Back in Brooklyn doing what I do best: Hang with my son? After a long day of getting here from Chicago, my #2 and I went right to work on our project. Once it was over and in need of a delectable gin martini, Fausto's in Flatbush came to the rescue. This incredible Italian restaurant is making some lovely dishes. My son and me ordered: * Two London Dry Gin martinis that were a perfect timing beverage * Our Little Gem Salad with Red Onion, Marcona Almonds, Wildflower Honey Vinaigrette was delicious * Meatballs with Whipped Ricotta, Basil *Contains Allium, Chili, Egg, and Dairy was scrumptious * Orecchiette with Fennel Braised Pork was wonderful * Campanelle with Lamb Sausage, Rainbow Chard, Spring Onion, Pecorino was great * Olive Oil Cake with Strawberry-Rhubarb Compote, Whipped Mascarpone was a great addition to our meal The service was excellent, the ambience was marvelous and the noise level was very zen I loved this place, especially after a very long day working the load and I Love New York and what it does to me! read more

Fausto delivered one of the best Italian meals we've had in Brooklyn during our last trip. From the start, the shrimp appetizer, Little Gem salad, and house-made focaccia were absolute standouts. Everything was fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and packed with flavor. The wine program deserves special mention. I appreciated that they brought the bottle to the table and offered a taste before pouring, a small touch that elevated the entire experience. The selection was excellent and paired beautifully with the meal. The pastas were flavorful, perfectly cooked, and exactly what you hope for when dining at a restaurant of this caliber. Every dish felt balanced and well executed without being overly complicated. Great food, great wine, and attentive service. As the Italians say, mangiare bene... and we certainly did. Fausto is well worth a visit. read more

Returned a few years later for dinner. Holds up! My boyfriend and I sat at the bar and ordered: + Negroni + Paper plane + Little gem + Tagliatelle with lamb ragu + Orecchiette with pork and kale + Cappelletti with broccoli rabe + Vanilla panna cotta with pear crumble Negroni was great. Best pasta was the orecchiette, followed by the cappelletti. Little gem salad and dessert were the other standouts. Will be back!! read more

Slow service. They brought our appetizers and never brought out our wine. We had to remind them. My daughter's agnolotti pasta was lukewarm. No offer of pepper or cheese for four pasta dishes. I asked for cheese and pepper and they bring out a two inch dish one each of cheese and pepper. That was really odd for an Italian restaurant. There were very young out of touch servers. read more

I really liked the service and ambience at Fausto! I was torn between the tagliatelle and the orechiette and I ended up getting the former. It was very good - not a huge portion size, so hungry diners may also want to share an appetizer. The thing I didn't love about it was the large slivers of garlic throughout that kind of punched through the bolognese. I enjoyed the wine, having tried two of the three red options to choose the one I was going to order, and even though the selection is small, I think the options are good. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in the neighborhood, hands down. I always love visiting here for special occasions - birthdays, anniversaries, any celebration really. Have been here a few times more and loved it every time. Fun to grab a seat at the bar and have a nice solo dinner or a quiet table in the back. The cauliflower salad is a can't miss for me. Perfectly salty anchovy dressing, a nice mix of crunchy raw cauliflower or tender roasted cauliflower. Rockfish with squid ink pasta was a familiar combination but delightful and delicate. Don't be afraid to order a focaccia to wipe the plate clean. And cant go wrong with the classic roast chicken salsa verde with potatoes. Good luck saving room for dessert. But you'll find it in you to at least top it off with an affogato. read more

This was a meal that had no misses for me! Everything was excellent. I got the settanta cinque to drink and it was better than I was expecting, as it was a great balance of sweet and smokiness. I often find that mezcal drinks can be too smoky and overpowering but this drink struck a great balance between the flavors. We ordered the little gem salad to start per our server's recommendation and it was absolutely delicious. For my main, I ordered the orecchiette pasta and wow!! So good. The fennel braised beef was so flavorful and you could absolutely tell that the pasta was homemade. The shape of the pasta also works great for this dish as the cup shape allows you to scoop up the beef all in one bite. Our server did a great job of walking us through the menu and providing recommendations. Overall a great place for date night or dinner with friends!! Make a reservation if you can. read more

