According to the blog A Test of Will, this new steakhouse at the corner of Leonard and Conselyea is scheduled to open today. It’s hard to say who the target audience is: The owner’s penchant for for a corny pun at the expense of all irony (“Dee Brooklyn Steak House” reads the tagline) may not fly with the hipsters and we’re not sure the old-timers are used to dropping thirty bucks for a cut of beef. How do you think this will fly? Is there much restaurant competition in that immediate area of the Burg?

this place looks super cute-i dont eat meat but it makes me wish i did. only seen it form the outside but the owner did a great job on the renovation. i believe he is an old timer in the nieghborhood, and lives nearby.
12:23 are you speaking about Peter Lugers? Good food and expensive.
Its says business attire required on the door
There is already a better steak house in williamsburg, it has been here for 100 years before the hipsters.
I like the place… looks like it has potential… if they can manage to keep
prices fairly reasonable and food tasty,
it should draw the folks from the local nabe’ and others.
Break a breadstick DeStefano’s!
That’s been “Dee’s Corner” for the past 30 years in the various incarnations. I live down the block, and I think it’ll probably attract us oldtimers, at least those who aren’t vegetarians like I am. But a lot of things have come and gone there over the years.
I can’t imagine it getting all that much car traffic from the more suburban parts of Brooklyn, Queens or LI where their target clientele lives. If they’re going to come to Williamsburg for steak, it’s pretty obvious they’ll be headed south for Peter Luger’s.
I actually like Brooklyn movie posters on the Conselyea St. wall, though — including some less obvious Brooklyn films. But then I was born in the Truman administration.
I live a few blocks away and wonder what inspired the owners to go with the monochromatic brick/storefront/tile/paneling/paint scheme. If only they hadn’t covered up the original brick…

love Grand Street! Lodge, the clothing store – POP, Baci + Abbracci, Bozu for Sushi. Aurora, etc.. Atlas, the best coffee shop ever. Grand is on it’s way to having salons, shops and restaurants from the BQE to the river.
