Amazing pizza, really cool spot without trying to be cool. Nice bar, great cocktails, amazing selection of natural wines, and very good pizza. Their square pizza is their signature pizza, however their round pizzas are great too. They also have amazing salads and calzones. Highly recommend this spot. Oh, tips are included in the bill.

Some of the best pizza in all of NYC. A must visit for anyone visiting NYC. Waits can be long, but you can also grab a picnic table outside and grab a pizza from the neighboring "to-go" portion of the restaurant and typically eat within 30 mins. Great cocktails, beers, wine, and cool scene.

Grocery store
This is the closest large format grocery store near our home. They have all the stables you would expect to find at a grocery store. Parking on the street near the grocery store is never really an issue, however life is made easier at this spot as they have a small parking lot which always has availability.

Neighborhoods
We lived in Bushwick before we bought 664 Decatur. Such a great neighborhood with wonderful restaurants, bars, wine shops, and world renown street art. Start at Troutman and Wyckoff for street art, restaurants and bars and walk around. You can't go wrong.
