Red Hook Lobster Pound

I have lived in Brooklyn for 12 years, but never had dinner in Red Hook until this weekend…read more My friend was visiting, and she remembered vividly eating from the Red Hook Lobster Pound food stand in Union Square a few years ago. It made such a strong impression on my friend that she demanded we eat at this restaurant. The restaurant was packed, but we managed to get a spot at the bar and watch the Mets game. The food was immaculate, and we ordered the Hot Crab Dip, Garlic Biscuits, and I ordered "The Connecticut." All of this arrived in no time, and we will be returning soon, this time with a reservation. Hehehe.

You wander past the weathered brick warehouses and and right there on Van Brunt Street sits the Red…read moreHook Lobster Pound. Step inside, and the place nails the decor. It's got a solid, nautical feel that gives you enough brass and wood to feel like a real lobster shack. They've got a generous stretch of outdoor seating for when the weather is nice, and inside, the music sits at a good volume. Then comes the food. I started with the clam chowder. It's good ...comforting, rich, well-made ......even if it's a little light on the minced clams. I caught myself digging around with my spoon, searching for a few more chunks of clam in the creamy broth, but I forgave it because the flavor was fantastic. Main event: the Maine lobster roll. Now look, I've eaten lobster rolls all over the Northeast..and a few other places. When you order a lobster roll, you're looking for flavor and simplicity. Red Hook's roll is good. The lobster is fresh. But here's the thing: at an overall tab running around $80 a head, you expect a top-tier entry into the culinary lobster roll pantheon. Instead, it lands on the smaller side of the spectrum. Worse, the kitchen holds back on the seasoning. Lobster is sweet and rich, sure, but it needs a little help...... a hint of herbs, or just a generous hand with the salt/pepper to elevate it from good to great. It's a good roll, but when the check landed, I couldn't help feeling a bit let down. To finish, I looked at the dessert choices. Options were slim, but I ordered the flourless chocolate cake and it did the job. I'll definitely give this place a second visit and possibly try some of the other items on their menu.

BK Seafood Market was a refreshing find in Bay Ridge. We came for dinner with my wife, parents, and…read moresiblings and ordered a big family-style spread of more than 10 dishes. We had stir-fried snails, jellyfish, Dungeness crab, live steamed fish, braised eggplant with fish fillet, stir-fried cauliflower with preserved meats, coral shrimp, sliced conch with crispy tofu, beef with string beans, seasonal vegetables, and fish maw soup. Everything came out hot, delicious, and well seasoned. The Dungeness crab was a standout, and it was refreshing to enjoy such a wide variety of seafood and traditional dishes. My wife was pleasantly surprised by the entire meal. The interior was nicely done and felt different from many other Chinese restaurants in Brooklyn. Service was attentive, and they seated us in a corner where we could enjoy our family conversation without constant interruption. The food came out very quickly, maybe a little too quickly, but we were fine with it. They were unfortunately out of a few fish and clam options, as well as several wines, but it did not take away from a great dinner. Highly recommended for a family-style Chinese seafood meal in Bay Ridge.

My favorite was their chicken, eggplant and salted fish claypot dish. It's one of my favorite dishes in general and they made it very well. Definitely will come here more often and will rec my family to try this place out for our next family event.

Every dish was incredibly unique, featuring exquisite flavors that truly "dance" on the palate. Squid (5/5): Cooked to absolute perfection, it was bouncy, chewy, and paired with a sauce that tied everything together beautifully. Steaklette (4.75/5): A fantastic dish. The sauce was once again the highlight, and it paired perfectly with the potatoes. My partner found it a bit salty, but for me, the seasoning was just right While they are currently Michelin Recommended, I truly believe they deserve a Star.

