Dinner for 4 to Gus's

Gus' is a self described neighborhood restaurant serving honest food and wine at the heart of Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens. 

This buzzy chophouse has quickly found footing and favor in Carroll Gardens. Far from the stuffiness of typical steakhouses, the candlelit dining room has its charms, and neighbors are sure to crowd around the bar and order the burger. The kitchen gives a Southern twist to a plate of chicken liver mousse served alongside cornichons and a pile of golden-fried sardines. House-made pastas are spot-on, as in the pappardelle with shredded pork ragu topped with coarse ground fennel or savor the charred cobia collars served over a delicious crab butter. All the while, wine enthusiasts will find plenty to dig into on this finely curated list stacked with star producers from around the world.
