Great Restaurant – This is a wonderful restaurant and very hidden. The roof top view is amazing. The service is quick and very friendly. The food isn't your typical Mexican but that makes it great. Many different choices and very reasonably priced. Overall, a great place!
has gone down in quality – I previously wrote a fantastic review for this restaurant, but went a couple months ago and it had gone down a lot in quality. The food is still pretty good, but it used to be really delicious and interesting, and now is just above average. Many of the best items on the menu have been removed. The service was always mean, and still is. For the price, it is no longer anything special and not worth the hike from the subway, even for the view. But if I lived very close by, I would still go there.
Fabulous brunch – I took my mom here on Mother's Day. It was perfect. Even on an unseasonably cold day, the rooftop patio was comfortable. And, of course, the views are amazing. The chilaquiles con huevos were fanatastic, as was the flourless chocolate cake.
Good View, Bad Food – I'm willing to eat bad food here just for the view, which is saying something really nice about the view. The food here can occasionaly be good but is most often very disappointing. The salsa is almost inedible. The margaritas, however, numb the tastebuds nicely.
From a hidden rooftop in Carroll Gardens comes an inspired Mexican menu and sweeping skyline views. – The Scene This Brooklyn hot spot, located on an unlikely corner west of the BQE, draws a diverse crowd. A raucous bar leads upstairs to an upbeat, Southwestern-appointed dining room. Another flight up, the elegant lantern-lit rooftop inspires a reverent and romantic mood. The Food After 14 years at Zarela, arguably the city's best Mexican restaurant, Gary Jacobson offers bold cooking that befits Alma's many moods, playing so... read more
creative mexican cuisine not to miss – Yes, the view from the roof deck is spectacular. The skyline of Manhattan makes for a marvelous backdrop while sampling the best tamales this side of the board. Try the chilaqules that is drips with spicy rancheros sauce. Recommended entrees include the Pato Cachuate (grilled duck breast in a peanut sauce), Chuleta de Puerco Adobo (pan seared pork loin in a roasted tomato sauce with sauteed poblano and ancho chiles) or the Camerones Asado (Shrimp Fajitas with mango salsa, chipolte sauce... read more
Worth the walk – Walked down from Brooklyn Heights along the BQE's service road and through the marine terminal, and suddenly there is a brief oasis of restaurants. Downstairs there is a good bar with a fast, friendly bartender who mashes healthy quantities of sugar into freshly cut lemons or sprigs of mint before putting in the vodka and rum. Upstairs, there is the inside dining room, and the upstairs patio. The views are equally good, as the large windows in the dining room are open with nice views of lower Manhattan throu... read more
not worth the wait – Beware of the wait, which can be over an hour. Good food but nothing special overall and with Manhattan prices. Wouldn't go back.
A Matter of Alma – Alma is worth a visit for its location alone. It is in a romantic and charming part of Carrol Gardens, where brownstone brooklyn meets the industrial and gritty port of New York. The views of the port and lower Manhattan are great, both from the deck and from the large picture windows of the dining room. The food, for the most part, is very decent: crispy and flavourful duck, savory poblano relleno, and classic enchiladas. My ceviche was more like a shrimp cocktail, the spicy sauce overpowered the delicate... read more