Great atmosphere, tasty food. The highly touted whole wheat pasta is interesting and flavorful, but much more lemony than expected. I was happy to experience it once, but I probably would not get it again. The bolognese sauce was super fresh and delightful. The pork chop was very tender, but the accompaniments are just OK. The service was good. I never felt like I was lacking anything, but we were not interrupted much either - just the way I like it. We will be back! read more

Too salty. Too pretentious. Too expensive. Food was all very good, but too salty (and I love salt). Arancini, focaccia, beet carpaccio (the best) for apps were all delicious. Olive oil was perfect, we asked for more. Service is nice. Always around. Checking water and wine. Silverware changed (my fav). Two of us shared dinner: bass and orechiette. (We told them we were sharing and didn't split in the kitchen) but did bring extra plates. I guess that's something. The pork chop was a good size but was raw inside so we sent it back and then it was perfect. Slightly pink and juicy. The crispy potato side dish is wonderful. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Also too salty. Dessert was cherry sorbet (real sour cherries) amazing. And olive oil cake that I did not care for. Would I go again? No. Should you try it and decide for yourself? Yes. PS: they really do open at 5:30 during the week and not a second earlier!! read more

Excellent excellent excellent! Every single part of our meal here was wonderful. Fausto aces the ambiance, sound levels, execution and presentation. Will certainly come back here soon. Notable great dishes we tried: crispy potatoes, arancini, Brussels sprouts, lamb tagliatelle. read more

Great food and service. They have a few outdoor seats for the people who will probably never feel comfortable dining indoors like myself again (I know most people aren't where I'm at, but the continued offering of some outdoor seats is truly appreciated). Our multiple servers were very friendly and helpful. I had the orange wine which was delicious and tasted like juice, and my friend and I started with the focaccia and the arancini. Both were great but the arancini really knocked it out of the park. For ny main, I had the campanelle. It was very tasty, especially with the kick from the spicy lamp sausage. I definitely would recommend it. My friend had the orecchiette - I tried his and we both agreed it was a little salty. But the campanelle was just right and I'd totally get it again. I had gelato for dessert - it was good but I've had better gelato. I think I'd opt for the panna cotta next time instead. I would definitely return! read more

The food was actually average and everything was extremely salty , especially meatballs, it's not good enough to deserve 5 stars and you have to give the whole order at once.Pasta was extremely citrusy, portions of food are not big enough to be shared.Service is ok . read more

Fausto was lovely! We made a res for a party of 4 on a Saturday evening day of, though it was the weekend following Thanksgiving so maybe normally this wouldn't be possible. We ordered a couple apps (cauliflower, arancini, and focaccia) and 4 pastas (pappardelle, paccheri, capellini nero, and chitarra) to share. This was a perfect amount of food. Mt favorites: the cauliflower (loved the anchovy caper vinaigrette) and the paccheri (delicious lemony flavor) I'd say our experience was a 4.5 out of 5 because we had to wait a little while for our table to be ready despite having a res, and the coursing timing was a bit off (we had to wait longer than we waited to between the first and second round of pastas). Otherwise everything was fantastic. Would recommend and would go back! read more

Made a reservation for a large group of 13 people about a month out and had a great night. I haven't been to the restaurant on a normal night so I only have the menu that we were given as reference. For larger tables, they allow you to choose from a three, four, or five course set menu. They have salads, pastas, and mains for you to choose from to curate your own dinner. We first went with the Beet Salad, rice balls, and the cauliflower salad. The Beet Salad was nice, fresh, and seasonal. The rice balls were a nice texture for an arancini, not to soft and not too cheesy. Paired with their homemade red sauce to cut through with a hint of acid made for a great start. The second course we went with a Tagliatelle, the Bucatini, and a Chitata which, paired with a fresh herb and butter, bolognese, and a white sauce with egg. Each pasta was very fresh and wonderfully balanced. Our only complaint was that we wanted more! For the main courses, we had the sea bass and chicken which were crispy and unctous in all the right ways. 5 stars for exceptional service with two young children in the party, responsive emailing with the front staff, and delicious food! read more

