- Price range: $$ ($9-$15)
Black Iris isn't trying to fit in with the crop of trendy bistros popping up all around it; the Middle Eastern restaurant is secure in its reputation as the ''finest Middle Eastern cuisine in Fort Greene'' and feels no need to dress up its bare-bones dining area. The food speaks for itself -- humongous spiced falafel balls, slow cooked lamb, and their signature baklava negate the need for any decorative frills. Families frequent the restaurant for the large, easy-to-share portions.
