Restaurants in Brooklyn

“Lingo was the perfect choice for a special celebration. I brought my daughter here and the night was great. It’s a beautiful space, genuinely warm and personable staff, and excellent Japanese-inflected food with a creative twist.

We did have one miss: the ribs were too fatty for our taste. But here's where Lingo service stepped in. Without any fuss, they took the dish off the bill and were so gracious about it. That kind of hospitality is rare and says a lot about how they run their restaurant.

Everything else was delicious and the vibe was just right for a celebratory dinner. I'll absolutely be back.”

“We come to Williamsburg on a monthly basis and frequent this restaurant when in the area. We like the food, service, and overall atmosphere of the hotel. It’s kept clean as well.”

“One of the best Palestinian food around 10 stars”

“Delicious sushi!! Incredible knowledge and care in every bite. Amazing experience - you can tell they love what they do - every piece of sushi was expertly assembled and presented. The last course was spectacular!!”

“We had a great date night tho ring axe and killing zombies. Nelson is super fun supportive and encouraging. He introduced us to multiple weapons and games which made the hour fly by fast.”

“Staff was super accommodating to our reservation when we needed to add a last minute person. Food was delicious. Vibes of the restaurant were good. Shout out to Natalie, our server that evening! She was great!”

“For us, the food was hit or miss. Right from the start, the Sardine toast was the star of the night, then there was aRazor clam special, which was 50/50... the clams were great, but we didn't prefer the melon taste to the dressing. After that, we had the mortadella and sourdough. Both were very good. Ate that we had the snap pea salad and the mitake mushrooms with garlic fudge. Again, both were excellent. It was the mains that just fell apart for us. The bucatini had slices of squash on top that were dry, and a bit too much basil, which overpowered the dish. Other than the basil, it was lacking in flavor. The other main was the hake and risotto. While the risotto was heavily citrussed, almost too much so, it was still tasty, but the fish, again, lacked flavor/ seasoning/ salt. Overall, the meal was a 3.5, but we bumped it to a 4, because worth the omission of the mains, it could have been a 4.5-5.”

“The food was so delicious (that salad and fish in lettuce wraps were my favorite) and also beautiful. Loved the ambiance and the cocktails too! Definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu.”

“Authentic Thai cuisine, fun atmosphere. and wonderful owners and staff - well worth the trip to Carroll Gardens!”

“Best pasta I’ve had since visiting Italy. The paccheri with pork shoulder ragu is something I’d come back for. Loved the vibe of the room as well. The wait staff gives you space to enjoy your meal and you don’t feel rushed at all.”

“Excellent service great ambiance and excellent food!”

“Stopped by on a lazy Sunday afternoon and ended up enjoying one of the most comforting meals I’ve had in a while. The tortilla soup completely stole the show — rich, flavorful, perfectly thick, and packed with crispy blue corn tortilla pieces in every bite. Honestly wished they had a bigger bowl because it disappeared fast.

Tried the bean & epazote tetelas on the side and they paired so well with the soup. Also shared the black bean avocado tlayudita and chilaquiles — both fresh, satisfying, and full of flavor. The chilaquiles do get a bit pricey once you add the extras, but the taste made it worth it for us.

Came around 2 PM on a Sunday and still found outdoor seating easily, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and unhurried. Great food, warm atmosphere, and one of those places you leave already thinking about coming back to.”

“Creative fun dishes and bev list.”

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!”

“Really enjoyed our meal here! Some really stand out dishes, incredible service, and super intimate space.

Some dishes did fall a bit flat (specifically a fish dish that needed a bit more acid to balance it out & desert was a bit underwhelming), but the standouts really stood out to make this a meal worth coming back to. A personal favorite was the Dashi presentation in a wine glass & incredible wagyu beef. Excited to try their next menu!”

“We visited 6 Restaurant this week and couldn't be happier with our experience! The atmosphere is warm, and cozy, a perfect spot for any meal.

We chose the 5-course tasting menu with the wine pairing and thought it was an excellent value for the amount and quality of food and drink. Every course was delicious, but our favorites were the Lobster Ravioli, Atlantic Cod, Pork Schnitzel, and Scallops.

We'll definitely be back to try the Maitake and Lamb dishes next time. Highly recommend!”

“Wow! 🔥 This place was absolutely incredible.

The food was beyond delectable—every dish was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. And honestly, the food deserves to be mentioned twice because it was just that good.

The service struck the perfect balance between warm, welcoming hospitality and true professionalism. The atmosphere is the ideal blend of chic and rustic, creating a cozy yet elevated dining experience.