Saint Julivert has been on my list since the moment it opened and I don't really have a good excuse…read morefor why I only visited for the first time last weekend. I told our server this when she asked if it was our first time dining here and she found it similarly puzzling. That said, this sentiment is one rarely expressed these days, as Saint Julivert's longevity puts it in what I'd imagine to be an exclusive, highly coveted class of restaurants that have stood the test of time in the face of changing trends, the pandemic, rent, etc. And perhaps more importantly, it has stood the test of time *and* maintained its high level of execution and quality. Saint Julivert is a neighborhood spot as memorable as it is unassuming. We came here at around 7:30pm on a Saturday night. I live quite far from Saint Julivert which is the main reason I hadn't gotten here before this past weekend. Luckily, a friend who recently moved to the area was having a party, describing the offered fare as "drinks and light bites" -- code for "not sufficient for dinner" and an opportunity to find a fun restaurant nearby to try beforehand. Walking up to Saint Julivert was a bit of a thrill for me -- both because of how long it's been on my radar and also because it's nestled on a block that otherwise seems completely residential. The space itself is much smaller than I imagined, very cozy, friendly, and down to earth. We had, in my opinion, one of the best seats in the house, which was a pair of high tops by the kitchen with loads of space for folks (read: us) who like to order a bunch of smaller plates to share. To start, we got a round of cocktails. I had to go with the Kanpai Martini (vodka, gin, shochu, cap corse, guindilla), as I pretty much always start with the martini if one is featured on the cocktail menu, and my partner got the Puerto Escondido (mezcal, beet, grapefruit, jalapeño) which is a super tasty spicy mezcal marg variation. I then tried the Diamond District (mezcal, persimmon liqueur, cocchi americano) which is a variation of one of my other go-to drinks, a white mezcal negroni. No complaints here. Food-wise, we obviously leaned into the seafood here heavily. Tried to sample as much variety as possible and I'd say we did a pretty impressive job. We weren't able to finish everything but we tried our very best. Truly everything was exceptional so my usual letter grades aren't all that necessary because it was As across the board. Eats, below: Amberjack w/ tomato water, crispy shallot, shiso oil Ideal first dish, definitely had some amuse bouche qualities, being both light and bright. The fish was incredibly fresh and the concept overall with sophisticated with use of texture and flavor that was impressive in its subtlety and execution. Chicory Salad w/ blue cheese, walnut, persimmon, coffee cider vinaigrette Our one veggie of the night and it was well worth our while, fresh winter greens with that tried and true blue cheese/walnut combo made unique by the coffee cider vinaigrette which emphasized the sweet and earthy notes of the dish and brought everything together beauitfully. Wild Shrimp w/ salted kumquat, poblano pepper, pomelo If I had to give an award to most unique of the night, it would have to go to this dish. I've had a dizzying amount of seafood over the years and I've been lucky enough try to a lot of different types of things in a lot of different types of ways and this one stands out. Something about the flavor and texture of the mostly-raw shrimp with the delicate and aromatic citrus elements. Just impossibly fresh, bright, and delicious. Octopus w/ pipián verde, roasted tomatillo juice, cucumber, serrano A preparation I'm used to seeing served warm but I enjoyed it cold just the same. The overall flavor profile was predictable but the elements contributing to it were less so. The green mole was delicious and overall this dish was a perfect bridge between the lighter and the richer, a segue so perfect it was as if it was divinely ordained. Squid a la Plancha w/ pine nut, maitake mushroom, tinta, poblano The first of two warm dishes we ordered. A nice complement to some of the lighter dishes we had earlier in the meal that were more aromatic/vegetal/gardenia vibes, this dish was earthier, more umami and grounding. Jerked Hamachi Collar w/ mango-pickle mayo, lime Hard to finish with this because it was probably the richest of the dishes and we were already somewhat full by this point, but I ate as much as I could because it was just that good. The mango-pickle mayo was just sublime, the fish was perfectly cooked and seasoned beautifully -- altogether a playful and powerful way to end the meal.

