Elevated diner experience. And best burger and fries, and Bloody Mary, ever. It’s become a monthly ritual of mine. Great atmosphere for brunch as well as for dinner.

One of the most memorable dinners I have had in Williamsburg, thanks to both the food and the incredible service. Our waiter Benjamin set the tone right away. He came to the table, unrolled white paper, and literally wrote out the menu for us, walking us through every dish with so much detail and enthusiasm. It felt personal, special, and set the stage for the meal to come.
We started with the crudo, which was absolutely out of this world. Fresh, bright, and paired with the most insane garlicky dip in a little ramekin that we shamelessly saved to dunk bread into after. Next up, the Caesar salad. They called it “robust” and they were not lying. As a Caesar purist, I can confidently say the anchovy dressing was perfection.
The sweet corn risotto was probably my least favorite. I expected it to be a little “cornier” (ha) and thicker in texture, but everything else more than made up for it. The brick chicken was a showstopper. However they flatten and crisp that bird, they brick the hell out of it and lock in every bit of flavor into the skin. Absolutely unreal.
And dessert. I did not know ice cream could be this sinful. The Wendy’s Ice Cream Sundae was unreal. Chocolate, cherries, bordeaux. It was decadent, nostalgic, and had me literally drooling at the table.
If you want a dining experience that is both elevated and full of character, Diner is it. Benjamin made the night, the food blew us away, and I am already planning my return.

The kitchen here cooks dishes that taste homemade but better. Their staff delivers exceptional standards. This restaurant won my wholehearted endorsement. This restaurant amazed in every way. We'll probably stop by again very soon.

Always a 10/10 meal for us, and our favorite local restaurant. Can’t go wrong with the burger, but they always have amazing seasonal dishes.

Loved Diner! The old school diner setting is so cool - down to the miniature bathroom and the slanted ceiling. Cocktails were on point, food was delicious, and service friendly. Def recommend!

Total blast from the past. Old-school booths, a little rough around the edges in the best way possible. Sad to see it moving, but happy it’s going to live on in films.

I am glad to see this touchstone of the Southside of Brooklyn still going strong with an adventurous new chef.

Great at any time of day
The flavors here linger pleasantly after each bite. The employees' friendliness defines this place. The kitchen understands contrast and complement. The atmosphere works, the food works and everything else works. I feel confident about visiting again.
