Walked in at 10:30 on a Sunday and there was no wait for a table, but it filled up quickly. I tried: + Chicken sausage egg and cheese + Babka French toast + Espresso + Pistachio white chocolate latte Everything was excellent, but the service was weird/rude. Prob will not be back considering this place is pretty far from my apt, but it's a solid breakfast option if you're in the area.
Stumbled upon this place while scouring Yelp for breakfast spots so we decided to check it out. There's no reservations required but keep in mind that this place is a bit small inside so if it's busy there may not be seating. We arrived by 11am and still found a table. We ordered: - bacon egg and cheese sandwich - traditional eggs breakfast plate - cortado - almond milk latte The dishes were simple but packed with a lot of flavor! I devoured the sourdough toast and eggs but couldn't quite finish all the potatoes because of how full I was. My friend also mentioned that the bacon egg and cheese was SO good. There's quite a few other things on the menu I'd try if I come back. So glad that we stumbled upon this gem.
Keeping in tradition of trying places with the names of dead relatives, I'm here at Golda thinking of my grandmother. Golda is a cozy, cute gem of a place found on a busy street. My Jewish grandmother would give it 5 stars too because the food and drink we had was perfect for the start of our day in NYC. We split the Golda n Pancakes and the Spiced Home Fries. I was appreciative of the pancakes because they didn't taste gf and my reality is if I want pancakes I have to make my own so I loved being able to share them with the teen. The spiced home fries were reminiscent of a potato dish we had the night before at a French place the night before. Both were good. If I lived in the area I would be a regular. The guy taking our order looked stressed however he appeared to be slaying the onslaught of customers with finesse.
Spent my first breakfast of the year at Golda Was near by and saw it was open!! First was planning just on a latte then got tempted for the breakfast. Had a regular Latte served in a beautiful handmade cup And the breakfast plate. Enjoyed both!! Really friendly service, in well a decorated and cosi space.
I'd been eyeing Golda for awhile now and finally made it here a few weekends ago for brunch on a Sunday. The place is well-reviewed, and I thought the food was good, but agree with some other reviews that it's not a place worth going out of your way for. I live nearly an hour's walk from Golda and don't think I will be coming back based on my experience. They do not have much seating at all for outdoor dining, and the menu is a bit limited as well. My friend got a breakfast sandwich that looked good but heavy, while I had the chia seed oatmeal. Prices are reasonable.
Excellent breakfast sandwich. Friendly staff....nice sidewalk seating that I could enjoy with my pooch! I'd return and definitely recommend.
Came here for the labneh parfait and it didn't disappoint - a nice combo of sweet and tart. The service is friendly, they've got a couple of tables outdoor, and a good assortment of pastries up front. I'd definitely have the parfait again as it was a well portioned breakfast for when you're not looking to get overly stuffed. Truth be told though, I imagine I'll be updating this review fairly soon - I'm dying to return for both the fried chicken sandwich, and the smoked trout sandwich. Stay tuned!
Great food and looks/taste as advertised! Great service and felt welcomed when I walked into order. Great music selection and I would absolutely come back to start my Saturday morning at Golda.
Golda is a dream for pickled veggie lovers and spices. Order their breakfast sandwich which is packed with middle eastern flavors also please do yourself a favor and add bacon and avocado. Surprisingly my favorite thing we tired here was the avocado toast, they add tons of pickled celery, olives, pickled carrots and tomato. Just YUM. Hummus also really good but I prefer a smoother consistency, still very flavorful though. Will be back because the coffee is also excellent and the staff was super nice.
I enjoyed eating here overall! I thought the service was good and helpful in avoiding my food allergy. I thought the food was tasty but nothing like outstanding. I had the carrot ginger soup and my friend had a sandwich. She said it was good! I was a bit unprepared for how small the restaurant was and felt a little bit cramped but it was manageable. Pricing was a bit high in my mind for what we got.
We ordered Golda for delivery and were very disappointed. We found the portion sizes to be tiny for entrees and the flavors to be incredibly bitter. The gold'n pancakes were near inedible. The eggplant menneman was spicy but the mustard sauce made no sense. The chicken sausages were fine but again very small for what they are. The delivery was good and well packaged. I'd like to stop in an give this place a try in person but will not be ordering delivery again.
I love me a good all day cafe. Breakfast or dinner food any time of day? Check. Beautifully plated dishes that demonstrate the culinary aptitude of the kitchen and give me a justifiable reason to spend way more than I would at a diner for similar food? Check! Gluten-free kale and walnut muffins? You bet. The menu promised a wide array of sweet and savory pastries, which is music to my ears. Unfortunately they were sold out of most by the time I arrived, save for the aforementioned gluten-free kale & walnut muffin, which wasn't really the vibe for me at the moment. My hanger concerns were quickly quelled when I spotted the eggplant menemen on the menu. Crispy egg, saffron yogurt, jerusalem artichoke, and urfa biber. The internet tells me urfa biber is essentially black pepper, but it's smart of them to make it sound fancy. I inhaled my dish. The two slices of bread on the plate were perfectly chewy, lightly toasted, and had a gentle drizzle of olive oil. This was great for dipping into the saffron yogurt, grilled eggplant and fried egg mix, which was a light and ideal meal for me. Even after chasing this with an oat milk chai latte I wasn't as full as I would've liked, but I also just spent $25 on lunch so I didn't order anything else. I like this place for a mid-week treat yourself meal and can't wait to return for those savory pastries.

