Profile

Even before you've finished your first Wizard cocktail, you notice the floor is tilting. But the disequilibrium contributes to the charm of this snug, just-rehabbed-enough 1926 dining car. A beyond reductive menu offering “soup,” “burger,” “spinach,” and at brunch, “hot cereal” misleads at first. Specials might include succulent pork loin with caramelized cipollini and tender lamb ragout with white-bean gratin. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

I have lived in Brooklyn for nearly 4 years and have yet to meet a rival to Diner’s grass-fed burger. For me this is hands down my favorite spot to go for an evening alone with a book on a bar stool. There are few restaurants that I regularly miss from my days in Williamsburg, but this — alongside Egg, Roebling Tea Room and St. Helens — is one of them.
