Rolo’s

"Rolo’s takes reservations, but it’s usually possible to walk in with a short wait on a Monday night. The restaurant is popular for its straightforward menu anchored by a wood-fired oven, which turns out polenta breads, charred head-on shrimp, and one of the borough’s best burgers. If you’re looking for something more casual, like fried fish sandwiches and queso fundido, try around the corner, where the owners recently opened Hellbender, a Mexican cocktail bar with a full food menu." - Eater Staff
