A quietly serious Italian restaurant on Flatbush Avenue — handmade pasta and a menu that stays short
Fausto sits on Flatbush Avenue near the edge of Prospect Heights and cooks Italian food with more restraint than most Brooklyn Italian restaurants attempt. The pasta is made in-house and the menu is deliberately short, which means the kitchen is not spreading itself thin. Portions are moderate and the seasoning is precise. The room is spare and grown-up with good lighting and a wine list that rewards attention. It has kept a strong reputation for years without ever becoming a scene, which is a reasonable definition of a serious neighborhood restaurant.
