Reviews

Came here with the family for an early dinner while in the neighborhood.
The service is medium, not as fast as your typical diner, but gets the job done.
The restaurant itself is like walking into a time capsule from the 70s and 80s.
The inside has been persevered and not changed from the original artwork on the walls, the neon lighting.
This is a true New York classic diner experience. The food hots the spot in all the right places.
Note that the pastrami is thin cut and served warm and not hand carved like at Katz.
Everything tasted well made, though all of the deli meats are very salty.
But that's what you came for.
I strongly recommend the Superhuman it has all of the classics.


A true Brooklyn Gem! Service is very fast.
Staff extremely friendly.
Food is outstanding.
You gotta go!


I went for dinner with a few friends.
The food is outstanding.
The chopped liver appetizer was great.
I had 1/2 pastrami sandwich and 1/2 tongue sandwich.
It's really good.
I hope the Mill Basin Deli is around for a long time to come.
