    When I tell ya'll it's probably been years since I stepped into Sisters! And I'm kinda mad at myself for staying away for so long. Me and a group of gals spent the day together. Talking, sharing stories and enjoying the beautiful day with brunch, a little thrifting and then a lazy walk. We ended up at sisters where we had some great cocktails and shared a bunch of small plates! Everything was really really good. I can't wait to go back and hope that it won't be as far and few between, as the last time.

    Quinoa Burger - surprisingly delicious
    Caroline N.

    For my 900th review, I have to highlight this beautiful Farm to Table in Brooklyn. (Sorry Queens!) Friendly staff, even the customers are friendly. While waiting for our items. We were talking to our neighbor who is a big Liberty fan so we unloaded the extra items from the fan appreciation ceremony we were at. Great food. We both ended up living the quinoa burger. It paired well with the tomato soup. We split everything in half which worked well for us. Great space. Everything is so relaxed and enjoyable. Go say hi if you are in the neighborhood.

    Rocky start but strong finish. Sisters is a very cozy restaurant which would be an ideal location for a date or cocktails. The focal point of the large bar was rather nice as it illuminated its spirits and house mixers. Getting seated was no problem and I have to credit the hostesses for making a quick and strategic decision to allow for my group to be seated within secs upon arrival. The server was very polite and persistent while working through some communication challenges with the kitchen. The relayed information did create some confusion at the table but was able to be resolved by the owner who clarified the menu option and finished taking the order. The second order of the salmon didn't arrive correct with the substitution and we were ready to settle, fortunately the server was insistent the order was corrected and returned it to the kitchen. Once the meal arrived corrected it was amazing. I ordered the fried fish sandwich that was constructed very well. The brioche bun tasted like it was made in house, the fish itself was very flakey and tender without falling apart, and the sauce with the garnish paired well. I do wish a side of aioli sauce came with it because it was very good. The wings were sriracha based and likely cut in house. The flavor was unique and tasty. The salmon was perfectly cooked and could have used a bit more seasoning. The fresh cracked pepper and table salt added the final touch to enhance the flavor. Not pictured were the skirt steak and Brussels sprouts. Both were tasty and made cooked properly despite the communicated prep from the kitchen relayed to the table. Overall I'll return to the restaurant to try different options and to have more cocktails. The staff adjusted rather well considering the minor communication challenges and everyone left happy and satisfied with their meal. 3.9 out of 5

    Came here for lunch. The place was beautiful decorated. The front of the restaurant is airy and bright while the back is darker and cool feel to it. The staff was amazing and super friendly. I wish the food was better. The french toast i ordered was under cooked. The center of the bread was super soggy and wet. The chicken sandwich was okay. The drinks were pricey and nothing special.

    This place is so welcoming. The bartender and waiters personable and kind and the fried pickles with buttermilk ranch dressing and amazing.

    Shrimp & Grits
    Karen O.

    I enjoyed my brunch at Sisters in BK. The restaurant is beautiful and well decorated. The food was good and the service was spot on. I ordered a matcha latte, a whiskey with elderberry cocktail , and the shrimp with grits as my main. The shrimp and grits were okay. I just wished for stronger flavors in the dish. For my own personal taste the grits were too watery. I asked for hot sauce to top it off: which greatly enhanced the meal for me. My friends ordered the Chilaquiles. Their food looked great and they had no complaints. This place was definitely packed. I highly recommend making reservations. Patrons in front of us attempted to get seats but were turned away as they were fully booked; even the bar seats were taken up at the time. What i appreciated most was the good service. We never felt neglected by our server and they also gave us enough time without feeling rushed. If you're looking for a good brunch spot give Sisters a try.

    Skirt steak
    Giselle B.

    Sisters is a charming restaurant that serves farm to table food which is absolutely delicious. During the day, it's light and airy due to the sky light and design. At night, it's moody and sultry with low lights. Perfect for solo, friends or romantic dates, i would recommend Sisters for all of your needs. I've only been here for dinner and drinks but in the 3 times I've been, it's never disappointed. The first two times I've come here, I've sat at the bar and the service there has always been attentive and enjoyable. The drinks are cute and fun- my go to is the Orpheus. It reminds me of a tropical island everytime i drink it. I had the skirt steak for dinner and it was delicious- perfectly seasoned and cooked medium rare- i was obsessed. The only thing i would say is that the service at the tables was just okay. Wasn't anything to write home about- my friend and i sat right against the wall at the entrance so it wasn't the best. And we fluctuated between two staff members. The woman was sweet and checked in at appropriate times. The man popped in and out randomly and it was confusing on who we should order with- especially we couldn't order another drink before we ended the night. But nevertheless, it was such a good spot- good food, drinks, ambient light and the music isn't too loud. What more can you ask for?

    Chicken Wings
    Cici M.

    Came here after First Saturday's in BK for a quick bite . There was a bit of a line before we sat eventually at the bar. The wings I'd for sure recommend, it has a little spice to them but I remember them being sweet too! 10/10! Whereas with the classic burger, nothing spectacular but still good!

