    King Hand Cut Fries Fried Shroom Sandwich
    LaKayla L.

    This place is very cute and has a cozy feel. It is pretty small so I wound recommend big groups. I ordered the shroom sandwich with a side of fries and I must say that Parlay did not miss. I was honestly blown away by how good the sandwich was. The oyster was huge and the right amount of crispy. It was seasoned so well and the thick cut of tomato complimented it nicely. I believe the sauce was some sort of house sauce and it was very savory. I would definitely order this dish again. Very pleased with the establishment. Can't wait to visit again :)

    Everything was perfect. Delicious. Divine. Creative. Served with love I don't live in Brooklyn. I fear they might not be here next time I am in town. Gotta eat this food again!

    Solid lunch spot. Came here on a weekday for lunch with a couple friends. The place wasn't too busy and we were able to seat ourselves at a table right away. I ordered the Malaysian Curry Chicken, which I thought was pretty good. My friend who is a regular here really likes their Fried Chicken Sandwich. Glad I got to try this place!

    Great find in Sunset Park and highly recommend for a quick bite or brunch. There is seating outside and limited seats inside. The music was great and at a comfortable level. The staff was attentive and service was wonderful. As an appetizer we ordered the mozzarella sticks and WOW!! They were huge and cheesy and delicious. The food was excellent and cannot wait to return to try other items on the menu!

    Parlay has been in my bookmarks for a long time and I finally got to come today! It's a cute cafe and it has a calming and nice ambiance to it where i can just relax I came with my husband and we enjoyed it alot! The roti for the malaysian curry was super crispy but not burnt and the curry itself was delicious with pieces of potatoes and chicken inside. The burger was only okay for me since it didn't have special ingredients and the patty was a bit too well done for my taste, but that's just me - it could be perfect for someone else and it's still a good burger but i wouldn't say it was special. The staff was very friendly and I believe it's a mother daughter owned cafe and that's what i love to see rather than more chains around us. I would recommend for a date tbh!

    This was my first time trying this brunch spot . I pass by it often so figured it was time to give it a try . The pace is cash only but does have an atm inside . You order at the "desk" then food is brought to your table . The place isn't huge inside but it's cozy . Cons: When I went to place my order . I inquired about the ingredients of the omelette and let them know of my cheese intolerance . I was told there was no cheese In this dish . When my food arrived sliced my omelette and saw the entire inside filled with melted cheese . I called the waiter over and told her . Very rudely she stated "I told you we don't put cheese in the omelette". I have to open it up for her to see the cheese, then she grabbed the plate . No apology for her mistake and eventually my food came out without cheese . The entire interaction was very off putting hence the 3 star review Pros : I did enjoy the food and the atmosphere . If I had a different waiter this could have been a 4 start review . Definitely order the curry and roti ( it comes with 2 pieces of roti and you can get extra for $3)

    I came here years ago and enjoyed their brunch and decided to come here again with a friend since we were in the area. I wanted to try their signature Malaysian curry chicken. They also had a toasted sesame latte that seemed really interesting. You order at the front first before being seated. The environment is pretty nice. It's decorated really nicely and overall a nice place to catch up with a friend. The food however was a bit disappointing. The signature curry was really heavy for my taste with few pieces of chicken and two pieces of potato. The roti that it came with was dry, flakey, and very thick. It wasn't crispy at all but felt more doughy. The French toast my friend got was standard. Nothing special about it. The toasted sesame latte had zero sesame flavor to it. It just tasted like a regular latte. Overall, the food was disappointing and I don't think I would come back again but the environment was pleasant. The staff was nice as well but not as attentive since my water cup was empty for a long time.

    How lucky am I that I was craving eggs Benedict and I happen to be near this spot? The food, the service, the ambiance, even the clean bathroom - I was very happy with my brunch here and would love to come back next time I'm in the area.

    5 stars alone for the shroom burger! Had the curry chicken with awesome rotis! Service is excellent with super affordable prices. Would be 5 but the espresso machine was broken and the drip coffee was just ok. They dress it for you and also there are no free refills. There was supposed to be a craft beer/wine selection and there was none of that. Cash only.

    Food delicious, although we waited a long time for coffees ( food was already half eaten by the time they came out ) everything was delicious and the man in charge gave us a fruit salad on the house. He forgot our pancake order ( to share for the table) but honestly we weren't in a rush and he was so sweet and the food tasted so good I didn't care.

    The food is delicious and well tasty. I came here after church and had brunch with my friend. I highly recommend this place for the delicious food especially, the Malaysian Curry Chicken or Shrimp and the Hibiscus Lemonade.

    Xue Lin L.

    The cheeseburger and chicken sandwich were very good. The sweet potato fries were crispy but could use some salt. The french fries were solid. Hibiscus lemonade was perfect, tart and not sweet. Heads up: cash only and if you don't order food (you only ordered a drink) they won't seat you

    Nice decor
    Wendy C.