Had a lovely breakfast at Golda's with my friends. We called to make a reservation and were told that even though they don't typically accommodate reservations before 2pm, they would make one for us. Food was really tasty, I got a rose and cardamom oat milk latte and their chicken sausage and egg sandwich. Very tasty and filling. Their soup of the day was a potato soup that tasted wonderful. the space was small and they have a sign discouraging laptops, so come here to eat and for community rather than to co-work. Really lovely spot, would return. read more

First I got raw chicken sausage so I took the sandwich back to the counter and asked for well done sausage, a first. When they brought it back it was badly burnt on one half and not much better on the other. I was pretty hungry so ate what I could till it started actually tasting burnt. Was the undercooked sausage the intended preparation? Was this burnt patty some kind of retaliation for questioning the chef? IDK, but if raw chicken sausage is what the kids are into now I guess I've aged out. The other thing odd feature was the drinks. I had a mulled cider and my wife ordered a cappuccino. Both were somehow room temperature. Sometimes you might get a less than super warm cider because they poured too much booze in and then know one cares. That was the problem here. What kind of coffee shop serves room temperature hot drinks on a cold January day? On the other hand. my wife's chicken sandwich was perfect. I guess that's what the 1 star is for. read more
I've been meaning to check this place out for a while, and finally got around to it this weekend. During the pandemic, they do have both indoor and outdoor dining options available, though there are no heat lamps with the outdoor seating so be aware of that. Because of that, my friend and I decided to do their takeout instead! I'm in love with their all day "for two" menu, and we went with the dinner for two. This was a hearty meal, coming with a choice of hummus or babaganoush (we went with hummus), za'atar flat bread, mushroom couscous risotto, choice of chicken or tofu skewer (we chose chicken), and roast sweet potato and turnip, as well as pickled cabbage and lemon carrot salatim. The couscous risotto was interesting and I enjoyed the mix of spices it boasted. The chicken was soft and tender, and wish it came with more than one chicken skewer per person! By far the show stealer for me was the flat bread, though. Spiced just right, it was soft and fluffy; the texture I still dream about. I paired it with the tangy hummus at first but ended up just eating it alone to savor it since I liked it so much. Thought the dinner for two combination was a reasonable deal, and they were nice enough to split it into separate portions for our takeout too. Will be coming back here for sure! read more
I've had this place bookmarked for a while and finally got a chance to check it out! I took my food to go but there's limited seating in the small cafe and based on the time you might get lucky and snag a seat. I'll start by saying this place is super cute and I love the way they decorated the place. The line moves fast and depending what you order you'll wait about 10-15min for your meal. I started with a $7 salted caramel latte which I immediately regretted because it tasted more salty than I expected so I guess that was an acquired taste. I then got the falafel burger and a side of spiced home fries. These two were absolutely delicious and I would definitely get both again. Portions were filling, seasonings were on point, and everything complimented each other very well. I finished it off with a mixed berry scone that was super tasty and not overly sweet. I gave this place a 4 instead of 5 because the prices were too high in my opinion. I spent like $40 which seems steep for what I got. However, I would go back to try some other items on their menu. read more
Indoor dining is now available, in addition to outdoor dining. Seating inside is limited but if you're lucky enough like we were to snag a table before the weekend brunch crowd, you'll be in for a treat. Lovely interior with plants and cute decor, even their coffee cups add nice flair. Nice options for breakfast. Seems small but our food was hearty and perfectly filling. Pastries look yummy, was tempted by their bread pudding from banana foster bread. Everything we had was yummy. Service was great. Star of the show was whiskey latte, I will say can't go wrong with anything here. Central location off Fulton St but still has a chill, quaint, out of city vibes. read more
I love Golda for my post workout meals, for my on the go meals, and for my sit down morning breakfasts & chats. The coffee is soooo good. Perfect ratios of syrup-expresso-milk-ice. I always get the Signature Egg Sandwich, and this time I added beef bacon and avocado. I love that they have beef bacon and not pork bacon (for all my people who try to avoid swine best they can) but it would be nice if they had turkey bacon too. They have been mentioned on The Infatuation for having one of the best breakfast sandwiches in NYC and I'm gonna have to agree. For me, its the nutty muhmmara that is topped perfectly on fluffy scrambled eggs. Definitely a must try. The berries on the yogurt were fresh, not too sweet, not too mushy, and gave me that from the farm feeling. Only thing I would flag is that this is a small place. Their diligent staff is working hard since normally there are only 2 or so of them on the floor. Some days, the service is better than others. Would love to see them expand, so definitely support them! read more

