemen

“Predictable” is definitely not in the vocabulary of The Four Horsemen. This wine bar doesn’t stick to the same menu for more than a day. You can expect everything from seafood to good old fried chicken in a variety of offerings that will keep those with a sense for adventure coming back regularly. Another Williamsburg location on our list, this wine bar is reasonably priced.

Em Vietnamese Bistro

If you want to enjoy the authentic tastes of Vietnamese cuisine, Em Vietnamese Bistro is the ideal place. Based on seafood like shrimp, calamari, and clams, this restaurant’s menu contains authentic dishes with exciting combinations of ingredients. You can find this affordable bistro in Dumbo.

Victor

Those in the mood for chic yet relaxed dining options will find themselves at home in the Victor restaurant. Here, you can try a different side of the Mediterranean with dishes like mackerel tartar, charred octopus, and squid ink romesco. Drop by to this Gowanus Canal locale for a reasonably priced, mouth-watering meal.

L&B Spumoni Gardens

Wrapping up with a universal classic, we present you with the L&B Spumoni Gardens pizzeria. Order a square piece here with sauce and cheese topping, and you’ll get the opportunity to enjoy a simple but delightful bite. The prices at L&B Spumoni Gardens are reasonable, but the tastes this Gravesend restaurant offers are nothing short of exceptional.

Explore the Tasty Side of Brooklyn

Walking around Brooklyn, you’re guaranteed many charming sights and an overall unique experience. However, if you want to truly get to know this New York borough, make sure to visit one (if not several) of its quality restaurants. You’ll soak up the atmosphere better while having your fill of local and international delicacies.
