French toast
Jessica G.

We came in for brunch around noon on a Saturday and got seated right away. The French toast was great and the fruit was super fresh. We got bottomless and the passion fruit mimosa was my favorite. They are pretty strict about the 90 minute limit, we got about four drinks each and were feeling nice.

Biscuits and gravy

We came for Sunday brunch with a large group, and the staff was very accommodating. The boozy brunch drinks were definitely the star of the show! The food was good, too, making it a great choice for brunch with friends.

Shrimp and lobster
Joannie B.

Came for brunch. 7 minute walk from the train. Nice spot. Ample space. Full bar. Good music. Waitress could be better with checking up on her tables. I liked the different drink options for brunch. Simple menu nothing too fancy or eye catching. I ordered the Jerk chicken hash which is supposed to come with chicken breast, but i barely saw any chicken on my plate and nothing about it was jerked. Instead of a chicken breast it was chicken chunks mixed in with the potatoes. The grits was good. Food was ok. One of the girls had the shrimp and lobster which looked good. Margaritas were good. Dip was ok. Black owned so I went to support.

Cheddar Grits
Justin W.

Sweet Science is a decent brunch spot with cool, loud music from a professional DJ to set the vibe. They have a solid brunch menu with plenty of options and the ability to tag on bottomless mimosas for +$30/p. First off, the food is alright. The burger tasted good but the portion was small. I'd consider more like a slider than a burger. The cheddar grits side is 100% not worth it. Overall for the price, I don't think it was worth it. It'll be a fun time every once in a while.

Crab Cake
Parker G.

What an absolutely and legitimately amazing experience! A space designed to be accessible, comfortable, and yet refined at the same time. Starting with the crab cake, I found it perfectly prepared, delectable, and delicious. I also loved all the cocktails we ordered, which were the perfect mix of strengthen and deliciously unique flavor. For entrees, the Sweet Science Burger and the Catfish Sandwich were both perfect in their preparation and taste. I'm saying this because I truly enjoyed them - yes, they were a bit pricey on the menu, but for me, they completely were warranted when it came to their quality and taste. So i have nothing at ALL to complain about. Not to mention the fact that service was extremely friendly and hospitable. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this place. Great food, service, and vibes. I definitely think it's worth it!

Happy Hour Margarita
Tanya R.

I am a Sweet Science newbie. I had my first Happy Hour experience there yesterday and it will not be my last. Dropped in with a friend who is a Sweet Science regular. I liked the vibe immediately upon entry. Dim but not too dark lighting. Vintage feel. Fully stocked bar and a beautifully framed, larged photo of Biggie on the wall. We started our time there with really good Margaritas. I like mines classic. Ashley, the beautiful bartender made them just right. I sipped my drink and made friends with a really cool guy sitting next to me. He treated me and my friend to tequila shots. We asked for our shots to be served chilled upon my friend's suggestion. It was a great suggestion indeed. I ordered a burger from the hh menu. It was fresh and stacked! I take my burgers well done. I added a fried egg, crispy bacon and extra pickles. It was so good. My friend ordered a biscuit topped with saucy lobster and shrimps from the main menu. She raved about the sauce so I took a little of hers to drizzle over my burger. So good! We were told that Happy Hour is all day on Thursdays so we made a quick run to another spot and then made our way BACK to Sweet Science. I continued my night with rosé, mozzarella sticks, the most delicious mini skillet of crab dip and finally a whiskey sour. I'm late to Sweet Science and their vibe but better late than never. They have great music and large tv's showing sports too. I'll be back again and again. Good stuff!

