REVIEW | Alder & Oak beckons with pizza and a good time

Free local news and info, in your inbox at 6 a.m. M-F. On my first visit to Alder & Oak at The Hub Brooklyn, curiosity and hunger pangs guided our ordering strategy, which meant my dining companion and I ended up with about twice as many dishes as the typical two-top at the determinedly stylish Mediterranean restaurant. When a server arrived with our selections from the menu’s “Earth” and “Sea” sections—more prosaically known as “entrees”—she became visibly apprehensive. While she could find space on the fog gray wooden table for all the Greek-motif dinnerware she was carrying, the arrangement struck her as uncomfortably crowded.

We can’t wait to see you!," the restaurant announced Oct. 19 on Facebook. It won't be offering breakfast on reopening day. But breakfast service will resume as normal going forward, according to the post. No injuries were reported in the June 9 predawn fire believed to have been sparked by an electrical issue.

Repairs and alterations to the 4,969-square-foot restaurant were estimated at $1.5 million, according to a July 9 city building permit. Dating back to 2004, the restaurant has had different franchise owners over the years, Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation online records show.
