So I've ordered takeaway from here before, but I was in the neighborhood and decided to stop in for an early dinner in person. When I tell you this breakfast bowl hit the SPOT!!! It was so delicious, salty, creamy, spicy, crunchy... all the taste buds were exploding! I was struggling to finish it as I was getting so full. The server was very sweet, and checked in a few times. The environment is very local dive spot, but it's cozy, don't expect any extravagance. It's like elevated diner food. However whoever is cooking is the true highlight and star of the show. I will say for a breakfast bowl was a little pricey, but for the portion size it's not too bad, it's not overpriced just a little more expensive than I'd normally spend. But they were serving breakfast still at 5 PM and that is very my vibe. I will be back most definitely! read more

This was my second time trying Wheelhouse. My first visit was underwhelming, but I ordered items that weren't popular, so I decided to give it another shot and try one of their staples. This time I ordered the braised short rib sandwich. It was decent, but a bit greasy and too pricey in my opinion. I ordered takeout, but the inside had a chill vibe, and the bartender was friendly. read more

It's amazing how big the menu is for a small kitchen. The Philly sandwich was so delicious! I can't wait to come back to try the pasta! read more

Their food is phenomenal! I've never dined in, so I can't speak to their service, but I've ordered delivery many times. My faves are the fried brussel sprouts with balsamic and capers as well as their mac and cheese - so freakin' good!!! Their tater tots and grilled cheeses are also delish. Their food always arrives hot too, so get ittt. read more

The delivery was an hour+ late. The portions were tiny and cold. The shrimp were not clean-- the shell was still on the shrimp. The taco shell was soggy. The Wheelhouse is way overpriced. Will not order from them ever! read more

The workers are all super nice and bilingual which is convenient. They were very hospitable and kind to me and my girlfriend when we swung by for soup and sandwiches. The food is fresh and really good tasting, it came piping hot and definitely made me wanna come back. The lady that served us was super nice and genuinely seemed happy to do what she does for a living. Great spot!! read more

Incredibly attentive service and some of the best sandwiches we have ever had! All week we have been debating when we can get back! A smaller space but plenty of room for our large group and a handful of other parties. Will be back asap! Hearts!!!! read more

Came in on a random weekday for lunch. I'd heard about these mythical sandwiches and thought - how good can a sandwich be?! Turns out they are pretty amazing! Warm, perfectly toasted bread, short rib was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. Sat on the outdoor patio area which was relaxing and quite spacious. I admired that a lot of people came for beers at 1pm, must be a nice life! Unfortunately the kitchen was quite busy during our visit, and we ended up waiting over 35 minutes. For a freaking sandwich. A good one, yes, but that is pretty unacceptable on a weekday at lunch. Also - they have a card surcharge of 3.5% which was not advertised clearly until bill came. I know they're not the only culprit but this is false advertising and it is a practice that is quite unethical, frustrating that restaurants keep nickel and diming their customers! read more

I tried this on a whim and was pleasantly surprised! Their prices are pretty fair for the portions, and the corn nuggets were the best I've had in NYC! As someone originally from Tx, I did not think I would be impressed, but I was! I had the pulled pork tacos and they were wonderful. I hope to be back soon! read more

10/10! Dined in on a whim and it was delicious! Staff were friendly and attentive, food was fresh and possibly one of the best sandwiches I've had. We got the burrata salad, Philly cheesesteak, braised short rib sandwich, and a side of mac and cheese. We're pretty picky and loved all of it! Bonus for the Halloween decor. read more

Food was unbelievably delicious and varied as my two daughters are both vegetarian and one a pescatarian as well. My son lives in Bushwick with his fiance and we found this place to be great! Would definitely go back and highly recommend it. Service was good and ambience was nice. Chef approved! read more

Great food great service. Had they opened earlier we would like to have breakfast there too.

I was not the first to review The Wheelhouse, but I was the first customer for that day six years ago. I had the short rib grilled cheese and tots and chopped it up with one of the owners. He was good company and the food was all of that or alla dat! I wanted a grilled cheese sammie, but was too lazy to concoct one, plus I didn't have bread (trying to avoid it, but today's craving superseded that and because it's Friday!). Of course I ordered (UberEats) the short rib grilled cheese, but also the Red, White and Blue, because I love bleu cheese and almost any other cheese, I like variety and it's Friday. I had one half of each and was content and happy to say that The Wheelhouse is still on point! Both sandwiches were delicious, savory, great portions, and satisfying. my food was delivered and wasn't hot, but warm and still elicited endorphin party vibes (INSERT BIG SMILE (((CHEESE!!!!... absolutely intended)))). Y'all ROCK! (Refer to my first review for food details). read more

