I chose the diner because it is near the theater where Matilda is playing and because one of their featured dished shown on the web site is mac and cheese, my granddaughter's favorite. Their mac and cheese was not to her liking; it was too salty with a layer of inedible crust and tasted as though it was made with Parmesan rather than cheddar. The chicken pot pie was delicious, with a nice crust, well-cooked (not mushy) vegetables and chunks of white meat chicken. But again, too much salt was used. Nice waiter.

Servers should write down the order - or else, please be sure to get it right.

Very friendly place!! Good for a quick bite...not crowed at all, but seating was VERY tight!!! Food was ok. I would rather go here for lunch than a dinner. Service was good waiter and staff were very attentive...so try it for lunch or a quick dinner! It was fine for us that evening, we had a show and they were very accommodating. Portions are very generous!!

The Reuben was terrific and a full meal in itself. My companion raved about the Pastrami sandwich. The noise level was high, lots of tourists and young people enjoying the restaurant. I will go back.

Although the Brooklyn Diner has one of my favorite breakfasts in all of NYC (The Mixed Marriage of Irving and Gina) this visit was a big let down. We made reservations to make sure we got a table for breakfast before work, and we were welcomed and started off great. However, the food was not great, the presentation was severely lacking, the service was strained, and for the prices they charge, should have been a better dining experience all the way around. We'll go back, just to give them a chance to redeem themselves, and i... read more
