Staff was friendly and accommodating for us being that we had a stroller. There was not a long wait to be served nor food your food to arrive. The food was great, the only down fall would be that it did lack some seasoning. The Caesar Salad … More

Considering Bayridge is a kid friendly neighborhood, I'm surprised how this place was not. How it's been around since I was a kid might be because boomers are frequent customers. … More

I've had two different parties at Greenhouse and both times had good experiences.
The brunch buffet held in the sun room was great with multiple options and more than enough food for everyone. Definitely loved the ambiance in this space.
For the other party, we did sit down in the larger room and the portions of the meals were so large. Two full pieces of chicken Parm with vegetables and potatoes on the side. And that was after penne vodka and the salad.
Flavor of everything was also quite good - definitely recommend for a party. They were additionally very accommodating when setting up.
My only criticism is that it could get a bit crowded in there as the spaces are tight. Do not book at full capacity as it won't be comfortable for guests.
All in all good experience with Greenhouse!

I came here for the first time over the weekend for brunch. This is such a lovely spot in Bay Ridge. The service and food was really good and the place was immaculately clean. The prices for the brunch items is pretty reasonable as well. I will definitely come back again.

I went to dinner with my mother, and the food was as expensive as it is anywhere in South Brooklyn. While I have been here before the hospitality is lackluster at best. The waitresses don't know the menu well and the bus boys are inert. … More
