    Amazing restaurant! Their popularity is well deserved. Karen was my server, she did an excellent job at serving. Very kind and attentive. I had the chicken and waffles, my sister had french toast with fresh strawberries and a side of sausages. Large servings! Food was delicious and flavorful. Definitely would come back. The interior is beautiful as well.

    Always a great local spot to get some food. From crab legs to pasta, to grits and scrambled eggs. They're service is impeccable and their food is always great. Their cheesecake is delicious also. My go to is breakfast, corned beef hash ( extra crispy) two eggs over easy, homefries and wheat toast. Hits the spot, every time.

    The Lindenwood Diner is an old school staple. I haven't been in a while, but the service, food and quality remains the same. You are greeted with a smile. Servers are friendly and helpful. Caren was great. The food is phenomenal. The menu is extensive so you may need time to figure out what you want to eat. From Mofongo and shrimp to pancakes and eggs, you will be fed and full. Drinks are plentiful as well. We got 2 boozy milkshake, my mate got 2 peach frozen margaritas. See photos for food. We went at noon and literally got breakfast, lunch and dinner. The bill for 3 adults was a little over $150. Great price for real food.

    Absolutely one of the best burgers I've ever had. This is a staple of southeast Brooklyn and yet I haven't been here in decades. A dozen of my fraternity brothers and I got together for an impromptu reunion and we enjoyed every second there. The staff was excellent and we were treated like royalty. #LocalGem #GoodEats #theresthatfoodie #AVTeats
