If you like pizza, arcade machines, and slightly childish atmosphere, it's a hit. Perfect for kids, inducing small kids. Woks great for birthday parties, with a whole personalized spectacle around it. Chuck, the mascot, also periodically appears to dance with kids.

Had my son's 3rd birthday here! Last minute but they were able to accommodate for my family and friends. They have reasonable prices: 2 hour pass is the way to go! Very Toddler friendly...best part CHUCK E. Cheese himself! So inviting and playful its halloween season so the theme was perfect! I highly recommend

Not very many games some were out of order. It does have an indoor trampoline but you have to purchase socks and pay extra when you buy a game card. It gets extremely crowded. There are tables for birthday party reservations and open tables for those who don't have a party reservation.

Good beer, nice chill place. If you want to chock order their dry sandwiches.
Orlando Ramirez - 2 months ago
Favorite German beer hall in the area! Good selection of beers and wine, fun atmosphere, great service and food! They have trivia night every Wednesday, board games to play, fussball table, big comfy loungey couches, communal tables etc. Fun bar! I also LOVE that they have vegan sausage option on their menu!! I’ll definitely go back next time I’m in the area!

We love DSK and have been coming for years but the last 3 times we went they told us someone had called out sick and we’re very disorganized with food distribution. It’s also never “sorry about the wait” they seem pretty impatient towards any questions from customers. We also saw multiple people just leave after being seated and not waited on for 20 minutes or so. We look forward to coming back once they are a bit more organized. I hope they take this as constructive because we really used to enjoy coming here.
Jamie Garfinkel - 2 months ago
Great atmosphere and menu. My partner is German and vouches for the authenticity. Not too crowded on a Sunday afternoon, relaxed, considerate and on the ball service, good variety of beers and sausages. Vegan options as well. Reasonable prices for NY, not exactly a steal but not marked up.

It was my first time here and I particularly liked the feeling of community while everyone ordered and enjoyed the delicious foods.
Ambience definitely gives of Mexican vibes, I actually felt like I was outside the United States.
I ordered the grilled shrimp, my oh my - delicious!
This is certainly a fun place to come to with friends.

We bump on this place after liberty games with few friends, and it definitely feel like Mexico. The aesthetic is a bit rowdy but i guess that is what they are going for, I love the food, the art and margarita. Definitely touristy but it’s worth trying and of course Emma was amazing

Great spot! Outdoor seating under umbrellas as well as cute booths inside. Justin took our order and was super pleasant! Food came out very fast.
Frozen margarita was perfect for a humid summer day and the tacos are awesome.
Side note: really clean bathroom!

Reviews
The food was phenomenal but the service was mediocre at best.
Greek grilled cheese - probably one of the best grilled cheeses I’ve ever had
Croquettes - not my favorite but my family loved it so probably just a taste preference
Brussels - nice char, good flavor and drizzled with balsamic
Dip trio- good way to try many options and the mini pitas were hot and fresh
Falafel - fresh and crispy but didn’t really taste the artichoke much
As for the service - our waiter was pretty rude, she gave us the check before we even asked/she asked us for it and we were going to order another round of drinks. But oh well, we just paid and left. We got out apps first and when the other server came with the entrees he pretty much rolled his eyes at us because we asked him to clear the dishes from the apps first. We only asked because the tables are small and there was no space for the new plates. It didn’t feel like an unreasonable request
Ambiance - beautiful decor, nice homey vibe

We went here for my birthday after going here 2 years ago and loving it. The ambience of the inside is truly unbeatable - the high ceilings, cozy lighting, and mindfully decorated space makes you forget that you're in a bustling city. Dre was our server and he just completed the vibe. He has a great energy. We got the carafe of red sangria which is a fav of our at any spot, but Olea is especially good at it. The trio of dips was definitely too much for 2 people, but I can't complain about an abundance of the best dips ever. Just come ready with an appetite. THEN we got one of the specials, it was a shrimp in garlic olive oil in a mini cast iron skillet and uhhhh oh my god it was so good. I have been thinking about it ever since. We will be back! :)

Delicious brunch with Mediterranean spices. The menu transcends regular American brunch options slightly, but all is kept relatively familiar. The highlight for me was the seasoning and the excellent breads. The coffee was fine, a decent dark roast. The indoor space is too loud.

We showed up here on a Monday with no reservations expecting no wait. Instead there was a crowd at the front waiting for a table. We learnt that reservations can be made for indoor seating only and outdoor is first come first served.
We had an artichoke falafel dish for appetizer which I wasn’t too crazy about. Our entrees were delicious - Branzino and lamb dishes were authentic tasting and flavorful. The staff were super friendly and attentive. Will be back.

Amazing appetizers.
The saganaki and Mediterranean pizza was so good.
The branzino had a great crispy exterior and was cooked perfectly.
Loved the desserts too.

We came here after my graduation, conveniently straight behind the Barclays. For an occasion to remember; the food was spectacular!!! Everything was well cooked and seasoned to perfection. From the calf liver, hummus, to the platters to even the RICE and HOUSE SALAD. Every meat items was tender soft and juicy. ESPECIALLY THE LAMB CHOPS, so good we ordered another after everyone was done. Never had such great lamb like this before. But for really everyone was impressed with the amount of flavor with everything included the rice and salad which we also had to take home.
really recommend if you want Turkish food. THE STAFF AND SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT, for they even accommodated my Dad to have a prayer space during Asr and Isha time.
Deniz is something to talk about everytime we’ll talk about my accomplishments of graduating

We stopped by here because our initial plan didn’t pan out and good thing because we discovered this gem! The food was on point and service was great.
My only ish were the drinks. I didn’t taste the requested flavor and it was more rum than what I expected. They tried to fix it though but I guess I had different expectations. It was the painkiller. The mojitos were okay but I’ll leave the drinks out lol because the food was everything!
Desert was on point, the mosaic and it was shareable!
We had the Branzino and seafood linguini and man! Was it everything and then some. The pictures don’t tell it all. The side rice and salad complemented the pan seared Branzino and the linguini was packed with a lovely variety of seafood like shrimp, calamari, salmon and tilapia. Now the pan seared Branzino was well seasoned and a lovely size. I have eaten Branzino at a few restaurants and this was top notch.
Service was friendly, decent, accommodating and professional.
We had a lovely time and we recommend for singles, couples and large groups!
Cheers!

