Chicken Ceasar wrap
Rachel B.

Go to spot for wraps , sandwiches etc. Their chicken Ceasar wrap is the best I've had ever. Litterally everything from this place is incredible and consistently excellent.

Avocado Toast Matcha Latte
Reema S.

I have been on a quest of trying all the hidden gem cafes around my neighborhood, and I may have just hit the jackpot with this beautiful space. As soon as you walk in to Slimak, the wood floors and sun filled space welcomes you with a warm embrace. There is so much space to set up and sit with your laptop if you wanted to. The baristas and staff are all so friendly. I ordered myself the matcha latte and avocado toast and perched myself up on the bar seating. The iced matcha latte was A-ok, maybe a better job can be done frothing it as it was settling on the bottom in small grains. The avocado toast was delicious with pistachio pesto, fresh tomatoes and a delicious runny egg on top. I do wish there was more avocado on the toast, and that the bread was a bit thicker and more substantial. Other than these slight improvements I found the place cute and charming and will definitely be back to try their other menu items or baked goods. Great little neighborhood cafe!!

Slimak offers many breakfast, brunch, and lunch items. They also have specials during the weekend. Coffee and pastries are quick, easy, and tasty. Order by the bar and grab a seat in their cozy seating areas at the front and in the back. There are a couple of seats by the bar as well.

Cute and cozy breakfast place in Your favorite neighborhood Sunset park! :) Spacious inside space! They are very sweet people and they offer many things. You can find your favorite meals in the restaurant. Must try their fresh orange juice.

Went for Sunday brunch around 11am. There were some seats open but it was pretty packed for the most part. Love this cafe! Definitely worth a visit if you're in/from the area.

Spending time in Industry City today and decided to eat outside of IC food hall. I've passed Slimsk numerous times on s bus and bookmarked it. I was in the mood for comfort food on a rainy day and planned to visit IC to do some shopping. Slimak*is on off the beaten path, next to the beautiful Saint Nicholas Church which I can imagine it being busy on a Sunday morning. When I entered, it was quiet with a few patrons dining and tapping away on their laptops. There is instructions to step up to the counter, order and then find a seat. I knew what I wanted: egg white omelet with cheddar and spinach, salad instead of toast and home fries and a cup of coffee. I served myself complimentary water from the jug and found a table. Once seated, I sipped my water and made an IC shopping list .My order arrived within ten minutes, just the omelet. The waitress apologized that their coffee machine was broken and asked if an Americano was okay to make instead. Absolutely! My omelet looked delicious but the only thing missing was the home fries. I guess the way I ordered was lost in translation ( at first they asked me to repeat it since they thought I said waffles vs no toast). Healthy Fawn voice said " it's better without home fries " and won over cheating Fawn voice ( tell them the home fries are missing!). The salad had zucchini ( yum), tomatoes, carrots and lettuce with a side of delicious balsamic vinegar. The omelet was absolutely scrumptious and fresh. Slimak offers numerous options: breakfast all day, soups, salads and desserts. The service is very friendly and accommodating. I have a new place to dine at when visiting IC and am happy I discovered this gem. * Aah you noticed. Slimak is Polish for small snail. Interesting...

What a Cozy and modern place, cappuccino was foamy and smooth. Service was excellent. A Hidden Gem brunch place in sunset park.

Chicken poblano soup
Marc K.

Nice healthy neighborhood joint. Very relaxing and down to earth. Stopped in for soup as they had a few choices. The chicken poblano soup was delicious. Would prefer the bowl size to be a little bigger but it was big on taste! Order at register and they bring it to you. Will definitely visit again.

Cute breakfast place!! Very friendly and patient staff. The blue latte was so yummy and sweet - I really enjoyed. We only came in for a snack but the rest of the menu and the food coming out looked so good. We'll be back to try other options on the menu.

2 poached eggs with sautéed kale & avocado
Marie S.

Slimak is the place to go for a five star brunch. It doesn't get any better than this. I tried the Sautéed Kale with Avocado and 2 Poached Eggs last week. It came with a seven grain toast; it was really really fresh & delicious. Better than the recent brunches I've had in Manhattan & a lot less expensive too. Traveling around Brooklyn, I've been highly impressed by the diversity & quality of the food. I think you can find great restaurants in many neighborhoods but when it comes to value, I'm discovering that areas like Sunset Park in Brooklyn, Harlem in Manhattan, and Flushing & Jackson Heights Queens are where I'm going to more & more. Blame inflation, boredom, post pandemic cabin fever or the moon but I'm happy to travel for a great affordable meal.

Always a great time coming here. Grace and the rest of the staff kill it every time. In the past…read moreI've only gotten drinks. But yesterday, I did rhe Boozy Brunch (90min for $40). Definitely worth another trip. I got the Cajun club (w/o tomatoes) sandwich and the frozen margarita. Both were soooo good! The place might be small but it's big on the "home away from home"/chill atmosphere!

