Girlfriend's day out in NYC. Made reservation, and they were on time with that. It is so crowded and tight that walking to your table in impossible without bumping someone else. We sat in a two seater table. Family exiting to our right were so misbehaved they knocked over our beverages and wacked us numerous times with their coats....one would think the parent would have helped them out....keeping them free of others....but that would have even been impossible. So, it's winter and COLD, we had a medium purse, down coats and ... read more

This diner is grossly overpriced. The egg cream was atrocious and the service was poor.

Dried out tiny shrimp in the Thai salad. Had to sit next to obnoxious lady who had a service dog which is really not cool in a restaurant. Dog was not in a carrying bag

I am a regular irregular patron of Brooklyn Diner. To me it's overpriced and the food is not very good (although creative and served in abundant quantities). However, it's eclectic and kitsch -- but in a good way. In fact, to me, it's very much like Brooklyn where I was born and live. On this trip I ordered the huevos rancheros which were about as dissimilar to any huevos rancheros I every remember eating, and shockingly heavy. However, I still enjoyed the overall experience and will happily come back for more. Call me a glu... read more

Having gone to Brooklyn Diner many times since 2000 I was very disappointed with my last visit. I was with my wife, we were seated at a table by the bar and 15 minutes later we still were not greeted by a waitperson. The hostess/manager saw this after about 8 minutes took our drink order.Since I was by the bar, and was a bartender for 18 years in NYC, I saw the bartender make the drinks.They sat at the bar service area for another 6 minutes, which was 5 feet from my table.We were very excited to have dinner again at The Broo... read more

My wife and I have going to the Brooklyn Diner for years and have taken many visiting guests. I can only imagine it is under new management has changed. The food was terrible and they now serve polenta with breakfast dishes instead of potatoes. My wife's eggs Benedict were cooked hard and the sauce was served on the side did not resemble hollandaise at all. we will not be going back and it is such a shame as it was a little gem.

Food was decent but very expensive for what we got. The service was terrible. We were seated and waited 10 minutes to get a menu. Ordered a hamburger and had to ask for ketchup. Other tables has ketchup delivered well before the food. Our table was neglected. Other people came in and were seated, and then left due to being neglected.

We went to the Brooklyn diner for breakfast. We both ordered omelets that were quite dry and overcooked. Our toast and English muffins were cold. The host/managers were very nice an accommodating, but the food was not as good as I would have expected from a basic order at a diner. Would not recommend.