The pasta is SO overpriced for the amount you get. They rip you off if you order online. Absolute theft. read more

Fausto - This is a $25 dollar pasta??? - Italian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I came here on my birthday for some fresh pasta and a chill date. I had also specifically searched for a nearby place with Bucatini on the menu, as that is the single greatest noodle known to man. Was not disappointed at all - the bucatini here is absolutely delicious, perfectly chewy, and holds sauce inside the noodle exactly like it should. The pine nuts on top added a great texture too! For such a reasonable price, the food was outstanding and the meal felt fancy. The restaurant vibe is very warm and cozy, and felt both classy and homely at the same time. The service was similarly both very professional and warm. All in all, I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Cute little neighborhood spot. Came on a Friday evening a few weeks ago and it was only half full, which was surprising. Good ambiance and service. Food: Not sure I'd go far out of my way for this place, but I live close enough that I'd definitely go back again. My favorites were actually not even the pasta dishes! Between 2 people we ordered: -House Made Focaccia: this was sooo good. I honestly would go back just for this bread. -Little Gem Salad: I think they switched out the salads. The one I got was more similar to a caesar covered in parm cheese and red onions and it was amazing. Nothing fancy, but for some reason I crave this salad. I hope they bring it back!! -Arancini: I wish it came with more sauce. -Campanella Pasta: this was my favorite pasta. -Bucatini Nero: I normally like clam pasta but there was some herb or seasoning that was super overpowering and I did not like it. However, my fiancé liked this pasta so it's just a taste preference. -Lumache: typical bolognese, but good! -Strawberry Panna Cotta: I loved this. Tasted like the strawberry yogurt with the fruit chunks I used to eat as a kid. read more

The pasta at @faustobrooklyn are all house-made, and they're bomb! I especially loved the mushroom and egg yolk pasta. That whole wheat really hits differently! I think the appetizers and entrees are not as impressive, so I would suggest to really focus more on the pasta for your first visit here! read more

First off, I can't believe this place only has four stars. Dined there Thanksgiving weekend and I was so impressed that I immediately booked a table for a birthday two weeks later. Where to begin! On a menu in which everything sounds outstanding, the house-made pastas are the stars. It was tough settling on just one, but I had the tagliatelle w/ veal bolognese (basically licked the bowl), while my friends had the pappardelle w/ lamb ragu and the whole wheat chitarra w/ wild mushrooms & egg yolk, both of which were just as delicious. In fact, I liked the chitarra so much, I got an order to go and had it for lunch the next day! The cocktail menu provided another dilemma -- they all sounded so good! I had the Paper Plane, a bourbon-based concoction with several other ingredients that sounded fancy and Italian, none of which I had ever heard of in my life. It was scrumptious. Oh, and let's talk about the service for a second... So when I booked the birthday dinner, I mentioned that we were celebrating. As soon as we were seated, a waiter came over and poured us each a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. See, it's touches like that that make people love a place and want to return again and again. read more

Arancini, tagliatelle and the pork shank; ask Nick for his recommendation for the best wine to pair with that. There's your dinner - and it is as good as any restaurant in Brooklyn. Liz and her entire staff provide a tremendous experience every time. I love dining at Fausto! P.S. Check out their periodic wine tastings and wine dinners: always a treat. read more

