Corto is an Italian-inspired cafe in Bed-Stuy serving coffee, sandwiches, and salads. Two reviewers praise the espresso, one calling it top tier and fairly priced, and another describes the cappuccinos as truly delicious. Food mentions include focaccia sandwiches, danishes, and a bundt cake, though one reviewer notes the sandwiches are meat-heavy, pork in particular. A shakerato appears in the reviews as well. Seating includes a sidewalk terrace out front and a small garden in the back with more seating and a wine bar. Visitors describe the atmosphere as comfortable and not stuffy, and one reviewer calls it a good spot for a small bite and remote work. The shop gets busy, and accounts of service are mixed, with warm words for the owner alongside complaints about dismissive baristas.