It was the $252.86 plus a TIP of $45.20! I immediately returned to discuss the discrepancies. The tip that was supposed to be $38 was now $45.20! The waitress then said she would credit my account. My question was how did this happen! All three waitresses stated it was not them and that the machine did this! How was this possible? Not one of them took responsibility for the discrepancies! Had I not looked at my bank statement then I would never have known that I would be tipping her twice! I then decided to leave to explain to my mom! Then the short Indian (I think) than sarcastically stated "Oh so now you're not going to tip us" Really! I drove 10 blocks and I NEVER ONCE STATED THAT I WAS NOT GOING TO TIP HER! I merely was going to let my mom know what happened and then TIP her! Note* I was going to give her a $100 cash TIP! Had she given me the REAL receipt with the $45 TIP then I would have given her $50 CASH but since she only produced the REAL receipt after I came back (how ironic) and told her she charged the wrong amount, she would have received $100 TIP. But since the short Indian waitress made that slick remark, she did not receive anything! After the disrespect and blaming the machine and giving me a fake receipt? I decided to leave!

I started with the Fried Calamari, which is always an amazing classic with its crisp and flavor, but I was so excited to try the Mussel Dolma. I didn't know what to expect, so I was definitely surprised to see it was served cold. The combination of the mussel, rice, currants, and warm spices were truly immaculate and blended together seamlessly. For the main course, I ordered the Iskender Steak: a 10-ounce grilled Black Angus strip served over flatbread with brown butter, tomato sauce, and yogurt. Every single bite was rich, savory, and satisfying. I paired it with a side of their Cherry Rice, and I would've never thought to add cherries in rice... but let me tell you, this was easily my favorite dish of the night.. It added the perfect touch of sweetness to the savory rice, making every bite more elevated. To finish, I had their pistachio dessert served with a ladyfinger cookie, and it was the perfect light and creamy ending to an incredible meal. I would love to come back and order Rana's Table to get a sample of all they have to offer.If you're looking to try something beyond the usual dinner spots, Rana Fifteen absolutely deserves a spot on your list!

The inside of the restaurant is decorated nicely, however one of the lights above us was flickering for the entire meal which was annoying at first, but we eventually tuned it out.

For the entree we chose the Iskender Steak. For the side we got the Yogurt Potatoes. The dessert was chosen for us - some sort of pistachio mousse. All the food was good. Between the 8 appetizers and 4 mezes - some we loved, some were just ok. But a lot of that opinion is based on personal preference. If you're planning on eating here, bring your appetite and definitely consider the Rana's Table. Being able to try so many options all at once was a fun and unique experience. Service was good.

For return visit, I would definitely order drinks and smoked trout dip. Because they seem to update their menu, who knows what the main would be... Nevertheless, service was impeccable, the ambience was really chill and had a sexy vibe. although the place was full and really busy, it didn't seem that loud.

So... I took my sister to Claw Daddy'a because I love crabs and had read the raving reviews of this place. The staff was friendly enough when we got there but they were IDK, stalker-ish. The waitress must have been in training cuz she was accompanied by what seemed to be the manager who had the widest, almost mocking smile I have ever seen. It was a little antagonizing and just seemed fake as we would ask her questions about the menu and she would give this grand smile meanwhile not providing an answer to our question.. ya had to be there. Ok enough of her, even though she stopped by like 7 times to inform us she would be closing out...shrugs.... We both ordered the pound of shrimp and pound of crablegs with some grilled oysters and deviled eggs as apps. The coconut adult caprisun was tasty and didnt need the mint leaves but still good. The oysters were very very rubbery..Im not sure if thats the way they are meant to be but I could only get down 2 of them cuz it took 10 minutes to chew each one..Moving on to the entree.. The food came out in the bags and looked great! til we tasted the seafood. I dont know about you, but I love seafood to taste like something. This food tasted bland like they simply boiled them and then threw them into their signature cajun sauce they put on everything..horrible. I asked for garlic butter and noticed large cloves of garlic just swimming around the cajun sauce and had I not seen them, I wouldve thought they got my sauce wrong. There was simply heat, no real flavor, just heat. I requested a side of melted butter and they acted like they never heard of it. In fact, that was the only way I could even down my crablegs as I had to wipe the cajun sauce off and dip it in the butter otherwise i wouldve thrown out the crablegs and at 27 bucks a pound, thats saying alot. I only ate 4 shrimp as they seemed undercooked and had zero flavor outside of that wretched sauce. I asked whether there was an option to only have the seafood tossed in butter garlic sauce and they said no since the sauce is premade. All in all, I do not believe I will return to Claw Daddy and at $170 for 2 people, next time we will just head to canal street and buy the fresh seafood and flavor it oursselves at home or at this point, I may just give up seafood. The music was good though... read more

