My brother and I went to the resturant yesterday to be served breakfast. We were not greeted immediately. Some staff just stood there and looked at us in amazement. The others completely ignored us. After a few minutes we were seated and had to wait a few more minutes to be served a menu. There were waiters and waitress, five in total, and no one wanted to serve us. Later, a caucasian couple came in. They were greeted with a smile and handed a menu when they were seated. I was totally saddened that such prejudice still occurs in New York, especially in Times Square where visitors from all around the world come to enjoy the sites of New York. We left this Brooklyn Diner with such feelings of hurt and shock that I felt compelled to let others know about the horrible, prejudicial treatment that this diner offers. This review is a plea to the owner and staff of this diner to please rethink this policy of discrimination. We are all human beings on this earth doing the best we can. The least anyone asks is to be served with dignity and respect.
Cons: does not serve minorities
