The grilled cheese here is amazing. I always got it with tomato as my side bc obviously. Also like the grass fed burger and chicken sandwich. Great neighborhood spot for a quick bite. read more

Unassuming delightful little nook. The sandwiches are great, and their brunches are unique and memorable. I keep coming back again and again, finding different ways to enjoy dinner and brunch. Definitely a staple if you want something v Brooklyn. read more

The falafel burger is soooo good. Nice area and great food. Lots of vegetarian options!

Great food, Great portions (NYC standard wise), and Great customer service. Also they have free WiFi and have a great happy hour!

I came here craving a really good juicy burger. I didn't get one. The meat was dry and tough. the fries were good though.

Awful for vegans. I loved this place and always had good service until tonight. I very clearly said tofu schnitzel. I got home, bit into it and too late noticed it was chicken. I haven't eaten chicken in YEARS. The thought immediately disgusted me and I called in tears only to be told the cashier heard me say chicken. I asked to speak to a manager and he said no one was there which in itself is ridiculous. No manager or supervisor present? Okay. I asked what I was supposed to do in this situation and he said he wasn't sure and maybe I can come back and maybe get a refund. I'm so disappointed and will never return. read more

This place could be great but some rookie mistakes really ruined my lunch here. In a completely empty restaurant my table was totally sticky. Even after asking to have it cleaned it was sill sticky. The burger was good, but over cooked. I was never asked what temperature I wanted it so I assumed they cook it medium rare for everyone. Instead it was medium well. The meat was also over worked which made it like biting into a sponge. Had it been cooked correctly it would have been incredible. Their beer selection is awful too. No interesting craft stuff or draft, just macro brews in bottles. Decor is also terrible. It's like eating in a bodega. That's probably why so many people come to the window and then leave. The sweet potatoes fries were amazing though. Best I've ever had. With some common sense improvements this place could really be great. Too bad for me, read more

This place is a great local gem with fast casual vibes. The grilled cheese with bacon was amazing, and my boyfriend loved his chicken schnitzel. The regular fries and sweet potato fries were both perfectly seasoned. I definitely recommend getting the smoked tomato aioli on the side, though the avocado ranch wasn't anything too special. The chocolate was so rich and perfect. Also have a cheap booze menu, could add a shot to the regular shakes for $4 or get a white russian shake. read more

The burger was good, the service was not. My friend said, "hi" to the cashier, and she was stone cold silent. She was the complete opposite of warm and friendly. Too bad, the food was good, but I'm probably not coming back because of the service. read more

I live down the street, and I was suspicious of this place when it opened. It's a bit pricey, and there are cheaper quality sandwich options in the neighborhood (like Azure across the street). Then I tried the tofu schnitzel sandwich. It's incredible (make sure to get it buffalo-style). It comes with a generously portioned side as well (I recommend the kale/quinoa salad or the tomato soup). The kale-quinoa salad is also quite good as an entree. I have also tried the veggie sandwich. It's alright, but not as amazing as the tofu schnitzel. This place is also good with online orders. It's always ready on time for pickup. No complaints. read more

This place is amazing, the food is delicious, the staff are super nice. I'm on a keto diet and this place not only helps me meet my diet but also has great tasting food. I usually get the pernil which is really flavorful with a side of kale. Their pickled vegetables are alright but the tomato soup is to die for. Definitely recommend this place. read more

delicious food & great staff. it's still sort of a new restaurant, but it's already become a neighborhood gem for sure. also, hands down one of the best restaurants for brunch read more

My son and I finally made it to this wonderful beautiful and so cool place. We had the Chicken Kale Salad and the Cheese Puffs. The portion of the salad was so huge but did I mention how good it was??? The perfect salad! The Kale Carrots and Cucumber was so fresh and tasty with lots of Quinoa in a light dressing, just perfect. On top it had a crispy piece of chicken that completely hit the spot....yummmm! And the cheese puffs, crispy on the outside and so soft and fluffy on the inside with the perfect sweet dipping sauce...oh my...We will definitely be there soon...next week...tomorrow lol Thank you guys! Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

YUM!! My roommates just told me about this place and it is everything they said it would be! Just a block and a half from the Montrose L stop is probably the best burger in town. Both their fresh cut french fries and sweet potato fries are amazing. This food is fresher than your mama. The best tomato soup is here for a super cold day and the meatloaf is oddly a great pairing with it. Try it. Be about it. You can't go wrong. This place is the business!! read more

