Very close to Times Square. Great diner. Food overall very good. Fairly expensive, but it is NYC.

Extremely pleasant waitstaff. W lucked out with a booth since it can be tight seating. I should have looked at menu before we went. I craved matzo ball soup which they did not have. The chicken soup was delicious but $12.50? No corned beef. Pastrami is their specialty. Sandwich with some fries is over $23. Even in nyc, this seemed excessive. No cream soda? The place was jammed and its a Times Square standard for years. Just make sure it's what you want and what you want to pay for it.

I have been to the Brooklyn Diner many times, and find it to be consistently excellent. The staff are pleasant and efficient, the food comes in large portions and is always terrific. It is a calm haven in the bustling Times Square area.

This place has an upscale feel that makes you feel comfortable and at home. The homemade food such as the chicken pot pie and meatloaf are absolutely awesome! The service was fantastic and the drinks and dessert were also good and the location in Times Square made it ideal for before or after shopping/sightseeing. I would recommend making a reservation if you're heading into that area.

Convenient. That's about it. Not great food, but OK. Too busy for good service. And frankly prices that you would be better off paying in a genuinely better restaurant that would require a slightly longer walk. ($22 for basic pasta and meatballs could get you something really tasty at any decent Italian restaurant in the area) There was a surprising lack of some diner basics (like Chicken Fingers of all things) So if you need to minimize walking over everything, then go for it, certainly decent. But if you can walk an extra ... read more

Food was no more the average. The famed pastrami sandwich was good but no where famous. Wine selection practically nonexistent.

We went to The Brooklyn Diner Times Square on a Sunday prior to a Theater matinee. The location was perfect. We had a reservation for 8 and were taken reasonably quickly but put at a space that really was only good for 7. The maitre d' , however, recognized the limitations and said he would add the table for two as soon as the bill was paid. Once that happened, we were fine. I felt the restaurant handled the situation very well. I had thought at 11:30am on a Sunday that we would have a choice of Breakfast or Lunch but they w... read more
