    Fried Okra, Sauvignon Blanc, and Lobster Bisque.
    Liselle B.

    We were in the area nearby and decided to go get a snack. As we were walking, we stumbled across this unassuming neighborhood gem. It wasn't super crowded, so we decided to sit at the bar. The bartender was welcoming and answered all of my questions as a first-time customer. Ordered the Lobster Bisque, a glass of wine, and Fried Okra. The Lobster Bisque was amazing! I can still taste it as I am writing this and it was a definite win for me! Nothing super fancy about this place, but the vibe that night was just right for my mood. If I am ever in the area again I wouldn't hesitate to stop by and try more of their menu offerings.

    Incredibly popular lunch spot in Sandy Springs! I arrived at 11:30 but by noon, the place was packed. It has a great vibe. The Mahi tacos are a perfect choice at lunch for something delicious that will not force you to take a nap afterwards. I also love their crabcake. In my recent visit, I had a business lunch with a colleague and we thought the service and food was excellent.

    Busy Monday night!

    This place is such a local gem. I had dinner there this week with a couple of friends and once again, Brooklyn Cafe did not disappoint! It was on a Monday night, and when we left, it was packed! Be sure to make a reservation for sure! We asked for, and received, a quieter table away from the bar. A group of regulars are always there having a great time. It's always a happy, warm, friendly vibe. I had the halibut special and it was perfection. They do such a good job with their fish preps. One friend ordered the seasonal gazpacho and a side salad, while the other ordered the steak salad. She said it was the best steak she's had in a long time. I love that you can come for something as simple as fish tacos or something a bit more upscale with their fish and steaks. Parking can be a chore at peak times, but there is a deck right across the street.

    Prime rib and asparagus

    Came here to celebrate my cousins birthday. It's a nice size place with a bar at the entry. We were seated in an enclosed area that I assume they use for larger parties. Our server was training but she did a very good job. I started with the fried oysters which were really good we ended up ordering an additional order. I had the special which was halibut the fish was a bit dry but well seasoned and the string beans were blanched but rubbery. We believe they waited for the steaks and allowed the other food to come out cold. My daughter's burger was burnt, but she said the fries were good. My mother also said the crab cakes were very good just not very seasoned.

    Crab cake Asian Kale Salad

    Not impressed with the service, when you walk in, no one greets you for a long time. Then menu is a little misleading. The server suggested a crab cake salad and I assumed it would be priced AS A SALAD around $16. Then check comes and it's $21 for a small portion... I see pictures of previous orders and see two crab cakes and green beans so I asked her I thought this was a salad and not a plate and she said oh it's the same thing, you just get the option to do a salad or with green beans. I wish she would have said the price before suggesting because I would have never paid $21 for one small crab cake and a side salad that was mediocre. The crab came itself was delicious. My soda was flat. Took over 20 mins to get the check and was left just waiting for someone to come and check on my food and get my check.

    Best burger! A must try!

    Food was awesome, service excellent and the vibe was cool! Extensive menu definitely recommend!

    Rueben

    We had an early evening reservation at Brooklyn Café following an afternoon play at City Springs Theatre. The walk from the theater to the restaurant was short and pleasant, and we left our car in the theater's parking garage -- very convenient. The restaurant itself is very clean, with mostly booth seating and a few tables near the bar. Speaking of the bar -- it was absolutely packed. Despite the crowd, we were seated immediately. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. One thing that surprised us was the menu -- it was much shorter than what I had seen online or in photos from other reviews. There were no burgers, and the only sandwich option was their Reuben. My wife ordered the "Brooklyn Famous Reuben," which she really enjoyed. I chose "Jack's Creole Chicken and Sausage." I'll admit, it wasn't quite what I was expecting. The dish consisted of a grilled chicken breast and sliced sausage served with rice in a creamy sauce. I had anticipated something more akin to a stew or gumbo -- something slow-cooked with andouille sausage and the classic Cajun "holy trinity" of vegetables. Still, while the presentation caught me off guard, the flavors were solid and enjoyable. Overall, Brooklyn Café delivers a pleasant dining experience with great service and a cozy atmosphere. Reservations are highly recommended -- it gets very busy, especially during peak hours.

