Editorial Review for Bubby's Brooklyn – by Allison Austin

The Scene
Just steps from a waterfront park overlooking Manhattan, the converted warehouse space is bright and spacious, with three offset levels of dining areas visible from the entrance and bar area. Because it's a family joint, servers, hosts and bartenders all exude folksy charm, and even when service is stretched a bit thin, things tend to work out fine.

The Food
The brunch menu is the biggest draw. Kids love the fluffy sourdough pancakes with fresh fruit and the raisin French toast; parents should order the lox scramble or the eggs Florentine. Comfort food--like dreamy macaroni and cheese with excellent, crispy buttermilk-fried chicken, or barbecue ribs, slow-cooked brisket and pulled pork--is what's for dinner. And though it's not easy to save room, a slice of the sour cherry, apple or strawberry-rhubarb pie is worth the effort.

Great food - had gazpacho and flank steak...so yummy. Corn pudding is so good - like a dessert. I will definitely go back.

Pros: Great food!

I had good memories of the place in Tribeca. The brunch menu was pretty limited...don't put up pictures of your mac and cheese then not have it on the menu! Apple and bacon omellette...solid. Only two pies available for dessert. Lame. They made us wait around for a while though there were open tables...a little annoying. Not a bad consolation prize if the line at Grimaldi's is too long.
