    cute packaging
    Cameron N.

    I was scrolling GrubHub and saw this place and the name struck me as familiar. Then I realized I'd heard an influencer talking about it. Usually, I am wary of what influencers say, but this food looked good and I was finally in Williamsburg to try it, so why not?! I'm so glad I did. I got the salmon box. I have no idea how they prepare the salmon, but it is so flavorful and juicy. I had to stop myself from eating it all at once and having none to eat with my other sides. As for those. The box came with a few tiny lil sides; a little salad, some radish, some purple rice and some brussels sprouts. I also added a sauce for $1 and an extra side of brussels. Everything was delicious and I can't wait to eat here again.

    Chicken nanban

    Ever since I tried homecooked chicken nanban in Japan, I've been eager to find places in the city that serve it. ACRE's version is quite good, and I appreciate the purple rice and salad accompaniments. The space is interesting. The front of the restaurant is basically a home goods/gifts store where you can order your food. After you order and pay, you can sit in the back seating area, where you pick up your food at a counter when your buzzer beeps. So it's not a full-service restaurant, but more of a pretentious cafeteria, lol. It felt a bit wasteful to be eating in and to use disposable trays and chopsticks. It's a good option if you're looking for a casual but homey place to eat a balanced meal. No tap water offered, so be prepared to pay for a drink or to bring your own.

    Such an adorable spot! Would def be a good area to study. So many cute little trinkets at the front where you order as well. Their hochija and matcha are so yummy. salmon bento: 4.5/5 cooked rly well, wish I could taste some more of the miso marinade pork katsu: 3/5 kinda dry and sauce didn't hit as hard for me Nanban: 5/5 I rly loved the chicken karaage and chicken nanban bento!! just so perfectly crispy with addicting sauces Matcha croissant: 3.5/5 yummmmy!! wish they could heat it up slightly

    I love that Acre is a restaurant, cafe, and shop, all in one! Their bento lunch sets are amazing - I tried salmon saikyo-miso and loved all the sides. The salmon was so fresh and tender. Their mango matcha is really refreshing! I am definitely coming back to try more of their menu. They have a bit of outdoor seating in the front, as well as a larger outdoor area in the back. The interior also has a large seating area. The front is the cafe and where small household items are sold. The staff are all so friendly.

    Amazing service & cuisine, especially helpful cafe staff including all who were working that day: Ethan, Reo, and Roman who made me an excellent houjicha raspberry latte!! Comfortable and elevated dining experience with a lovely garden out back.

    Came here on a Friday afternoon after a long day out in the sun. My friend got the fried chicken karaage bento, and I got the salmon bento. They were $25 and $26, respectively. This is a very simple meal, and everything is lightly seasoned. The karaage was crispy with a slightly tangy sauce. The salmon was pretty thin and mostly seasoned with just salt. If I'm ever in the area and trying to eat something healthy, I would come back again! I wish the salmon was a bit saltier and less oily, but it was a good meal nonetheless.

    I love this place! I've been several times and never have any complaints. I'm always searching for authentic Japanese food, having grown up in Japan. They've got great pastries, drinks, and little trinkets in the front. You get a buzzer and can seat yourself in the back - there's indoor seats and outdoor / shed seating. Recently I've gotten the chicken nanban and the egg salad sandwich and they were both very satisfying. Service was great and the ambiance was nice. Love how the owner is actually Japanese too!

    Matcha Loaf
    Mosa H.

    OMG I've been dreaming of this matcha loaf since I got it. It's so strongly of matcha, just the right amount of bitter, and super moist. The hot hojicha latte is also delicious. Really cute modern Japanese interior and a back cafe with seating. I'll have to come back for the bentos.

    Loved the fun summer-y drink options! Had to indulge in the iced matcha mango latte and the chicken karaage bento box for sustenance. Both were delicious and enjoyed in the back garden with a lush view of the plant life and brick walls. It's a self-service place where you get a buzzer and pickup your tray when it's ready. You also can throw away your trash and place the tray in the designated area. It was quite busy as the line went out the door on a Saturday afternoon. However, there were seats inside and out so most people were to-gos.

    When you're in a low appetite mood, a Japanese bento is the right fix ‍ Balanced, not too heavy, and a nice variety of eats. Acre does it so well, serving satisfying meals in a super welcoming, cozy space. Lots of natural light, with both indoor and outdoor seating, and that effortless Brooklyn charm They also sell rly cute home goods too. For the bentos, the sides are all the same with well seasoned protein, rice, salad, pickled radish, and charred brussel sprouts! You'll find me here as soon as the weather warms up. salmon saikyo-miso bento box $24* chicken nanban bento box $23* 입맛없을땐 요런 도시락이 답!! 라이트해서 부담이 덜 되고 반찬도 다양한게 질리지 않고 먹을수 있어서 좋다. Acre가 이걸 참 잘하는데 맛도 좋고 먹을수 있는 공간도 넓어서 편하다. 실내외 자리 둘다 있어서 굳 벤토는 메인만 바뀌고 나머지 구성은 같음!

    karaage bento box

    ACRE sits among the great businesses in Greenpoint's Little Japan neighborhood, appealing to those looking for home decor or a meal. When you step in you'll find yourself in their retail store, with shelves of ceramic bowls, plates, wooden utensils, kind of like a fancier Muji. They also have bottles of sake and some kitchen supplies like sauces for sale. Make your way to the back for their restaurant, and you'll see a generous amount of seating, probably enough for like 40 people or so. There's even a backyard with tables and chairs, a dining area that looks just as large as the one inside, though it was too cold for me to hang out back there. Inside, it's reminiscent of a nice cafeteria, and there's no table service, so I found the $25+ price tag for the lunch sets a bit high. The karaage set came with purple rice and a salad and was pretty tasty, as was the hojicha latte I got to wash it all down with. As charming as the place was, I don't think I'm running back. The portions were too small, but that might be my American appetite talking.