I will never return to this establishment. What was supposed to be a brief, comforting brunch visit…read moreafter attending a funeral turned into an embarrassing and disappointing experience. I chose this place because I had visited a few times in the past and expected a positive environment. While there, I ran into an old friend who was accompanying individuals with special needs. They informed us about the R&B karaoke event, and we attempted to participate respectfully and supportively. Unfortunately, after participating, the DJ became rude and dismissive. My friends decided not to continue because each time they attempted to request a song, the DJ was unkind and impatient, seemingly unaware--or unconcerned--that they were individuals with special needs. The situation escalated when I attempted to calmly address the disrespect. Instead of listening, the bartender repeatedly accused me of being drunk simply because I was defending myself after a rude comment. I was not intoxicated; I was advocating for respectful treatment. Even the DJ's own companion appeared visibly shocked by the comment made toward me, as if anticipating a reaction. I remained composed and professional despite being deeply upset. What disappointed me most was the staff's decision to defend the DJ's behavior rather than acknowledge how inappropriate and disrespectful the interaction was. This reflects poorly on how this establishment treats people--especially those who deserve patience, understanding, and dignity. I came expecting an enjoyable brunch experience and left feeling ashamed for having trusted this place. It is clear that the venue prioritizes protecting mediocre DJs with minimal local popularity over treating customers with basic respect. Poor organization, lack of proper event management, and unprofessional staff behavior made this experience unacceptable. I have visited many establishments and have never felt so disrespected. I will not be returning.

TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups…read morewere the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection I was at this unique Guatemalan (ish) restaurant a while back with one of my groups. I said "ish" because the menu has dishes from all over, ranging from sandwiches to BBQ ribs to Guatemalan and Mexican soups. It's out there, and even though not everything works that well, it's fun, and if you can't find something you want to order here, you probably shouldn't go out to restaurants. There was also live jazz music that night, which was loud but nice to listen to. Since it was happy hour, a bunch of us got drinks. I went with a maracuya margarita, which was decent; someone else had a jalapeño margarita, someone had a beer, and someone had a mojito. There were a few nice hot sauces on the table, with the red one reminding me of salsa macha as it had a smoky kick and a spicier green sauce reminiscent of ají verde. They gave us some complimentary blue corn chips and a very mild black bean dip, which was tasty enough and hard to complain about, as it was free. From the appetizers, we got the Hot Figs for $15.95, consisting of honey goat cheese, corn tortilla chips, and plum + pumpkin seeds. This was a unique and fun blend and reminded me more of something you would find in a wine bar. The mix of sweet and salty, with a bit of crunch from the seeds, was nice. This was good, and I would recommend it for a table rather than for a solo diner. There was also The Zingy Salad for $21.95, featuring zucchini spirals, yuzu, tomato, onion, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, and a jalapeño infusion. $18.95. The salad was fine with a bit of crunch and a mild spiciness. It was fine, though a bit wet, for lack of a better word. The best dishes of the night were the soups, which each had its own distinct flavor profile. My sight presence went to the Pepián for $21.95, consisting of chicken, pumpkin/sesame seeds, green tomatillo, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, carrots, chili coban/pasta/guaque, and potato + rice. There was plenty of tender chicken inside, with the soup having a nice roasted flavor with some spice and a bit of sourness. The potatoes and rice on the bottom added more sustenance to this dish. Almost equally delicious was the Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo for a dollar more with shredded chicken, tomato, black pepper, garlic, onions, peas, chickpeas, corn, achiote, chipotle, Monterey jack cheese, and crunchy blue corn tortilla chips. By comparison, this was a bit heartier, with the melted cheese and shredded tortilla chips inside, similar to soups found in Mexican cuisine. While I also liked the mix of veggies a bit more in this one, as it added a bit more texture, I still slightly preferred the flavor of the other soup, as I usually prefer a bit more spice. The rest of the food was fine. The TPC sandwich for $19.95 with chicken, peanut butter, coconut cream, ginger, cilantro, pickled carrots, and lime was fine. For the number of ingredients, I found it a bit sweet, likely from the cream and the peanut butter mix. The bread was nice, but it also fell apart. It came with a nice side salad with a good vinaigrette. The most expensive at $24.95 were the Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs, consisting of baby back ribs with rice and beans. The ribs were almost a bit too tender as they lacked any bite, which was nice, but the sauce was a bit too generic tasting, reminding me of Sweet Baby Ray's or something similar. The rice and beans were standard. This was also OK. Next came some dessert. There was first the $12.95 Rosemary Churros served with dulce de leche & chocolate dips. While I'm not sure if it worked, the rosemary did add a unique smell and a bit of flavor, and at least it wasn't generic. The churros themselves were hot, and the sauces were standard, with my preference being the dulce de leche. I also ordered a Champurrado for $7.95, which was fine. It wasn't as thick as I expected, though perhaps the style is a bit different than the champurrados I rarely buy from Mexican street carts. The chocolate flavor was very nice, though, and I like that it wasn't too sweet. Another person got a $4 Alfajor, which I got a bite of, which was standard. This place is a bit hard to rate. The two soups were wonderful, I liked the appetizers, and I found a couple of the other dishes just OK. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'm not craving to go back. This would be the perfect 3.5, but I'll round up as that doesn't exist.

Every table has a placemat with crayons which is such a fun way to keep kids and adults entertained. The food was delicious and tasted fresh, living up to their messaging on sourcing local food. We ordered the egg katsu sandwich and the eggs rothko. The sandwich was very well made with a nice crisp panko crusting that didnt feel heavy on the oil, and yet still managed to have a light airy egg inside. The eggs rothko was buttery and flavorful but still managed to not feel too heavy. The broiled tomatos on the side were a nice touch to contrast the egg and toast from the main dish. Overall I enjoyed this place and would love to come back to try more dishes. The vibe was friendly and welcoming, making it the perfect weekend brunch spot.

If I were to do again, no sausage, I don't believe you need it for this sandwich.

There are other items on the menu that cost the same price but will make you feel more full. 3/5 Customer Service (1-5): The customer service was attentive and nice. 5/5
