Perhaps banking on the longstanding success of Bohemian Hall in Astoria, Queens, Radegast Hall was a hit since the day it opened. This self-styled Central European beer hall named after a Czech beer serves up gastropub fare in two long wooden-table-filled rooms. A retractable roof lets in fresh air as Williamsburg hipsters pound the prohibitively expensive pints ($7 a beer) from Germany and the Czech Republic and gorge on braised rabbit, hearty goulash and pork tenderloin. The grill, however, is the most popular choice. The smoked Polish kielbasa is crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The soothing wood-bedecked interior may take you back to Central Europe, but the prices will keep your mind firmly planted in New York City.
