    Red Shakshuka

    Pleasantly surprised!!!! This Kosher food place was very good including service. The ambiance is beautiful. Definitely coming back to have some shakshuka.

    Goat Cheese Egg Roll

    Excellent food! Went out for dinner ordered the goat cheese egg roll definitely recommend them. Got the pescada salad it was good but the dressing that comes with it we didn't like so we got a different dressing. Ordered the salmon burgers which sounded good but that we didn't really like. It tasted more like a fish and vegetable patty. When I think of salmon burger I think of just salmon and grilled. So that I don't recommend. For dessert we got the churros which was soo good!!! They came with raspberry and chocolate sauce as well as French Creme and ice cream. Now for the service it was fantastic! We had Mike and he was very accommodating and very helpful. What ever extra we needed he went and got it for us. Thank you!

    Pasta Verde

    I've been here a few times with some Kosher family members, and it's okay. I think the prices are pretty high but that pretty much goes for most Kosher restaurants. The pizza is okay, but could use more cheese in my opinion. They have some very interesting and unique salads to try also. My favorite dish there was the pasta verde. It was like a fettuccine Alfredo with zucchini, spinach, and basil. It was very flavorful and the vegetables were cooked nicely and not mushy or anything. Pescada also has a nice aesthetic and indoor and outdoor dining.

    I personally came in for lunch with a friend and we ordered appetizers because we were not starving. We ordered the mozzarella sticks, goat cheese egg rolls, and fish tacos- EVERYTHING WAS FRIED. We could not even taste the fish in the tacos which was super disappointing. We left literally feeling like we needed to eat a salad afterwards. I feel like this restaurant is super confused and needs a menu makeover - the menu is HUGE and not focused. In my opinion considering the name is Pescada which literally means a kind of small sea fish; they should focus on being a fish restaurant rather than a dairy restaurant. The waiters do not even know what is popular which is a hint that the restaurant is focused on way too many things. The service was also terrible, it felt like when we asked for more water or even to order dessert (which was the only decent part of the whole experience) we were an inconvenience to them. Once we paid we did receive a 10% off coupon to visit their meat restaurant which I am nervous to try after this horrendous meal, but willing to give it a try!

    Horrible service. Unprofessional. When customers walk in, and the 3 workers behind the bar casually look up and then, glance away, letting us hang awkwardly at the entrance not sure what we should do .... Id say that is impolite, and the owner of pescada definitely hasn't properly built a culture of kindness and willingness to do the right thing for the customer at his company. We were apparently not the top priority, because those 3 people chose to ignore us. In fact.... After dangling around the front looking around for a close to a minute we had to approach them ourselves and ask if we could sit and eat.. The response was... "Oh, um..... you gotta wait." Hmm... We waited in this awkward wide open space by the door, maybe around 2-4min, and then just left. Some side notes for you: The layout of this location is very poor and is a bad execution and use of the space. At first glance both me and my partner looked at each other and thought we had crashed someone's bat mitzva - it looks like a catering hall. Very uninviting.. Terrible. And I know it's called pescada but it smells just way too strong in there. Not a deal breaker I get it, it's a fish place, just a comment. *Lastly, iwill probably go to their other location at some point. Will review when I go. Hope it's a better experience.

    Pescada has been a favourite of mine ever since they opened their location at Ave P. When I was told they were opening this location, I couldn't have been more excited. I really wished and hoped the space would be vastly different than the other location and lo and behold this space is the bomb! You walk in to a very polished, well lit, modern decor greeting you. From the calm blue walls, to the white tables and chairs, you just know you're going to be comfortable dining here. Of course, the moment I walked in Chef Lior came to greet our party and told us not to worry he was going to create a dinner for us to remember. Boy, all our belts were unfastened by the time that meal was over. Appetizers to mains to desserts was just incredible! The artichoke ceviche is an absolute must get. The flavors of all ingredients combined in that dish is out of this world. I'm not a fan of stuffed mushrooms but the way its prepared here makes me want to stuff my mouth with them. For our mains, we got a grilled rare tuna, and a sea bass dish. Both accompanied by Pescada fries and california stir fry! The tuna was grilled to perfection of course with a beautiful pink and juicy center. The sea bass too, oh so tasty and delicate. Everything about our dinner here was true perfection. Take note this was part of the soft opening and I couldn't have been more impressed. They will also be using this space to make parties and events. I will surely recommend them.

