Lore was one of the best meals in some time. We got a dosa the size of a yoga mat with three toppings and great consistency, classic butter chicken built for comfort, and the lamb shahi korma was regal, the stuff of legends, fit for the gods. Affordable by NYC standards, absurdly good by any standard, I’m still physically (and heart is) full

Well done, cool space, all the things that are good!

We loved our experience at Lore. The menu was inventive and the food flavorful. The wine list was well thought out – delicious options at approachable prices. Our server was exceptionally hospitable and we simply loved the vibes.

After having brunch here I will definitely be back for their dinner service.

Definitely worth checking out. Tried the biscuits & gravy, full 2.0, pancakes all were solid renditions of the traditional meal with a twist.

Callout – The French press is a full French press not just a personal sized one

1/5 ⭐️ Deeply disappointing for a Michelin star restaurant

I have NEVER been to a worse restaurant with Michelin star in my life. And never been so disappointed in a place that charges as much.

Food: (horrible)
– absolutely everything is very spicy WITHOUT any mention of that in menu
– poor presentation
– cheap low quality ingredients
– burnt
– absolutely NO flavor to food except spiciness

Ambience:
– loud and tables are too close to each other that you can feel a breath of a person sitting in a next table

Service:
– we have been waiting for our food for over an hour even though we were first in restaurant
– waitresses didn’t know anything about their drinks and when we asked for semi sweet wine the brought us super dry without even warning that they don’t have other options

Not recommend this place.
Sorry.

Came here for the NYC restaurant week on 08/17 (we were told that had ended, but after we showed the information on their website that explicitly said it runs through August 17 including Sundays, they did honor it).
The menu was great, everything we tried was scrumptious, portions were just the right size.
The place is nice decorated and would be very cozy if it were a little less loud.
Our final bill had a Rethink fee added to it, which wasn’t advertised anywhere and I feel like there should be more information on what that is (there’s a website indicated that you can check but I would prefer it to be explained more explicitly. I don’t mind supporting non profits of that sort, I just don’t feel it should be forced onto people like that).

Updated – another visit – 11/02/2025! Every visit is truly such a treat. Jay genuinely puts in the most effort to ensure everyone feels welcomed, checks in with you – stranger or friend – and makes you feel right at home. Jay and the team at LORE go above and beyond, keeping alive what now feels like the lost art of true hospitality.

10/16/2025 – Always the best vibes at LORE. Chef Jay and his team are the most hospitable every single time! I always leave with the fullest and most satisfied because the food is absolutely delicious.

All too rarely do you encounter new and truly surprising flavors, LORE is an exception. Incredible balance of sour, spice, sweet, umami. Their new scallop dish on a bed of nutty yogurt rice with a plum chutney and the samosa puffs on swirls of mango, mint, beetroot chutney were standouts. Great drinks, cozy atmosphere, and very warm staff to boot. Fabulous experience, and I will be back!

Lore in Park Slope is one of those rare places that instantly makes you feel at home, while serving dishes that rival the finest kitchens in Brooklyn. The atmosphere is warm, intimate, and full of character perfect for a night out that still feels personal.
The scallops were nothing short of incredible! Perfectly seared with a golden crust and melt-in-your-mouth texture. The duck? An absolute standout. Rich, flavorful, cooked to perfection, and plated with care and balance. Every bite felt intentional, crafted with love and serious skill.
But the real magic at Lore comes from Chef Jay Kumar. He’s not just cooking, he’s telling stories on the plate. A true talent and visionary, Chef Jay is the heart and soul of this place. You can taste his passion and brilliance in everything that comes out of the kitchen.
The staff is warm, the energy is authentic, and the food? Easily some of the best in Brooklyn. Lore isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience.
