    It felt more like a lounge/club than a restaurant. It also could be because of the time and date we went to dine there.

    I tried to attend brunch with some friends yesterday and the African American man that was working the front door had a horrible attitude. My party was on time but my friends was not. The restaurant was almost empty and he would not accommodate. He seemed to be irritated about something. Needless to say we left and went somewhere else.

    the restaurant has a very nice ambiance and DJ; food menu is limited after 10 and almost non-existant after 11 (wings and fries). If the restaurant would expand kitchen offerings as well as better communicate its policies, it could be ripe to be a homerun.

    I enjoy the vibe and environment at Brooklyn, and that was fine this particular time. The service was good as well. However, the food could've been better. I don't think it's worth the prices they charge. My friend and I had the crispy shrimp, the steak sandwich, and the crab cake benedict. The shrimp were delicious and so was the steak sandwich. The crab cakes were a bit dry though, and the breakfast potatoes were not appealing at all. I expected a crispy roasted or fried potato, but I received mushy, wet potatoes. I would still go back, but I'd be more cautious with whatever food item I order.

    When we arrived there was a sign on the door that the restaurant was closed for a private event. And the staff inside just stared at us through the window like we were crazy. Not sure why they allowed people to make reservations when the restaurant was going to be closed.. very unprofessional and inconveniencing.

    The food took longer than usual to get and then upon receiving the food, all of the meals were cold.