10/10 would recommend and a great option if in Brooklyn. I LOVE Turkish food, but hadn’t eaten much of it since moving to NYC.
I have found my place! The crust on the pizza is just delicious. The salads taste so fresh. And the lamb! I never clean my bone but had to with the lamb chops
Rachelle Green - 4 months ago
Honestly i forgot names but
1. The Dip Hummus plater was bussin and worth every bite esp the bana ganoush
2. Zaatar bread was super unique in the taste profile which i reccomend geting and the consistency of the bread was like thin pizza but also a pita??
3. The main dish with salmon, lamb chops and shrimp in skewers were a highlight. The salmon was my favourite of all.
A really decent pricing quality and portion

My brother and I dined here tonight for the first time since the sun decided to come out! We had been wanting to come to this spot for a while and I’m so glad we did. We sat outside at the picnic benches and our server was Abby. Abby completely made our experience 5+ stars! He was full of energy, smiling, and attentive. For starters, we had the hummus and pita. This was the freshest hummus I’ve ever had! The pita was amazing too. We had the mixed grill and chose the chicken souvlaki, chicken gyro, and the lamb for our meats. Similar to the starters, the three meat plate was delicious. It came with rice and a side salad. To finish, we had the rice pudding. I couldn’t recommend Black Iris enough and make sure Abby is your server. He’s the best!

Came to this place as i was craving mediterranean and I would say this place is solid. We had ordered the mezze plate, zataar bread and surf and turf skewers. The mezze plate was awesome, but for in my opinion 2 of the dip was too similar to differentiate. The bread was excellent, its so umami and perfectly made. The surf and turf was a solid 10/10, salmon was very juicy, the shrimp had absorbed the seasoning really well and the lamb chops was spectacular. The serving size was also really big everything i ordered made 3 adults super full and satisfied. Love this place!

I have ordered from here quite a few times. I ordered 4 pies today & they were ready quickly. One of the pepperoni pies was barely cut... not a big deal. What I can't ignore is the fact that a whole cheese pie was burnt. There is no way that pie should've been served. I am disappointed...

Hot piping, fresh, delicious, NY slice right here in Fort Greene.
How lucky are we to live close nearby. As my Mother-in-law said about this place: "I don't know how I would survive living next to a pizza that is so good".
After trying all of their slices, we have a favorite: White Pesto. Yum!
2nd place: Stuffed meat pizza.
See you soon, dear pizza.

Called to make sure they had Gluten Free bagels, very courteous. They had plain and everything gluten-free.
Upon arrival they were very helpful with a first timer. Paid $16 for a gf lox deluxe bagel sandwich, not bad considering it was house made, gourmet and only could eat half, cos it was massive. Also had the popular bacon, egg, cheese on a gf everything bagel sandwich, $12.
Will come back for sure.

The most inconsistent bagel spot I’ve ever been to. Sometimes the bagels are great quality New York bagels other times they taste like old toast and aren’t better than supermarket bagels. I live nearby and been dozens of times, just never know what I’m gonna get.
Gus Novoa - a month ago
I'm rounding up from 2.5 stars to 3 here cause it's Friday and I'm feeling generous. The coffee was good, the food here is fine, but at the price point it should be better. Two unfancy breakfast bagels and a coffee cost me $20. Actually it cost me over $30, and I had to point out that seemed excessive before they rang me up again and found the error. The queue to order and wait for food is a jumbled mess. There is no rhyme or reason to who's order is ready first. People I know have raved about the deliciousness of everything here, but when I finally opened my 20 dollar bagel... it had the wrong toppings on it. I vote: it's fine but overrated.

Ok, this is a great neighborhood spot with affordable drink and good music ( r&b, hip hop etc) currently there’s no kitchen but they allow you to bring in your own food. At night a taco food truck comes at night as well. Great watering hole to meet up with friends. Bartenders are friendly and mix the drinks well.

This place was a one and done spot for me. I liked sitting outside better then being inside this spot. As it got later in the night I wondered how anyone living above this place could enjoy their apartment with the super loud music and voices from this bar. I guess you have to be a regular customer to enjoy.

Great atmosphere at this Fort Greene bar. We went after dinner and therefore I don't know how their food is. Everyone was very friendly. The music was good. Would definitely go back. Good prices on drinks.

Typical coldstone experience. Tucker away in for see or shopping plaza. The service was excellent.
Being in the shopping plaza sorta detracts from the atmosphere as it is tucked away in the corner. However, nice to be close to target and some other stores.
I like the milkshakes but like a lot of the menu items in general at coldstone.

Went there last night for the first time.
They have a great selection.
I got a very thick peanut butter milkshake and it was excellent. But the calories are another thing so I’ll not make it a habit of coming here too often. 5/5 stars.

It’s a small spot inside the mall. The ice cream I selected was too sweet for me and kind of pricey.

Waffle bowl ice cream was amazing, and the guy gave me a cold milk cup (I was really craving it; don’t ask why). He smiled and said, “ you’re the first one to ask” and gave it to me even though it wasn’t on the menu. 5⭐️