The best place to eat in the neighborhood. The drink deals at brunch are amazing, the service is excellent, and the sweet potato fries are the literal best! Don't deny yourself anymore and eat here! read more

My new fav spot for quick eats and yummy food. There are items on the menu that are new and full of flavor. Pricing is reasonable and your taste buds will not be disappointed. Recently had the maple bacon milk shake and have to say Awesome! The neighborhood just got a little gem that's sure to give you a mouth gasm. read more

The Brooklyn Tree - Comfort Food Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Had the Avocado Toast and was completely satisfied!!! Customer service was great!!! Can't wait to try the other meals.

Awesome local spot!! The juice I grabbed today was really tasty and refreshing. Plus, the guys who run the place are really personable and community oriented. Love. They have WiFi too! read more

Cozy little spot with a nice, friendly atmosphere. Felt like it could double for brunch/lunch with a group or, since it has a bit of a coffee shop vibe, as a place to go solo with a book or something. Menu isn't flashy but hits on all the brunch essentials: eggs, pancakes, and (especially) the garlicky home fries were all tasty. read more

The decor is very plain but The food was insanely good. Like so freaking good I may have to go back again today.

Love Brooklyn tree! Been meaning to give it five stars for a while bc both the table service and the delivery service is absolutely the best. The food is so good the quinoa kale salad is my favorite salad in Brooklyn and they're super nice and have a good drinks selection. Ordered a tuna sandwich for delivery and wasn't feeling the flavor profile and they came and dropped off a different sandwich for us even though they let us know that's the flavor profile we should expect and it was nothing out of the ordinary. This place rox read more

Great for take out lunch or dinner. Everything here has been good, and I don't feel hungry after. Try the chicken schnitzel sandwich with salad, or the classic burger with fries. They also have vegetarian and vegan options too which is a plus. read more

We came here after hours of dancing and were starving! I ordered the tofu schnitzel which was absolutely delicious!!! My friends ordered grilled cheese and burger and all raved about the food. The staff was super friendly and patient with us as we stood there trying to decide what to order as it was a first time for all of us. I would definitely go back :) read more

Pretty good food and a lovely atmosphere. I'm glad they have so many veggie items that are far more interesting than the usual hummus or grilled veggie sandwich. I went with the panko crusted tofu shnitzel sandwich with seasoned fries - legit. They're pretty reasonably priced, including a side with the sandwich, which is always good. read more

We order dinner from here all the time. They are super fast with delivery. I LOVE the apple salad- the dressing is amazing. And add bacon!! Adds just the right amount of salt. My sister also loves both the quinoa salad and the meatloaf. Finally, the sweet potato fries are bomb. read more

My experience was just average. The burger wasn't spectacular. The English muffin doesn't complement the burger or sauce at all--it's actually quite bitter tasting. I wish I ordered the Mac and cheese that most people raves about in previous reviews. I will most likely return to try that. read more

Mac & Cheese are ok but doesnt taste like cheese... taste like mushroom... the cheese bites are good... will not order again... Better places out there. Not what I was expecting! read more

I live around the area. I always come back here! One of my fav spot in the neighborhood, guys are super friendly. Love all the food here!

