  5. Best Wings Ever
    The food here is really delicious, fresh, home-made and a must-try in Brooklyn. All of the sandwiches are good including, the grilled chicken with brie, pulled pork, portobello, turkey burger and all sandwiches/burgers come with your choice of sides: salad, vegetarian chilli, soup, spicy cole slaw, or fries, which i would def recommend. They are fresh, crispy, and perfectly seasoned (The fries al...

  6. Insanely good burgers!!!
    There is no better place in the city to get burgers. Soooo delicious, just spicy enough, and really great fries too. Plus a good beer selection. They have chipotle mayo to dip the fries in, too, which is yummy. I highly recommend this place - just go early, it gets crowded!

  7. Like the feel, but pricey
    Cute place with exposed brick and bar seating that makes you feel like you're in an old diner. The burger I had was very good, but the beer wasn't cold enough. I felt that six bucks was a lot for a beer that wasn't even cold. A frosted glass probably would've helped. The bill was close to twenty bucks for a burger and beer.

  8. Best WIngs EVER
    Not a greatly decorated place, but man, the food is awesome. I highly recommend the burgers, although sometimes not cooked as well done as you'd like, but still delicious. The wings are soooooo good. I don't even like spicey food but it's so worth it. Even the fries are good. Ok it may not be the cleanest looking place on earth , and the wait staff can be a bit rude, but the food makes it all wor...

  9. Get their wings and fly!
    Best buffalo wings in Park Slope--and maybe much farther around--at this tiny but homey joint that also has a renowned burger. Cozy, sometimes crowded, but well-priced comfort food (also including a range of sandwiches, like the Buffalo specialty beef-on-weck).

  10. bad news
    went here a few weeks ago and i remembered that i was here 2 years ago with a friend and the food was really good then. sadly, however, tghis time it wasnt. i ordered a cheeseburger very well done and got a hamburger that was hardly medium cooked. When i politely told this to the waiter he seemed highly annoyed and unsympathetic. I am sure he was overworked and the place was in fact busy( had to ...

  11. Go To Bonnie's
    I just spent an entirely satisfying couple of hours at Bonnie's. You must take into consideration that I went for lunch on a Monday; there were other folks, but it was not crowded. It is one of those narrow spaces. I sat at a table in the very front, and got to see the interesting folks walking on 5th. There is a long counter, and tables in the back. Those back tables were filled with se...

  12. (M)eat here
    Just came here the other day because my teacher kept raving about this place a few months ago . When I first walked in , there was a long line but no worries .. you will get your order quicker than you think . I got a super steak which was okay but kind of on the bland side . I'm sure I've had better . They have a lot of different flavors of grill to choose from which is awesome because some gril...

  13. Consistently great
    Burgers, fries, and everything in between. They are always pleasant, and accomodating even to vegetarians! Get all the free add ons for your salad! Great for late nite munchies.

  14. Like this kind of food? Go
    I'm a fan, what can I say. There are 4 things to eat at Bonnie's - the burger, the wings, the fries and, last but not least, the chipotle mayo. Never stray and never be disappointed. Don't go to a burger place if you're a vegetarian (although the chili cheese fries look pretty good from a distance). Also don't go every night because you'll gain a hundred lbs. See you there.

  16. great great great great great service prices beer wings burgers
    Our first visit to Bonnie's and certainly not our last. We wanted to try it for the wings. The wings were very good, a step above your typical slathered in hot sauce (think Blondie's, Down the Hatch etc.) buffalo wings. The revelatory menu item proved to be the burger: one of the best I've had in NYC. Not as big as (the late great) McHales but a really wonderful grilled flavor and a perfect j...

  17. Awful.
    I'd just be repeating myself if I wrote my experience. Read the recent reviews because they're all true. Terrible waitstaff, mediocre food, dirty sticky tables and bits of food all over floor.

  18. I hate that I even have to give a star to this place.
    They used to be pretty good but with their growing popularity, they've seen fit to raise prices while letting things go to terd. On my last visit, it took an hour and 1/2 for mediocre overpriced burger and soggy fries. The back kitchen door was open the whole time where I had the pleasure of watching a gloveless employee cut vegetables into the rustiest bucket I've ever seen and then transfer the...

  19. This place has gone all the way down the hill
    Used to be crazy about Bonnie's, and as a former regular, it pains me to say I'm never going back again. The service has devolved from charmingly slow into insultingly neglectful. I had been noticing a steady decline in the quality of the food (and the service, which is probably related) for some time, but would go back anyway since it was at least familiar, but it isn't anymore. The last time...

  20. Just Okay
    I'm surprised this place has such a high rating. I went on a recommendation of a friend and wasn't impressed. The service was slow, but friendly. I wasn't happy with the food at all, it was okay at best. I might go back if I had to, but I'm not rushing,

  21. Pedestrian burgers at a snails pace.
    Yeah, so Bonnie's burgers are OK. But the service is ridiculous, even by the slacker trustafarian standards of Park Slope. In the mood for a burger? And even more, in the mood to wait for said burger for ninety minutes while various skateboard kids, NYU film students, Chomsky experts, professors of social justice, drink PBR from a can and dissect oh, how miserable it is to live in the AmeriKKKa o...

  22. Best Chicken Sandwich Ever
    My boyfriend introduced me to Bonnies as he loves the burgers (same thing everyone's said here). I don't eat a lot of red meat but the grilled chicken sandwiches are just exactly what they should be -- soft, corn-dusted roll, chicken grilled so it's juicy on the inside and crispy, carbon-striped on the outside, and the cheese is melted perfectly (they make sure it's melted all the way before ser...

