This upscale gem is located in an urban oasis—on a stretch of Lefferts Avenue that was recently voted the greenest block in Brooklyn. It is a perfect way to experience New York at its best—mixed, multiethnic communities of people who care. Depending on the time of day, the Q train reaches midtown in less than half an hour. This is not a hipster neighborhood by any stretch, but the food is just as good and Prospect Park is a very short walk down the avenue.
