Brookland's Finest

Brookland’s Finest is a little bit Mr. Rogers, a little bit Charlie Sheen. Though it’s often crawling with families, this neighborhood joint from John Solomon (Solly’s) and Tony Tomelden (The Pug) also slings stiff classic cocktails and stays open late on weekends. The menu is a real crowd-pleaser, with cheeseburger, spaghetti and meatballs, mushroom risotto and kale salad. Head back the morning after to nurse your hangover at brunch.