The girl taking my order clearly wasn't trained or had a handle on the language. She kept having to go back & forth to get pricing for items that was by weight. She was a sweetheart & knew very little. After I finally placed my order & waiting for dungeness crab w/ corn & my appetizers 2 server came out from the main dining area to tell e their is no dungeness crabs & haven't been nor will they have any for the week. Something about new restaurant & vendors...I was a bit upset but let it go & just went ahead & ordered some King crab legs...which I absolutely didn't want!! The shrimp & deviled egg were cool & all but still it's just deviled eggs. The Capri sun was pure syrup & ice!! No alcohol in sight. I actually had to order a seltzer to counter all that sugar. I was so over it I didn't even eat the crablegs there + it was late so I took it home. Now, I don't know who on this planet boils crab legs. Not steamed just boiled; like an egg. WITHOUT ANY SEASONING AT ALL. THIS IS NOT LOUISIANA STYLE COOKING!! The "Crab Daddy" sauce was horrible. This sauce had no taste. Just big chunks of garlic & a ton of peppercorn. No salt or any type of flavor. The legs were so over cooked the meet was hard & the shells were soft. It was bland and lacking any hint of seafood. Don't waste your time or $$. You can find better steamed seafood @ any steam fish spot on Nostrand, Fulton, Utica etc. U can choose ur spice levels, garlic, butter, corn, sweet (potato) okra, string beans....however u like it. read more

Claw Daddy for date night? Let's just say, I came for the seafood but stayed for the, uh... noodles? I'm a sucker for a good seafood boil, but Claw Daddy wasn't my top pick. However, my date swears by their king crabs, so naturally, we rolled with that. He went for the king crab boil, while I set my sights on the lobster boil. Now, let me tell you my main gripe--it's a whole lobster or nothing. Like, where's the love for us lobster tail enthusiasts? It's commitment or no lobster, apparently. We kicked things off with alligator bites and garlic noodles. The alligator bites? They were fine, but honestly, they tasted like calamari with a side of identity crisis. Well-seasoned, though, and the dipping sauce? That sauce did the heavy lifting, bringing out the actual alligator flavor. Now, on to the boil. It was solid, no complaints there. Plus, I scored some free garlic noodles from my Yelp check-in (the real MVP of the night). They were as garlicky as they were delicious, so that's a win. But, here's the kicker: no real alcoholic drinks. What's a seafood boil without a proper drink to wash it down? All in all, Claw Daddy gets a 2/5 from me. Give me lobster tails and a cocktail, and we'll talk. Otherwise, I'm just here for the free noodles. read more

My family and I went out to celebrate my mom's birthday and we got the Claw Feast! The price for the feast and all that you get in it is a GREAT DEAL! I recommend going for the Claw Feast but you need to have 4 or more people to get the deal and it's only on certain days during the week so be mindful of that as its not an everyday deal. read more

Did a pickup of the delivery since there is no outdoor dining. Loved the food not bad at all. The shrimp po boy was pretty big, was not expecting that. The drinks come with ice in a separate capri packet. The drinks are great. Definitely loved 'Just a Dream' drink. All were pretty strong too! read more

