I am delighted to share my exceptional experience at Brooklyn Roots Italian restaurant. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The hostess greeted me with a beaming smile and ushered me to my table promptly.The service was impeccable, with the server arriving in no time with menus, water, and bread. The specials of the evening were described with such passion and detail that I found it hard to choose. I began my culinary journey with the Knickerbocker cocktail, which was a perfect blend of sweetness and strength. Later, I switched to their classic gin and tonic, which was made to my liking, with my preferred gin.For the starters, my group went with t...
I highly recommend the Matty Guns special pasta—it’s one of my absolute favorites that I order every single time! It's rich rigatoni tossed in vodka sauce with spicy sweet sausage, meatballs, whipped ricotta, and fresh mozzarella. This dish is simply divine, and I love it so much!
The linguini with white clam sauce is also fantastic! It's made with little neck clams, toasted garlic, and herbs. The pasta is cooked perfectly al dente, and there are always plenty of clams in the dish. The sauce is incredible! I adore this dish too and highly recommend it!
The eggplant parmesan (made with eggplant, fresh mozzarella, and pecorino romano) is SO delicious! It’s divine and ranks just below the Mat...
The venue is charming, and the food was outstanding. The chef was very accommodating, catering to my lactose intolerance and my husband’s vegan preferences. The service was both professional and friendly. All of my approximately 40 guests were thoroughly impressed by the meal, and everyone mentioned they would love to return.
To be honest, I usually feel quite anxious about planning events, but the team at Brooklyn Roots made everything so easy for me. I was actually able to sit back, relax, and enjoy the food. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone in search of a great Italian restaurant in Bay Ridge. While we all know the well-established spots in the neighborhood, Brooklyn...
I'll start by saying that the food deserves a 10 out of 5, but unfortunately, the service and the way my partner and I were treated left much to be desired. I had made a reservation, yet a couple who arrived without one ended up being seated at the other half of our table, which they split, leaving us uncomfortably close. This couple was in their mid-30s and dressed normally, while my partner and I are in a mixed-race relationship in our late 20s, sporting piercings and tattoos. Whatever the reason for the difference in treatment, it was disappointing to see the couple who came in after us being checked on three or more times while we were overlooked.

I visited this restaurant for my daughter's birthday, along with her boyfriend, and it was absolutely fantastic! The food was exceptional, and the service was extraordinary. Our waiter, Brian, was incredibly knowledgeable and guided us perfectly on how much to order and recommended the best dishes. He was spot on with his suggestions. I'm still debating whether the food or the service was the highlight of our dinner! From the moment we entered until we left, we felt truly special, and the meal was unforgettable.
There was a large party of us last night and we loooooved it ..the waitress was incredible and attentive all the servers) the food was incredible and as an Italian I don't like eating Italian food out but this was sooooooo delicious I'm already making plans fo go back soon .. I'd give a 10 star ? if possible. I loved it and their espresso martini bread pudding, tiramisu amazing. Thank you so much for a fun evening
This place was the best Italian family style spot I've been to since Gino's. I give this spot a 5 star rating. The food was amazing ? Great customer service ever. Many dishes to choose from the menu.Enough to fill your family needs with some delicious pasta platters. The egg plant Parmigiano platter was excellent. The prices are economical, especially on this day age.Thanks, Brooklyn RootsDEP NYC
I’m from out of state and was in New York for my son's 29th birthday, which we celebrate in spirit. I found this Italian restaurant online and it turned out to be fantastic! My son, who was wearing a red shirt, his girlfriend, and my son's dad all enjoyed every delicious bite. The outdoor seating was very relaxing, and the staff was wonderful. I highly recommend this place!

Incredible sauce, outstanding service, and generous portions. This is a wonderful spot for an enjoyable meal with friends. We tried the baked clams, fried artichokes, octopus, lobster pasta, and eggplant parmesan. For dessert, we had affogato and bread pudding. Everything was fantastic. Our server and the bartender provided exceptional service. Food: 5/5.
