    bacon egg cheeseburger
    Peter H.

    A fine, surprisingly refreshing burger meal with friendly service in a small neighborhood setting. We were attracted by Yelp reviews and were pleased by the balanced verdant burgers. My $13.75 bacon egg burger had a 6 oz patty enveloped in melted cheese, two strips of crispy bacon, a perfectly fried egg with liquid gold yolk, and with fresh fix-ins like a red cabbage slaw, lettuce doused in "house sauce," and tomato, all in something like a Martin's potato bun (may have actually been Martin's). The $10.25 veggie burger had a pillowy texture but a nice flavor. Distinct peas were present. The $5.75 prickly pear lemonade was refreshing.

    Im 5 feet 2 inches for reference. I have tiny hands. For $14/15 this burger was so small.

    Waste of money. Burger looked as sad as it tasted. Soooooooo disappointed. I called to let them know my burger was missing ingredients and was ridiculously small for the price. They didn't seem to care at all. The only saving grace were the decent fries. I paid almost $25 for that burger and fries. Definitely not worth it. SAVE YOUR MONEY. Either the quality decreased or the reviews are all

    I love the decor, the graphics and cool SpongeBob band drawn pictures up and around this tiny spot in park slope. The food choices were cool and I loved the rock star themed dishes that was neat. It was a weekday afternoon so crowd was thin which is good because it's only one dining table inside. I didn't wait long for my food which was served fresh and hot!! I also got a shake not pictured which was delicious I had to give four stars because after one bite the burger was literally falling apart in my hands which was messy!!! Nice spot to drop in if you live in the neighborhood

    This is a nice local hole in the wall - good food, good vibes, and even sweeter service. The place is run by a sweet and accommodating lady who makes a really fking good simple fried chicken sandwich. Warm and soft buttered potato bun, perfectly fried and heated chicken, and a nice coleslaw, nothing else you want to ask for. Her service and care extends beyond the dish and she made me feel so at home. If you're looking for a comforting sandwich with comforting and awesome vibes, please come swing by. 4* for food, 5* for vibes.

    Pulled Pork Sliders
    Olivia C.

    Ordered delivery and it was so fast! I've been here several times over the years and the first time I went was phenomenal. Within the last year, it was ok but it's picking back up! The pulled pork burgers are my go tos, they're moist and savory and flavorful. The jalapeño poppers are soo crispy and done so perfectly. The layer of dough is not too thick and it has a good balance of cheese and Mac. The cole slaw is ok - on the underwhelming side but not bad. But nothing special about it. It's a good balance between the heavier things though. Overall, it's a good find for comfort food. I'm a big fan of their police box door, being a fan of the Doctor!

    Tater tots.

    The decor in this joint is pretty great with its cool mural, and it's a good location. However, the vegan Impossible burger was pretty lackluster, and had to be ordered without cheese? Now that I look more closely at the menu I wonder if the "house sauce" was vegan. I asked the cashier what my vegan options were and she recommended this burger. Maybe it was vegan cheese and I should have left it on, or maybe the house sauce isn't vegan? Hard to tell. I should have asked more questions, because she was not offering up much info on her own. Tater Tots we solid though. The tables in the small dining area are not very functional with large gaps between the slats of wood. I had to be careful how I set down my drink and the ketchup bottle each time so it wouldn't tip over. The animal based burgers look pretty solid, but as a vegan I will skip it.

    There are few things more delicious than fried chicken, in all shapes and forms, in all the ways it's permeated American comfort food. The buttermilk fried chicken burger from Gnarly Eats is a gift from the gods--tender and flavorful with the perfect combination of the house spicy mayo and pickled red cabbage and coleslaw to compliment the chicken. At first glance, the burger might seem small, but rest assured that this must've been a deliberate choice to protect customers' waist sizes... after all, it's more than filling (especially if you decide to get a side of their sweet potato fries!). Somehow, despite how many times I've had this sandwich, I've always managed to walk past Gnarly Eats on 7th Avenue. It's truly a hole-in-the-wall, though I can tell that the owner put thought into the decor (a TARDIS front door and Polaroids galore)? Modern Brooklyn at its finest. Open for delivery and takeout during the pandemic. Can't wait until I can eagerly scarf down their food in neighboring Prospect Park again.

