Park Slope may not be starved for an unfussy place to hang, but its residents do hanker for fancy burgers. Set on a busy corner above an F-train stop, The Brooklyn Burger Bar tries to feed both needs. The handsome dining room has dark wood, a long marble-topped bar, and trendy filament lightbulbs; an adjacent lounge has a pool table and a dart board. The menu sticks to the basics: grilled-chicken sandwiches, fried chicken tenders, and a half-dozen burgers, including Kobe beef. Other variations are all of grade-A American chuck; the namesake variation is sizzled in Brooklyn beer and served with bacon, mozzarella, grilled onions, and plump steak-cut fries. The real appeal here is ultimately as straightforward as the name.

I'm a big burger fan and so wanted to give this new place a try. Unfortunalty, it was not what I was hoping. It was a quite weekday night and I had to wait over 20 minutes to have my order taken. The waitress did not apologize of the wait and just went about her business indifferently. After serving my burger, which was decent but nothing like Cobble Grill burgers (the standard which I hold all burger joints), she never checked back with me to see if I needed a refill of my drink (I did) nor the obligatory "how are you doing?" halfway through the first bite. She spent mopst of the time talking wiht her co-workers or other tables. I understand when a restaurant is busy and this happens but it was a light traffic night, so that type of behavior is unacceptable. I kept waiting to get noticed but it never happended. Finally I got her to give me the check quite some time after I had finished. I do not intend to ever go back.
