“Worth it! I got very lucky and was able to go two nights in a row and both nights were amazing. The staff is so friendly and the servers are fantastic (shoutout Mia & Dave)!! Food is amazing. Get the Cabbage - it is phenomenal!!! Also the Ricotta Toast!! Ambiance is also great 10/10.“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“Melissa and James create soul food with modern twist -- with big flavors! I visited P&C multiple times already, with family, friends and work colleagues and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to eat modern American with a lot of love. 🍷🍸🍹Their cocktails are equally amazing and delicious, they also have a fantastic wine selection and their freshly baked Pita is a MUST! Please do go and visit P&C to also support the local restaurant community -- they deserve it! 🥰🍾🥙“

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

“Arriving when it opens, you’ll likely get to sit down immediately at the bar. I’d say it’s a nice place for an evening out but it can be loud, the bar area is very busy and it’s really tight. The food is amazing so we would go back but just with reservations next time.“

“Hart's has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Brooklyn. I arrived right at opening (5:30pm) and was seated at the bar immediately. It's super convenient if you're coming off the A/C. The playlist was great and the vibe was calm and unhurried.

The food is where Hart's really shines. The roast oysters with vermouth butter and horseradish were the standout of the night, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of kick. The savoy cabbage with serrano ham and borlotti beans was homey and comforting. The clam toast with pancetta was deeply savory and something I'd come back for on its own. The seafood rice was the one dish that didn't quite land for me. Not bad, just the least memorable of the bunch.

Highly recommend“

“Everything was great! The lamb chops are fantastic!“

“I came here with my family, we were a party of 15 people! The service was great - thank you Noya and all the other staff! The food was delicious and the vibes were vibing!
The timing of everything was great, the staff came around often but we’re not overbearing at all, it was the perfect balance of coming around when we needed them and giving us our space to enjoy ourselves. Definitely worth every penny. My family is very picky and not one complaint.“

“⸻ “This restaurant is amazing! The food is fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. The service was excellent, and the staff were very friendly. I really enjoyed my time here.”“

“We had a great experience at Dar. The lamb was incredibly tender and literally fell off the bone, making it one of the highlights of the meal. The lentil soup was also very tasty—rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The paella was excellent as well, perfectly cooked and very satisfying.

Our server, Cece, was attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the meal, which made the experience even better. The service overall was great, and everything came out in a timely manner. I would definitely come back again for both the food and the service.“

“Good food, great service“

“Fresh and nice food , and I am a chef ... I was looking for healthy choices at late night and I am very happy now that I found this place.. finally, fresh healthy food at least night and at a reasonable price and generous portions.
Thanks Marcos!!!!!!“

“We ate here whim on vacation from Toledo, Ohio and out experience was amazing! Great service, Great food! Very attentive! Super nice staff!!! Highly recommend! ❤️“

“My favorite spot in my neighborhood in Brooklyn. Made with love. Absolutely delicious food, and everything tastes as if it’s homemade. I truly appreciate the staff too — everyone is always very welcoming. Thank you for all that you do, Dar 525!“

“Our dinner was fantastic with Wancin , our server leading the way along with the cohesive kitchen which was entertaining to watch. We sat at the bar and Wancin made so many combination of cocktails. She was handling the busy crowd so well, she made our night memorable! Along with the view of the bridge and the city added to the overall ambiance. We will back to visit when we are back in the city from California.“

“Delicious food and vibes. Great hookah. Staff and owners are also very pleasant. Laila’s is a great new restaurant that I recommend to all!“

“Finally checked out Fatima's Grill and wow, the fusion concept is super creative! Everything is halal and the portions are massive — we got the shawarma crunch wrap (basically a loaded Crunchwrap Supreme with tender chicken shawarma, fries, and sauces) and a Hot Cheetos asada burrito. The crunch wrap was fun and crunchy, with good spice, and the burrito had that bold, cheesy kick from the Cheetos dust — definitely unique and Instagram-worthy. Also tried the chicken over rice platter; the rice was flavorful and the chicken juicy, though I wish the overall seasoning was a bit stronger/more consistent across the dishes.“

“Incredible food and cocktails! Wonderful service!“

“If you’re in DUMBO, Brooklyn, you have to visit Meatup! The food was absolutely amazing — everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The meat was juicy, tender, and full of rich flavor. You can really tell they care about quality.

The atmosphere was cozy but modern, and the location in DUMBO makes it even better — such a nice area to walk around before or after your meal. The staff were super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

Honestly, one of the best spots for meat lovers in Brooklyn. I’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend 🤍“

“I called the restaurant just to make sure if the places still open. The person answer the phone call I said was what time do you open next thing you know he hanged up on me so rude and that’s not business like with a customer that’s on the phone. I give you zero stars.. Who ever answer the phone 4/18/26 at 8:30. very rude n the phone. I'm pissed off right now..“

“I just had the chicken rice bowl with spinach because I don't tolerate lettuce. Any place that offers spinach as an option automatically becomes some place I'll continue to order from. But when the food is good as well? SOLD!!! The vegetables were crisp. The chicken was flavorful. I don't usually like vinaigrette dressing, but the Greek vinaigrette was so good! I'm very happy!“

“One of the vest restaurants in NYC. The food is amazing and we are keep coming back over Andover.“

“I visited Yummy Tummy bakery for the first time today, with five other friends of mine to support a Black-owned business during Black History Month. The owner Melissa and Kaylan made the entire experience a delight. The two of them made sure we got all of our treats in a timely manner and treated us with such care. The sweets themselves were absolutely delicious. The fruity pebble cupcake particularly was the perfect amount of sweet, moist, and airy. If you’re in the neighborhood, I’d definitely recommend you stop by!“