We had a small mix-up with our reservation, but the manager handled it graciously and quickly got everything sorted out, which made an already great experience even better.

Part of me wants to keep this gem a secret, but it’s too good not to share. Then again, I don’t think they’re hurting for customers—they were completely packed on a Monday evening, and after dining here, I can see exactly why.”

“My husband and I have been going to Daphne’s since we moved back to Brooklyn. While food and service have been excellent without fail, Jackie is who keeps us coming back month after month. Her warmth, kindness, and knowledge are unparalleled, and we can’t imagine having a better time at dinner with anyone else.”

“I don’t know why this place is so slept on for dinner. Had our last minute anniversary dinner here and it blew us away. Food was balanced, fresh, rich. Spectacular. Falafel! Steak! Grilled beans!

Excellent all around. Will be back.”

“Great Thai restaurant in downtown Brooklyn fort green park.”

“Amazing food and service. 1000% recommend.”

“Great food and very friendly staff!”

“5 stars are not enough to tell you how good this place is. We've been staying in the Franklin Guesthouse (hotel adjacent to Madre) for a couple of nights and decided to give Madre a shot - boy were we in for a treat! Firstly, shout out to Armando, who made us feel immediately welcomed with his warmth and energy! For food, we got the Frutti di Mare, Croquetas, Brussels Sprouts, Cornbread Madeleines (compliments from chef) and Chicken - massive MASSIVE props to Chef Bryan and his very talented team. To say that they cooked "well" would be the understatement of 2022. They absolutely blew our minds with top quality medley of ingredients, depth of flavor, and masterful execution in every way. Cocktails were fun and delectable, which added the perfect "pop" to the culinary rocket ship that Madre served up. Just when my wife and I were ready to call it a night, Chef Bryan and Armando were kind enough to bring out the Pot de Creme for us, which was the bow and ribbon on this very special dinner. My only regret of the night was not having enough stomachs to enjoy more of what Madre could serve up. We will definitely be back! Thank you, Madre!”

“cameriera italiana con capelli corti. scortese e molto maleducata. non tornerò piu. non ha saputo ne servire il cliente oltre al fatto che dovrebbe farsi un corso di corretto italiano prima di parlare con un cliente in quel modo. pessima pubblicità al locale. peccato e mi dispiace ma non tornerò più.”

“Tasty, imaginative cocktails, great atmosphere, nice food.”

“💯👌 Drinks ✅ Food ✅ Vibe ✅”

“Great setting, creative and sensual cuisine, great wine list.”

“Amazing food and wine. Excellent service!”

“Cobble Hill is famous for its diverse and interesting restaurant scenes. So this is exactly the place that is devoted to this reputation. The place is the corner shop that is cute and cozy inside, but during warm season, it offers quite a spacious outside seating area. As for the food, despite my general dislike of omelets, I fell in love with their crayfish omelet, this is a definite a must-have item. Also, I really enjoyed their chicken liver pate, frog legs, and swordfish. Although duck fat potatoes were not bad, you can easily skip it.
So this is definitely a place where I want to come back and try more of their dishes.”

“Had a group dinner for a friend's birthday and absolutely LOVED the place! The ambiance was so cool and I could have stayed there all nice. Friendly attentive service. Great neighborhood spot!”

“The sandwich’s are priceless. The wait is worth it sometimes lol.”

“Always a pleasure! Food is delivered QUICK and ready with a Quickness when we pick up ourselves. Big Fans of the Royal Greens bowls and Limesalt is a household fave! Happy its here!”

“One of My Favorite Cafés
This place has such a great vibe—cozy, relaxed, and always welcoming. The baristas and staff are super friendly, and even the other customers make it feel like a little community. I stop by most mornings for my espresso, and it never disappoints. There are a bunch of cafés nearby, but the coffee here really stands out. Easily one of the best in the area!”

“Family environment. delicious food and better service. I prefer to order my food in Spice and Grill”

“I went to this store and I tried the “ diamond sauce” it was soooo good ! Finger licking good! I usually ask for extras in case the sauce runs out lol! Omg I will buy it every time I go to this store! You should try it !”

“The sandwiches were delicious and what really impressed me was the customer service. I ordered the S3 Fireman and thought the chipotle chicken was shredded chicken mixed with chipotle sauce. I didn't realize it was actually a shredded chicken chipotle cold cut. I love cold cuts, but unfortunately I can't have them at the moment, so I asked if it would be possible to substitute grilled chicken instead. They were so nice and made me a whole new sandwich. I felt bad, but they were very understanding and took care of it without any attitude.

