    Baked ziti
    Marina F.

    I got the three cheese baked ziti. It was okay, but I felt like it could be saucier. It had loads of garlic in it, but it definitely wasn't sautéed enough. It felt like I had raw pieces of garlic in each bite. It was just okay. The person I was with got the fried flounder wrap. I feel like it should have come with something-fries, chips, salad. The plate just looked incomplete. We sat for awhile waiting for our check. We didn't know what happened to our waitress so we had to ask someone else for our check after we were waiting for so long. When we left, our waitress was just coming back in the restaurant so she must have been on break or something, but there was no one there to cover our table or refill our waters.

    OHHH My goodness! the noise, the crowd, the pushing you would think they were giving something away for moms and babies my daughter and I needed the kosher so there is Spoons I am not sure I get the name but its cute they have their register counter right up at the front door, so when you come in you need to walk past it which is a bottle neck right there people waiting to pay, people waiting to order, people just standing there waiting for their friend to get her purse. filled with moms and screaming babies I don't get it, and I have multiple kids what kind of nice lunch includes screaming kids? not mine small tables so your right on top of your neighbor slow but friendly service why did I give this place 4 stars? clearly ONLY because of the food nice fresh tasty ceaser salad good muffins its hard to find good kosher the food here is good

    AVACADO - FRESH - PANINI - (EYES BULGING) (TASTEBUDS TINGLING) Spoons is an awesome Kosher restaurant on Avenue J in Brooklyn. Since my office has moved from Manhattan to the last stop on the 5 train in Brooklyn (depression). There is nothing around but Kosher restaurants and Kosher restaurants. I was told by some of my coworkers that SPOONS had the best sushi in the area and that just turned me even more off because the sound of raw anything was never appealing to me. Coming here for lunch one day I decided to order the avocado Panini. --that didn't sound appealing either (I am a straight carnivore) but I didn't want to let my coworkers down because I hardly go out with them (off topic). The Panini was the freshest thing I ever had the pleasure of consuming. Who would have thought that two pieces of bread with no meat in the middle could be the most delicious thing I have ever tasted! It was served with a side of ginger and a small yet pleasing salad. My order would have been only 6.95 but my assertive yet persuasive coworkers forced me to try a piece of their Alaska roll. AVACADO - FRESH - SUSHI - (EYES BULGING) (TASTEBUDS TINGLING) Long story short... I am in love with sushi now! My bill came out to 13.50, a little pricey for lunch but oh soooo worth it. The staff are 100% sweethearts. It does get crowded in there around lunch time but you can always take it to go if you don't want to sit and wait. Overall, I am asking that you give this Spoons a try. I can't vouch for any other location.

    My first time at Spoons but it will not be my last!! For a tiny little cafe, their sushi was exceptionally fresh, creative and delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially the manager Shebah. The selections of coffees and tea are very good. I tasted the espresso and opted for a simple iced latte I had 3 Sushi rolls and each were winners. I especially liked the one with jallipenos. A real winner here. Footnote: Went back the next morning for breakfast. Another great meal. I like my cappuccino dry, so they gave me the shots in a mug and brought me a mug of foam. Perfect!! I had a delicious omelet and made plans for my next part of my vacation. Li and behold it was 11:30 so I decided to take some of their yummy sushi to go. I ate it when I got to Queens and it was just the thing I will always return to Spoons when I visit Borough Park!

    I only get a chance to come here when I'm in NY. I love the fast and friendly service. Food is always excellent and never a long wait. Place is always crowded but always.clean. I've tried their paninis and it's always incredible, the soup the rolls and their salad are always tasty. The price is very reasonable as well.

Food: Smash burger are great, they are not the best but I would rank it as top 5 in the city. I was pretty surprised how they charge for cheese (the place is mostly Kosher, and the Cheese of I remember is vegan) which contradict the concept of smash burgers. The fries were overly cooked if not almost burned, so I couldnt eat half of the basket. Service: ordering regular fries and getting trufle fries just to charge me extra is not a nice move. But having those popcorn and water cup made up for it little bit. If I knew I would be charged that much (burger + fries) I would have chosen from the lunch special menu

We were a group of 8 with two children. After touring Crown Heights since early morning, we stopped here for lunch. We walked in, were nicely greeted and sat down immediately. The waitress came over, said hello and immediately took a drink order. They. have a pretty extensive list of wine and beer here along with their very complete food menu. I skipped the appetizer but a few of my friends had the wings. I made the mistake of not tasting one and they looked delicious. Who ever had one also enjoyed them. I went straight for the burger, most of of did. Their classic burger was, [well] a classic. A great patty of [kosher] beef with all the toppings. It was perfectly cooked [medium] and flavorful and moist. This is definitely a great burger spot. Too bad it's a 45 minute drive from me. Service was great and our waitress very attentive to detail. I am really looking forward to a return trip with my wife. I want to experience their great looking desserts. KUDO's to the team here at Boeuf & Bun.

Their signature burger is ultra juicy bf flavorful, even if you must get it well done ;), the Duck pastrami was really tender and had all the flavors of what a traditional pastrami would have. Their charcuterie board was phenomenal and chef said he'd be updating it from time to time with new additions as well. And I'm physical obsessed with their pickled veggies jar!! Loved their olive oil cake served with an in season persimmon and kumquat coulis, almost like a short cake and the sweet and tart of the fruit coulis complimented really well. So get your GNO, BNO, birthday, date night, family celebration going here! It's a fun night out with great food, beautiful ambiance and upgrade energy! Oh and they will hold your table 20 min past your reservation time, DO NOT BE LATER THAN THAT because there is a ton of walk ins and they will give your table up to one of the many hungry patrons waiting. Which I do very much appreciate that they stick to that rule.
