Red Fraggle: Vegetarians don't be wary. The fried green tomatoes are amazing. Try the mac and cheese and the veggie sandwich. You won't be sorry.

Matt Varghese: Portions are massive. Super friendly staff. Fried green tomatoes, crab cake benedict, Long Island whiting sandwich and chorizo were all excellent!
Christina Chin: I don't even like fried green tomato but they were great here! Basic breakfast with French toast was good. Avocado toast was just ok. Service was a bit slow and it wasn't that crowded on sun brunch
Dakeeta Grinage: Fried chicken, crab boil, fish, spaghetti, steak, you name it it's all great. The Marietta & Disco Nap drinks are everything. The service is great. The owners are awesome.

Monica Lo: Pick up pickled green tomatoes from Dr. Pickle and fresh Brooklyn-grown tempeh from Barry's Tempeh.
Taiowa Waner: Great selection of fresh produce and cooked food. Grab a biscuit, coffee, and a gourmet soda. They also have sweets and savory food vendors. A lot less crowded than the Prospect Park market.

Sandy G: The lamb and green tomato pies are one of the best things I've eaten in a while!
Emily Wilson: Everything is delicious. Definitely get at least one flatbread and an order of labneh to start. If you're a bourbon fan, I highly recommend the astrid—super simple and refreshing.
The New Yorker: “Glasserie’s convivial ethos feels in keeping with the way we like to eat now: gone is the three-course meal, and, instead, appetizers become entrées, and back again, all of it customizable.” Read more.

Subodh Samudre: If you're really hungry try the big breakkie, the fried tomatoes and baked beans on the side are a solid add-on
Ezra Pollard: Fried tomatoes. So simple, so right.
Capo Di Capo: Sankkerimatkat approves this place. Excellent atmosphere even during early lunch. Hip & warm interior. Great service, friendly and smiling waitresses. Amazing kale salad. Hard rock from vinyl.
Ailie Chang: Delish! Sliced Tomato w/ Lugar's Sauce, Extra Thick Bacon, Porterhouse, German Fried Tomatoes, and Creamy Spinach! Get any of the desserts. No Credit Cards.
New York Habitat: The best steak in all of New York City. Yes it's expensive and cash only. You have to make reservations far in advance but it will be the best steak you've ever had. The burgers are also fantastic.
HBO: Girls happened here. Jessa meets Thomas-John's parents at this steakhouse and regales the group with tales of her rehab-attending past.