I come here from time to time whenever I'm in the neighborhood. I live in Downtown Brooklyn which isn't that far away, but it's also not close enough that I can just walk a few blocks to grab a sandwich. One thing I really love is their extensive menu. They have all kinds of sandwiches, wraps, breakfast items, and smoothies so there's always something new to try.”

“I’m always going there first thing in the morning before I go to work. Staff respectful and friendly.. great service All day..👍🏾”

“The food that I received from this deli was incredibly delicious. Moe was very kind and he talked to me and made me feel comfortable while I was doing my purchase. I recommend coming to this store.”

“Real and tasty mexican tacos served in an authentic and unpretentious place. If you want to try real flavors, give it a try. The owner and the staff are friendly and professional.”

“So this store have everything you need from food and personal items from medicine, hand soap and toothpaste and much more things you will need in your household. And let’s not forget about the food, it’s amazing as well. The cook is friendly and accommodating.Leo is amazing and have good customer service and he make you smile and make you happy with his great personality. When you come to this store you would feel welcoming.”

“One of our favorite family restaurants! We keep coming back because the food is always consistently delicious and prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The pizza is absolutely amazing — definitely one of our favorites! The service is always warm, welcoming, and very friendly. What we appreciate most is how much they genuinely care about their customers and always make sure you're happy and satisfied with your meal. Great food, wonderful service, and a comfortable family atmosphere. We always enjoy coming here and would definitely recommend it!”

“EVERYTHING……they are very professional and an expert in their field of work. I’ve been going to LGVB for years and they have NEVER disappointed me or my family. Anything you want they got it and make sure your vision is reflected thru whatever product you purchase. Betsy and Roy are the best along with their entire staff.”

“I was actually skeptical at first because I’ve been to a lot of delis where the bread is stale, the ingredients aren’t fresh, or they’re just trying to get rid of old food. But this place definitely proved me wrong.

The sandwich was so good! The bread, meats, and cheese were all fresh, and you could really taste the quality. Everything was made perfectly, and I didn’t have any issues afterward. It was just a really good, fresh sandwich.

Also, shout out to Adam at the register. He was very friendly, welcoming, and had great customer service, which made my first visit even better.

I honestly thought I was going to save half for later, but it was so good I ended up eating the whole thing in one sitting. 😂 I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Very convenient option in the neighborhood for all kinds of food. I’ve tried their various restaurants over time and the quality is always consistently good!”

“SOOOOO GOOOOD GREAT SERVICE TELL EVERYONE THIS IS A HIDDEN GEM AMAZING STAFF AMAZING FOOD & ATMOSPHERE REAL VIBE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥GO CHECK THEM OUT !!! Chicken platter my favorite ❤️”

“Great food also great music!”

“Delicious Diner.

Exactly what you expect when you picture a diner. No frills, cheap, and exceptionally average food. It gets the job done, with the kind of gritty atmosphere you’d expect from a place that’s been serving neighborhood regulars for years.

I had the cheeseburger, while the person next to me was chowing down on chicken parm and spaghetti. The cheeseburger tasted like it came straight out of the freezer. It reminded me of the kind I used to get at the bowling alley as a kid.

10/10 recommend. Will return.”

“Great every time. Everything is beyond menu description.”

“this place is cute!!! took my friend there for her bday. we loved the spanish mackerel and the ricotta! tip: if you get the ricotta there is no
need for the sourdough, the ricotta comes with a few slabs of focaccia

server was also very sweet. good spot!”

“Garden was lovely on a Saturday night. We all had the tasting menu and there was NOT ONE MISS on any of the dishes. 9 courses, two desserts to share and a little extra amuse of delicious gazpacho to start. Service was attentive and very friendly. The Chefs creativity was on point with amazing flavor combinations and inventiveness without being too over the top.”

“Celebrated my birthday here best experience ever hospitality was amazing”

“Food is yummy! My go to place in Brooklyn! Coda is excellent and the flatbread are also yummy! The Sangiovese red wine on tap is also nice! Highly recommend and make reservations in the weekend”

“repas poisson excellent et canolli extra”

“The staff was very helpful and the dishes were amazing”

“If you like pickles, the vegan Chicago dog is the best hotdog in the city. It’s better than any dog I had in Chicago. I feel silly for paying $9 for a hotdog, but it’s very good and does come with a bag of chips. All this place does is hotdogs, and they do it well Updated from previous review on 2026-08-02”

“Excellent!!! Food, service, atmosphere 👍👍”

“Went to Meadowsweet restaurant for dinner with my family. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were so attentive, helpful and nice. The food amazing!recommend this restaurant! We will be returning soon.”

