Editorial Review for Dizzy's – by Jessica Branch

In Short
With black-and-white checkered tile, cherry-red counter stools and retro booth seating, this family-friendly nouveau diner is as homey as it is fun. Comfort standbys--including bacon-wrapped meat loaf and barbecued ribs, and upscaled interpretations--like tuna club made with wasabi mayo, share space with brunch favorites (Belgian waffles, fluffy buttermilk pancakes and wrecked eggs, or tofu). Everything gets washed down with a bottomless cuppa joe.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

02/18/2008 Posted by bklynmom7

I've been a regular customer and fan of Dizzy's since they opened on my block those many years ago. I have an addiction to their ruben sandwich which I occasional offset with their yummy turkey club. The cranberry sauce makes this a standout. I also love the huevos rancheros for brunch - I have no idea if it would be considered authentic, but it sure is a tasty dish with the vegetarian chili. I don't eat it so often since my daughter arrived and waiting among the crowds for their popular brunch period is no longer an option. At less busy times, my 2-year old is a huge fan of the mac & cheese and especially the warm, very engaged attention she receives. The staff members are always patient with families. This place really acts as a neighborhood meeting spot with its good food and personable service and I feel very fortunate to have it so close to home.

Pros: Neigborly service

Cons: Very busy for brunch

We looked forward to Dizzy's opening back in the day, often travel from Eastern Parkway to eat there, had them provide food for a couple of family events, and although the crowds keep us away sometimes, we find the people friendly, the food great. Of course, in a neighborhood place like that, the service isn't always super fast and sometimes I suppose they make math errors. Once, we had a birthday dinner there and I forgot to tip the guy. He gently let me know, which I was really glad for and we made it up to him.

Pros: food, homey, friendly

Cons: sometimes too crowded to wait for

This Park Slope comfort-food zone is as popular with the grownups as it is with the kids.  See the full editorial review.