Great seafood boil!! Service was fast and friendly. Especially Yuchin who served us that night. Great for groups who want to enjoy a fun dinner before a night out as there was a DJ that night. I think his name was Ryan. He even took my request to play Drake all night long!!!!! read more

Wet to the the Lower East Side location with co workers a few times so I figured this would be a good place as well; definitely right on that one! I always had a great time with the drinks during Happy Hour and it was the same thing here (Get the Adult Capri Sun!) read more

Definitely a great atmosphere. The food is amazing and the staff is very attentive and friendly. If you haven't gone there or tried it out, then you're clearly missing out on amazing food and a great time. Will definitely be back. The food is worth the price. read more

I had the Cajun boil with sausage, snow crab legs, and two boiled eggs. It was decent and they held the garlic for me. Because I got a half order boil it wasn't much to show. Three sausages, one cluster of four crab legs and two boiled eggs. The sauce is a little saucy and oily but other than that it was good. I ordered a kid's catfish dinner to go because I want to see how their fried catfish taste. It came with sweet potatoes fries and corn as sides but the waitress put garlic broccoli as a side instead and I am not a happy camper given that I don't like garlic and I was looking forward to putting the corn in my leftover Cajun sauce.

My friend and I came here to take advantage of Restaurant Week, and ironically, this restaurant was…read moreon both of our "go-to restaurant" lists. There was no time like the present to finally give it a try. We made a reservation, and I'm glad we did because the restaurant is on the smaller, cozy side. I would definitely recommend making a reservation, especially on the weekends. They also have happy hour from 5-7 p.m., so we ordered drinks and oysters. The oysters were good, and so were the drinks. I tried the Kid Creole, which is made with Barbancourt, sherry, lime, guava, and simple syrup, and it was delicious. For our appetizers, I had the Summer Crab & Corn Chowder, and it was very good--creamy and well-balanced. My friend had the Fried Green Tomatoes and enjoyed them as well. For our entrée, we both ordered the pan-seared snapper with three-cheese stone-ground grits, truffle oil, and a charred pepper and onion medley. The fish was well-seasoned, and the grits were excellent. I'm not usually a fan of grits unless they have cheese, and these definitely didn't disappoint. For dessert, I had the ice cream, while my friend ordered the bread pudding. The bread pudding was a bit tough and wasn't served warm, as it typically is. However, they corrected the issue, which we both appreciated. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely come back to try other dishes. I especially appreciated the friendly welcome when we arrived and the excellent customer service throughout our visit.

Upon entering, the hostess was very dry - almost like she didn't even want to work. We were seated and I noticed the sanitation bottle itself was dirty and had food residue on it. We asked for a replacement. The replacement was from another table and this was almost empty. Next, we looked at the area where they were pulling the food out and noticed the female server (Kenya or Kendra whatever her name was), out in the open, cleaning/digging her nose. It was quite disgusting and very unsanitary. Subsequently, She grabbed straws for our drinks . We then watched her grab someone's food and delivered it. We told Mickey who informed her of our observations. We asked him to bring out new straws. She came to our table with sure plates and slammed them on the table with attitude. We refused to touch them because she has yet to wash her hands. She then stood behind us, leaned on the wall and glared at us with hands crossed with attitude. Why give us attitude when you were unsanitary ? Was it because you were called out ? Throughout our meal, she kept glaring at us and being passive aggressive. The appetizers were tasteful . The rib deviled eggs were good but it had an unexpected sweet taste to it. The country omelette was burnt and the shrimp with grits were too watery for my liking. I expected it to be thicker. Wouldn't return.