“I have visited the Allentown location several times. The food is always great, but what’s even better is the feeling of warmth the staff and owners emit. Everyone has always been so incredibly kind and attentive. Excellent food and service!”

“EXCELENTE SERVICIO MUY ATENTOS, SALUDOS DE KEYLA B FOSTER”

“Serious flavor. You gotta make plans to come here my love. I had the Mercato. The collard greens? Savoryyy! The red lentils? Spiced to a sophisticated perfection! Don’t get me started on the zesty freshness of this injira. I didn’t know it would be this good but I’m so glad it was, I can’t believe I haven’t been here before; but TRUST and believe- I will be back with a vengeful hunger to try more menu selections.”

“The space is configured like a film set: you are in some backwater honkytonk in a remote outpost in Thailand in the 70’s. Psychedelic Thai music along with some disco blares loudly beneath the flickering lights, corrugated metal awnings, advertisements for beer, Fanta, god-knows-what hair care products — it actually looks like a sort of Thai bodega. Leaning forward from your antique movie theatre seat and peering into the downstairs you see large glass jars illuminated with red light. Some Mephistophelian herbal concoctions. On a large screen plays some grainy indifferent Bruce Lee knockoff from the 70’s. You get the picture….”

“We had a great time. Food was excellent. Came out pretty fast. Good drinks. Our waiter was really cool and we felt cared for but he gave us the perfect amount of space. The place has a cool vibe, nice people. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. Was a little loud but we could still converse easily. We loved it. Will be back again!”

“I swear my friends and I could live here. We’ve been coming to Madonna almost since their open… for dinner, for the pregame, for the many of birthdays, for the afters. The staff is a huge part of our experience and why it’s always first on our list. The music is always right, the cocktails are delish beyond belief, and the food… don’t get me started on the truffle fries. Trust!!”

“terrific service and food! the Sake Mojito was fantastic!”

“Came here for brunch. I got the BLT and my friend got the Turkish Eggs, and we shared a green salad. I also ordered a Hugo Spritz to drink.

The decor is beautiful and the food is good. The service was fine. My drink was way too flat. I could tell the champagne in it was old. My other issue is with the prices. I paid $25 for a BLT and it came with nothing (I had to order fries separately). I guess the area is kind of expensive but I still think $25 for a plain sandwich is unnecessary (and you can see how small the sandwich is).”

“Delicious food and cocktails”

“The gentleman that waited on our table was excellent! The food was flavorful and delicious!!”

“Great food and staff. Damien was a pleasure to talk to. Great addition to the team. Best of luck to everyone”

“Such a cozy and elegant place with wonderful staff! The Adjaruli khachapuri was beyond my expectations – truly delicious. Definitely a spot I’d love to come back to 🤍”

“Neighborhood gem. Great decor, homey, comfortable but well appointed. I have dined here alone and with family, both times it was a good atmosphere. GM Michael is really good and runs a good staff. The food is delicious- good for all types of diet restrictions. Fresh ingredients well prepared. Last but not least also great cocktails. Host and server were friendly and attentive. I will for sure be coming back here!”

“A meal we'll always remember. Every dish was creative, surprising and absolutely delicious. Wonderful, funny and talented chef. We loved our server. Great bright quirky space. The fresh mozzarella was the best we've ever had. special from start to finish.”

“I recently had a delightful dining experience at Leland Eating and Drinking House in Brooklyn. Starting with a refreshing porter beer from the tap, I then savored the incredible Japanese sweet potato, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The highlight of the meal was the Porchetta Sandwich with ZA'ATAR CHIPS. Encased in their soft and freshly made bread, the sandwich was a symphony of flavors, perfectly complemented by the crispy and tasty house-made chips. Each bite was a testament to their commitment to using high-quality ingredients and crafting memorable dishes. The cozy ambiance of the restaurant added to the overall experience, making it a fantastic place to unwind and enjoy exceptional food. I look forward to returning to Leland Eating and Drinking House to explore more of their enticing menu offerings! 10 star review!!!”

“The BEST SUSHI/SASHIMI I HAVE EVER HAD!!!

Unbelievable flavor combinations created by the chef whonis a true genius, and the fish is immaculately fresh and tasty.

This place is a hidden gem!!”

“Loved the ambience in this great little find! Having traveled to Sichuan province, I can attest that the food really has authentic flavors (albeit kinder to the American palette). The Juju cocktail is outstanding. Would definitely come back to this place try other dishes.”

“Amazing service! The locksmith arrived quickly, was professional and friendly, and had everything fixed in no time. Fair pricing and a completely stress-free experience. Highly recommend!”