In the shadow of the shuttle, the Franklin Ave shuttle is a special bakery with Middle Eastern/ Eastern European shades. Cozy perimeter seating with a sweet and savory menu. Highly creative small plates- I went with a savory brioche with eggplant and a salad with carrots. Amazing brioche unlike anything I've ever tasted in a little Bed Stuy bakery that was worth the trip. The onion roll sandwiches looked off the charts as well. read more
Amazing new trendy cafe in a very ungentrified part of Bed Stuy from one of the partners from the short-lived but great Tilda All Day. Right near the Franklin Ave C train stop, this place sticks out among the dollar stores and fried chicken shops, but it's well worth it for amazing pastries and the menu of small plates, salads and sandwiches. Try any of the pastries, which are all excellent. We also tried the great Fried Chicken Sandwich, so we'll be back for more food too. read more

Golda is one of Brooklyn's many hidden gems that makes the long commute worth it. They are always hidden in the most obscure neighborhoods but never disappoint. I first came to visit when it was still fairly-new. The space is not that big but the interiors make up for it, making use of wood to accent the rather simplistic ambience. I was hoping to sit by the bar though the place was busy when I went there since it was a holiday after all. They have light meals and an assortment of pastries to go with the coffee. I got a poppy-seed cake which was really good paired with an almond latte. I'm rating it a 3/5 though just because the location is really off-the-beaten-path. read more

I have lived in Clinton Hill for YEARS and this was my first time here. I always see a line outside so I decided to pop in. A nice bright July sunny Monday & I was in the mood for avocado toast. I ordered that without the corn salsa. Once I got my meal ToGo I checked it to make sure it was correct. It looked yummy but I just wanted some crushed red pepper for flavor. So I asked the young lady behind the counter for chilli pepper. She rudely responded, "WE DON'T have any". I didn't think she understood me so I repeated "may I have some crushed pepper?" She replied, "the chef is busy and we don't have crushed pepper." I was appalled at her rude response and won't be going back. Honey it was 11am, if you are in a bad mood you should not be interacting with guests. The toast was good but for $13 and a nasty attitude from the staff I could make this at home. read more
I visited Golda in the early afternoon and it was not too busy, which was a plus since it's a very small place. I wish the space was bigger because seating would get very limited during the rushes. I got the breakfast sandwich with chicken sausage which was delicious! I kind of wish it came with a side. I also got a cold brew which hit the spot (didn't blow my mind or anything - just fine). I'd say if you're nearby you should definitely stop in but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. read more

I love, love, love this place. When I first came to Brooklyn, this was my first shop I went to, and I absolutely fell in love with this place. The store vibe was vibrant and playful. THE PROS * the food... is... incredible. Order the sandwich, add avocados. You won't regret it. The bread is delicious too * friendly staff --always a plus * everything is fresh * modern interior * pristine THE CONS * limited seating areas; the place is small. It's a good place to come when there are a few people here, but once it starts getting busy, people have to sit very close to each other and the space gets tight quickly read more
