I completely and whole-heartedly disagree, with the previous post. Although it's a bitch to get a seat most of the weekend nights, the food there is out of this world. I've never had cold mac in the millions of times I've gone there and ordered it.

boo. dumont is overrated and coasts along on its location and atmosphere. the food (particularly the dumac and cheese) is unexceptional and, to top it off, is sometimes served cold. for better brunch in williamsburg, head over to union star on union ave, or even oznot's. lola's is good too but they're dirty if you ask me. i've heard good things about 'diner' but i haven't actually been there. miss williamsburg is in the same category as dumont, a standard for hipsters out more for an environment and a conversation point than for good food.

I heart DuMont. It's the one thing (beside fortunados) that we always go back to the burg for. They used to have this sweet cheese stuffed french toast that was to die for, but the last time we brunched there it was no longer on the menu. Dinner is equally tasty. They sometimes have a killer Pork special and their daily Roasted Chicken is incredible. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, and so are you cause of all the tables in the small place. Also if you go for dinner or anything for that matter, realize that the place fills up. Since they open for dinnger at 6, if you go at 7 you probably will be sitting at the bar until 8pm until the next shift of eaters takes over. It really is comfort. Park Slope needs something like this.
