Best Restaurants for Creative Cuisine in Crown Heights

Very nice place, good food and drinks recommendations, very friendly and knowledgeable waitress Tara. Management staff was very attentive. We love the restaurant and we will definitely come back.

Absolutely fantastic from the moment we arrived until we left. The staff, the food, the service. All of it. Every detail.

Essex food and service were totally on point. Vibe was very mellow, but we were dining on a Sunday night. We shared a burrata flatbread which was very good but the steak was the star. The Porterhouse Steak for Two, which could easily serve three, was on another level of awesome and was cooked to perfection. I've been to all the name steakhouses and this may have been the best steak I ever had. Shout out to Kate, our server, for her excellent food and wine recommendations. Will be back!

The River Cafe is probably the most beautiful and maybe the best restaurant in NYC. The views are stunning and the service without comparison. We had the vegetarian menu which was varied and delicious . There were a number complimentary “ gifts” from the chef in addition to the amuse bouche . The bread was excellent, beet salad was prepared table side , I had the truffle risotto and my companion the simple pasta dish which was also delicious . We both had the signature dessert - the Brooklyn bridge . I can recommend this restaurant highly . It’s expensive but worth every cent.

I had one of the bests experience in a restaurant ever. Gorgeous place, the best service 10/10 food 10/10 I can’t wait to go back. I went with friends. But this place can be a perfect date night too. Highly recommended.