Had dinner at Fausto on Saturday evening. Our dinner included a single excellent dish, the meal as a whole however was inconsistent. Quality: One dish was great. The Whole Wheat Chitarra, with mixed mushrooms and egg yolk is a star. The flavor combination, the pasta quality, and the texture were perfect. The egg yolk added a nice component as well. I wouldn't run back for anything else we had. The Arancini was decent, appreciated the use of more mozzarella than usual in the dish. The Burrata was a mess, and one of the worst pairings I could imagine. The extremely bitter broccoli rabe overwhelmed the entire dish, and it was a small and unexciting ball of cheese. The Lumache, with wild boar ragu, was okay, but felt like the sauce needed either more sweetness or a bit of heat. Quantity: We ordered the perfect amount of food, the pasta dishes are pretty large. Value: $13 for the Arancini. $19 for the Burrata. $24 for the Whole Wheat Chitarra. $26 for the Lumache. Ambiance: Fausto is an Italian restaurant located in Prospect Heights. The space has an odd shape, which separates the dining room into two sections. There is the larger main area near the front, which is located next to the bar. Then there is a small cove of seating towards the back, close to the open kitchen. The music selection was dance and pop, which felt a little out of place in a more reserved restaurant. Crowd: Reservations are recommended, but you can definitely walk-in on most nights. Service: Friendly staff, the pacing of the meal was very quick. Parking: Decent street parking nearby. read more

We made reservations for brunch on Easter. We arrived and were seated promptly. We looked over the menu and ordered the delicious, fluffy lemon ricotta pancakes. We wanted to try the super thick French toast with apple compote and marscapone cream and they had a new egg sandwich with broccoli rabe and a sofrito. We also order bacon and the home fries. The pancakes were delicious as always with cranberry chutney. The French toast was amazing it was crunchy and a soft custard inside. The apples were perfectly cooked. The marscapone was lightly sweetened. The egg sandwich was very unique with all the different flavors and textures. It was a tad spicy but not over the top! Really amazing! The home fries are crunchy and aioli accompanied perfectly. Also the bacon was amazing.. Coffee here is on point.. Fausto is a great brunch spot they take it to an all new level with the staples of breakfast. Plus, u get the added bonus of some unique dishes. This is a must try! read more

Have been coming here for years, and their food, although always good, had sometimes been uneven. They have streamlined their menu, deleting their weaker dishes, and concentrating on their strengths, particularly their pastas. All of their pastas are excellent, but they also make the best foccacia in the city. Their mains are also good and large. We split an excellent lamb shank, and had leftovers for a focaccia sandwich the next day. The drinks are also excellent, and finished with an excellent amaro. read more

We LOVE this restaurant. We come here for special occasions and are happy every time. The food is wow. Love it. The only thing we didn't like was a pea pasta dish. But so far whenever we've explored the menu we've enjoyed it a lot. The cocktails are really nicely balanced and delicious. I truly have nothing bad to say about the service . Everyone is very attentive, available, and knowledgeable. Ambiance is intimate with a nice glow for special occasions read more

Loved this place! Went with a group of coworkers and was able to try a bunch of things on the menu. We started with the arancini and the pork meatballs. Both were phenomenal although I preferred the meatballs. Next, some veggie-forward dishes: heirloom carrots with homemade ricotta, cauliflower, and poached egg with mushrooms. It's incredible difficult to pick a favorite of these given how great all of them were, but I would say that the carrots were ultimately the winner of the three. The cauliflower was also a crowd favorite, and the presentation of all was beautiful. Next: pasta. We had the rock shrimp with bucatini, the butternut squash ravioli, and the orecchiette with pork. The orecchiette was my favorite BY FAR. Ravioli was a little too sweet for my taste, and bucatini was good but not a standout. Next, we had the roast chicken, market fish, and the polenta. Polenta was my least favorite dish of the night, although I wasn't expecting to love it. Fish was phenomenal, especially the crispy and flavorful skin. Last - dessert. The lemon ricotta cake was forgettable but the chocolate espresso Panna cotta was probably the most delicious thing I've ever tried. Highly recommend. Drinks were good, wish they had a bigger selection of gin (didn't have Hendricks or tanqueray). Best dishes overall (in my opinion) were the orecchiette, heirloom carrots, and chocolate panna cotta, but DAMN what a great dinner overall. read more

