    Sometimes the best late lunch is breakfast. We totally enjoyed Brooklyn Diner’s Pastrami Hash with Fried Eggs with toast and housemade preserves for lunch. Great menu and exceptional service and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.

    although the quality of the food was acceptable, quality of the service and the outlandish prices made this an unfortunate choice for us. Mid 20's price for a turkey club and $13 for an order of fries just doesn't cut it (even for NYC). $30 dollars for a pastrami sandwich that was fatty and not even deli style? Go somewhere else!

    The food was great but very very over priced, didn’t think the food quality was worth that much. Not your average diner food prices.

    The greeters and wait staff are the friendliest and most gracious people in NYC! They go out of their way to make sure you feel welcome and are focused on assuring that your order is correct and you have everything you need to enjoy your meal. They go out food is delicious. I have eaten here for breakfast, but have also come for a late dinner. I highly recommend the Brooklyn Diner.

    We ended up getting there about 30 minutes early, so we really didn't need the reservation. This was our first time there, and it didn't disappoint. We got seated quickly. Server was pretty attentive and friendly. Food came out pretty quickly as well. Quality was great, portions were bigger than expected. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.