“Very good restaurant, highly recommended! !👍👍👍”

“Nice place, good food, great service!”

“Favorite restaurant, delicious food, sublime wine, amazing chefs Robbie & Sam , friendly and welcoming owners, Clement & Simone go above and beyond to make your experience of their gem of a restaurant simply the best! Love this treasure in our neighborhood, make your reservation and try as much as you can on the menu, every mouthful is just wonderful!!”

“Shota is as close to dining in Tokyo as you may find in New York. An absolute dream experience with every detail perfectly tailored to your needs. We recently attended the 3 year anniversary of this Michelin star restaurant and could not have enjoyed a meal more. While it is definitely a bank breaker for most, this is one of New York’s most delicious restaurants accompanied by some of the finest service you’ll find in the city. If budget allows, always go with the sake pairing. It’s a game changer. Love the team here so very much. They treat you like family every visit.”

“Great steak, food will ready very quick!”

“I enjoyed everything they brought out, very delicious, and well seasoned. Very impressed with the meal and the service. Will be coming back.”

“Excellent Sushi ! Would highly recommend. Only wished they had Saki.”

“What an amazing dinner we were participating in. It started with a flower that exploded our taste buds through all the variety of sea creatures and sea plants prepared various ways to a light but scrumptious bread pudding and ice cream made with 3 waters. All the dishes were presented like works of art accompanied in artistic dishes. It was most definitely a wild to table experience. Highly recommend. (only allowed 10 photos. There was a total 13 servings of food and 2 drinks)”

“Best Omakase I’ve ever had 😊”

“Had a great experience at YUU in Brooklyn with my friend Taylor. From the moment you walk in, it feels like you've been transported to Japan—the atmosphere is peaceful, elegant, and incredibly immersive. Every dish was excellent, showcasing outstanding quality, flavor, and presentation. The service was top tier throughout the entire experience. I highly recommend YUU if you're looking for a truly memorable Japanese dining experience.”

“We celebrated our daughters birthday last night. The restaurant was outstanding the revolving menu featured Fillipino and it was seasoned flawlessly. It small in the middle there was a large communal table with individual tables on the side. Place is nicely decorated has a warm feel. The service was was both personable and efficient. Overall , great experience!”

“We had drinks and a light dinner in the lounge. The snack choices were appropriate, delicious and fairly substantial. You can easily just have a great cocktail or turn it into dinner and drinks with friends.”

“Thank you to Malka restaurant if Noya is not here I’m not coming back it’s amazing and incredible I appreciate Noya thank you very much!
I’ll be back again for sure!”

“Perfect if you want to be wined and dined”

“The place is a bit dark but the food is excellent. Quite a few raw dishes just a heads up”

“Lovely place , Nice people , really good cakes. THANK YOuu (with french accens 😉)”

“I’d like to start off this review by saying that I am a Latina woman, who has been to Pokito many times and been treated with nothing but kindness and respect - as such, I felt the responsibility to share my personal experience here having read another review below.

This past Friday evening, my sister and I stopped by Pokito for a drink after a concert. We sat up at the bar, and they were quite crowded but to be expected for a Friday night. Unfortunately, there was a super loud group sat at a table behind us that was making it difficult for my sister and I to hear the bartender, or eachother. Having lived in NYC for five plus years now, I’m no stranger to a loud bar - but this was over the top.

At one point, someone screamed so loud that it startled my sister and I, and we turned to look over our shoulders to see what was going on - It had escalated to the point that my sister and I couldn’t have a conversation a few inches from each other because this group was yelling so loudly. At one point we made eye contact with the loudest person at the table - their review says they apologized to other bar patrons for their noisiness, but they certainly didn’t apologize or acknowledge their behavior to us.

So we felt relief when management asked the group to quiet down. We thanked the bartender for helping make the environment more comfortable so we could carry on our conversations together. Turns out, the bartender was Latino (like my sister and I), so we chatted for a bit. The manager was also behind the bar, who also identifies as a person of color, and was nothing but kind and lovely.

At one point, as the noisy group were leaving, one of them came up to the bartender and had what looked to be a defensive conversation. My sister and I didn’t engage, but I did check reviews because it seemed like they were heated - so when I found their review below claiming that their treatment felt discriminatory, I felt compelled to share my experience as well.

As a Latina woman, I’m all too aware that we live in a world where discrimination runs rampant, and I will be the first to come to someone’s defense. That said, I can wholeheartedly say that this was NOT the case at Pokito when the loud group was kindly asked to leave. It’s a very dangerous and loaded accusation to suggest that a business owner - let alone another bipoc person - is somehow prejudiced towards their customers. After my discussion with the bartender and management, I see them as very fair and warm people, who seek to create a comfortable and welcoming experience for all of their guests.

