    Charcuterie
    Sally A.

    We went in for a super quick bite as we were in a hurry. We were seated immediately on a Saturday evening. The staff understood the need for speed. We ordered thier charcuterie board and 2 glasses of gamay. The wine was delicious. The bread was okay. We got 4 meats, 2 pates and prosciutto and salami. The pates were great. The prosciutto and salami were nothing special.

    Dropped into Bushwick to visit our son. Walked here for brunch. Very short wait for a table. Had a couple of drinks, spritzer and bloody mary, to be specific. The drinks were fine for a brunch place, but the food was excellent. I had a burger, my wife had the eggs benedict and our son had the chicken and waffles. Three happy plates. The restaurant is a little snug and a bit loud, but that shouldn't be a deterrent. You can still have a nice conversation and there's plenty of room once you are seated. I recommend this establishment to anyone visiting Bushwick.

    A friend brought us here during our New York trip, and it ended up being one of the best spots we ate at! The service was fantastic -- which says a lot considering we were a group of seven (and not the easiest to manage). The food was just as impressive. They had a great variety, whether you're more into breakfast or brunch, which made everyone in our group happy. Plus, the space was perfectly cool and comfortable on a super hot day. Can't recommend this place enough!

    It's the first time I had escargot in a while and it was garlicky and nice. It had a nice balance in flavor and texture. We also had oysters and it's the first time I've enjoyed east coast oysters, usually they're a tad bit too briny for me. The pasta was delicious but there were a few small pieces of shell I bit into. Other than that, it was saffrony and nice. I ordered it simply because I craved a dish with scallops and it was the only one.

    I really love this cozy, intimate restaurant. It may be small, but it delivers big on flavor. You have to start with the escargot--it's a must. The standout for me, though, is the duck confit. Lightly fried for perfectly crispy skin, with tender, fall-off-the-bone duck, served alongside chips--absolutely delicious! Finishing the night with the crème brûlée was the perfect touch.

    Checked out this French Bistro & Oyster Bar in Bushwick, Brooklyn this evening. It's has a cozy, casual, and warm ambiance with a quaint saloon vibe! I had Escargot and Ratatouille for the first time, and it was delicious Www.mominette.com

    I just happen to be walking by and I see the $1 oyster happy hour sign I decided to give it a try as well as a cocktail I also purchased French fries which really went to waste I only needed 4 to be full and satisfied This is a cute nice place that I need to return to

    Ambiance = 5 stars - rustic French Caribbean feel Service = 5 stars Food = 5 stars I could make this my regular brunch spot only if parking wasn't so hard.

    These were some of the best oysters I've ever had, and the burger was truly unbelievable. Extremely high quality meat and I love that they served mayo and ketchup on the side so I could dress the burger to my personal taste. Top it off with an elite cocktail selection and we've got an immediate candidate for my favorite bar/restaurant in Bushwick. The service was also incredible -- I walked in drenched after a sudden downpour and both the bartender and my waiter offered me towels to dry myself off, which went a long way. Ambiance was also fantastic I can't recommend this place enough!!

    Back with another neighborhood joint! If you've read my last reviews, then you know I'm on a mission to explore all the food gems my hood has to offer. This week, I checked out Mominette for brunch with my big bro who was visiting this weekend. We arrived around 1pm on Sunday and we were seated out back within five minutes. We started with a Bellini carafe which was a pretty decent price but too much juice and not enough bubbly. For our meals, he had the Smoked Salmon Benedict and I went with the Steak and Eggs as it's one of the only gluten free options on the menu. Wish they had GF bread for the burger. Anywho, can't wait to stop by for the oyster happy hour and dinner!

    Came here for dinner before the Seven Sins show at Theather 14. Backyard is cute but the mosquitoes were having a field day on my leg by the fan; there's running water in the vines that's creating them. With that aside staff were nice and attentive. The food was ok. I ordered the Pàtes aux fruits de mer-seafood pasta. It needed some salt and pepper but not too bad. My friend had the Mominette burger and she said, it was good. I also had the Je M'apelle for drink and it was good. Not too far from the train about a good 2 -3 blocks. I also liked the variety or French music being played. I Def want to fo try the Charcuterie plate.

    Great place in heart of Bushwick. Food was ok. Wait for food is long. Price point are high for the quality of fare. Food: Madame Croquet was not good. Ham was dry. Mimosa was watered down. Ambiance: nice backyard space to eat in. It is dog friendly and the the waiters are nice.

    I really enjoyed the oysters. Their drinks are also great. I wish there was more seating but there wasn't much you can do about that.

However, I was quickly proven wrong. Not only was the service topnotch, but the drinks were surprisingly delicious and refreshing. There's a ton of options which is also surprising considering the tap only format. Upon further reflection of how tiny the bar is, it makes sense why they would go this route. It would be challenging for one person let alone two to be behind that bar shaking and stirring. I also heard there's a back area with more seating but we didn't explore much further than the front bar stool seating. Seems like a cool spot for happy hour or late night drinks and I would definitely return!

We were lucky to grab 2 seats at the bar as the rest of the seating actually seemed a bit cramped and uninviting. They advertise a heated back patio but I don't think the heat was on and no one was there, which is a bummer. Regardless, the theme is nice with everything attributable to their "laboratory" ambience. Everything is served in beakers or similar glasses. It can get a bit crowded sitting at the bar as that's where everyone orders drinks but otherwise this was quite enjoyable. Will definitely keep on the list for HH.
