Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Brooklyn Diner Times Square offers a "warm atmosphere" and "attentive service" that's perfect for a pre-theater meal. Known for its "delicious comfort food," highlights include the "Pastrami Reuben" and "matzo ball soup." While prices are a bit high, the vibrant setting and "friendly staff" make it a memorable NYC dining spot.

    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.

    Food ridiculously overpriced for quality which was okay but certainly not special. I assume that's why their empty tables for breakfast on a school holiday. Staff was attentive and friendly

    Amazing experience for New Years Eve! Dinner ran until about 11:30 and then we stood outside for 30 minutes and got to experience the ball drop at midnight! Able to easily exit Times Square at 12:10 and get back to our hotel in good time. Pro Tip: They close 7th/Broadway north of 37th Street so if you're going to book this, stay on the East side of 6th, 5th, Madison or whatever so you don't have to walk down and all the way around. We had to do down to 37th and over and back up past Port Authority to 44th and 8th but the people watching made it worth it! :) Again, a great experience to minimize the cold and didn't get a drop of rain on us! The people here were great from the staff to the managers to the other customers. The band was loud, but fun too!

    Wonderful attentive service. Terrific food-nice varied menu. Portion quite large, I devoured 2/3 of the Patty Melt which was terrific but only able to finish 3-4 seasoned Fries.

    The chicken pot pie is a can’t miss. Coupled with a pea soup started, a great evening of comfort food.
