    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.

    We both had the Classic Pastrami Hash (peppers, onions, potatoes, pastrami) with over-easy eggs, rye toast with house-made preserves, fresh orange juice, and coffee. Absolutely delicious breakfast served by a top-notch staff -- great way to start the day!

    Had their signature chicken noodle soup; delicious. My husband throughly enjoyed his vanilla milkshake and burger. Quick service, food out fast, good value for the price. High quality food for a budget 2 blocks from Central Park