    Savory French Toast
    Matthew G.

    Today I went to Sisters in Brooklyn for brunch and had such a great experience. I love the aesthetic of the restaurant...warm, inviting, and stylish without feeling pretentious. I ordered the savory French toast dish as my entrée, which comes topped with pulled pork and a fried egg. I ate the egg and pulled pork together first, then poured the maple syrup over the French toast & everything actually paired really well. They use real maple syrup, and after the savory richness of the pulled pork, the sweetness tied everything together perfectly. I also ordered fries, which were freshly cut, crispy, and fried to perfection. I finished brunch with an espresso martini. I love a good one that leans into the strong espresso flavor...balanced, not overly sweet and this one checked all the boxes. My service was sweet and attentive from beginning to end, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, I loved my brunch at Sisters and will definitely be back!

    Sisters is such a beautiful restaurant. The atmosphere feels warm and welcoming the moment you walk in, with natural lighting and plants all around that make it feel so peaceful. The food was absolutely amazing! We had the mac and cheese which was creamy and full of flavor and had a perfectly cooked, juicy burger. We ordered matcha tea and The fresh orange juice which was very refreshing . Also the costumer service was 10/10 . Everything about our visit made it such a wonderful experience!

    I've been here twice in the same month and I have some conflicting feelings. I'll preface the food review by saying the staff are awesome and helpful (especially with recommendations) and this place is always packed, but still manages to be super comfortable. The decor inside is very pretty and feels like a cozy cabin in a verdant valley somewhere. Now the bacon egg and cheese I ordered was good, but it was not better than the one at my local deli flavourwise. The three stars I gave was earned by a yummy fish sandwich I got here. The sauce was lacking flavour, but the fish was fried so well that it was okay. My friend ordered a chicken sandwich burger and unfortunately, he was not at all impressed. The sandwich was not warm enough, lacked flavour (especially salt) and was a bit dry. Because it's so hit or miss, I will try one more time and hope for the best! Otherwise, I'll just recommend this place for drinks.

    I've been here three times now for different reasons and I'm never impressed. The first time I went was for dinner and I ordered a burger and it was good, but nothing outstanding. The second time I went I was there for brunch and ordered a salad. Both times I felt like the menu wasn't stand out. With all the people that I've been with, no one felt like their food was something worth writing home about. This last time that I went, it was just for drinks with friends, and I will say it was nice that the bar in the back was not crowded and had a lot of seating. However, I ordered a drink with the bartender and it was just me at the bar, it wasn't crowded. She walked away, came back and was talking to another bartender, walked away again and then came back to me and asked me if I had ordered something and then I had to repeat my order. Of course it is not a big deal, but little things like that matter.

    I had a great meal here with two friends on a Friday evening. We all loved the atmosphere and the food was great! We made a reservation which was good because it did fill up quickly that evening. The service was very friendly and helpful with suggestions. We shared the fried Brussels sprouts which came with a great aioli type sauce. We also had sweet potato fries that came with a great aioli dip. For my main I shared the kale salad with salmon on top. It was great and very filling. We had to take some home as leftovers. I also recommend getting the iced hibiscus tea if you want something non-alcoholic. They do have some mocktails, but the hibiscus tea was very refreshing on a hot summer day!

Walked in and was able to get a seat without reservation, but it definitely filled up by 6/7 pm. The place is dimly lit and the tables are quite small. For the food, we got their Brussel sprouts, shrimp, salmon entree and chicken entree. Our favorite were definitely the shrimp. But everything else when eaten together tasted a bit too greasy and felt monotonous in terms of flavor. Brussel sprouts were fried and held to a decent amount of oil, then the addition of tahini made it even more oily. Pan chicken we expected whole pieces of chicken but it was more like a thin chicken cutlet. The salmon came with a cauliflower puree which tasted so rich (with butter), but I couldn't finish it bc it was so rich.

    This was an easy five star review for dinner--we had come here a couple of times for their four…read morecourse menu and were just delighted by the exceptional food and experience, not to mention the well-crafted cocktails and excellent wine to pair with your thoughtful meal. We were, however, a bit disappointed over recent times that they pulled back from their original plan and stated mission of including the service charge in the cost--it both seemed worker forward and made the cost seem more reasonable, with service charge built into the fixed price. Now the cost seems like any other nice restaurant--far above and beyond the printed menu price. Don't get me wrong, it is exceptional dinner and still well worth it, but a mental adjustment. Their rotating dinner menu (fixed menu, now 3 and 5 course options for different price points) is a brilliant move, meaning you can find something seasonal and new and inventive every couple of weeks. We can't afford to come every two weeks, but we do look forward to the new menu release every two weeks to judge our level of temptation. I'd also note that they apply their same model to breakfast--it is slow service, without bar service as far as we could tell. It was dinner speed at a more bustling brunch time. The food was still stellar--delicious sourdough breakfast sandwich and fabulous spiced pumpkin waffle (even if I had to fight for the advertised maple syrup)--but the service painfully slow. It works over a four course dinner with cocktails, but feels a bit more interminable as you stare at your number for breakfast for 30+ minutes--I think they need to adjust their approach here. Overall we are so grateful to have this gem in our neighborhood--fabulous food, great service... truly some of the best food and service in a neighborhood lacking great options for both. I know we are all feeling tariffs and inflation and cost of living, but the pricing approach/change has moved it from a "let's see the new menu every two weeks" to a more occasional splurge, and I'd be wary of the breakfast/brunch experience if you aren't prepared for a very leisurely day.