So long story short - if you are a person of color considering going to Pokito, I would like to reassure you that you will be treated with nothing but kindness and respect by staff (of whom many are also people of color!). That said, if you are loud / inconsiderate/ drunk / obnoxious and infringe on others’ experiences at Pokito, then management may exercise their right to ask you to be respectful for the sake of other guests :)”

“seriously, one of the best, if not the best. I have tried in other states, and still exploring. This is definitely close to making the cut.”

“Don’t let the racist comments deter you from having some of the best food of your life! Will eat here every time I’m in town!”

“Delicioso. Gente amistosa.”

“Excellent donuts yummy. Best donuts I ever tasted!!”

“This is the best pizza I have ever had, nice crisp, light crust with just the right amount of toppings, no grease at all. I live in CT and thought no pizza was better than our New Haven ones, boy was I wrong!!! Looking forward to returning……soon!”

“Súper BUENOS estoy de vacaciones y birrialandia estaba en mi lista 100 % recomendado”

“My beautiful Grand daughter studied for the GMAT there. We enjoyed a delicious sandwich. The bathroom was nice I washed my hands. My beautiful grand daughter took a shot of whiskey then rode a bus LOL anyhoo great time in Brooklyn for all it was also Halloween and this fun loving grandma dressed as a cat. Then I chased my husband Roger around for some fun LOL I recommend coming here during the day esp sundays very nice reminds me of Ireland and I have ancestors there”

“Huge selection of board games. Catan, Wingspan, Coup, Heat, Betrayal, Exploding Kittens to name a few of my favorites that I saw. Shout out to Aron for suggesting some new stuff and chatting with me about pokemon he knows his stuff, super friendly! Also alot of tgc being magic and Pokemon alot of the new sets too. Good vibes and energy here.”

“The BEST sandwich in NYC. Thank you for bringing fresh and homemade foods to Brooklyn.”

“A casual and welcoming Taiwanese spot. I came specifically craving lu rou fan, and the portion size was just right for me—generous enough to be satisfying without being too much. The dish had plenty of flavor and the pork was rich and comforting, but unfortunately, I found the seasoning quite salty. I enjoyed the overall experience, but with a little less salt, the lu rou fan would have been much more balanced and enjoyable.”

“Great food, music and ambience.”

“Employee owned co-op with a sliding scale pricing system for sandwiches. The concept alone is worth a visit.

But the sandwiches will keep you coming back. I got the Lucy and it was 🤌. As the kids say, 10/10 no notes. It was so good that my wife - who was hangry and wondered why it took 10 minutes (perfectly acceptable timing tbh) - no longer wondered why good things take time when she stole the other half of my sandwich. From the bread to the fillings to the ratio, bravo.

I will be back, I will be dragging my wife with me, and we will be pestering the extremely nice staff for their tasty treats. Can’t wait to try the desserts/pastries! What an awesome place to have in the neighborhood.”

“Easy dive to pop into. No fuss establishment that has good drinks and food. My only issue is that every time I order a “medium” burger it comes out aggressively well done.”

“food was good. Checkout and payment were very questionable. Cash ONLY! NO RECEIPT. Unknown amount charged and paid. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE AMOUNT BEFORE PAYING WITH YOUR CASH !!”

“hands down best Vietnamese I ever ate. I would eat it every day.”

“Always a good meal here and friendly staff. Been coming here 30+ years!😅So many of these Italian bakerys, restaurants going by wayside ut’s important to support them!🇮🇹🍝”

“I ate Hardee’s for the first time today. The food was fresh and hot. Customer service was also kind and efficient. I happened to be there with a long time returning customer who moved out of state and remarked “Every time I come home I eat here.” Between the food and customer loyalty, I have incentive to return.”

“This is the 1st time since the 1960's, I have found "Schmaltz Herring" that reminds me of that great oily taste of the "Schmaltz Herring" I enjoyed as a yiubster going to "Rabbi Berenholtz A"H Shul wh8ch was located in East 37th St. and Church Avenue. I plan to find your store nd purchase many additional items for Shabbos Modest, Yom Tovim, and, our base your tasty fish items for Shuls that I attend when making a Kiddush. Rabbi Pinchos Wechter, age 94, from Yeshiva Kol Task of Shul located on East 17th St. near Ave. L will enjoy your Schmaltz Herring in the near future too. I commend you.”