He also informed us that food was made from scratch and the ribs were already sold out! Bummer as that would've been a go to choice! The restaurant it self seemed cleaned and a sleek look to it. We chose 2 fried chicken meals and steak and frite. These dishes were to brag about 100%, wish I could've met the head chef and supervisor on shift to let them how wonderful the food was and that the staff have great personality and professional! This chicken meals were beyond what could've fool me as a homemade chicken made by someone's grandma! The steak was cooked to perfection that could've melted in your mouth. Due to my son's birthday, the server offered a complimentary dessert for him to have! I recommend this place or their other locations 10/10!

Red flags were screaming at this point! So we proceed to order lunch and she explains why we couldn't because lunch time was over. My wife and I explained that no we walked in well within the remaining minutes of lunch, and that there were a few lunch items only offered during lunchtime that we wanted to take advantage of. Remember, if she would've come to greet us right away instead of being on her phone there would not have been an issue. Plus there was literally no one seated outside except for us! No excuse for this type of service. Plus I'm shocked that management didn't accommodate a first timer to your establishment being it was the server's fault. Amazing how these kind of restaurants forget there are soooooo many great options in this city! No one is going to put up with this type of nonsense. Funny how they forget who's the paying customer, and get arrogant instead of being flexible within reason to a great customer experience. Wasn't asking for anything extra just to honor walking in during lunch time to order lunch! If that's too much to ask then hello and goodbye and that's why we got up and left! This place won't be around long! Ridiculous! Word of mouth is everything in the restaurant business Kid Cashew!

Both the tuna and the octopus apps were great. Wife's steak was prepared well and my beef Wellington was incredible. Not often you find it on a menu and the prep here was outstanding. Sides were good and the sauce was kinda whatever and totally unnecessary. Somehow left room for the dessert (bread pudding with ice cream) and had no regrets.

I thought that was an immediate turn off. I feel like they could have maybe made that sound a lot more classy. One thing about me I'm going to try something in everyone's plate, especially if we all ordered differently. That was such a turn off. However, I did not order the all you can eat, in fact i ordered the same exact meal but as my dinner dish for 1 because realistically who is eating more then one once of ribeye along with a boat load of fries? I'm not. The bbq shrimp deviled eggs were good, if the shrimp was warm i feel like it would have tasted better. The oysters were really good, definitely enjoyed those. Ehh, the Ribeye i wouldn't go back to get in such a rush, the fries were crispy & well made. Now the lobster pasta!!! 10/10 nothing else needs to be stated for this dish! They also have a drink special that advertises $9 for the mini, makes absolutely no sense as it's about 3 sips & done, might as well order a regular martini to enjoy it with your meal.

Inside: The restaurant is charming, cozy, and still feels modern, with both patio and indoor seating available. Plus, if you're not planning to go with a big group, they have plenty of bar seating. There's also plenty of free parking in the parking deck behind the restaurant/building. Service: Despite having a large party, our server, Maddie, was very efficient, kind, and attentive. While we were waiting for several of our party members to arrive, she quickly started us off with drinks. She maintained that same level of attentive service throughout the entire evening, from appetizers and entrees to dessert. Orders were placed quickly, and she was also quick to clear the table between courses to make sure we had enough space. Pricing: Pricing is probably about middle range. It's not necessarily going to break the bank, but if you're looking for something super cheap, this isn't it. We were able to pay for our own items/split the check, which is always great with a large party. A lot of restaurants don't offer that option when dealing with a bigger group. On average, I'd say you could spend anywhere from $30-$50 per person, depending on what you order and whether you get a drink (specifically alcohol). Food & Drinks: The star of the show and the reason you're really reading this review lol. The first time I came with my family, we tried the fried green tomatoes and chicken potstickers. The second time we came, we ordered the exact same appetizers. That alone should tell you how much we enjoyed them lol. I also ordered the same entrée I had the first time: the Georgia Fried Chicken. It is SO delicious. The chicken is tender, juicy, and has the perfect batter. It comes with macaroni (2nd time I got truffle fires) and Brussels sprouts, which are just as equally tasty. The portion size is very hearty, so I definitely think the price ($26) is worth it. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food, drinks, dessert, and atmosphere. We all agreed that Park 82 is a restaurant we'd definitely go back
