"Ditch work for an hour on a Friday afternoon and come in for a quick lunch. Order the meatball bosciaola sandwich, sit down, and enjoy. (Bring your laptop with you just in case.)"

"A slice shop in Philly? Dayenu. One with a full bar and pool table? Dayenu. With Brooklyn roots? Dayenu. But the Lord blessed us with all of that and so much more in Paulie Gee’s."

"No reservations but nevertheless good for a group brunch. The trick is to stick to classics like pancakes and not venture too far outside the box (AKA don’t get the shakshuka or mushroom toast)."

"You want the patty melt and fries for the table."

"Skip the brunch menu and just stick to the classics."

"Come for the intimate little sports bar, stay for the garlic soy wings."
