Creative New American brunch-and-dinner spot known for signature pancakes and strong cocktails; lively vibe, solid food, but service and value can be inconsistent.
Why it gets a B+ for overall quality
Sunday In Brooklyn delivers solid neighborhood brunch appeal through strong food quality—signature hazelnut pancakes and shakshuka earn consistent praise—and attentive, fast service that keeps the energy high. However, quality variation across visits and tight seating that compromises comfort prevent it from reaching higher territory. Best suited for casual diners seeking creative New American brunch in a lively, Instagram-friendly setting rather than refined consistency.
Restaurant Summary
Mornings here feel warm and bustling, with lines at opening, plants in the windows, and servers hustling cappuccinos and that famous stack. One diner summed it up: "Service was kind and quick, and the pancakes really did steal the show." The room can run lively and loud at peak times, and the host desk sticks to rules, but many still call it a neighborhood favorite for a casual good time. The cooking leans contemporary and flavor-forward, a creative New American mix: hazelnut-praline pancakes, gochujang aioli on breakfast sandwiches, pistachio hummus with wood-fired pita, even togarashi ribs. Standouts like shakshuka and wood-fired lasagna win repeat praise, though some plates skew salty or sweet for certain palates. It is best for diners who enjoy modern twists over tradition rather than ultra-classic comfort. Families do well: pancakes, burgers, fries, and chicken give kids easy wins, while adults can branch out to salads or mains. There is no explicit kids menu, but options are kid-friendly by nature—think pancakes or a burger with fries—so it works for mixed groups if you avoid the spicier or more adventurous items.