Hidden gem in the neighborhood. Lazy rainy Sunday led us to stumble into The Wheelhouse. The wife wanted tomato soup and after searching for some on yelp, seemed to be the go to spot. And let me tell ya, for sure it was! Hit the spot. I had the Braised Short-Rib Sandwich and Mac and cheese and the wife the Creamy Roasted Tomato Soup Panavia Tornado. Very filling and delicious. Will definitely be back. read more

The Wheelhouse will be a new go-to, the menu has something for everyone! Today we tried 3 of their sandwiches. Each one had great flavor, perfect serving size, and were neat- I hate a messy sandwich! It's really hard to find somewhere with good gluten free options and this place made me feel like I wasn't missing out on anything. Great food, quick and attentive service, and so many options. We will definitely be back! read more

I ordered the Gruyère and Sourdough grilled cheese with the tomato soup is it was mind blowing. I am so exited to find a place that can serve up some awesome comfort food on demand! read more

The spicy chicken sliders are to die for! Cute ambiance inside and good service. If you order takeout and it comes with chips just ask for them to be placed separately otherwise they come soggy :) read more

I mean - wow. Definitely a small place but 100% worth, especially if you like trivia on Wednesdays. Had a blast here not only with the food, but also with the trivia. While the service was a touch slow, it was literally one person for the whole place and they got the food out hot, fresh, and the drinks poured quickly. The loaded tots were so freaking delicious - smothered in a homemade cheese sauce with lots of bacon. So tasty. The sandwiches are so epic and I rarely get menu fomo, but I could not choose. I went with the portobello and cheese grilled cheese - not disappointed. The cheese blend was fantastic and the mushrooms were soooooo good, perfect cook! The fomo I had was the short rib with the black berry jam. Wow. Epic. The the sweet and the savory was SUCH a great combo. Definitely will be back for more trivia! read more

Here's the deal - I'm sick, I have a 103.8 fever. I order 2 bowls of soup, bread and a grilled cheese for $30. I don't want to do this, but I'm having trouble keeping food down and I figure soup is gonna help (the grilled cheese though was to break the minimum and for that I take responibility) I leave instructions saying I'm super sick and would appreciate if they come upstairs, and they don't. Fine. It's New York City. I open by bag and I have two paltry cups of soup, with barely any substance, I mean maybe 10 altogether pieces of chicken, noodle, carrot and potato. They gave me two small soups. Again, I'm really sick. I was counting on those bowls of soup. I didn't spend $30 to get 2 small bowls of soup, a below-par grilled cheese (but again, I was sick, so I take partial responsibility) and soggy bread so that I can get 2 small soups and a $5 Uber credit. I understand the heartless resolution from a major corporation, but not this BS from a modest Brooklyn restaurant. You made me quit Uber Eats. read more

Spot is quaint with good music (Spanish/world) but it isn't suitable for cold/winter weather. There's mild heat if any inside but it's completely muted by the amazing windows and lack of external vestibule for the door. Because of this coffee was ice cold, even when the 2nd one had no milk and mac and cheese "soup" coagulated quite quickly. I wish they had more alcoholic beverages but even more non-alcoholic options would have been great too. Overall the food is super flavorful and I love that it is a spot that doesn't try and rush you to eat. Try a soup if you venture here in the cold they warmed me up very quickly. I'd definitely return in a warmer period and with an emptier tummy ^_^ read more

What a great recommendation from a friend while visiting Brooklyn! The food was absolutely delicious. The Mac and cheese was a favorite amongst my party! Great service - and good seating. Food took a little bit of time but when it tastes so good it doesn't matter read more

Ordered via door dash Got the braised short rib sandwich I asked for them to exclude the blackberry jam (not a jam person) This was a great sandwich Unfortunately without the jam it is on the drier side but if you have anything in your fridge to dip it works out well The meat was so perfectly seasoned The bread was firm but buttery The onions were a great added touch Unfortunately my cup of tomato soup was missing but probably would have been perfect to dip this in. Next time. Overall great food. read more

I was excited to try this place out but to do conflicting messages on the website and in-person I decided not to dine here. Went there for brunch since the website states that it would be $17 for 60 minutes of mimosas. When I got to the restaurant the employee stated that its $24 for 60 minutes of mimosas. When I referenced the website he was adamant that it was $24. It's even more weird because they have a weekly/daily specials menu on the site. Restaurants, please update your websites and Instagram pages. I wanted to try the food but the conflicting info was annoying and $24 for mimosas for 60 mins is overpriced read more

