About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Bijan's Brooklyn nestled in the heart of Boerum Hill is Brooklyn's "best secret". We have a cozy, intimate neighborhood feel with a warm wood burning fireplace paired with modern-bistro style cuisine offering a delicious culinary combination of American plates fused with Persian style spices & flare. Creative culinary plates such as the Persian spiced chicken wings leave the palette craving for more. Don't forget the mind blowing craft cocktails. For a great atmosphere, fabulous & friendly service, the staff would be happy to make you something to cure what ails ya!

    We had the chicken wings and Lamb stew, both of which were very good. Our service was excellent and our server was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely go back to this restaurant and highly recommend it.

    Bar staff was very kind and apologetic. Unfortunately the restaurant seemed to be understaffed both front and back of house which resulted in slow and forgetful service though the restaurant was not full. There seemed to be a manager sitting at the bar most the time we were there (he adjusted the music on the iPad and seemed to be writing scheduling notes) but didn't step up to help the service staff at all - which is where the support was needed. Food and drinks were good, but both were slow to arrive. There was a long wait for the first item, and then once it started arriving, it was one item at a time over the course of ~ 15 minutes.

    Food is incredibly good, prices are fair for the portions. Drinks are great too. My only complaint is the space between tables. And generally speaking is a really small room. Other than that my experience was pretty good.staff was super friendly.

    Cozy and delicious! I had the burger and putting blue cheese on it was one of the better decisions of my life.

    While the food and vibes were great, unfortunately the service was subpar. We had to flag down the servers multiple times even though there were only 4 other tables occupied. The food we ordered wasn’t what we received, but it was good. Not sure where the mishap occurred after the server had repeated back our order, but chicken is not beef.