“I just celebrated my cousins birthday (10/8) with brunch & dessert and Kitchen did not disappoint. I highly recommend. Aknur was nice enough to take a pic for us.“

“Marson’s Cafe in Brooklyn is easily becoming one of my favorite spots — this is my third time here, and I keep coming back for the delicious calamari! The vibe is amazing, thanks in part to the big mural on the wall that really sets the atmosphere. Their Manhattan-style cocktails are top-notch, which is such a treat on this side of Brooklyn. I even brought my son with me, and the chef was super friendly and welcoming. The food is always incredible, and I’m definitely making this one of my go-to spots!“

“This restaurant is definitely one of my favorites! Not only is the food so flavorful and delicious the staff and service is also so wonderful. And when I say the food is delicious I mean literally everything! There is not one thing I wouldn’t recommend. They never disappoint. Even the atmosphere and seating is just so beautiful. The prices are also unbelievably affordable for such good food! This is a restaurant I would recommend to anyone even if they didn’t like Mediterranean food because they have something for everyone and nothing is neglected. Such an amazing place that’s worth many visits not just one.“

“Very good mediterranean food! Everything is super quick and delicious but next time I think I will just ask for less sauce or on the side. I saw the Falafel made fresh and it was full of herbs and spices! I got the build your own falafel bowl with rice and romaine. The toppings all looked great.I would return.“

“I live upstate and I drive 2 hours just to come here and get lamp chops and rice best place ever I will never stop coming here no matter how far I have to drive“

“My dining experience at "Baku Nights" restaurant was truly exceptional. From the moment we entered, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made us feel right at home. The menu offered a delightful array of dishes, each expertly crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every bite was a culinary delight, and I can’t wait to return to "Baku Nights" restaurant explore more of their delicious creations. Highly recommended!“

“The food is great, the atmoshere is Chic Brooklyn! The staff is cool and so is the neighborhood.“

“Every meal here feels worth the time and money spent. Delicious meals with no shortage on quantity. They've paid attention to visual details throughout. The personnel attention breaks the mold of typical service. I've been telling friends not to miss this place.“

“Ushqim, ambient dhe mikpritje fantastike!“

“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!!!“

“I’ve known Queen since they first opened at HoY - the falafel and everything else is still reliably great and delicious.

I also love how calm this place is; it’s cute without being pretentious and this one of the very places I can sit and catch up with friends without having to scream at each other.

Pls don’t change!“

“Excellent food, amazing service and espresso martinis to die for! Go, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Holly Pita was fantastic! The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every bite tasted authentic, and the portions were generous. If you’re looking for delicious Mediterranean-style food with great quality ingredients, this place is definitely worth a visit.“

“We had a nice lunch with our friends from Arkansas. Rafi the owner came over to greet us. He was very nice. We had the eggplant schnitzel sandwich kale salad and falafel platter. The only improvement we could talk about was the outside of the falafel was too hard and crunchy. The service was great. We would go back again!“

“Ordered take out and it was ready within 10min. The chicken pita sandwich was so delicious. And the fries were similar to steak fries, and very plentiful. I ordered from door dash so got a BOGO for fries. The place has some seating, i didn’t spend much time inside but looks like a clean place. Definitely would come back for takeout. The food is a good value. .“

“One of my favorite lunch places. Fresh, healthy, and delicious.“

“We had a great dinner with impeccable service! The menu is not large, but it is creative--Meditteranean with a definite Middle Eastern take. The food was fresh, the bread was warm and the restaurant has a modern but cozy feel. And...there's usually a live theater show just steps away at Brooklyn Art Haus!“

“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!“

“One of the best halal place in Brooklyn“

“They are my go to every time I come to NYC. Absolutely Love the owners, staff and the food. I am so happy I recently purchased a beautiful lamp.“

“Café Mogador is one of those rare places that never disappoints. It has become my favorite spot in Williamsburg — not just because the food is consistently exceptional, but because of the warmth and kindness of everyone who works there.

The staff go above and beyond to create a relaxed, fun, and inviting atmosphere. Everyone is delightful to deal with, incredibly helpful, and friendly.

And the food — every dish and every drink is beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious. In my opinion, Café Mogador serves some of the very best food in the neighborhood. If it were possible, I would happily eat there every evening. Amazing atmosphere and food!“

“I usually don’t write reviews, but I am making an exception for this one just because the guy working there was super kind and respectful about the situation. My friend made a togo pickup on the app and we waited about 15 minutes for his food, and he still didn’t get it, so he went up to the counter just to find out that his order was already ready, the guy working there apologized and explained that he didn’t put it on the pick up shelf because people would usually go in and grab the bag( they probably though that way because when we entered my togo bag was on the shelf, so I grabbed it). He also gave my friend a free drink to compensate for it. I really loved how he handled the situation and was very apologetic about it, so it felt less uncomfortable eating inside the store. Aside from this the food tasted amazing and the portion size was filling.“

“Literally the nicest restaurant ive been to my entire life the people there are so nice the portions are goddamn HUGE the food is flipping awesome man I honestly felt like actually cared for in a restaurant for ones i will one hundred PERCENT visit again shoutout to the cook to the manager to everyone who works there you guys are doing such a great job Probably the best ratings i have ever given to a restaurant LOL anyways much love guys

Cheers“

“Rana Fifteen absolutely blew us away.

A few of us did the Rana Table brunch and we were not prepared. It’s a full family style feast and it just keeps coming. Borek, marinated beyaz cheese, kizartma, artichoke spread, Izmir pine honey with kaymak, soujuk, menemen… dish after dish of incredibly fresh, flavorful Aegean food. All for $35 a person. Unreal value.

This is a unforgettable Brooklyn gem. Get the Rana Table, come hungry, you will not regret it.“