All of the food was pretty good and tasted fresh. I'm not sure how often they change their menu, but I would definitely come back!

But this is a reminder that no matter how good your cocktails are, no matter how delicious your food is, service is king, and a 20% automatic gratuity can often enable some pretty terrible staff management and lackadaisical attitudes. What a waste. I came here on Tuesday night with my top-tier chum to grab a drink before the Nets/Celtics game. I showed up about 15 minutes before she did and was able to secure two spots at the bar before her arrival. While I waited for her, I ordered a Dream Catcher, which sounded super tasty (Patron, and a lot of pineapple vibes)...and then I waited some more. The bartender was nice but she was just WAY too slow. She wasn't able to multitask and my drink literally took 10-15 minutes to make, which is just not acceptable, especially when it was clear it was the only one she was working on. It showed up a minute before my friend did, and my 15-minute head start was rendered completely moot. The other ominous development right from the start? While the bartender was slowly making the drink, two members of the waitstaff were just hanging out at the end of the bar playing on their phones. So already, it was clear that the support staff hadn't been managed/instructed to pitch in during periods of need. The drink itself was actually really good; it just took a ridiculous amount of time for her to make, which to me is both a strong indicator that you need to train her to do this quickly without losing the quality of the beverage and also ensuring that you have at least one other person helping her behind the bar. The bar itself was pretty packed and there wasn't a moment where she wasn't doing something. Read the room and get off your phone. That to me is an unforgiveable sin. When my friend showed up, she also ordered the Dream Catcher, and we got the Crab Rangoon and Shrimp Tempura apps to munch on. The apps came out pretty quickly and were really good - fried perfectly, which I think is the area where it's easy to overdo it and potentially ruin these items. Huge points there and made the service problems even more frustrating. We weren't provided with napkins/silverware to eat the apps, so my chum had to wander around the establishment looking for them (no one assisted her in that search). The slow bartending reared its head immediately and my chum also had to deal with a mystifying 15-minute wait for her cocktail. We had about 40 minutes to play with before we had to be at the game, but because the service was so mediocre, we couldn't risk it - so they missed out on a second drinks and apps. Just leaving money on the table. We were so disappointed walking out of there. A lot of the qualities you'd want to pre-game before an NBA matchup are here, and I didn't even get into the ambience, which was both pretty chill with dim lighting but also had a little electricity in it. They have a ton of good material to work with . But if you can't trust the staff to be engaged and provide quality hospitality, it doesn't really matter. We had a conversation about coming back here some other time potentially but they just don't deserve it. Also, if you're trying this hard to figure out a way to strategically have a good time at a bar, that's all you need to know - you've answered your own question. And when we saw the 20% gratuity added? Final slap in the face. Frankly, if you're going to do that, at the very least let us know when you hand us the bill that it's added on; it's so easy to miss in a darkened bar, and given the other issues I just can't give the benefit of the doubt there. But this is why automatic gratuities need to be abolished. The bartender and the rest of the staff have no incentive to roll up their sleeves and provide a positive experience - they're getting paid no matter what. Hopefully management really takes a step back to reconsider their stance here or at least improve the staffing so they don't take all of the legitimate positives here and throw them in the trash can. You should be building on the good stuff, not canceling it out.

Today however it wasn't pizza that brought me here, it was the famous Emmy Burger. To begin with the atmosphere of the restaurant is dim lighting a few tables with a reasonable sized bar in the middle of the room. They also have an open kitchen concept where just past the bar you can see the cooks working. My server Inda was polite and knowledgeable about the menu. My burger was excellent, normally I don't eat my burger with a knife and folk, but in this case with all the cheese and sauce oozing down the sides, not to mention the caramelized onions, it was necessary. (If I were home I wouldn't mind having burger juices running down my arm, but other people were eating in the restaurant also). The tiny pickles which I can't remember the name of were an added treat to the burger. I decided to order mine with the loaded fries. Just imagine the ground burger with all the toppings covering french fries and add melted white cheese. Since I was alone I didn't order a pizza because how would I eat it all, but next time I will try the pizza. I don't mind paying extra for a burger when it's aged beef and the taste is great. I definitely recommend this location. There is a fast food burger restaurant next door to Emily's but I can't imagine there burgers compare. I will try them another time and let you know. That's all for now, see you on my next review.
