We were two adults and four kids after a Broadway show. We adults weren't expecting much - but the food was a bit worse than expected. For example, I did not foresee that the chocolate milk for the kids would have a horrible after taste. On the up side, the service was really good. Two members of our party are gluten free, and our server was very kind as we had him running around getting us more information on how the food was prepared, as well as all the other requests we had.

I was very disappointed with The Brooklyn Diner. It was expensive and the food was not very good. I ordered the "Perfect Plate" with a roasted chicken breast. It was a salad with hummus and pita with chicken for $22.95. The chicken was so overcooked and dried out that I had to dunk it in the hummus to eat it. My daughter ordered the Turkey Reuben which she said was not very good and it was $27.95. I won't go back.

Very dissappointing - didn't feel well after meal. We could have gotten better food at a local restaurant where we live.

The menu choices were limited and over-priced. The service was very slow. The restaurant was noisy. There was no bread placed on the table while we were waiting. I ordered a salad. The food was tasty, but not a large portion. The chicken on the salad was dry and bland. My friend ordered mac and cheese with pastrami. There were 2 strips of pastrami spread on top of mac and cheese. The restaurant is located in Times Square and I think it attracts tourists. I felt the price was high for what I received. I would not recommend th... read more

We paid $53 (without tip) for 6 pancakes, 6 slices of bacon, one ice tea and one coffee. I was excited about eating at the diner but it was half full and we waited a very long time for our meals and when I put my fork in the top pancake, it wasn't cooked. I can't tell you how disappointed I was because the server was terrific, the booth cozy, the mood perfect....but after breakfast and my $53 bill, I was ready to come home to my Bob Evans for great pancakes and bacon for $8 a plate.

We arrived at 11:30 and found the place surprisingly empty for pre-matinee Saturday. No waiter for 10 minutes....but, we thought, no worries. We knew what we wanted. We put our order in...and despite flagging him down twice, then another waiter, then a manager...didn't get our burger and hot dog until 12:35. No apologies or considerations offered. We won't be back.

For a restaurant called the Brooklyn Diner, the menu had few choices and none of the best diner foods. How does that happen? The food ordered was quite good, well prepared and tasty. But the breakfast foods, sandwiches, desserts you may expect at a diner are not to be found. Service was also rather slow.
