    Nicer more upscale diner than what you usually think of for a diner. Very clean and well lit with counter or table seating available and serving up breakfast, lunch or dinner. Food was good, i orders the bbq burger it was grilled perfectly and loved the bacon and grilled onions but it was missing the bbq sauce so i had it on the side, fries were hot and well seasoned and the service was a bit slow taking 30 minutes to get my food and I think my waiter forgot because something else finished taking care of me but sometimes that's the way things are.

    It's in the tourist area. Always packed. Service is spotty. My order had to be adjusted. There were several items they ran out of. It's ok if you want the vibe of a diner.

    A classic American experience in Manhattan near Central Park. It is called Brooklyn Diner but it's in Manhattan. Good service. Comfy booth. Classic dishes. Roasted chicken was a surprise (not tacos or burgers). Delicious, and the portion was huge!

    Multiple soup one of the best
    Chef Pedro R.

    Nothing but excellent food I had simple. I had the cheeseburger deluxe. It was excellent. Everything was really good quality beef used to make the hamburger the matzo bowl soup fresh made from scratch. The amount itself is fluffy. Light and delicious. It was really good and wonderful vegetables in the soup very fresh you can tell fish and chips. It's one of the best my wife I've had. She's still eating it and enjoying it and the weight staff excellence the service very friendly, very attentive ambience. It's a diner. What do you want? It's a nice diner though. You can go in and enjoy a nice New York diner and this is a try the egg cream awesome.

    The food... scrumptious! The service - very accommodating ... maitre d'/ manager - Yusuf and our server Rene... always checks on us and making sure all is going well. The ambience is fun and very alive. Check the place out... you will like the experience....

    Double Stack Cinnamon Bun Pancakes

    Since we thoroughly enjoyed Trattoria Dell'Arte (The Nose) we knew we wanted to get breakfast at Brooklyn Diner. They're also owned by The Fireman Hospitality Group. Walking in we were generously welcomed by the mangers and hostess team and promptly sat at a window booth. We got the Double Stack Cinnamon Bun Pancakes, The Home-run Breakfast (not pictured) and the Nova Scotia Smoked Salmon, Scrambled Eggs & Onions.

    Yum yum and yum. The burger was cooked to perfection and on a gluten free bun too! The fries? Other worldly! Absolutely hands down the best fries ever! I wish I could eat them everyday. Service was friendly and we will be back the next time we are in NYC. The ambiance is typical diner - a bit louder but you're in NYC.

    Smoked Salmon Bagel

    We decided to stop into the Brooklyn Diner USA for breakfast because it was in walking distance of our hotel. It was a great choice because the food did not disappoint. We ordered the pastrami, hash, smoked salmon, bagel, pancake, and sunny side up eggs. The smoked salmon bagel was out of this world. The capers gave it a really good flavor. The service was great and it was a great diner experience. The inside dining room small and quaint but We will visit again when we're in NYC.

    Found this place through inKind. We were told a 15 minute wait to sit, and waited less than that. It is rather loud in here, so I don't recommend if you are easily overwhelmed. Food was good but nothing extraordinary. My group and I all ordered the same. Our server wasn't rude but just did their job. Overheard a manager telling an employee to hurry up in a passive aggressive tone. Not sure if we'll be back

    Chicken pot pie looks good!
    Courtenay O.

    This Brooklyn Diner was only a block from our hotel. We liked the 43rd Street location, so we decided to try this location for lunch. It was a comfortable place to eat. We were seated quickly in a booth for two. Guillermo M. was our wait staff, and he was nice & efficient. I got the chicken pot pie. It was huge and I was stuffed by the time I finished it. It was so good! Husband got a pastrami sandwich. It was not as big as my pot pie, but it was just the right size for him. He was pleasantly full after eating this delicious sandwich. He didn't eat the slaw. He forgot that it was vinegar based & to him it was bitter. We will be back when we visit New York as we'd like to try more items from the menu!

    What a perfect diner experience! It's a little pricey as it's NYC but it was worth it! Warm and inviting staff was excellent. Super cute diner vibes inside. We absolutely loved our food!! So fresh and beautiful prepared. Good coffee too. My turkey BLT with avocado on toasted challah bread was so good! Swapped the fries for a huge arugula salad. Dressings were so delicious! My mom loved her avocado toast and my cousin had the grand slam which he really enjoyed. The fluffy thick pancake looked amazing.

    I was excited to try this restaurant after finding it on InKind! My experience left me lacking. The burger was tiny and made even less impressive by the bun to burger ratio. The milkshake was fine, but the "Famous Cheesecake" did nothing for me. The inside was incredibly noisy--wild what a shrieking toddler does to a place's ambiance--and service was adequate.

    The coziest rainy-day breakfast and a little birthday magic in NYC Rainy mornings hit different in NYC! We stumbled into Brooklyn Diner on 57th just looking for coffee and a quick bite, and somehow found one of our new favorite spots. The service was amazing, the ambiance cozy, and the food was insanely delicious! We shared the eggs any style breakfast with an everything bagel and endless coffee refills, the perfect comfort meal. They even did something special for us (without knowing it was my birthday ) and made our morning unforgettable. It was the perfect start to the day! Warm food, kind people, and that unmistakable New York energy that makes even rainy days feel special.

    Did you like the burgers?

    I thought they were excellent, to be honest. Not your typical diner burger at all

It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water. I would return to Friedman's when I'm in the Herald Square area, or check out one of their other locations in the city.
