Okay, I'm ready to cast my vote in Brooklyn's "Roast Beef War." Roll-N-Roaster vs Brennan &…read moreCarr's. Both restaurants have been in business for well over half a century with well-deserved accolades. Despite having grown up in Brooklyn, I hadn't been to either before this year. I read reviews and actually asked ChatGPT what to order at R-N-R. We went with its suggestion: medium roast beef with cheese, onion rings, root beer and lemonade. My sandwich was more well-done than requested. They don't offer 'rare'. The few bites with red meat were infinitely better than the rest of the sandwich. The roll, as everyone points out, is baked in house. Though light and puffy, it didn't outweigh overdone beef. Onion rings were great, root beer average, and lemonade -- per my husband who loves lemonade -- excellent. While I wouldn't balk about returning, my vote goes to Brennan and Carr, though truly, when cooked as requested there is no substantial difference. If you take the train, get off at Sheepshead Bay Road and head south. Turn left at Emmons Avenue and keep walking. Twenty minutes all told.

Seems like real local classic, very nostalgic feeling - need more restaurants like this all over! -Had roast beef sandwich with grilled onions, fries (uniquely kinda made - great with cheese!!), pizza & strawberry lemonade (didn't get pics) -Was in NY for 4 days, had RNR twice lol RNR being open till 1/2am & having quite a few different options is really nice & doesn't break the bank. Restaurant is also big, plenty of seating. Great for late night grabs or afternoon lunch! Sandwich was very tasty, pizza was good, that's strawberry lemonade was delicious!!! Definitely next time I'm in Brooklyn, stopping at RNR

The crinkle fries are the best not salty. The sweet tea on the other hand tastes like water with sugar you're better off getting a diet soda! I Wish they offered water or plain seltzer for those that don't drink soda at all. It's a healthier alternative option! The Texas toast WOW I order extra! So good fresh crispy and well seasoned! They should have a cheese option that would be amazing! The service is super fast if they are busy the manager( I think it was the manager) was out front helping today and he apologized for the delay! That is amazing customer service! The restaurant is so clean it's always full but the booths and seats are clean! I love that they are always stocked well with napkins and extras at the counter! And finally the secret sauce is OUTSTANDING!!

The quality of the meat from what I read is of outstanding quality which equated to it being far superior to KFC and in my opinion because they don't over season, way better than Popeyes, which always leaves me with a sodium induced migraine. The coleslaw wasn't to my liking, but that's just me. However, the quality of the chicken was superb, lightly battered, but amazingly moist, juicy and not greasy at all. Honestly, I haven't enjoyed chicken like this in a really long time and I was in heaven as I devoured my tendies! The sauce was everything everyone said it was which was delicious and really what makes the chicken so flavorful. I would definitely order again.

There was a longer wait to actually get our food. Limited indoor seating; we were able to grab a table outside immediately but had to wait a bit before grabbing four of the bar seats.

Great above casual spot for a quick bite! We tried the mafaldine scampi and the spicy rigatoni alla…read morevodka. The scampi was delicious and not heavy at all. Paired with their $6 wine offering, it made for a perfect light(ish) dinner. In the words of my man, "the rigatoni was fire." Wasn't too spicy. The texture of both pastas was great--really allowed the sauce to coat the noodles. This spot is better for pairs, maybe a group of 4 at most. Definitely pretty narrow, but cool seeing them cook in the open kitchen.

I've eaten shake shack many times already and have visited other locations as well. I've never had…read moreany complaints about their burger. It's always so juicy and the lettuce, tomato, and pickles are always fresh and not sad looking if you know what I mean. The crinkle cut fries were crispy on the outside and if you order it with cheese, the cheese cup is a generous portion. If you eat it right away, be careful though because the cheese is piping hot so make sure to blow on it to make it cooler. I almost burned my tongue several times cus I was too hungry and eating fast. Their milkshakes are also so good! PRO TIP: some item prices are cheaper through the app so best to order through the app vs in-store.

Came here today after the gym and this place always hits the spot. It was the first shake shack I…read morebeen to many years ago and it brings back fond memories knowing that this is still here. Tried the smoke shack and was pleasantly surprised by how juicy it was. Some people have compared 7th street burger to this place and personally shake shack tops it for me. The 50/50 is also one of my favorite things to get, today I decided to get the strawberry shake and that hit the spot. I like the conveniences of ordering on the phone, or on the kiosk.

The classic 90s soda machine, the menu, and the 90s movies they have playing was a masterful touch to the place. Cannot recommend enough snd truly cannot wait to come back.
