Pedro’s
While there are loads of Mexican restaurants in the East Village, none of them quite top the vibe at Pedro’s in Dumbo. Well worth the subway ride, I can guarantee that you won’t be disappointed with your meal there. Being a Friday night, it was a bit packed, but we didn’t have to wait that […]
Vinegar Hill House
Named after a small, largely unknown, area near DUMBO, Vinegar Hill House can be pretty hard to find. It’s quite a walk from the York Street F stop, so I decided to take a cab.

Ruby’s Bar & Grill to close
