A Bed-Stuy classic, Saraghina is great for daily dinners or a weekend brunch. They're known for their pizza, but great for everything else, too. The vine-covered garden is the best seat in the house.

Another Bed-Stuy classic, Peaches offers Southern comfort food and brunch every day of the week. Highly recommend the chicken sandwich, but you can't go wrong with any of it!