This was a solid dining experience, just as high-quality as his restaurants in Manhattan. Every aspect of the experience was high-quality. They have a 90 minute seating policy and we did arrive a little bit late so I know they weren't happy about that. That being said I still think the host and server were quite pleasant and informative when telling us information about the menu. Every dish we had was very clearly thought out with a lot of interesting notes. Even the gem salad, which is usually something pretty basic was so fresh and lightly dressed that we ate every last bit. The beet salad was lovely with the beets perfectly cooked. The broccoli rabe served charred was also definitely a highlight! We tried two different pastas and I was really impressed at how much meat was in the Orechiette dish. It was very bold and flavorful -bordered on a little too salty. The Gemelli however was light and refreshing and very interesting with the alfalfa sprouts in there-perfect spring dish! I also highly recommend the Pana cotta. It was perfectly sweet and creamy. I loved the interesting decor and they had tables very well spaced out. I absolutely plan to come back! read more

I have been dreaming about this pasta ever since I left - can't wait to come back! Made reservations for a Saturday evening. We were seated immediately. The ambience is modern yet intimate and sophisticated. Their menu isn't large, but has all the right things. An eclectic selection of different types of pastas and a few options for those who opt out of pasta. But please, get the pasta here! * Arancini - 4 largely sized risotto balls with a cube of mozzarella inside. So so yummy! * Spring Green Caesar - because you can't go wrong with a Caesar salad. It was a pretty large portion as well, great for sharing! * Gemelli - love love love. The pasta was cooked perfectly and you could really tell all the ingredients were fresh. Not too heavy either if you're looking for a lighter option * Campanelle - also a great option if you like sausage! Pasta was perfect and flavors were great * Panna Cotta - MUST GET. I cannot wait to come back for this. It's topped with honeycomb which gives it the perfect crunch and sweetness Food arrived really quickly, service was on par, and prices are extremely reasonable as well! We were shocked our bill was under $200 including 2 apps, 2 entrees, a dessert, bottle of wine and espresso! read more

As a French in America I find it difficult to find REAL quality restaurants in US, I was delighted to discover Fausto, a hidden gem of an Italian restaurant in Brooklyn. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the cozy, welcoming atmosphere, which was enhanced by the warm and attentive service from the staff. But the real star of the show was the food. I tried several dishes, but the standouts the homemade pasta dishes, which were bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors the one with the mushrooms was a particular highlight, with perfectly cooked pasta that had just the right amount of bite. The meats... unbelievable ! the BERKSHIRE pork chops and the lamb shank were cooked to perfection! Overall, I had an outstanding dining experience at Fausto and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine in a charming and welcoming setting read more

First and foremost our server was great. She was helpful and honest when advising us on our order (both wine and food) and was incredibly professional and approachable. Highlights: Ramp foccacia was amazing- it came to the table warm and had the perfect airy texture. The panna cotta for dessert was also lovely. I got the mushroom pasta which was maybe too heavy for the hot weather but whatever. Please go and support them. Their Covid protocols are top notch too! read more

