JUVENTINO
Posted by Andrew | Filed under Food + Drink
This Park Slope delight of a restaurant is near and dear to me. In a nutshell, it gives you the kind of meal you’d expect from a fancy-pants Soho hotspot, but without all the pretention. Its warm, country-cottage kitchen environment matches the enthusiasm of its staff.
The farm-to-table food is a unique, delicious blend of New American and Mexican cuisine. This doesn’t just speak for dinner either, it transcends to their amazing weekend brunch as well. Stroller alert, but depending on the person, that could be a good thing.
Juventino is one of those elite restaurants in my life where I can say that I’ve truly never had a bad meal or experience. I love it for the simple fact that you can taste the care that goes into the creation of each dish. Also, the knowledge the staff has behind the food is very impressive and they can always find a brilliant wine pairing for you.
I highly recommend this restaurant for its quality of ingredients, creativity, and warmth.
