Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Boerum Hill

We had a wonderful time dinning here on thanksgiving. Food was fantastic. We got the eggplant appetizer, the butternut squash soup and their signature ground lamb appetizer. The lamb was my least favorite because it was just too gamy for me. I’m middle eastern and eat a lot of ground beef like that but this one just wasn’t one i would ever order again. For dinner i got the bone in fillet which was also wonderful. We had the chocolate baklava and it was delicious. Definitely a great restaurant. I had the Aegean margarita, so delicious.

We love Rossini’s! Old school atmosphere, outstanding service, delicious food. What’s not to love? Always grateful this neighborhood favorite is here!

Unexpected wonderful meal! Great staff, ambience, and delicious food. Elegant, casual dining.

It was so good that we visited two nights in a row. It was a big hit with our 10 year old daughters, who loved the prime rib eye steak and the jumbo lump crab cake. Conveniently located right next to the skating rink at Rockefeller Plaza.

La Ripalle has been our personal family favorite restaurant for the last 10 years. We first discovered this little gem and a piece of Paris while looking for a French restaurant to celebrate the birthday of my twin daughters. Once we entered into the delightful ambience of La Ripalle greeted by owner Alain Laurent we were extremely impressed. The food is delicious and the service excellent. We enjoy especially the special lobster ravioli in cream sauce when it is offered and have had most of the entrees on the menu. But by far the best asset of La Ripalle has been the fabulous and utterly charming Alain Laurent. We love his shouts of “Fabulous!” And the care and execution of the food by him and the staff is wonderful. So I invite you to take yourself down to the west village and experience a piece of France and its cuisine on Hudson street. You won’t be sorry.
