Clark's - Brooklyn - TravBuddy

Clark's at the corner of Henry Street & Clark Street in Brooklyn Heights. Take the 2/3 to Clark Street, exit the subway and you'll see it across the street. This restaurant is excellent for breakfast and lunch. Expect to wait if you're going for breakfast, but the service is fast and pleasant. They have wonderful lunch specials (soup/salad, sandwich/small meal, and desert) for about $8. Service is good for lunch and dinner, exceptional if the right staff is there. It's just a small town restaurant where you become a regular after a while. Don't be scared away by the decor and dress of the waitstaff. Granted they may be a little overdressed, but their prices are reasonable. Great Ecuadorian cook staff! Greek/American cuisine.
*Check out the Asian place next door for great lunch specials as well*
**While you're in the area, walk up Clark Street away from Henry Street to the Promenade for some of the best views of the Financial District in Manhattan.***
