The small mixed meze plate ($16, below) was beautiful and offered six cold meze dishes and a basket of bread.Looking for the best heated outdoor dining in Brooklyn? We’ve got you covered! This comprehensive (and ever-growing) list is your guide to outdoor dining in Brooklyn for any season, but especially this winter since indoor dining is just, well, not available. Dining only as a party of two, we selected the mixed plates to sample more.
OPera on a Monday lunch was surprisingly busy, a sign that the place is hugely popular in the neighborhood. Only those folks who grew up in Brooklyn would say the "view" of Sheepshead Bay was an asset for a restaurant. OPera is probably the least of this, but still describes itself as the largest "Turkish Mediterranean" in Brooklyn, with descriptions of Turkish hospitality mixed in. Each expansive restaurant lining the street might seem gaudy taken as a whole, but inside they are not too bad, welcoming despite the gold upholstery and chandeliers. The restaurant has an expansive full bar and wine list, and must get nice and raucous.Įmmons Avenue in Sheepshead Bay is sort of a different world, it has a faux-glamour all to itself. While not many of the Russian and English speaking patrons having lunch on a Monday were so interested in European football at the time, it was still nice to know the place would be perfect for Turkey's future matches in international play.
Our Monday lunch was surrounded by multiple highlight shows with all the action from Europe that had happened over the weekend, the waiter adding that the turnout for "El Classico" two days prior was very high. Recently, we finally had the chance to come and test the restaurant, finding the atmosphere predicted to be spot on.
Without seeing it in person, it was added to our roundup of the 2016 event. During the European Championships, OPera Cafe & Lounge stood out as a good place to watch multiple screens of football in a vast boozy space, not to mention it opened early and would show Turkey's matches even at 9am.