This is a delivery review, so keep in mind that some dishes don't travel well, I'm sure the dishes are even more excellent if you're able to dine in house. If you're a big eater, the portions are a little small relative to price, but you're paying for quality ingredients. House-made Focaccia: Rosemary, Sea Salt, Olive Oil - strong heavy rosemary flavor, and perfect for sopping up the left over pasta sauce. This was crowd favorite, and despite the fact that we had an extremely carb heavy meal, we all kept going back for another piece of this delightful bread. Not to mention that this travels well. Good thing this isn't something that I can easily pick up regularly, otherwise my waistline would be in BIG trouble. Arancini: Mozzarella, Arrabbiata - The group was ambivalent about the arancini, but please remember that we ordered delivery, so I'm sure it lost some of it's crispiness due to travel times. Flavorwise, the group wasn't impressed by this, and we would probably skip this going forward in favor of extra focaccia instead. Tortelloni: Sweet Potato & Parsnip, Walnut, Autumn Spice, Fried Sage - This is a perfect fall dish, with a lovely balance of sweet and savory flavors. Buttery and perfectly al dente, even when we were full, we kept reaching for just one more piece of tortelloni. Even the carnivores enjoyed this dish immensely. This might have been the favorite pasta of the night. Orecchiette: Fennel Braised Pork, Wilted Greens, Parmesan - while not innovative, this is a satisfying staple worth ordering. The flavors of parmesan enhanced the sweetness in the tender pork and wilted greens. Tagliatelle: Braised Chicken, Arugula, Parmesan - unfortunately, this was one of the dishes that didn't travel well, and was completely stuck together upon arrival. The flavor was lighter than the other dishes, and ended up being one our least favorite dishes. But again, I'm sure it is excellent if you're able to sit in and enjoy Fausto's pasta. Lumache: Veal Bolognese, Parmesan - a satisfying staple that travelled well and warmed the soul. The sweetness of the carrot bits brought out the savory flavors in the Bolognese. This is a great choice for standard eaters, and greatly enjoyed by all. Kabocha Squash: Sage Brown Butter, Hazelnut, Pepita, Golden Raisin - Amazing, sweet and tender enhanced by the crunch of pumpkin seeds and hazelnuts. Generously portioned, and extremely satisfying. Pork Chop: Crab Apple, Fennel Puree, Pickled Mustard Seed - Sadly the pork chop didn't travel well, and was a tad bit on the dry side by the time we were able to dig in. But don't let this stop you from trying it, the flavors are all there, and I'm sure if you can dine in, this is absolutely worth ordering. The fennel puree, pickled mustard seed and crab apples were delicious accompaniments to the pork chops. Olive Oil Cake: Apple Compote - I insisted on this, and was met with quite a bit of skepticism from some of our less adventurous eaters. But upon trying it, it was unanimously enjoyed, though we all actually preferred the cake plain, without the apple compote. Olive oil cake is not as "oily" as the name implies, and is actually very tender, and a bit denser than a standard american cake. It's sweet, but not saccharine sweet, and even after full, we kept slicing "one more tiny piece" to nibble on. All in all, a great delivery meal, and I hope to be able to dine in and fully appreciate the dishes in the conditions that they are meant to be enjoyed in. However, until then, I am more than happy to splurge on these satisfying dishes in delivery form once in a while. read more

Came to Fausto for the first time on date night with my s/o. It was obvious that several of the adjacent tables were also couples on enjoying their 'date night.' And I can see why. The ambience was classy yet comfortable. The food is prepared in an open, spotless kitchen. Our server, Nick, was superstar; taking the time to explain the menu and always making himself available. But the true star of the show was the food. The pasta was outstanding. I ordered the black bass and was blown away. Even the side order of potatoes was out of this world; possibly the best potatoes I've ever had. And our desert, the olive oil cake, was likewise delicious. And I'm not a desert-guy by any means! 5-stars all around. read more

Fausto - benvenuto nel quartiere!!! Not sure what we did without you, but happy you're here! I came here with a foodie friend at the end of the night without a reservation and we were able to be sat right away, which you know is amazing if you've ever tried to book a reservation here. Dranks: We sat down next to a couple who couldn't finish their bottle of wine and immediately gifted it to us. Never one to turn down free wine, we graciously accepted and it ended up being one of the best wines I've ever tasted - the smooth, bold, spicy flavors I've come to love from the wines of Italy. It also happened to be National Wine Day (haven't decided how I feel about all these recently made-for-commerce faux holidays, but this one I can get on board with), so we also ordered a glass of the orange wine. I never had it before, and it was a bit sour, yet refreshing. Nomz: As arancini is one of my favorite things in the world, I of course had to try theirs and it did not disappoint. Also, I'm slightly embarrassed to call myself a food lover and admit I have never had a proper sardine, but this is a great place for a sardine virgin. As with most things, it's all about the preparation, and theirs was delicious. If you're trying to get your veggies in, I recommend the heirloom carrots. Finally, we went for the rabbit bolognese to complete the mind-blowing process. The meal was so good, I wanted to buy the kitchen a round, but apparently they don't do that here. I will also say that my friends in the neighborhood also went and didn't have the same caliber experience, so perhaps they are still new and working out some kinks. However, I would not discount this place... It's the new neighborhood gem. read more
