Had dinner at Brooklyn Tavern tonight and the food was outstanding. There weren't enough servers on tonight but this was rectified as soon as it was evident to the staff. The space is bright, open and welcoming. Tables are spaced adequately so that you are not intruding on someone else's conversation. If you come alone and wish to eat at the bar, this is an option as well. I did not check out the patio but this is also part of the atmosphere.
Was impressed with both the food servings and the quality of the meals. We had the pork tacos as an appetizer and there was certainly enough for this to be a one person meal. The pulled pork was delicious. Since I was in the mood for the Cuban sandwich, I had that while my dining companion had the fish with the potato salad. We split portions and had the best meal.
Dessert was the creme brule. Fantastic as well.
Will definitely be back. The servers were responsive and attentive. This is a relief to me as I'm tired of having either indifferent servers or those trying out their schtick before their big break.
