We’ve been coming here for years. The food is always delicious and the cocktails are good. We’ve tried almost the whole menu. One of our favorites is the clams. But the jerk wings are right behind. I love that you can go for anything, brunch, lunch, dinner, or cocktails and a snack. For cocktails, I recommend the painkiller, but their rotating signature list is great. They also now have dessert on the menu, which we always wished they had. It does get pretty busy on a Friday or Saturday night, so definitely reserve.

My favorite place for pasta & cocktails. Absolutely recommend Spring Tagliatelle with chicken, mushrooms and ricotta - that’s the reason why I will return again and again. Plus in my personal top - potato tots with cheddar cheese and chives (I even tried to cook it at home). Cocktails are tasty and quality. Very good place, recommend it!

It is funny...I have passed this place so many times and have eaten in other restaurants in the area, but I never gave this place a second thought. That is until I saw a posting about this restaurant on Instagram. This place is so cute and the staff is so nice and friendly. They have a pretty selective menu and the food I ordered came out fast, fresh and delicious. They also have a heated patio for those that are still not comfortable eating indoors. I will definitely be back soon, if not for dinner, but for brunch.😁

Reliably delicious oysters, great wine. The visuals of this spot are beautiful : fresh flowers on every table, beautiful wall art, and a well stacked bar. Come here for breakfast or brunch: avocado toast (with bacon) and a latte. Or come for dinner: a short menu boast some good eats, and I especially vouch for the burger and old fashioned. Seating is comfortable and sensible, with indoor and outdoor optional.

Solid 4 stars. Seated right away on an early Friday night. Got drinks, and ordered, service to start was great, friendly and on it. Truffle fries and salad for the table were amazing and was really looking forward to entrees. I got the fried chicken sandwich with.... well more fries because they were really good. The fries that came with my sandwich were burnt? Like, fried, but then baked?? And the end were burnt? No idea, and totally not seasoned.... literally at all. My sandwich was good?? Fine, good. Also.... no seasoning. The stuff that was on it was good so like.....I had that. But then I was really hoping someone would come ask how things were so i could ask for salt...... didn't happen. Ate the sandwich, wished it had any salt.... like, salt things when they come out of the fryer....... then finally, I got to ask for some salt, and got to finish the other half of the chicken that fell out of the sandwich..... which was good!!!! Anyway, I know lots of people who live this place. I love that it's in the neighborhood. Good beers. Things that should be good. Maybe the kitchen could learn how to season. The rest of my table liked their food very much, but my wife is pretty anti salt, and her friend put ketchup on everything.

Nestled along Cortelyou Road in Brooklyn’s Flatbush neighborhood, The Castello Plan presents itself as a beacon of culinary charm, effortlessly blending rustic ambiance with a contemporary twist. The establishment’s heated patio invites patrons to linger, offering a cozy retreat that complements its inviting interior. The menu, while not extensive, is thoughtfully curated, showcasing a fusion of Italian and French influences. Dishes like the Butternut Squash Gnocchi, accompanied by oyster mushrooms, browned butter, parmesan, and sunflower seeds, highlight the kitchen’s dedication to harmonious flavor combinations. The Ricotta Gnocchi, paired with asparagus and truffle oil, further exemplifies this commitment. Brunch offerings are equally enticing, with selections such as the challah French toast, served with sour cream and plum jam, standing out as a testament to the kitchen’s creativity. The beverage program, featuring craft beers and inventive cocktails, complements the dining experience, inviting guests to indulge in leisurely afternoons or spirited evenings. Service is attentive, with a staff that balances professionalism and warmth, enhancing the overall dining experience. The ambiance, characterized by tasteful music played at a considerate volume, allows for intimate conversations without the need for raised voices. While The Castello Plan excels in many areas, there is room for growth. Expanding the menu to include a broader range of options could cater to diverse palates and dietary preferences. Additionally, ensuring that all dishes consistently meet the high standards set by the standout items would further solidify its reputation.

I had a craving for fried chicken sandwiches. So I looked up for a decent place that will deliver. Honestly, I lowered my expectations a bit because ordering fried chicken for delivery is quite tricky to expect the best product. But I was surprised that the chicken was not soggy with sweat but had a perfect texture and well seasoned. The pickled red onions and arugula were perfect in this stack. I’m giving it a 4 rating because I ordered to have fries with a particular seasoning and they missed that. Anyway, if you are looking to get good quality delivered food, I will highly recommend this spot!

Rustic, simple, and good food. It can definitely get loud, and it’s better if you are only a party of two because the tables are small. The food is pretty consistent and balanced. If you don’t want to do dishes, this is a good spot to get a basic meal and enjoy it.

We made an in-person reservation the day before, but when we arrived, the staff claimed they’d never heard of it and acted like seating us was a favor. No apology at all. Service was slow, the burger we asked to be well done came raw and bloody, and the mussels were undercooked. Then they added a 20% gratuity even though we weren’t a party of six, and still suggested adding another tip on top, seriously? Terrible service, unsafe food, and zero accountability.

I had a terrible experience at Castelo Plan on September 4th and will not be returning. My boyfriend and I arrived 45 minutes before closing (on a Thursday) and were told no cocktails would be served, only wine and beer, despite there being only a few couples there. After ordering wine, we were reminded multiple times about closing, which already made us feel rushed. We tried to sit by the bar, but one of the employees was slamming things around and visibly disgruntled, so we moved to a quieter spot. At one point, I noticed a roach, which was unsettling. When we moved to a round table that had clearly been cleaned, a staff member (blonde male) came over and raised his voice, saying the table was “never open to anyone” - something we knew was not true. Moments later, he sat there himself, drinking a cocktail angrily. The atmosphere only got worse: the music grew increasingly loud and aggressive, the curtains were pulled closed while we still had full glasses, and the check was slammed down within minutes of being served. The overall energy was hostile and unwelcoming, and we felt pushed out before even finishing our drinks. Hospitality is about making guests feel welcome, but this experience was the opposite. Very disappointing.
