What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

Best Thing I Ever Ate featured a dish from Piattini Ristorante, an Italian small-plates restaurant in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn known for pre-theater and neighborhood dinner service. The name, Italian for little plates, reflected a menu built around shareable pasta, seafood, and antipasti portions. The restaurant operated at 9824 4th Avenue near 98th Street. According to Yelp, the listing was updated in August 2026 and marked the location permanently closed. Food Network's restaurant directory separately listed the business under a closed designation in its Brooklyn coverage. Menupix and other directory sites continued to carry legacy menu pages for the address without noting a successor business. No 2026 source found reported a reopening, relocation, or new operator at the 4th Avenue location.
