The Beach House and Barboncino

The Beach House, Long Beach:

 

Casey our waitress was pretty good. Forgot pepper and sour cream but she is forgiven. The plates are sooooo heavy. Don't know how they manage. Menu is varied and food is good. Menu is

better than food though. Drinks could use more alcohol. All in all, if in the neighborhood I would go back, but only sit outside. Inside is tacky. Bathrooms are not clean.  Had a really good time for our last summer dinner outdoors with Jill and Lenny.

 

Barboncino, Crown Heights:

 

So far, so hipster. Waited at the bar for a table. Cheap pour on the wine. No one asked if we wanted anything else.  Server seems ok. Hot honey as an addition to pizza, copy of Paulie Gee's... Roasted peppers with Buratta and spinach salad with apples and Gorgonzola are very good.  Waiting for soppressata picante pizza. Service still ok. Clear tables pretty well.  Pizza came. Very good! Will come back.  Good meal with my honey!