    Came to Gnarly Eats with a friend after hanging out on a Sunday evening. It was a tiny restaurant but very cozy! My friend was in the mood for a burger and after checking it out on Google Maps, the 4.4/5 rating was enough to convince us it was worth a try. I ordered their Impossible Burger, my friend had the Classic Burger and then we split hand cut French fries. The total came up to $32, which was a bit pricey for a casual burger spot but we were in Park Slope so I knew what that would be the situation. The vibes were nice though so it was worth the money. The food was also delicious. I pretty much inhaled my burger (according to my friend, lol). I loved the Polaroids on the wall as well as the chalk drawing of SpongeBob and Patrick around the room. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a quick bite in the neighborhood. Thanks for having us, Gnarly Eats! I hope y'all offer us the opportunity to have our pic posted on the wall next time :)

    After a long walk around prospect park. We stopped for a new experience at this establishment.

    I got to visit tonight after a random pick with my little ones. Even though o had to leave in a hurry, I enjoyed what I did get to experience. The fries and onions rings were a classic version. I appreciated the different condiment available for the customers to use. I didn't get to eat my burger but my god daughter did. And she said the burger was so good. So I'll take her word for it. I'll do an update after I get to eat my food. But for now I appreciate the freshness of the food that came out pretty fast. The decor was cute and quaint. My only negative thing I have to say is that they didn't have a bathroom. Which is why I had to leave early due to one of the children. Other than that it was kool. Hope to visit again and actually enjoy my food there.

    Classic Burger and an Impossible burger with some fries
    Khaleel W.

    After all that Thanksgiving food I was in the mood for a burger. I'm not from Bk so my friend found this spot. It had good reviews so we popped in. The place is small but welcoming. They had really photos of past guests on the wall and a nice SpongeBob and Patrick drawing. Ordering was quick and easy. We sat down and devoured our food. The fries were perfect, well seasoned too. I would definitely go back and I recommend it to anyone looking for some good eats.

    Loaded Kitchen Sink Fries
    Hannah B.

    This is the best place I have ever been to. If you're around here definitely go. I got the Grateful Dead burger "gnarly burger" and it was cooked PERFECTLY. Medium well. Then we both got strawberry milkshakes and the kitchen sink fries with no spicy. And wow. Like wow. This was the best meal I have ever eaten.

    Classic burger and beer battered onion rings
    Janet Y.

    I've been hearing and reading great reviews about this place so I decided to give it try. Plus, I was craving a burger so... I ordered the classic burger and a side of beer battered onion rings to go. The classic burger consists of 6 oz. Angus beef patty with American cheese, caramelized onions, red leaf lettuce, tomato, pickled red cabbage and house sauce on a soft airy potato bun. FULL DISCLAIMER: I ordered there and waited for my food. The minute he gave me my food, I actually took the food out to set up a food shot. (don't judge me) I immediately felt the burger was wet and greasy. The onion rings were hot AF but super crispy. (Yes, I ate one and burn my mouth). Once I was done taking a few food pics, I packed everything up and walked a few blocks home. Once I got home to eat, the burger was a soggy mess. The onion rings were still crunchy and hot. Clearly, the burger does not travel well but to be fair it was already wet to begin with. Overall, the burger was ok despite the soggy mess. The meat itself needed a little more flavor or even a pinch of salt would do. The onion rings were meaty and delicious. This place definitely has potentials and has other menu items that are worth a try. I would give it a second chance... but maybe just not the burger.

    Not an Impressive Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Kern C.

    This is a rounded up rating . Gnarly scores well on pricing , being a byob and portion size . Taste wise it is anything but almost perfect which is what it's rated on yelp. My review is based on their fried chicken sandwich and their Brisket sliders , both seemingly popular choices . The chicken sandwich - Massive pieces of lightly breaded chicken seasoned well but not quite as juicy as I'm used to . The chipotle sauce was an absolute mess dripping out the sandwich on every bite and did little to add any flavor to the sandwich.The bun was not toasted and again didn't help the sandwich . A thicker less watered down sauce ,juicier chicken and more slaw would have made this sandwich alot better. Overall I'd rate the sandwich 3.5/5. The Brisket slider was again generously portioned with heaping amounts of brisket in two good sized slider buns. The brisket was drenched in a too sweet somewhat honey ish sauce that was yuck ! The brisket itself was not melt in your mouth quality and took a lot of chewing to break down . A simpler sandwich with wonder bread and better brisket would have done the trick way better. Gnarly has a lot of potential but it's not a place I can say I'd surely visit again . I rounded up because the lady manning the restaurant was extremely kind and outgoing and made my meal a little more enjoyable than it should have been .

