Aspiring restaurateurs in Park Slope should study this convivial Fifth Avenue pioneer. Nine-year-old al di là remains unsurpassed in the neighborhood. Affable owner Emiliano Coppa handles the inevitable wait (due to the no-reservations policy) with panache. The wait is worth it for co-owner and chef Anna Klinger’s Northern Italian dishes. It would be hard to improve on her braised rabbit with black olives on steaming polenta; even simple pastas, such as the homemade tagliatelle al ragù, are superb.

The typical internal monologue when you don't have dinner plans and don't want to cook usually plays out like this: I want something easy. And fast. And delicious. But also kind of healthy? And maybe with a side of mac and cheese? Purbird is the ideal delivery or super casual eat-in joint because it delivers on all fronts. The thing here is perfect, juicy grilled chicken and awesome sides. And possibly the best mac and cheese in the city.
