    Food was good but felt rushed out by the waitress. Person collecting out glasses too at the end nearly knocked my partner over just to collect the glasses. My plate still had food on it when the waitress tried to take it, then took it about 0.25 seconds after I finished. Nice food, poor service just rushing us out when there was hardly anybody even in the restaurant

    We got there early and were seated right away. The server was very attentive and took care of my wife's order which wasn't easy. We finished and walked down the block to the show. Prefect night!

    Excellent food for a "diner". Definitely not diner food, but delicious upscale versions of standard fare.

    We know we can count on quality food and professional service at the Brooklyn Diner and today was no exception. The eggs were done as ordered and made for a tasty omelet. I really enjoyed the house made strawberry jam on my challah toast. Enjoyed our visit there. Not outstanding but close

    The Brooklyn diner is not a place you should go for breakfast. The menu is limited, the prices are exorbitant , and the food was quite bad. First they did not have any regular tea. They were out of every tea except Earl Grey and some green teas. Two of us had scrambled eggs and they were seriously over cooked with more brown than yellow. We ordered a toasted blueberry muffin and it came toasted but cold. While the pancakes were okay, the “ Vermont maple syrup”was watered down. Last point: this is not a diner but instead a restaurant with a very limited ( one page) menu. Skip this one.

    Always a favorite—for locals and tourists—the Brooklyn Diner is a great choice for comfort food. The atmosphere of the Times Square location is much more of a bustle, compared to the flagship 57th St location, but the quality of the food is equally excellent. A great visit overall. Highly recommend the chocolate chip cookie.
