Brooklyn Residency Reviews
I visited The Brooklyn Residency and ordered the shrimp tacos—no chipotle sauce or cheese—and they were still absolutely excellent. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful with a perfect seasoning. The tortilla was toasted just right—a balance of crunchy edges and a soft, chewy bite. The pico de gallo was fresh, mixed well, and evenly distributed, adding the perfect pop of brightness to every bite.
Highly recommend these tacos whether you customize them...read full review
The drinks were good!! The music was great. The food and service..... the waitress seemed like she didnt want to work never came by to see how we were. The waffles were tasteless to me and my friend. The wings were just ok. I may try again but I dont know.
I love everything about Brooklyn Residency; especially the shrimp, fish and grits. Now I am not a southerner and usually I do not like grits. But these grits. Perfection. With its Cajun seasoning and sauce and the creamy, cheesy grits?! Amazing. I'm already a repeat offender so I'll definitely return again!
Brooklyn Residency is a lively spot to hang out with friends and family, offering a good vibe and a friendly atmosphere. Their menu is on point, with popular dishes like shrimp and grits, and drinks that are "insane." The talented bartender whips up smooth cocktails, including the Brooklyn Blue crafted by Petrice, which is vibrant, refreshing, and well-balanced with fruity flavors. The food is packed with flavor, with the shrimp cooked to perfection in the shrimp tacos—juicy, flavorful, and well-seasoned—with toasted tortillas and fresh pico de gallo that adds brightness. The shrimp and fish and grits are especially praised, with the creamy, cheesy, Cajun-seasoned grits being described as perfection.
The staff, especially GiGi, provide excellent service with positive energy, making guests feel welcomed and cared for, although some reviews mention occasional lapses in service. Despite some inconsistencies with food quality, the overall experience is enjoyable, and prices are reasonable. The music and drinks add to the lively atmosphere. It’s a place that makes guests want to come back for another visit.