Sweet Science is such a gem for brunch in Brooklyn! My friend and I were dilly dallying all Sunday so why not stop by S.S to wrap up the festivities. Their brunch goes from 11-5pm, which is generous as most places wrap up brunch by 3pm. We got there around 4pm, grabbed two seats at the bar and ordered the lobster, shrimp & biscuits to split. The food was spot on, very fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Every dish that came out for other patrons also looked good. The vibes were also immaculate. The music was great as the DJ kept the chunzzz coming. The crowd was lively but not overwhelming or overly stimulating like most brunch spots. The space is also welcoming whether you're with friends or flying solo. On top of that, there was plenty of street parking, which is always a win in New York. The only reason I'm giving 4 (it's really a 4.5) stars instead of 5 is because the bartender tossed out my mocktail when I went to the restroom. Like miss ma'am, you take my full glass but not the empty ones still sitting on top the bar. Sigh. She offered to re-make it but I was over it. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and I'll definitely be back for brunch again.

Hey Baby Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich
Stacey H.

Sweet Science is the place to go if you are in the mood for a lowkey , comfy eatery. I went during happy hour and the drinks did not disappoint. I ordered a guava margarita on the rocks and a frozen passion fruit margarita and both drinks were very good. The South Carolina tangy wings were alright to me but my friends loved it. The Maryland limb crab dip was the star of the show for me. (If you are a fan of dips such as artichoke dip or ragu's this would be a meal you enjoy). I also enjoyed the chicken biscuit(we cut it in half to split it via the picture). The chicken biscuit was both sweet and savory and the flavors blended together perfectly. I will definitely come back to this spot , there are many items on the menu that I love to try in the future.

Bar

I love this bar, even if it was where I watched the Knicks get eliminated this past season. This particular spot wasn't a destination for us, it was just an inviting bar on a corner we were walking by. However, it was exactly what we wanted for the evening: cocktails and seats to watch the Knicks, with a good crowd but not so many people that it was unbearable. Sweet Science seems to be exactly what a lot of people need or want, judging by our first visit. They've also got: -A big beautiful bar. -Affordable cocktails. -A great beer selection. -Good music, when the Knicks sound wasn't on. -Huge open air windows, and great tables outside. -Food that we have yet to get down with (I liked the menu though). -Paint & Sip going on in the back that night (along with other events all the time). Plus, I got to mansplain to my wife about how the sweet science is boxing. What else could you ask for?

Shrimp & lobster biscuit
Tamika G.

Wish I was able to say a vibe waa had. Unfortunately was a hit and miss at my visit to sweet science. The music was good..not too loud, energy in the resturant fantastic, the service was cool as well. That's about all the positive I got. Our bottomless mimosa was more like bottles of champagne only. Each flavor lacking and the pitchers lacking a proper balance of juice to champagne. Food was decent. While our shrimp and lobster in it's flavorful sauce paired was the cheesy grits was amazing. The biscuit was dense. Our crabcakes was flavorful, lump crab, fresh avocado and a heap of crispy onions. The steak and eggs was a disaster. Eggs were slapped on the plate and steak was bloody. My temperature request was medium but clearly they did not let the steak rest.

Chicken Parm sandwich

Food is good. I went for happy hour... I love my bartenders Vee and Ashley.. This is one of my go to spots.. Nice little spot

I came here for bottomless brunch with my friends and we had a great time. They don't seat you unless your entire party is present. The restaurant is kind of dark as the rain added to the gloominess unfortunately but we still had a good time. We all got mimosas and you can choose your favor of mango, orange, passionfruit, and guava. I enjoyed passionfruit and guava. A bucket of champagne bottles are brought out so you can make your own mimosas. We ordered: - Hey Baby Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich: I added Cajun fries. This was sooo good. I loved that the chicken had a glaze and wasn't dry. The biscuit as a bun was a great addition/detail. It also came with a salad. I wish the fries were a little crunchier. - Jerk Chicken Hash: my friends enjoyed this - Breakfast Burrito: this looked huge - avocado tomato toast with poached egg Service was a little slow. We had to flag down the servers a few times.

