About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Good for groups
Charming

Bijan's Brooklyn nestled in the heart of Boerum Hill is Brooklyn's "best secret". We have a cozy, intimate neighborhood feel with a warm wood burning fireplace paired with modern-bistro style cuisine offering a delicious culinary combination of American plates fused with Persian style spices & flare. Creative culinary plates such as the Persian spiced chicken wings leave the palette craving for more. Don't forget the mind blowing craft cocktails. For a great atmosphere, fabulous & friendly service, the staff would be happy to make you something to cure what ails ya!

Food and creative cocktails were outstanding as usual! Bijan's is a favorite when I visit my daughter in Brooklyn. This visit, service was a little slow - probably due to the three large parties in the dining room. We will definitely return to enjoy some yummy eats.

Bar staff was very kind and apologetic. Unfortunately the restaurant seemed to be understaffed both front and back of house which resulted in slow and forgetful service though the restaurant was not full. There seemed to be a manager sitting at the bar most the time we were there (he adjusted the music on the iPad and seemed to be writing scheduling notes) but didn't step up to help the service staff at all - which is where the support was needed. Food and drinks were good, but both were slow to arrive. There was a long wait for the first item, and then once it started arriving, it was one item at a time over the course of ~ 15 minutes.
