This is hands down one of my favorite places to eat in Brooklyn. Not just because my boyfriend and I had our first date here but because the food is absolutely amazing. My favorite dish is the spaetzle and omg it’s amazing. Every time we come here my boyfriend and I order it. The food here is amazing and the prices are great. This place is known for there burger which is also amazing but everything is great even the service would definitely recommend this place.

Been going here for a while. It all started with the beet burger. Revisited it with friends (also old patrons) but it seemed off...more mushy than we previously remembered. And more acidic? (?) And too much goat cheese that overpowered the taste, along with the copious amount of pickles. The sweet potato fries were also kind of soggy, but they are something hard to make, so we give then a pass. The normal fries and latkas were good. I think sticking to the meats is a good idea here. Esp if it's slow cooked. Though, it's a pity about the beet burger...

Excellent small menu. Hamburgers basically in pitas, not buns. The cabbage will transport you. Seafood fresh and super well-prepared. But no half glasses of beer - you're either all in or all out. Go figureIf you eat too much, which is easy to do, Prospect Park is nearby

Beetini was great very different. Burgers also creative and unique. Deep fried in doh. Got to get through the menu a bit before final review. So far so good.

A cool Eastern European restaurant in Brooklyn with interior decoration that reminded me of my Europe trips! The fried burger was really special - never had anything similar before. It was however too meaty and greasy for a non-carnivore like myself though. After a couple bites I felt pretty done? I think the beet benedikt was more for my palate, not too heavy but also has that Eastern European flavor to it!

If the word "goulash" makes you think of elbow macaroni in thin red sauce, you owe it to yourself to come to Korzo and get the real thing. DEEP flavor, hearty gravy, perfect textures. The atmosphere in the place is nice too; quiet but feels like it'd be a great venue for a raucous party full of strangers. Prices are fair, service is great. I'll be back.

Tried this place after being curious about this beer hall pseudo German food hall restaurant. We went on a weekday right when they opened, and they did not disappoint. We ordered a fried fish wrap and their specialty burger, and both dishes including all their sides were fresh and tasty. Service was attentive. Loved this place. Definitely going back!

Not a great experience. The whole restaurant smelled like cleaning agents, and service and food were incredibly slow despite the restaurant have almost no people there. The goulash was not very good, and the grits were somehow both overly dense and had absolutely no flavor. I definitely wouldn’t go again.

Incredible food! The beetini is surprisingly amazing, and the burger is even better than expected. The chipotle mayo made it even better

There's a reason this place has won burger of the year! Delicious apps, $4 house lager pints, and amazing burgers. Meat quality so good you can order it rare. 6 people, 6 burgers, everyone happy. We went because my friend wanted to get another "donut burger" - and I'll never say no to that!
ZERO is the appropriate rating. Coming in to Brooklyn to visit family we were extremely excited to experience Korzo. That excitement was quickly erased when we arrived with our family and were greeted with a rude, cranky waitress who turned us off for good. Sorry we will never experience the Korzo magic but I refuse to give business to a place that makes me feel uncomfortable before I walk in the door. You need to earn respect, and the Korzo staff did not make the effort from the start. From the previous low reviews it seems they do not care what you think and continue to allow the rude, narcissistic red-headed draconian to greet customers with a snarl. Trust the low ratings, there are better places to spend your $$

Unique burger. This place needs visiting at least once. The blend of Eastern European and American cuisine is just awesome. Definitely one of the best burgers I ever tasted. For people lining up at JG Melon, you're wasting your time.

Came here for lunch and their original burger, which was in a deep fried bun, was quite good. Cheese was melty, meat was cooked medium rare as ordered, and bread was crispy. The sweet potato fries weren't the best, I wasn't a huge fan of the cole slaw, and they weren't the cheapest, but solid overall. I'd go back.

Doesn't deserve 3 stars, but doesn't deserve 4 either. Went here for lunch by myself. Got the original burger. Asked for it medium rare. It came out closer to well done. A little bit of pink area in the center, surrounded by brown/grey. Not sure if that's a function of how they cook it - tasted flame broiled, but then deep fried in the dough. Also problematic was the bacon, which was super flabby - if they hoped to cook it by deep frying, that would explain things. I had to remove the bacon, something I don't think I've done in many years. Also problematic is the price - $21 for what I received? No way would I ever pay that again. Perhaps $16, if cooked properly. All that being said, service was excellent. Atmosphere nice. And I can see there other dishes being good. But is that the point of going to Korzo? Seems like everyone gets the burgers ...
