What People Are Saying About Bubby's Brooklyn

Bubby's original Tribeca location succeeded because of its oversized space, comfy vibe and the general quality of the food. The Dumbo location is even bigger, more comfortable and busier. Just steps from a waterfront park overlooking Manhattan, the converted warehouse is bright and spacious, with three offset levels of dining areas visible from the entrance and bar area. Because it's a family joint, servers, hosts and bartenders all exude folksy charm, and even when service is stretched a bit thin, things tend to work out fine. As in its sister restaurant, fluffy sourdough pancakes, thick, eggy french toast, decent fried chicken, and first-class desserts are the biggest draws.

Great food - had gazpacho and flank steak...so yummy. Corn pudding is so good - like a dessert. I will definitely go back.

I had good memories of the place in Tribeca. The brunch menu was pretty limited...don't put up pictures of your mac and cheese then not have it on the menu! Apple and bacon omellette...solid. Only two pies available for dessert. Lame. They made us wait around for a while though there were open tables...a little annoying. Not a bad consolation prize if the line at Grimaldi's is too long.

After a shaky past few months, I'm proud that Bubby's has taken the neighborhood's cries seriously and has made marked improvements. It's finally back to being a place I want to recommend to my friends!