    The food and the vibes are elite. The lines are long, but there are places to sit. They even have an outside portion in the back where you can sit and relax. The food portions are small but very filling. The karaage bento box is worth it as well as the chicken nan ban bento box. Their drinks and dessert are tasty as well.

    I stumbled in here because Radio Bakery had a long line and boy was I THANKFUL for that... The matcha was so incredibly good that it didn't require any sweetener. The pastry was incredibly moist and tasty. And the ambience of the gift shop area was to die for!! It was literally so good here that I ran back the next day for a matcha... I'd love to get lunch here soon.

    TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups…read morewere the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection I was at this unique Guatemalan (ish) restaurant a while back with one of my groups. I said "ish" because the menu has dishes from all over, ranging from sandwiches to BBQ ribs to Guatemalan and Mexican soups. It's out there, and even though not everything works that well, it's fun, and if you can't find something you want to order here, you probably shouldn't go out to restaurants. There was also live jazz music that night, which was loud but nice to listen to. Since it was happy hour, a bunch of us got drinks. I went with a maracuya margarita, which was decent; someone else had a jalapeño margarita, someone had a beer, and someone had a mojito. There were a few nice hot sauces on the table, with the red one reminding me of salsa macha as it had a smoky kick and a spicier green sauce reminiscent of ají verde. They gave us some complimentary blue corn chips and a very mild black bean dip, which was tasty enough and hard to complain about, as it was free. From the appetizers, we got the Hot Figs for $15.95, consisting of honey goat cheese, corn tortilla chips, and plum + pumpkin seeds. This was a unique and fun blend and reminded me more of something you would find in a wine bar. The mix of sweet and salty, with a bit of crunch from the seeds, was nice. This was good, and I would recommend it for a table rather than for a solo diner. There was also The Zingy Salad for $21.95, featuring zucchini spirals, yuzu, tomato, onion, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, and a jalapeño infusion. $18.95. The salad was fine with a bit of crunch and a mild spiciness. It was fine, though a bit wet, for lack of a better word. The best dishes of the night were the soups, which each had its own distinct flavor profile. My sight presence went to the Pepián for $21.95, consisting of chicken, pumpkin/sesame seeds, green tomatillo, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, carrots, chili coban/pasta/guaque, and potato + rice. There was plenty of tender chicken inside, with the soup having a nice roasted flavor with some spice and a bit of sourness. The potatoes and rice on the bottom added more sustenance to this dish. Almost equally delicious was the Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo for a dollar more with shredded chicken, tomato, black pepper, garlic, onions, peas, chickpeas, corn, achiote, chipotle, Monterey jack cheese, and crunchy blue corn tortilla chips. By comparison, this was a bit heartier, with the melted cheese and shredded tortilla chips inside, similar to soups found in Mexican cuisine. While I also liked the mix of veggies a bit more in this one, as it added a bit more texture, I still slightly preferred the flavor of the other soup, as I usually prefer a bit more spice. The rest of the food was fine. The TPC sandwich for $19.95 with chicken, peanut butter, coconut cream, ginger, cilantro, pickled carrots, and lime was fine. For the number of ingredients, I found it a bit sweet, likely from the cream and the peanut butter mix. The bread was nice, but it also fell apart. It came with a nice side salad with a good vinaigrette. The most expensive at $24.95 were the Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs, consisting of baby back ribs with rice and beans. The ribs were almost a bit too tender as they lacked any bite, which was nice, but the sauce was a bit too generic tasting, reminding me of Sweet Baby Ray's or something similar. The rice and beans were standard. This was also OK. Next came some dessert. There was first the $12.95 Rosemary Churros served with dulce de leche & chocolate dips. While I'm not sure if it worked, the rosemary did add a unique smell and a bit of flavor, and at least it wasn't generic. The churros themselves were hot, and the sauces were standard, with my preference being the dulce de leche. I also ordered a Champurrado for $7.95, which was fine. It wasn't as thick as I expected, though perhaps the style is a bit different than the champurrados I rarely buy from Mexican street carts. The chocolate flavor was very nice, though, and I like that it wasn't too sweet. Another person got a $4 Alfajor, which I got a bite of, which was standard. This place is a bit hard to rate. The two soups were wonderful, I liked the appetizers, and I found a couple of the other dishes just OK. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'm not craving to go back. This would be the perfect 3.5, but I'll round up as that doesn't exist.

    On a warm spring day, a group of us headed over from the zoo to try out this restaurant. They had…read moreoutdoor seating, a menu with gluten free options, and good reviews.

There were drinks -- coffee, hot chocolate, and something fruity. They also brought us corn chips and a bean dipping sauce to start -- YUM! I really liked the hot green sauce that accompanied the meal, too. This is a great find!

The setup is a little different from a full-service restaurant. You order at the counter, let the staff know if you're dining in or getting your order to go. If dining in, then find a table and wait for your name to be called. If you're seated farther away, they'll usually bring your food to you. For drinks, it's best to stay near the baristas towards the front of the store since those are typically called out separately. I ordered the Madeline omelette without the jalapeños. It was good overall but it could have used a little more salt. I also tried the matcha latte (which tasted a bit too milky) and I had to add extra sweetener, so I'd probably try a different drink next time. The pastries, especially the apple strudel and Boston cream donut, were both really good. Highly recommend the apple strudel.
