Colonia Verde serves Latin American food in Fort Greene, and it’s ideal for a date night. The dimly-lit space reminds us of a well-decorated cave that sprawls back through a couple of rooms and a greenhouse, finally ending in a spacious garden decked out in string lights. As for the food, Colonia Verde’s menu ranges from Brazilian dishes like picanha served with farofa and a pão de queijo burger to Mexican-influenced tacos and mole. There’s plenty to share, so bring a date and sit in the backyard.

Speedy Romeo is the best restaurant you haven’t been to. Put it on your Hit List and make the trip to Clinton Hill.

Evelina is a Mediterranean spot that feels cooler than most of the other neighborhood restaurants in Fort Greene.

Miss Ada is a small, comfortable spot in Fort Greene with great Israeli food and an outdoor garden in the back.
