Craving some savory spinach gnocchi or crisp, wood-fired pizza? Head to Carroll Gardens: Brooklyn’s take on Little Italy. This neighborhood of lush gardens, churches, and peaceful rows of brownstones has been home to a strong Italian-American population and, as a result, plenty of authentic cuisine from Italy and its neighbor Sicily. Read on for the best pasta, pizza, and cannolis in Carroll Gardens.
Best Italian Eateries in Carroll Gardens, BK: Frankies 457 Spuntino
Frankies 457 Spuntino has garnered rave reviews in its ten years of business, and diners pack the place night after night, with one- or two-hour wait times on weekends. Come early for the famous cavatelli pasta with spicy sausage and browned sage butter, meatballs on a sandwich or as a standalone, and sweet potato ravioli with sage in parmesan broth. Grab a seat in the lovely backyard if you can, and remember there’s a version of Frankies in the West Village if you can’t make it to Brooklyn. 457 Court St., 718-403-0033, frankiesspuntino.com
