Qoo Robata Bar (CLOSED)

Beside the Knitting Factory Brooklyn sits this Japanese grill, a culinary complement to the eclectic sounds coming from next door. Adventurous eaters will appreciate the sundry skewered options, including beef cheeks and chicken gizzards, plus composed items like a poached quail egg wrapped in salty bacon. Another small plate featured crunchy chicken wings topped with crushed sesame seeds and black pepper—a beer-friendly snack. Don’t neglect the entrées: We enjoyed a the crispy katsu pork cutlet with a wasabi-spiked dipping sauce.
