The food was fantastic - $1 oysters are hard to pass up! Beautiful charcuterie platters, steak frites, salmon cooked rare as requested. Wonderful cocktails! We were in transit and were 45 minutes late (party of 7)-they were very nicely accommodating, and there was no rushing us out! Great choice in Bushwick! More...

As we were the only ones there at 6pm, service was pretty good. The food was very good. Started with escargot, and had the mussels Provençal.

Just happened to be in Brooklyn waiting for my kids to enjoy a concert at Brooklyn Steel. This came up on Open Table because the one I found by googling 'great cafes in Brooklyn' had no spots. Thanks Open Table! This was perfect. More...

We had a great New Years Eve dinner here. Their pre fixed 5 course dinner menu was overall very good. We had to sit outside in an enclosed glass patio which thankfully was heated. Service was excellent. Cute, quaint little restaurant in the Bushwick area of Brooklyn. More...

Went with out of town relatives to show them Brooklyn and it got raves. Escargot was the winner of the appetizers and steak frites, lamb, duck, and mussels were all favorites (but my lamb was the winner. ) Dessert was amazing--the gelato/sorbets were deeply flavored and intense. Definitely a winner! More...

Informal and friendly spot. Relaxed atmosphere, helpful servers with French accent and unbeatable $1 oysters during happy hour. The snails were probably the best I have ever had. Would like to come back again for more! More...

Was genuinely surprised by how good the food was. The portions were generous so much so that we were able to bring home a doggie bag. Well priced, even the specials. Would definitely recommend giving it a try. You won't be disappointed. More...

Everything was just lovely! The food was incredible. I had the salmon with potato gratin and escargot, and my boyfriend loved his dish as well (the duck breast). Drinks were great too, and the service was perfect! This will be our new spot for regular date nights!! More...

Friendly and attentive staff. Delicious oysters and desert. We loved the vegetable lasagna, but my husband was a little disappointed with the roast duck and found the sauce to be a bit too greasy. Probably picked wrong menu item because the rest was yummy. It was lively place but not noisy - a rare combination. More...

Excellent service. Every server that came by was extremely friendly and attentive. We sat outside and their patio is super cute and cozy. Would be a great date night spot. Food was also great- 3 of us shared the meat and cheese board as an appetizer, a burger, gnocchi, and mushroom pesto pasta. All were fantastic! More...

Just found the name on Open Table and gave it a try. Quiet when we first arrived and got much busier throughout. Oysters were great. Tuna was excellent.Bathrooms could have been a little nicer. Wi definitely go back. More...

Warm and charming oasis on edgy Knickerbocker St. in Bushwick. We were seated in the "garden" in the back in the middle of February - and it was great! It's enclosed (obviously) and the floor is gravel. The main area is very lively, charming, and very different in feel, but both dining areas are wonderful. Food is good and a god value, but the kitchen is not terribly efficient. Took us over an hour to get the food and one of the dishes came a full 10 minutes after everyone else was served. Still, we were enjoying the ambience and each other's company so all good! More...

Came here for Valentine's Day, have been before. Excellent food, kitchen was a little slow but they more than made up for it by bringing a couple of comped glasses of champagne. Love their steak frites, burger is also great (but it's pretty good French food, so maybe branch out a little!) More...

A favorite date spot of ours . Dollar oysters are always fresh, with an awesome variety to choose from. The es cargo is absolutely fantastic and a special treat for us. Service is consistent without being in your face. It's got a classic feel - a small French bistro with lots of gems on the menu. More...

I had the steak which was excellent, cooked to exactly the right temperature. My girlfriend had the duck special and loved it as well. Our server, Jessica, was very friendly and attentive. To top it all off there was a lovely jazz trio playing in the corner of the garden. I'll definitely come back here again. More...

A wonderful May evening to dine in the garden. The cold avocado soup was splendid. Tart with light cucumber undertones and a dollop of cream fresh, it was the perfect Forio to our 90° day sightseeing through Brooklyn. We all followed up with a delicious salad, including goat cheese and roast beets, salad Nicoise which was divine, and a vegetable risotto. We ended the meal with single espressos and shared dense and satisfying flourless chocolate cake and a delightful creme Brulé garnished with strawberries. French rose was plentiful and easily affordable at the cocktails that we started with were refreshing and delightful. A favorite of the table was the Everest, featuring St. Germain and Rosemary. Id go back in a heartbeat and probably will do so in a couple of weeks. More...

I hesitate on writing a review, because I selfishly want to keep Mominette all to myself. This is around the corner from my boyfriend's place and we're hear at least once a week, whether for a full meal or just stopping by for wine or oysters. I LOVE Mominette. The servers are delightful and their food is outstanding. I have nothing negative to say about this spot. More...

My boyfriend and I love Mominette for brunch but this time we came in for a nice spontaneous date night. As usual, they did not disappoint. The atmosphere at night is warm and romantic, and the food is what you would expect from classic French dining, rich and flavorful. We will certainly be back. More...

WHAT an amazing meal! And our server, Eric-amazing! Great reccomendations and really sweet. I had read amazing reviews but saw the "C" grade when we walked in and got a WEE BIT freaked out about eating there. ..but decided to let that go as I know often restaurants essentially pay for a better rating from the health department...We had the Feta and Watermelon Salad, Salmon Tartare, Fish of the Day (Hake) with Ratatouille, Roasted Vegetables, and Sweet Potato Gnocchi Gratin. Some of my friends had never had Hake, and LOVED it...and I wanted more Ratatouille SO badly. Like, could have eaten it for days.We had a bottle of wine and some cocktails...and in TOTAL, with leaving a very gracious tip (25%)-we spent $45 a person! THATS IT!And the garden is EPIC! GORGEOUS! NO WORDS! WOW! More...

As usual, great food and great service. I had the Long Island Duck Breast this time which was cooked to perfection. We were sat on the terrace/patio in the back. It was buzzing back their and they had the French classic Taxi playing on a projection screen. Great ambiance!Can't wait for the coq au vin & the bœuf bourguignon to make their return this fall/winter. More...
