Brooklyn Dip & Burger 1850 Front Street, East Meadow, NY 11554

"The burger & wings here are excellent. I’ve ordered the Brooklyn Classic a couple of times now and each time the patty has been really juicy with good flavor. The burger is more of a proper burger that you’d find at a good restaurant and less of a fast food/bar burger. Bun is always soft and accompanying veggies always fresh. They’ll also cook the burger to your preferred rareness. The sauces also taste pretty good (you can sub the sauce for one you like, I rec the white bbq). Wings are perfect in that they are lightly, not overly-breaded and not overly-sauced. I tried the Thai peanut which was surprisingly good. Fries and onion rings were also good. Tried the Parmesan truffle fries & Cajun fries and liked both. Also one of the few places in the area that does beer battered onion rings."

"Burgers and sandwiches are good but I would skip the buffalo wings. Too much breading and they came out soggy. Edit: had to downgrade them another star. Decided to give them another shot but the burger I ordered came out completely well done (instead of medium). What a waste of $25."

"Came in to get a gift card and decided to have a quick bite. I was glad I did. The boneless Thai chili, wings were fantastic. Jamie and Lizzie were very friendly, welcoming, made suggestions off the menu to help me make my choice. Atmosphere is great the staff is wonderful. I’ll be sure to come again!!!"

"First, this is a great addition to Mineola. We started with Thai Peanut Wings and Garlic Parmesan Wings. Both were delicious. My wife and daughter had some sort of Pineapple Drinks. At first they were weird and the waitress admitted they forgot to add alcohol. They were better with alcohol… My brother in law and I had Smokey Manhattans. They were great but a bit too Smokey for our taste. Now to the main course. I’m m fairness I grew up in Brooklyn near Brennan and Carr and Roller Roast known for their beef dipping prowess. I was expecting the same here but it missed the mark. First, in my opinion, the whole sandwich should be dipped in the broth and then additional broth supplied in the side. Second, the beef quality was great but too well done for most people’s taste. Lastly, a slice of cheese should be offered but so should pump cheese. I would also note that we had Cajun fries and onion rings which were very good as was my wife’s burger. The wait staff could be a bit more attentive but the owner was there and seemed to be a nice guy. Well that’s it in a nutshell. With a few changes this place could be awesome!"

"Jennifer was a great bartender; she kept our drinks full and had a lot of knowledge about the establishment, the menu, the specialty drinks, etc. The food was delicious and hot and there is an extensive menu with something that will make every belly happy. They are obviously great with their take-out game because while we were there we saw many many pickups from what seemed like returning customers."
