This tiny restaurant in Ft. Greene is one of the hidden culinary gems of NY. I've been to Abistro a few times, and the food is simply delicious - a rare mix of West African & French food. As a bonus, my boyfriend who is vegetarian had the choice of all the menu items as you can substitute any meat/seafood for tofu. It's also BYOB, which I think is a plus since you can bring what you like to drink for a lot less $$$. There are few tables, and each time I've gone, it was packed, so make sure to call ahead.
Pros: Fantastic food, Moderately priced, Very friendly
Cons: Tiny, books up fast
