I intially went into Blue Ribbon because Time Out saying they have Brooklyn's best burgers (which they do) but since have been back for everything else. From the oysters at the bar, to the entrees to the dessert, the whole food experience is top notch. The service is solid. The only complaint is that they seem to have a very hands-off policy regarding children. Literally I have been in there with children screaming and running amok, and the staff has done nothing about it. Granted, Park Slope is a very child friendly place, but it would be nice to see some restaurant owners enforce a little civility, or at least gently remind diners that their children are out of control. (This isn't just at BR, but it does oddly seem to be the worst here.) But if you dine a little later at night, it shouldn't be a problem.
Pros: food
Cons: screaming kids
