"Situated behind an unassuming storefront, the Roman's dining room is one of Brooklyn's most inviting spaces. This is definitely a local hangout, but it's also the sort of place Manhattanites will go out of their way for after seeing a movie at BAM . The frequently changing menu is a marriage between Italian tradition and Brooklyn ingredients—it's cozy and classic, and always seasonal and local. On any given night, the menu might feature paccheri with white beans and kale or celery root Milanese. At lunch, you can tuck into meatballs in sugo or a perfect chunk of crusty bread with butter and fig jam. The chocolate sorbet is the perfect end to any meal." - Andrea Whittle
