Local Restos Make Eater.com 'Most Underrated' List

While everyone enjoys nabbing a seat at the hottest table in town, there is a certain satisfaction to be found in eating consistently tasty fare at a restaurant that for whatever reason falls beneath the food-media radar.

On Monday, Eater.com released a list of 85 locations across all five boroughs that readers had chosen as The Most Underrated NYC Restaurants. Some were longstanding businesses that have been largely forgotten by a city obsessed with newness, others were new to the scene or simply situated on out-of-the-way stretches. But all of them have cultivated a loyal clientele.

The editors whittled that original list of 85 down to their own Top 20, including Carroll Gardens newcomer Battersby, at 255 Smith Street between Douglass and Degraw, which serves a wide-ranging mix of seasonally appropriate comfort foods using high-end culinary techniques. Think house-made kimchi, veal sweetbreads or pork tortellini with sunchokes, chestnuts and brown butter.

Nearby Boerum Hill haunt , known for its exceptional use of vegetables and inventive salads, also made the extended list.
