Donna // 27 Broadway, Williamsburg, Brooklyn

When you've done it all in South BK, wind down for drinks at the darling and fresh restaurant, Donna, which stays open until 4 a.m. It's a stone's throw from the Williamsburg Waterfront, With its vaulted ceilings, pristine woodwork reminiscent of a lone Latin-American church, and DJs spinning mostly old soul and R&B 45s, this is a gem.