Jerk Chicken Hash  Boneless chicken, potato, onions & peppers cooked in homemade jerk seasoning w/over easy eggs. Served w/cheddar grits

Let's start with the good - the service and ambiance were on point. I went on a Sunday evening around 7pm. It was busy inside, but since I was a solo diner I was seated immediately by the bar. The servers were friendly and attentive. Probably 3-4 different people checked in multiple times throughout the meal. Where I struggle is with the actual burger itself. As a non-resident New Yorker, for me $22.50 is a lot to spend on a burger and fries. It needs to rock my world at that price point. And it just didn't. I got the B&B Burger. The onion ring tasted like it had been refried a second time to make my burger. The bread was crumbly like it was on the verge of going stale. The actual beef patty itself was decent - good flavor. Usually I can overlook an okay burger if the fries are top notch, but these fries were under-seasoned and also 'just okay'. I also got a side of Chicken Tenders. These were good - no complaints here. I really wanted to like this spot, but not sure this would be a return visit for me.

We loved the food…read more Came here on a saturday for lunch before the world cup. We arrived just when it opened I think. The place was pretty quiet. Friendly waitress greeted us and sat us immediately. Menu's came out and they recommended a pizza and burger. We agreed and ordered. Place started to pick up and get busy immediately after we ordered. Food came out pretty quickly. We each had a burger. Not a lot of options on the menu but we all tried the emily burger. It was worth it. Think, juicy and with an amazingly unique taste. The ingredients were high quality, the burger cooked to perfection. The table also split the modern pizza (I think). Not sure what to expect from this one but turns out it was perfect, unique and delicious. The cheese taste really shined through. Overall, we were super happy with the food here.

Fast service and it's really easy to order through their website since customization is seamless…read more Restaurant itself is small, has a very small dispenser of condiments packets, and I'm not a fan of the rough napkins lol. I ordered: * Truffle Maker ($11.59) * Truffle Parmesan Fries ($6.50) * Chicken Bites with BBQ sauce ($8.05) * Large Yuzu Honey Lemonade ($4.00) Truffle maker was pretty good and I was glad I was able to remove the caramelized onions and truffle aioli (I'm picky). The bun is soft and sweet and the burger has a good amount of sautéed mushrooms. Truffle Parmesan fries were pretty standard, but still very good. Yuzu honey lemonade has bits of citrus at the bottom of the drink and it was refreshing. I saved the chicken bites hours later and it was still pretty crispy after being microwave. Texture was reminiscent of Taiwanese popcorn chicken, nicely seasoned. Overall had a pleasant experience, I definitely want to return and try the rest of their menu.

Considering the height of the table, they were the perfect height. I like the music that was being played. The music wasn't too loud or too low. I was able to make conversation without the music being overwhelming. Service 10/10 This joint has a self-order/self-checkout option, which makes it easier. They also have a restroom. Not all restaurants have restrooms that are made available to customers. That is an A+ in my book. Food 10/10 I ordered Hous Burger (hold the onions. Don't at me) it was pretty good. The taste of their burgers is different from most of the burger places I have tried before. I have also ordered Yuzu Honey Lemonade. I was trying to taste the honey in the lemonade. I guess I was expecting too much. The drink was refreshing. I may try the Matcha Yuzu Lemonade next. I met a gentleman who goes by the name Ten P aka 10pushups on IG. He recommended that I try his cola shake. That is what I got, plus the whipped cream. I was honestly looking for the taste of Coca-Cola because Cola is in the name. Regardless of what I expected, the shake was pretty good. I am not a shake person, so when he asked me to try it, I made an exception. Overall: I plan on coming back to Bun Haus. This was good eats.

Tasteful decor, everything is bustling, and folks seem genuinely nice. I was hyped for the double cheeseburger I've read about, but came away disappointed. I'm so bummed because I wanted to be part of the cool kids club who hails the burger as one of NY's best. I very badly wanted to like it, so I felt more disappointed in myself than the restaurant. I found it very salty, so much so that I couldn't finish it. Perhaps it was the egg I added, or maybe my order was a one off, if the person who prepared it had a heavier hand. So take my opinion with a grain of salt (but not the burger, it has plenty). I'm definitely the minority here.
