There is no place I've found in New York City with an atmosphere like Northeast Kingdom- it's very laid-back, dimly lit with decor reminscent of a ski lodge. The service is good, attentive but not overly involved in your meal. The food is consistently delicious- the macaroni and cheese, spinach and roasted eggplant salad and seitan reuben are all excellent. I've also never been disappointed by their daily soups, like hot and sour with cabbage and roasted red pepper chickpea. Their brunch menu is also very good, but it tends to be very hectic for brunch and service can be a bit slow. I highly recommend Northeast Kingdom- it's worth the trip to the outskirts of Bushwick for a great atmosphere, good service and high quality, well prepared food.
