King Solomon Restaurant

I was holding a memorial dinner for my son. I needed everything to be perfect. We checked out every possible kosher restaurant and catering hall in Brooklyn. We found dairy restaurants, Italian restaurants, and standard catering halls but there was absolutely nothing to compare to King Solomon. It is a one of a kind hidden gem in Brooklyn.

Firstly, they offered four different fantastic menus to choose from but you are not restricted to these menus. The owner told me he would serve whatever dishes made me happy. We had numerous discussions about the menu. Always, I was treated with such patience and respect. In the end, I chose a combination of the four options plus several creative dishes he suggested. They serve family style with the waiters coming around with large platters and serving each guest. Each menu offers non-stop food from the beginning of the event to the end. It was truly a banquet fit for a king. The food was unbelievably delicious dish after dish. It started coming and continued for several hours. There were tons of cold and hot appetizers, served by the most attentive waiters. Between courses, the wait staff stood behind each table to respond to every request. Each waiter wore an earpiece. The purpose of this was to pass along any request they were unable to fulfill directly to the owner who would immediately appear to meet the most minor of requests with a smile. At the end of the evening, the waiters provided take-out containers for each guest to take home the remaining food.

The venue itself was perfect. A large round table in front of a lovely tapestry curtain held all the seating cards. Either side of the table opened to the main room. Since my son loved purple and we had chosen centerpieces with purple flowers. The owner provided cream colored tablecloths with purple napkins. He assisted me in making many of the choices I ended up going with and he was always right. The room was bathe in pale purple lighting which just pulled the whole look together. At the end of the room, is a stage behind which is a waterfall effect. I was surprised when I found out the restaurant provided at no extra charge a piano player. He performed throughout the evening on stage. In the front of the stage was a video monitor which we used to show our guests a video of our son’s life. For a small fee, the restaurant arranged get valet parking which meant so much to the guests.

All in all, it was better than I could have ever imagined. The whole success of the evening boiled down to one thing: owners who are concerned with every detail of each event that takes place in their restaurant. The customer service is amazing. No matter how many times I called or popped in with questions, they were there for me and truly happy to help me. Following the dinner, I received texts and emails from everyone who attended. Everyone shared the same thought. It was a perfectly amazing dinner.

I give King Solomon five stars only because they will not permit me to give them one hundred.
