About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
For more than a century, Gage & Tollner was the cornerstone of the Brooklyn restaurant world. Generations of Brooklynites found comfort and community in Gage & Tollner’s magnificent landmarked dining room; generations from now, we want our children and grandchildren to find comfort here, too.

With three longtime friends and celebrated local restaurateurs at the helm -- partners Sohui Kim (chef, Insa / The Good Fork), Ben Schneider (Insa / The Good Fork), and St. John Frizell (Fort Defiance) -- our community-driven team has worked to restore Gage & Tollner to its former glory and guide it into the 21st century. Consistently on The New York Times Best Restaurants List since reopening (2021-2024), our delicious chophouse menu takes inspiration from the Gage & Tollner archives, honoring and elevating beloved longtime classics with meticulously-sourced ingredients and diligent technique.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Sydne Emi Gooden

From the OpenTable editors: A Brooklyn institution from 1879 until 2004, Gage & Tollner was reopened by restaurant vets Sohui Kim, Ben Schneider, and St. John Frizell in 2019 to great acclaim—including a spot on The New York Times's top 100 restaurants list. With classic dishes like oysters Rockefeller and chicken liver paté, as well as a selection of grass-fed, dry-aged steaks, the menu pays homage to the restaurant’s long history. Served in an award-winning dining room anchored by arched mirrors and a spacious dark-wood bar, Gage & Tollner nods to the past while feeling entirely modern (note the teeny 'tinis offered at happy hour).

    We had another really lovely evening at Gage and Tollner. Great cocktails and wine, shrimp cocktail, fried chicken, pork pie. This time I made sure to order the Parker House rolls. I don't know why they are so good but they just melt in your mouth.

    We truly enjoyed our visit to this restaurant, the service was impeccable, the food was great, it was noisy inside, but the ambulance is really nice. We really enjoyed it. I think this is a place to go to to enjoy the surroundings and the service, even though the food is great, it wasn’t over the top, but it was perfectly fine of course. The wine list is really nice and diverse, and their wines are not overpriced.

    What a lovely, old school place (in the best possible way). The service was impeccable. Staff apprehend just when we needed them but weren’t at all intrusive. We had them wrap food to go. They took it and brought us tags that we exchanged for our food at the front door as we were leaving. An unusual and classy move.

    I enjoyed the food but I did feel rushed by my server James. Also, while my mains (Porterhouse and Fried Chicken) were served piping hot, the sides (turnips and hush puppies) were served lukewarm.