  23. Bonnies is DIRTY!
    I wrote a nice review of Bonnie's a few weeks ago, but I'm afraid I have to revoke it now. Look it up on the DOH website: Bonnie's got a 43 on their last Dept. of Health inspection! EW!!!!!!! Dirty kitchen, dirty food, yuck!

  24. Not a bad place to sit a spell
    We did a bit of research and agreed to give Bonnie's a try. The people seemed friendly but reserved and the service was slow. Not overly busy on our visit; I couldn't help but notice that the floor was all wet by our table. The beer selection is great if a bit pricey. The wings were a good choice and they were REALLY spicy; plump and juicy (and we ordered the medium!). My little one had the ...

  25. Best vegetarian chili cheese fries!!!
    Bonnie's is a very cute cozy place with delicious food! I had the vegetarian chili cheese fries w/ sour cream and they were delicious!!!! I also had a burger w/ jalepenos and it was huge, juicy and great! I will definately be going back, especially after a night of drinking!

    after reading the rave about bonnie's burger, i went to check it out. ordered wings and burgers. everything was delicious but i don't know if i would call it the best burger. It certainly is a good place for beer and burger though.

    I wonder if Splatooey is talking about me. I was graced with an entire glass of water in my lap. Glad I didn't order beer that day. (Coke comes in a can there so, couldn't have been a Coke.) They could have offered me a few more towels though. Water isn't going to k*ll me. And I ate for free that day. I still love the fries, garlic mayo on the portabello, tuna salad. Atmosphere...except for o...

    this place is supposed to be the place for burgers, but i dont think so. the burgers are big, but dry even though i ordered medium rare. Its not cheap, it was $10 for a burger and fries, and when i was there, the waiter had dropped a FULL glass of coke on a patron, soaking her through! she was really cool about it though :) i didnt think this greasy spoon was anything to brag about. plus thi...

  32. Best burger in Brooklyn
    There isn't much to say about Bonnie's that hasn't been said before. Situated right next to Blue Ribbon (whose burger is also worthy of honorable mention) Bonnie's is the perfect place to go for great burgers in a friendly & casual atmosphere. The whole staff is very friendy and remind you of people that you have known forever. Great food by people who actually seem to care about what they do....

  35. Favorite weekday spot in the Slope!
    Whenever we're hungry and don't know where to go, we inevitably wind up at Bonnies. The food is OUTSTANDING! (My personal favorite is the vegetarian (!!) chili cheese fries and their spicy burger) The service is typical diner service -- nothing outstanding, but they try their best to accommodate. Best advice is to go either early or late, especially on weekends -- they're typically slammed betwee...

  36. User review by 1redrunner
    Their wings are great and they make them hot! Plus they have pitchers to wash it down, and the beer is usually something local and decent. Stay away from the Beef on Weck though. Love the fries and the dipping sauce.

    Seriously, the best. I was skeptical, but it's true. Nice spice to everything. The spicy Cole Slaw is a must. As are the VEGETARIAN chilli fries. Casual atmosphere with nice, normal service!

  40. Bonnies Grill
    if you go there for the service, forget it, not that it's bad for this particular establishment. The burgers/wings are just what you want, some decent beers also. O.K. its litely seasoned, but theres a wide range of condiments to chose, add your own special touch.

  41. Burger Solution
    I love hamburgers. That said, I am not a foodie. I like my burgers from medium to well-done and I like them without lettuce, tomato or exotic genre-bending sauces, just onion and occasionally cheese. For my bet, Bonnies is the best burger in the Fort Greene/Clinton Hill/Park Slope districtfrom what I've experienced from 4 years living in New York. The beef is high-quality, well-but-lightly season...

  42. This place rules!!!
    The service is great, the food is fantastic and the catfish burgers are amazing! It's horrible that a place like this gets overlooked in the Best of New York issues of NY-based magazines while the same old tired overrated restaurants get picked year after year. If you live in this neighborhood, go to Bonnie's while it's still a well-kept secret.

  43. Excellent food
    My brother and I go to Bonnies often. This place is not only great for burgers but they also make great wings(the best in nyc) even better than Down the Hatch in Greenwich village. Their pulled-pork sandwich is the best you will find at least in the Northeast. In fact I have never had a pulled-pork sandwich that was better and I have traveled to many places down south. The Crabcakes are also...

    My girlfriend and I get Bonnie's burger cravings and we have never been disappointed by Bonnie's food or service. The ambience is low key and relaxed, the service friendly, professional and fun. All the cooking is done before your eyes and the place is immaculate. We love it!

  46. The wings, the wings!
    That's what's really good at Bonnie's. I honestly have never tried anything else besides the fries with chipolte mayo, which is delicious as well. Bonnie's wings are real-deal style Buffalo wings - incredibly thick and delicious. The sauce is incredible. Hands down the best chicken wings I've had in NYC.

  47. Mmm...Bonnie's.
    Bonnie's is 100% responsible for getting me addicted to chipotle mayonnaise on french fries. Plus, they're really good fries! The pulled pork BBQ is excellent, as well as pretty much everything on the menu, especially the wings, like others have mentioned. It's a great place to get american food without having to go to a run-of-the-mill diner. :)

  49. Mouth Watering Madness!!
    Bonnies does certainly have one of the best burgers you may find in Brooklyn. The Chipatole used for the fries are a nice change and the wings are quite good. The beer selection is above average and they change the art on the walls from different artists making it always something different to see.

    And this is one of the best burgers I've ever had. The wings are also delicious. Mostly, I love that the food is so excellent, but the feel of the place is still friendly and casual without being a loud sports bar. It is a great addition to the neighborhood.
