Kellogg's Diner To Become 24-Hour Tex-Mex Spot: Reports

WILLIAMSBURG, NY — Brooklyn's old-school Kellogg's Diner, which boasts a 96-year run on Metropolitan and Union Avenues, will soon become a renovated Tex-Mex eatery, Eater New York reported.

Nura and Roberta’s chef Jackie Carnesi will take over in the Kellogg's kitchen after renovations are finished in February — and the chef already has Kellogg's listed in her Instagram bio.

The new spot will still serve 24-hour eats and will feature cocktails served at a bar, Eater reported. Despite the menu, ownership and interior design change, Kellogg's will still maintain its iconic title and sign, Carnesi told Soup & Salad Podcast.

Carnesi said Kellogg's will get a facelift from the designer of Nura, Carnesi's former restaurant in Greenpoint, and diners could see access to a rooftop, she said.

"I'm super stoked about it," Carnesi said. "It's still diner food. ... I'm really stoked about doing South Texas breakfast tacos, which are just massive ... I haven't nailed the recipe yet."

And, diners can still expect a massive, 90-item menu with desserts, Carnesi said. There will be a brunch and all-day menu, she said.

"There's still going to be like waffles and pancakes and stuff like that, but I'm going to do like masa pancakes instead of the traditional, and there'll be a couple of things that don't really change," Carnesi told Soup & Salad.

Kellogg's remains open with a smaller menu, including smash burgers, chicken pot pie and steak frites, according to Greenpointers.

The iconic Brooklyn eatery has been roiled by money problems for years and when owners declared bankruptcy in May, they put the diner up for $2.5 million.

Louis Skibar, a restauranteur already associated with Old John's near Lincoln Square, bought the restaurant, Eater reported.

"He has a number of diners, his story is also incredible," Carnesi told Soup & Salad Podcast.