Terrible experience. I came here specifically for the Mac and Cheese and it looked nothing like what's advertised. I dined in and it came to me cold and very tasteless. I also ordered the lemonade (which the hostess initially forgot to bring to my table until I had to ask) and it tasted like vinegar. It was so bad I had to ask the host and manager for refunds and was denied. Terrible food, customer service and overall experience. Perhaps the other food may be decent, but I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Disclosure: I was tempted to write a well written, appallingly bad review. One that would surely deter any gourmet snobs and self-declared foodies from ever wanting to visit or order from this truly unique place. However, in a rare spasm of reviewing delight, I have chosen to acknowledge and reveal The Brooklyn Tree for what it really is: a very rare exception to the norm. Full disclosure: I have only ordered from this restaurant, and then only twice! Here's what I got though: 1) actual flavor and 2) nothing over-salted. Both are available in awkwardly small supply in this city. So few providers of nourishment are aware of the fact that salt is a flavor enhancer and not an actual flavor in itself. So, yes, I am aware that 1) and 2) are highly correlated. Whatever. It's the "rare" part that matters! The food I got was very, very real and an enormously satisfying experience for my tastebuds that have to suffer so often when at the mercy of a typical NYC 3rd party provider... Some details: the veggie sandwich is incredible; think bread that is actually like, well, bread; the way it should be. For all those Europeans out there who intuitively understand what I mean: this is as close as it gets! It hits the spot... That's why I got it again on my second order... I also got two drinks: the ginger mint tea and the watermelon fresca. It doesn't get fresher unless you do it yourself. And even then, you likely can't do it better. No sugars or sweeteners added. Hallelujah!! Oh, and you can't do it faster either. Delivery was unheard of timely. Faster than seamless texting me that the order is out for delivery... Some small things just make me really happy... And then finally, the "cup of soup" side without checking the daily special... It was a gazpacho. I really don't like gazpacho. Soup should be served hot, after all. Guess what? I loved it. I can't believe it. I'm stunned. To the proprietors: don't change a thing. Unless it's pricing. Raise the prices of everything *drastically* as soon as you start getting more traffic than you can comfortably handle. The price elasticity of a rare quality product can easily sustain the moderate decline in turnover. Your profit margin and your loyal subjects will thank you! To their guests: Cherish! read more

Came in here for breakfast. It's a hole in the wall. There is no dishwasher, so you are drinking out of plastic cups and eating with plastic utensils. My tofu scramble was extremely bland. Service was so so. I would never eat there again. Over rated on yelp imo. read more

Not 100% sure how they make their veggie loaf, but goddamn, get it in a sandwich and you won't be sorry. Fries are in a league of their own as well. Strongly recommend getting a Mane Event across the street at Duck Duck, ordering on your phone, and picking up 15 minutes later. read more

This place just opened down the street from me and I noticed it as soon as I walked by. Looks like your typical upscale healthy Brooklyn establishment and has good music playing and an overall cool vibe. Food was good, I got the tuna sandwich with kale on the side and it was definitely solid. Would be a five star review if it wasn't for the price. $11 for a grilled cheese and $8 for a bowl of soup, pretty ridiculous. My sandwich alone with nothing else ended up being 14.50 after tax. read more

My daughter polished the grass fed burger with fries. I had half of my meatloaf sandwich with potato fries. Soooo good. The rest I took home. She also had vanilla shake. Service is excellent. Food is always awesome. Didn't have time to take pics. We gobbled them right away. read more

Just ordered delivery via Seamless and, dayum, that food was good! The schnitzel mac and cheese just kinda changed my life. Also, the sugar snap cole slaw. Fancy tuna melt and burger also great. Delicious, delicious, delicious! read more

Food is really delicious and staff is super friendly. Kind of a secret spot but such a gem. Highly recommend it!

The best tuna melt I've ever had .....plus the side order of the cheese mash potatoes. Amazing! Not to mention, it's a friendly locally owned family business. Love all of it! And I just found out they serve beer and wine. Score!!!! read more

The strata is delicious! It's like a savory French toast with a creamy sauce. They also have two for one bloodies for brunch play great music and movies. Loved it. read more

This is my first Yelp post, reserved for my favorite place in Brooklyn. Great vibes and fresh quality food. Avocado toast is best I've had. Tomato soup and grilled cheese. Chx schnitzel sandwich. $3 Tecates. But lastly, the cucumber and tomato salad has changed my life. Bk Tree is a must go!!!!!! read more

This has quickly become one my "go to" spots for delivery in the hood. The food is delicious and their delivery is seriously FAST! I mean lightning speed. Once I got my order in 15 minutes. But the food is outstanding and I keep meaning to try new things but I keep going back to old favorites. The chicken schnitzel is amazing! Perfectly pounded chicken thigh, breaded and fried to a perfectly moist on the inside, crisp on the outside schnitzel. They put a very, very light touch if honey mustard vinaigrette that at first I was skeptical about but then I got addicted. The white cheddar mashed potatoes are bomb as is the kale quinoa salad. I've also had the tomato soup which is creamy and amazing though a little oily, which is probably what makes it so good. The other main I've had was the vegan meatloaf, which is awesome if you want something savory and hearty (but not heavy) without meat. So happy I discovered this place. read more
