Pegasus Brooklyn — Restaurant in New York

Our regular 'Breakfast Spot' was closed this weekend, so off to Pegasus we go. And, we've been here before but I hadn't reviewed it back then because... "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all...". However, the man was adamant about trying Pegasus again, so that's where we went. The Man and I are early risers, so we showed up at 8am, the time Pegasus opens the doors. Uh... Did I miss a memo(?) because there was a line two-stores long of people waiting to get into Pegasus at 8am. Like...Whoa.

After grabbing a booth for the two of us, we were given plenty of time to mull over the menu and select our breakfast du jour. A sweet waitress stopped by, took our order and retrieved the menus.

While we waited for our orders, I got a chance to look around the restaurant. It's really cute. I particularly love the copper-painted ceiling tiles. Super fancy.

I also got a chance to notice the noise level in the restaurant. Now, I want to be clear; NO restaurant should have the sound quality of a Library or anything close to it. However, the quantity of children screaming at their highest pitch possible, and the adults trying to speak over their screams... Ugh... It made my skin crawl. Frankly, I wanted to leave for THAT reason, alone.

Breakfast showed up. I ordered: Two Eggs, Over Easy with Cheese & Avocado on the side with a Hazelnut Latte. The Man ordered "Kick A Benedict" with Black Coffee

My eggs were over cooked, but still tasty and the Home Fries that came with my eggs were great. The latte was nice, as well. I wasn't "impressed" but I definitely "liked it".

The Man was in heaven. His Benedict had a spicy hollandaise and was topped with peperoncino. And this man... If you want to make him happy, sprinkle Peperoncino on his food. So, he was experiencing ecstasy. He also really liked the Coffee.

I, personally, wouldn't initiate going back to Pegasus again, but if my man nagged me to go, I'd tag along without a fight, because the food...

My first time there and was dessapointed and annoyed for the first 45mi, them was ok.Giving 4 starts for the server- very nice & swet young lady Miranda. I got there and was told by the guy at front I need to wait about 15mim.,although they were 3 empty booths, or ,sit at the counter. NOT a smile or Gm. I patiently waited, after 12min a couple came in, was seated right away. I asked the guy, short black hair at front : Let me get this right, so I have to wait until a single table open (it did 28min after my arrival) although there's 3 booth open, but anyone after me ,2 or more can sit? His replay "is only for more than 1 person " So where is this posted? No answer. Ok good to know to let people know in my review! This was an embarrassing situation 😳. Just I started writing, he said, ok take the booth at the end. Now seated, service was great. Noticed water & coffe was refill but none to last 4 tables.I had to ask for it to the same person I spoke previously who brought it right away, smile, and apologized for the coffe machine having some issues and bringing me a fresh one..Order avocado toast, they were very good ,tasty and everything cook right. I tipped the young lady generously because she was very sweet and on point. My opinion: food is good, great menu ,somewhat expensive , but compare to the Commons at 95St., need more customers friendly personnel. There, they tell you about the table regulations, accommodate you and take your number to notify you when ready.Will try here...

As a millennial, the concept of brunch has been turned from a meal eaten between breakfast and lunch into a boozy, multi-hour ordeal that has become more about the champagne and bloody marys than about actual food and a conversation. That's why I prefer my brunches at Pegasus.

Much like the mystical creature from Greek mythology, Pegasus manages to feel magical. Sporting both regular diner fare as well as a more unique brunch menu, this small restaurant in the heart of Bay Ridge is a great place to go to sit down and have a bite. Service is always friendly and quick, on account of the depth and width of the restaurant.

One of my favorite items on the Pegasus menu has been the french toast. Thick slices of challa bread, coated in a bourbon glaze makes the morning seem just a bit brighter. While other diners might ground up some dirt and run it through the coffee filter, the coffee here tastes incredible - no overburnt taste or gritty after bite.

Prices can be a bit expensive relative to other diners, however the quality of the food far makes up for that. Additionally, given the limited seating the restaurant has, be prepared to wait a few minutes for a seat - even longer if you come during...