“I HAVE BEEN WANTING BAKE ZITI W/SAUSAGE NOW FOR A WHILE SO I ASKED MY BOSS ABOUT THE NAME OF THE PIZZERIA HE GAVE ME BEFORE I CALLED AND PLACE MY ORDER MUST SAY IT TOOK LESS THEN 30 MINUTE TO GET TO ME IT WAS NICE AND HOT AND TASTY SO WERE THE GARLIC KNOTS ROCKY YOU MADE MY DAY THANK YOU OH AND I CAN'T FORGET THE YOUNG MAN WHO DELIVERED MY ORDER VERY NICE ONE MORE THING IF THE RESTURANT IS ANYTHING LIKE THE DELIVERY SERVICE MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU LOVE THE FOOD”

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CHICKEN AND RICE with Salad. Don't forget the heavenly chocolate Cake. Prices great. Service out of this world”

“Café Brume is a standout Brooklyn spot, and truly home to the best schnitzel in NYC. Brandon and Jennifer are phenomenal owners — welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about creating an unforgettable dining experience. Their Wiener Schnitzel is perfection: crisp, tender, and incredibly flavorful. It’s easily the best we’ve found anywhere in New York. The duck pappardelle is extraordinary as well — rich, silky, and beautifully balanced. Every dish feels crafted with care. Amazing food, warm hospitality, and a cozy neighborhood atmosphere. If you’re searching for the best schnitzel in NYC or simply an exceptional meal, Café Brume should be at the top of your list.”

“So amazing so delicious so clean and nice service with respect thank u for everything”

“Great food and drinks. Service was excellent and bar tenders were very accommodating even when it was busy. They customized some drinks and made suggestions on food.”

“Such a good experience! We got a table outside on a beautiful night right under the Manhattan Bridge. Our server was just wonderful. We had the prosciutto pizza, and it was amazing, and we had the lamb Ragu, that was average. Great drinks too!”

“I use to eat breakfast every morning there . Me and my cousin Buck Wheat were staples there . The service was amazing! I recommend it go there and enjoy”

“Good service,great food.the best restaurant downtown.”

“LOVE NATHANS but they need to incorporate combos (hot dog, fries & drink). Everything is separate.

7/25/26 Update: Still love love Nathan's. We took a couple we met at brunch to visit Coney Island for the first time and to have hotdogs and frog legs. It was a blast!!”

“Had an amazing experience! They are so accommodating and friendly! I can’t wait to go back ! Demmoy was amazing and so welcoming! One of the best experiences Iv had!”

“I have only received 2 boxes so far but overall I really do enjoy the food! I work 12-13 hours shifts so coming home knowing I have a different meal ready each day of the week is very nice considering I can be a picky eater. The variety in the foods is great and I really appreciate the portion sizes. Customer support is also very responsive whenever I have had issues.”

“Love it here. Great views, chill atmosphere”

“Sooooo good!”

“Nice Place Food was fantastic. Oxtail delicious. Highly recommend. Bar Cocktail's are a disappointment. After sending the first Drink back the 2nd wasn't much better. Waitress explained they are prefixed. Please invest in a good Bartender who can make fresh Drinks. Thank you. Would love to come back .”

“Absolutely great food and its presentation amazing. The views, ambience and live piano music wonderful! The service was impeccable. I am a true New Yorker and difficult to please - I am not a tourist - and this is definitely a 5 star must experience restaurant. Thank you The River Cafe for making our dinner truly special and memorable!”

“I had a great time eating delicious food at your restaurant. My waitress name was Toya, she was committed to great service and was very friendly. The atmosphere was awesome and I definitely liked that you have a very modern style. Most importantly, every food and drink on your menu tasted great!”

“Good place, to eat dinner, everything you want and good French wine.”

“This was the coolest and most unique dining experience I’ve ever had. It was also the most expensive I’ve ever done, but by the end I was convinced it was worth every penny and they could be charging a lot more and it’d still be worth it.

I went for my partners birthday and two others were celebrating their birthday and the dessert course (which was insane how good it was) had a candle and they brought little cocktails to everyone and we all cheered to the birthday people by name.

We got the alcohol beverage pairing which I highly recommend. First cocktail is shown here and then a few more of the glasses.

Service was impeccable and genuine. Especially Kiyomi (guessing on spelling), her warmth and kind banter put us at ease and we were talking about her all night.

Truly a special place. Plus the mission is so great!”

