The brothers behind Little Italy’s erstwhile Bar Martignetti have recast the space as Brinkley's, an attractive take on a neighborhood watering hole, where flattering lighting and a proven location should draw a similar preppy population as its predecessor; there are NY beers on tap and gently priced, locally sourced gastropub bites to go with – from hot dogs and seasonal pickles to monkfish fritters with mushy peas – but it’s really more about the scene here.
