Place is self-service for water/putting away dishes, they just bring you bread and what you order. There's usually seating available and their covered outdoor space is cute too!

They had a five-spice duck radiatori special once and I'm waiting for the day they'll bring it back!

I'm not a huge pasta girl - so my main orders from here would be the gem salad with grilled chicken. The grilled chicken is VERY GOOD with a great char and my body craves this weekly. The gem salad is very simple but with the freshest ingredients and this Dijon lemony dressing (don't quote me as I am just guessing) but seriously everyone should try this at least once in their life! The fettuccini pasta with mushrooms is also a repeat order for me. I would love to try some of their daily special pastas one day. They sell fresh pasta and sauce as well for takeout! Never ate here but I've delivered and picked up.

I haven't tried them all, obviously -- too many coffee shops -- but what I have tried, and come back to, over and over, is the products of the amazing team at Posto. It's not just about the skillfully made drinks or the balance of flavors, the fresh, Italian-style coffee or the filled-to-order Italian donuts and Maritozzos (iykyk) -- it's the overall ambience. You come here to put down the screen and enjoy the moment. So often do we rush through our coffees, or even bring them to meetings, at the beck and call of the city's hustle. But at Posto the kind, talented, customer-first team asks you to slow down and escape all of that, to savor every sip of coffee in the classic Italian style. Walking in feels more like a poem than a cafe. Gone are the transactional, disingenuous "how are you's" and instead you get to discover all sorts of fun barista (and bar) creations, Tuscan products, and fresh pasta. The servers and owner are always read to provide a recommendation, and like in Italian cafes, they bring whatever treats and drinks you land on to you. (My favorite aperol spritz is also from Posto.) Outside, the peaceful garden hosts two large umbrellas. It's vibrant, as if you're in a neighbor's backyard and they are willing to share a colorful moment with you, birds chirping overhead. As I finished the last drop of my cappuccino this morning, I realized that forty-five minutes had passed, and every sip of coffee was just as good as the last. Thank you!

The calamari and shrimp were perfectly crispy, although I wish the portion included more than two shrimp. For drinks, I ordered the Lavinia, and it was excellent--a refreshing blend of tequila, lime, orange, and a nice touch of honey. For my entrée, I had the grilled pork chops, which were cooked perfectly. The pistachio gremolata added a unique burst of flavor that really elevated the dish. My friends ordered a variety of pasta dishes, which I tried and tasted good, and everyone enjoyed their meals. We ended with dessert and tried both the traditional tiramisu, which was very good, and the budino--a butterscotch pudding with pistachio gelato--which completely stole the show. It was absolutely amazing. Overall, a great dining experience, and I'd definitely return.

Eastern District is a really fun little store for shopping and browsing and the people who work…read morethere are really cool and helpful. This place is definitely one of my go-tos for cheese if I'm in the area - and they will let you taste/sample cheeses that you're curious about. They also often have samples of one or cheeses, as well as samples of other foods, on a display table near where you enter the store. There's also a good selection of crackers, Jams and preserves, beer,non-alcholic beverages. They sell breads from She Wolf Bakery and they often have cookies from The Good Batch. This is a great place to stop in if you're already in the area but if you're not it's worth making a special trip over just to check it out! Chances are you'll find something that you like (and a lot that you're tempted by)

This place is my personal treasure chest of cheeses, meats, and little delights I didn't know I needed until I saw them. The staff is truly wonderful: warm, patient, and impressively knowledgeable. I always arrive puzzled by the sheer number of incredible options, and they always guide me to the perfect picks. Honestly, they know more about cheese than anyone I've ever met, and thanks to them, I walk out with bags of greatness and the promise of an amazing night ahead. And whatever you do, don't sleep on their sandwiches. They're crafted with the same magic touch. A gem in Park Slope, through and through.

Natto has been a staple of my breakfast for years, and I am so grateful I can get it freshly made whenever I want, instead of having to stock up on frozen imported ones. On Chieko-san's suggestion, I also order a box of oyaki (Japanese donuts filled with sweet red bean paste), and I'm very glad I did: the contrast between the crunchy outside and soft filling is so satisfying. They're not overly sweet and make a great snack or small treat with a cup of tea or coffee. I recommend warming them in the oven rather than the microwave for the best experience. All in all, a wonderful experience, with warm and professional customer service. I will certainly be purchasing Sankyodai products again.

I dropped by today to get some Easter goodies, the savory kind. As always, excellent. It's an annual tradition for me to visit around Easter specifically for their Basket Cheese among other incredibly delicious items. This cheese is only out around Easter and sold in a basket. A must try. Here's my list from today (to name a few): Arancini with cheese only? Check. Arancini means riceballs. Roasted Red Peppers? Check. Charred and to die for. Homemade Turkey? Check. I got a divorce from Boar's Head a long time ago. Breadcrumb stuffed peppers? Check Focaccia? Deliciously Checked from my list. Fluffy and light as air with a light tomato sauce coating. Yummy. And so on. I love everything about Caputo's. From their fresh pastas and ravioli to the variety of cheese to their holiday specials. It truly is amazing. If in the area this week, grab the Basket Cheese. You will leave with a full bag and undoubtedly drop more than a few bucks here. Quality over quantity, and they have it all. .

It's the kind of family-run neighborhood business that helps make Court Street special, and it brings a little bit of Italy to the neighborhood. Places like this are truly worth supporting. It's especially important to support businesses like Caputo's right now. Our crooked and corrupt city's decision to reduce Court Street to one lane for cars has made things so much harder for many of these longtime neighborhood businesses. The city is intentionally making it harder to drive, while doing nothing to improve the subways, and actually turning a blind eye on the fact that our subways are getting worse. If we value the character and history of Court Street, we need to show these old-school businesses our support during a time when the city is hurting them.