Let's start with the good - the service and ambiance were on point. I went on a Sunday evening around 7pm. It was busy inside, but since I was a solo diner I was seated immediately by the bar. The servers were friendly and attentive. Probably 3-4 different people checked in multiple times throughout the meal. Where I struggle is with the actual burger itself. As a non-resident New Yorker, for me $22.50 is a lot to spend on a burger and fries. It needs to rock my world at that price point. And it just didn't. I got the B&B Burger. The onion ring tasted like it had been refried a second time to make my burger. The bread was crumbly like it was on the verge of going stale. The actual beef patty itself was decent - good flavor. Usually I can overlook an okay burger if the fries are top notch, but these fries were under-seasoned and also 'just okay'. I also got a side of Chicken Tenders. These were good - no complaints here.

The bun is soft and sweet and the burger has a good amount of sautéed mushrooms. Truffle Parmesan fries were pretty standard, but still very good. Yuzu honey lemonade has bits of citrus at the bottom of the drink and it was refreshing. I saved the chicken bites hours later and it was still pretty crispy after being microwave.

    "LIVES UP TO THE HYPE"…read more For the last few years I've been seeing videos on Tik-Tok and Facebook's "Reels" about Brennan & Carr, a Brooklyn institution that serves a famous roast beef sandwich. Video after video of the sandwich being dunked in the equally-famous "au jus" gravy that had my mouth watering. But I live in Westport, Connecticut, and though I go into Manhattan a lot (I used to live in the East Village), a rarely have a reason or need to go to Brooklyn, and I know few people there, so my wish to sample a Brennan & Carr roast beef has gone unrealized. Until this past Sunday. I recently befriended a fellow pop culture enthusiast and author who lives in Brooklyn, and he invited me to his book release party for his family and friends at his home on Sunday afternoon. When I Google-mapped my driving route, I wondered if Brennan & Carr might be close enough that I could go there after the afternoon party. To my surprise and joy, they were 5 minutes away! So I finally got to try a B&C RB sammie. Of course, I asked for it "all the way," with cheese, onions, and fully dipped in the au jus. That first bite was like a little taste of (roast beef) heaven!!! That first surge of "hot beef" flavor is unforgettable! I was amazed that the hefty bun it came on was able to simultaneously soak up all that au jus without falling apart at all! It maintained its integrity all the way to the final bite. Which, by the way, I could BARELY finish, it was so filling! I came practically starving, and that roast beef sandwich so filled me up that I barely touched the (excellent) onion rings that I had also ordered! Upon leaving (with a "dry" sandwich to go, with the au jus in a cup!), I had a great chat with the man at the cash register (whom I think was also the manager), Patrick Stackpole, about our shared love for Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone (that's a whole other story!). Suffice it to say, Brennan & Carr's roast beef sandwich more than lives up to the hype!!! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna have my to-go roast beef for dinner!

    Drove past this place for years and never went in, no idea why. Finally stopped in last week with…read moremy wife and honestly, should've done it sooner. The roast beef sandwich is the star here and for good reason. They slice it thin, pile a ton on, and the bread's already soaked in the jus by the time it gets to you, which sounds weird if you've never had it but trust me it's the move. Get it dipped again when they ask too, yes it's messy, just deal with it. Fries were fine, nothing crazy but good for dunking in the extra jus pooling on your plate. Had a beer too, don't remember what kind, just whatever was on tap. The inside is kind of a time capsule, feels like it hasn't changed in decades, in a good way. Staff just get you in and out, no small talk, which honestly I didn't mind. Only reason it's 4 and not 5 for me is this whole place is built around one thing, so you really gotta be into roast beef going in. But if that's your thing, this is about as good as it gets. Going back next time we're over that way.

What has me ding them a bit - the whole ala carte cheeseburger thing - cmon, for the price of a 3 course meal at olive garden you can throw in some papas fritas. Second, the salad (not my idea to order it) was depressing and not good. Third - the $5 fee to a get a rez...although it's probably better than auto grat or those kitchen service charges... Fourth, the service was kinda mixed..one guy was nice while some others were ehhhh. I def like the vibe of the place and would def go back. So I dunno, maybe it should be 5 stars...but i dont think a bunny would eat that salad.