    Great place for brunch in the outskirts of busy 8th Avenue. This place has a nice fusion of Asian inspired dishes along with your traditional American plates. The star of the show is definitely the Malaysian curry. The Roti Canai is a great dipper for the thick sauce. I also used my home fries to soak up every bite of the sauce. I also enjoy the toasted sesame latte a lot, it was a nice hot drink packed with flavor in every sip. My husband enjoyed the French toasted and the runny Eggs Benedict with hollandaise sauce. The staff are friendly and the seating is comfy. The decor is very pretty as well.

The Cocktails: Expertly crafted and sophisticated. It was refreshing to have drinks that were perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. The coffee was served alongside dessert, it was rich and the perfect finishing touch to a wonderful meal. While the Filet Mignon was a popular and well loved choice among our group, and the Meatballs were universally raved about for being truly excellent, the real showstopper for me was the Chicken Parmesan. I don't typically order steak, so I was delighted by this choice. The cutlet was impressively sized yet elegantly thin, showcasing the high quality of the chicken. It was served with a side of creamy mashed potatoes, which was such a comforting and delicious pairing. It did remind me of visiting Germany believe it or not like a schnitzel style cutlet but still very italian if that makes any sense. If you visit, you simply cannot miss the fried eggplant appetizer with burrata. It is divine! This dish alone would be the perfect excuse to drop by for a casual dinner date or a "girls' night out" centered around appetizers, wine, and to try a dessert. I would absolutely return!

The salmon over hash brown , was lacking a touch of something , couldn't pinpoint what was lacking. Chicken and waffles, decent, wasn't the best I've had. Service- jonathan was our waiter during brunch and also our bartender. He's GREAT! During service dinner, we had a female waitress and I felt she lacked attention to details and couldn't flag her down when we wanted something. Overall, service is a hit or miss , I guess?

The salvaged wood interior and candlelit ambiance create this inviting space that feels both historic and lived-in. It's cozy enough for a relaxed family dinner but still feels special. We've worked our way through quite a bit of the menu over the years. The mushroom tagliatelle is rich and satisfying, the crispy chicken sandwich hits the spot, and the charred orange cauliflower couscous topped with smoked salmon is a real standout--beautifully balanced. The pan-fried okra and fried shrimp are great for sharing, and the rainbow beet salad adds a nice fresh note. I also appreciate how kid-friendly they are without dumbing anything down. My kids are happy with their chicken poppers and quesadilla while we enjoy the more adventurous stuff. The place is named after Jacques Cortelyou's famous 17th-century map of Manhattan, and somehow that history feels present without being gimmicky. It's just a really solid neighborhood spot that makes you appreciate Ditmas Park. Cortelyou Road has a lot to offer; The Castello Plan is a great option to grab a tasty bite while exploring the neighborhood.

The menu is a testament to culinary artistry - each dish, from the appetizers through to the desserts, was a masterpiece. The flavors and textures were unique and memorable, with each bite cooked to absolute perfection. The service at Ren deserves its own accolade - it's a five-star experience in its own right. The waitstaff was attentive without being intrusive, enriching our evening with detailed descriptions of each dish. They didn't just serve food; they presented a story on a plate, explaining the intricate details of the ingredients, preparation, and the symphony of flavors to expect. The ambiance of Ren added to the magic of the evening. The decor was tasteful, the furniture and seating comfortable, creating an environment that was both elegant and inviting. It's clear that attention to detail is a priority here, and it shows in every aspect of the restaurant. In conclusion, dining at Ren isn't just a meal; it's an immersive experience that tantalizes all the senses. While it may not be the most budget-friendly option, what you receive is far more than just food - it's an evening of unforgettable culinary exploration. I wholeheartedly recommend Ren Restaurant for anyone looking to elevate their dining experience to extraordinary heights.

Based on the quality of the food I tried, I do think the menu prices were way overpriced (prices would have to be halved for me to think them reasonable).

The empanadas confused me (flavors didn't work together; also NONE of us could tell what the meat was) and the chicken tenders were nothing special. Salad was ok; it was fresh but again, nothing special. I'm not sure what steaks we were served, but I found them overcooked. Enjoyed the accompanying potato wedges more than the steak, tbh.

The dessert platter in the end was the best part. There were various desserts and each one was superb, light, & not too rich. Overall, a nice experience but wouldn't say it was the best steak I've had.

Which consists of voila: Mozzarella, avocado, tomato jam, arugula, crispy bacon, dijonaise, sunny side up egg between multigrain toasts.

Let's first talk about the wheat toast: I tasted it naked and it simply melted in my mouth. The ingredients worked well together, perfect synchronicity.

Loved it and went well with the Sammy!