“this would be a great restaurant outside of nyc but after eating here makes sense why it was almost empty at 7:30 on a friday night. first, for some reason the AC was off on a summer night, it was so hot! at one point our server kind of went AWOL for like ten minutes after we said we needed a second to decide but i guess it happens and we were able to get someone else’s attention. A few notes on the food: the fluke crudo has a great sauce but you must slice the fish, you cannot just serve a raw filet of fish. the sauce doesn’t get to it and it is hard to slice raw fish while eating. cut the fish! the chicken entree was good but it was overcooked which shouldn’t be an issue with heavily breaded chicken. the poached hake was not cooked enough. the sticky rice dessert was really just rice pudding but was outstanding and the drink selection was very good.”

“Lēlē’s Roman, located inside the Ace Hotel Brooklyn near Hoyt Street, is a wonderful find. The setting is cozy and beautifully designed, mixing retro style with a modern touch. Our server he was professional, friendly, and attentive. The pizza and pasta were excellent, fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic Roman style. A lovely place for a relaxed Saturday lunch , and we will definitely return. Well done Leles Roman!”

“When the lights dim in Liar Lair you know you are in for a great night. The waitress, had a boundless familiarity with the wine list, which made each spore delicious than the last. The tunes soothed me into a sense of security that I hadn't felt since my bathroom trip that very night, which was accompanied by an old timey crackling radio which only added to the washrooms ambience.

Small things make a big difference. And Liar Lair has the small things down to a tee.

Give Geneva a raise !”

“I don't throw this around often, but this was easily one of the best tasting menus I've ever had!!! I’m not even gassing it. Flawless, no misses, no notes! Every course was creative, beautifully executed and packed with flavor combinations I never would've imagined.

Tucked in the back is an intimate chef's counter serving a seven-course tasting menu. Watching the chefs work right in front of you while every course is personally introduced makes the entire dinner feel like a story unfolding course by course. Some of my favs: The Lox, Chicken Wing, Pork Collar + Olive Oil Cake.

If you're looking for your next special occasion dinner or you're just a foodie who appreciates an unforgettable meal add this one to your list. Trust me!!”

“First - this food is incredible. Spent a lot of time in Houston, ATX, MX, and other taco strongholds. This is more than on par with the best of all of them. Also, fast and fresh.

Second - customer service at both locations is top-tier, from the leadership to the front-of-house.

I was hesitant to write this because I loathe waiting in lines and fear blowing up a cherished spot (that’s already famous - you get it), but I believe in giving credit and celebrating where it’s due. And here, it certainly is.”

“My husband and I came here for our anniversary and it was such a wonderful experience. Chef's counter omakase - every piece was unbelievable. Jordan our chef was so lovely. Would HIGHLY recommend and will absolutely be back”

“Love Konban so we had to come try their new restaurant in Williamsburg. The backyard area is so cute and airy, and every dish had a unique flavor. The scallops and gomtang were standouts. They also have a beautifully crafted selection of mocktails. We’ll certainly be back to try everything else on the menu.”

“Excellent food and bloody Mary’s - great staff and bright and airy decor. Perfect brunch and dinner spot!”

“We were a group of 7 that included two elderly parents, a 7 year-old, and a newborn, to celebrate my mom's birthday. Both the hosts and our waiter went out of their way to help us and make this a special dinner for my mom and our family. Every dish we ordered was great, both the preparation and the taste, including the appetizers, entrees, and the dessert. Nothing was too heavy or overdone. Our waiter was very understanding and accommodated the various dietary preferences and restrictions at the table. She helped us with the surprise at the end for my mom. Overall, this was a very positive experience and I am grateful to our waiter for her patience throughout the night. 100% recommend.”

“the place is phenomenal the pizza is outstanding you get treated with love like family once you walk through those doors the cocktails are creative and delicious Caesar salad oh my God but the pizza unbelievable I recommend this place to the world🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕”

“We just happened upon this omakase place as we were checking out the store next to it and I am glad we found it! You won’t find your usual omakase course here. The staff at nozomi (Max, Carlos, Jay and the rest of the staff) seek to give a different omakase experience and in my opinion have definitely come up with unique combinations that I have not seen at other omakase courses! From their yellowtail with vietnamese chimichurri to their pana cotta they have thought up of some delicious combinations! Definitely looking to come back again!”

“honestly this place was amazing! celebrate my birthday and it was the best choice. they made it so special. and food was phenomenal! drinks were fantastic. highly recommend”

“Great food, drinks and ambiance though music was pretty loud. Went for dinner and DJ was spinning good r&b and old school hip hop. Every dish we got was amazing. Muhammara was nutty and sweet, with a lot of depth. Labneh was simple and fresh. The focaccia for the dips came out cold and was doused in oil- so that could have been much better. The grilled chicken skewers were amazing, perfectly tender. And the lamb dish was very flavorful. Overall, had a lovely experience and would come again.”
