Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Brooklyn Diner offers a quintessential New York diner experience, perfect for pre-theater meals near Carnegie Hall. Guests rave about the "wonderful food with huge portions," "terrific service," and "fun NYC ambience." Highlights include the chicken pot pie and pastrami Reuben. Though some experiences vary, the diner remains a "go-to" for many.

    Exhaustive menu - all delicious! Francisico and Genevieve and Ata at front desk are outstanding as are all waitstaff. Run - do not walk here. For lunch, dinner or brunch there is nothing better.

    My full rack of spare ribs was excellent. My friend's deluxe bacon cheeseburger was also excellent. The Grubman chocolate blackout cake for dessert was its usual fabulous self.

    This is one of my favorite "go to" restaurants before a theatre or concert event. The food, service and atmosphere is consistently top quality!

    Chicken ‘noodle’ soup came with almost NO noodles. Coffee was served with no sugar. Kitchen was slow. The ‘trainee’ waiter was more attentive, but not by much. We were not really checked on to see if we liked our food. Busspeople more attentive, frankly. An unremarkable experience considering the prices and this is supposed to be a ‘finer’ diner. The Apple Pie was solid. We will not be returning.

    We took a friend along with his spouse to The Brooklyn Diner for his birthday preceding a Carnegie Hall concert. At 5 pm on MLK Day there were many customers, which suited us just fine. The service was good, the food excellent: our guests had delicious spareribs, equally yummy fish and chips (the french fries here are the best); my spouse had a Reuben sandwich (not classic, but tasty), and I had a large salad with chicken paillard and lots of other goodies. Recommended.
