Café popolari a Rego Park

I ate here last night and last week and couldn’t be happier that we now have a Ruby’s in Williamsburg. I really love the vibe of this location, especially the back room. The food was delicious, as always at any Ruby’s. The classic cheeseburger, Brussels’ sprouts, and fries with truffle aioli are classics for me and always a hit. We also loved the crispy rice bowl and the spicy vodka pasta. It was my first time trying the calamari which was tasty, especially the dipping sauce, but the portion was a little on the smaller side. Another highlight about this location is that it has two bars that you can sit at. The cocktails were great: I loved both the That Cucumber Drink and the Yuzu Jalapeño Margarita. Can’t wait to come back (often). Thank you!

Excellent High Tea! Only issue is service was slow to start, they let us know ahead of time they were running late and they had to seat us 15 minutes after our reservation, that was fine, but then it was another 15 minutes (so 30 minutes after our reservation) before we got any food or drinks, despite giving them our tea order the night before (as requested). So that was disappointing. After that, great! They brought us our food and tea, everything was delicious, and they were very lenient on our leaving time (beyond the extra 15 minutes from the late start), so that was all good. Just wish the start was more prompt!

Nice convenient locations. Tomato and goat cheese Tart was very good as was the Miso Cod and Rotisserie Chicken. Nice wine list and the crème burlee was delicious

Had a birthday brunch here and Avenue was so accommodating with my larger group and the service was lovely. Food was so delicious! Will definitely be going back.

Good traditional breakfast with efficient service. Well done