Delivery Review: My new fave delivery place! Came across The Wheelhouse after searching Uber Eats for Brussels Sprouts and so glad I did! The brussel sprouts are shaved and lightly tossed in a tasty balsamic vinegarette with sprinkles of parmesan slightly overcooked but not in a bad way at all. The portion size on these is a bit small for the price but it's hard not to order it again as they really are that good! For my main I ordered the burrata salad which was also delicious, very lightly dressed bed of fresh arugula and tomatoes topped with pesto burrata. This pairing was filling, vegetarian friendly, and probably keto friendly? I ordered twice in one week and highly recommend! read more

The Jerky Boy Sandwich was delicious. Right amount of spice. The chutney whoaaaaa. I will be ordering again soon.

Terrific dinner with our family at The Wheelhouse last night - appetizers of cauliflower & brussel sprouts were delicious - and the entrée sandwiches were outstanding. Short Rib & Cheese sandwich with lentil soup was amazing. All that along with very good customer service made for a special night ! Kudos read more

love these sandwiches here! and they're not boar's head god bless. the turkey kale bacon sandwich is unreal - the blackberry jam on it is insanely good. never been there in person but i'm sure it's a cute vibe. oh and the tomato soup hits! read more

I'm coming back to The Wheelhouse for sure! I love brunch and this was a perfect meal. I had the lemon hummus toast with a side of tater tots (which I love that they offer instead of plain old fries) and a side of plantains (which is random and totally out of theme but I secretly loved it) I went right as they opened so they weren't busy at all and the staff was super friendly. The prices are moderate and the mimosas added a nice little buzz. Highly recommended! read more

Came here for lunch with E and we had previously had a cocktail before, so we didn't try any of their specialty drinks or milkshakes. However, I found it strange that their Root Beer float was priced the same as a their more "extensive" shake at $7.50. Isn't a Root Beer float, just ice cream topped with Root Beer? Their vanilla, strawberry and black and white shakes are priced at $6.50. Moving on, we got the Burger Melt with a fried egg and a Braised Short Rib and since it was a blistering hot day, we got a salad rather than the chips. They both were good, but the braised short rib definitely won me over. I would be back to try their shakes and maybe inquire how a $7.50 root beer float tastes like. read more

I'm shocked by the good reviews to say the least. The restaurant itself isn't bad, just very plain. We were the only people sitting and it still took us 15 minutes to be waited on. Once we got the food the experience just got worse. My friend ordered the hamburger melt and I ordered the Smokehouse Turkey. My friends food was edible but so bland. It tasted like they didn't butter the bread nor season the meat. He ate half and left the rest. The meat on my sandwich had a terrible texture and it was very wet due to the black jam. I asked for a plain grilled cheese instead. That too would be very bland. I've never had a grilled cheese that lacked a salty flavor considering the cheese. I ate a quarter of it and had to let it go. I would never come back here with the exception of happy hour (drinks only). read more

Cuban sandwich - pretty alright 3.5 out of 5 Chicken Noodle Soup - So mid I'm here writing a review. -1 out of 5 So tasteless it made me think I had Covid. Bought because I was sick and now I'm even sicker. Don't know how the food is in person but delivery soup was so mid. Overall Rating - 1 star because soup was mid read more

The food is very heavy but amazing! Especially if you love cheese. What's also nice is they have dairy free, gluten, and vegan options which is great for some of my friends. I've ordered from here for delivery several times and it's always a hit in groups. Dining in person was great too - the staff helped get me vegan cheese when they ran out, going in person to make sure I could still have my sandwich, so sweet! Casual and comfy vibes. Don't forget to get tomato soup to dip your sandwich in! read more

yummy food, great decorations for seasonal festivities, gluten free options, and good service

Exploring Bushwick after my daughter moved in. Landed at Wheelhouse, on Wilson. It was 80 degrees and we were sitting outside. They immediately brought a bowl of water for the puppy. Two stars right there. The service was attentive without being annoying, the "make your own grilled cheese", 2 cheeses, 2 veggies and optional protein, was absolutely incredible, and even the iced tea was superb. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

I really wanted to love this place so badly, it was the only option for me on Uber Eats that involved customization with your Mac and Cheese. I placed my order and was excited for it to arrive and waited to take my bite and felt disappointment. The pancetta bread they gave me on the side which I paid extra for was soggy and burnt. The mac and cheese was not cheesy and lacked flavor completely. The only thing that was good with my order was the chocolate fudge cake though. read more