The service was terrible waiter was not attentive she got my order wrong and she didn't seem interested in waiting tables her attitude was a little off putting. I ordered king crab muscles and head on shrimp as well as a clam chowder. My friend ordered the garlic noodles. We also ordered drinks. The garlic noodles were just a small scoop of fishy noodles my friend hated them. The muscles shrimp and crab were in a good sauce it was very flavorful. The clam chowder was good as well the crackers were stale though. However I feel like the price was a little pricey for what we got and the service charge for terrible service is crazy. Although the sauce was good we won't be back.

Everyone was very sweet & welcoming. The outdoor seating is very nice & had a wonderful view of the water with nice lighting at night. They do however, have indoor seating as well. I also have to commend the staff for being so kind. Our server was very friendly, sweet, attentive & provided an exceptional service that added points to such a wonderful birthday dinner celebration. The drinks, appetizers, entrees & the birthday cake were all so beautifully made & seasoned perfectly. The food was definitely fresh & cooked perfectly. I find the prices pretty good considering the quality in the food & service. Yes a gratuity is already added but we don't care about that since we added more to the tip anyway. It was all worth it & will definitely be coming back. This would be a place I highly recommend. There was also a photographer there who was such a sweetheart. We took pictures & bought a few that were framed in a glass picture frame. Definitely one for the books! Sorry about the lack of photos, I took quick ones but I really just love to live in the moment so I didn't really take my time with it

Shrimp with pasta Alfredo - excellent flavor, shrimp cooked well (not overcooked). Pasta is great. Shrimp in garlic sauce - maybe scampi. Also excellently made. Fried calamari- not the best ever, but well cooked. Has that crisp that you expect. Marinara is yummy. What I'm not thrilled about, service. Got a table of 14 people. Waiter comes by asks maybe half the table for drink orders and disappears. Bussing empty plates is very slow. Checking on the table is occasional. Far from ideal. They brought dessert but no coffee or tea without requests. A big table needs more attention than a table of 2. Would I come back? Yea probably. Their outdoor deck is nice. Except for the mosquitos. Citronella candles on the table don't exactly set the mood

It appears the husband is manning the bar, while taking orders, serving, and busing the table at the front of the restaurant. The wife is in the kitchen and comes out to the bar from time to time. There may be a few other people working here, but understand tings take time. There is one toilet, clean as it may be to the back right behind pocket door that failed to flush while I was there. They took care of the issue, but it's one more thing that may annoy a person. They have a DJ on weekend nights and that may well suit the context and energy of the small triangle park in front of the restaurant quite well. If you're not accustomed to that kind of atmosphere, you may be turned off, but it might be the mood and energy you're seeking. If you can focus on the food, that is where you will be rewarded. I ordered the curry shrimp and it was delicious. The rice was cooked perfectly and the shrimp was not overcooked. The chef was paying close attention to cooking times and the curry sauce was right on point. The veggies were also not overcooked. In the midst of all that was going on that Saturday night, the DJing, the number of people in the busy little restaurant, the kitchen was together and turning out great food at a reasonable price in the low twenties, albeit with some delay in producing the same. Island Shack is very popular with the locals here. You can order a drink, sit in the small park, and enjoy great conversation as many people do here. I took my beer and curry shrimp outside as well and enjoyed the people in the small park. It's a vibe and you can catch it here as many people do. You have to understand Island Shack in context to appreciate it fully, especially when the weather is cooperative. 3.6 stars

The seafood boils are served with potatoes, corn, and garlic bread. You have a choice of the twist special sauce (spice level is adjustable) or garlic butter; both are delicious. The seafood is very fresh here; I've tried all types - shrimp, crawfish, clams, snow crab, king crab, lobster, mussels, and cuttlefish. I've never had a bad meal here and would highly recommend this place if you enjoy seafood. I've also tried their baked oyster appetizer which is phenomenal. Service: Staff are friendly and very attentive. Service was excellent. Ambiance: The restaurant is not big, but they have a good number of tables. Both small and large groups can be accommodated. The place is a bit out of the water with nothing else around the area, but it's worth the trek if you're already at Industry City or Costco in the area. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant!