    If you are in the neighborhood I would say, these smash burger are a good option for you…read more Ambiance: Came here in the afternoon, and the vibe was relaxed with nice music in the background and a lot of seatings. Food: Smash burger are great, they are not the best but I would rank it as top 5 in the city. I was pretty surprised how they charge for cheese (the place is mostly Kosher, and the Cheese of I remember is vegan) which contradict the concept of smash burgers. The fries were overly cooked if not almost burned, so I couldnt eat half of the basket. Service: ordering regular fries and getting trufle fries just to charge me extra is not a nice move. But having those popcorn and water cup made up for it little bit. If I knew I would be charged that much (burger + fries) I would have chosen from the lunch special menu

    Wanted to like this place more but it missed the mark. This is really a 3.5 star review…read more I went on a weekday around 12:30 and it was completely empty. I was told to take a menu from the counter and that I could have a seat. Tried to order a mint lemonade but they didn't have any mint. OK so I ordered a strawberry basil iced tea, which was refreshing, but didn't really have much flavor in my opinion. When I looked at the menu, they had a lot of different burger options but I settled for a Smashburger that was shown on a summer menu. However, I then watched the waiter offer two groups who came after me a lunch special menu that was not offered or mentioned to me. Had I known there were lunch specials, I would've checked them out to see if I wanted to order. So I was a little upset that these were offered to everyone except me. In terms of the actual burger, I found the patties to be way too thin, even for a smash burger. To me it left the burger, feeling kind of skimp and not fulfilling at all. I also ordered fries which were honestly the star of the show. Lastly, I didn't feel like the service was up to par. There was a large table in front of a door and the waiter kept yelling to people to not sit at the table because he needed to access the door. My question is, why place a table in a spot that you know you need to be able to go in and out of? And then on top of that when he gave me the bill, it said one price, however, after I paid and a receipt was brought to me to sign it, had a different price. What I think happened is he did not add the drink the first time and I didn't notice, but I feel like when this happened you should just say to the customer that you forgot to add something and here's a new receipt. There was also an automatic 15% gratuity, which I wasn't fond of. I spent $40 for a lunch that I barely liked. Way too overpriced and not worth the visit imo.

If that's not the most Brooklyn thing ever, I don't know what is. Same sandwiches, different blessing. Everybody says order the pastrami, so I listened like a grown man should. Pastrami on rye with spicy mustard absolutely slapped. Smoky, juicy, perfectly stacked, and messy enough to ruin your shirt with honor. Then came the beef brisket on rye with a cup of au jus for dipping... and brother, that dip should be studied by scientists. Pure perfection. Washed everything down with a Dr. Brown's root beer like it was 1957. No fake trendy nonsense. No deconstructed sandwiches. Just old-school deli greatness that punches you directly in the soul. Great food doesn't care where you come from -- it just brings everybody to the same table. That's New York. That's Brooklyn.

    Losing stars. Because I don't know if anyone who works there has ever eaten or seen a sandwich…read more Asked for extra mayo. Maybe this made them mad. As there's barely any mayo. But a mess of green peppers. Like a whole green pepper on an uncut sandwich. Uncut! Let's be real. I'm at the mercy of the person who buys me lunch. And they eat brisket. So get the brisket. But don't dare get a simple turkey sandwich. And also, they're misrepresenting that they have chicken salad. They do not. Or maybe they've been lying about it.

Chef Erick, formerly of Boru Boru and other high Michelin star rated spots, is the executive chef here now and doing what he does best to make this gastropub a huge success. Dishes you'll be familiar with but with a slight twist in a good way is the name of the game here. The vibe is upbeat, staff is friendly and the food is on point. This night we had the caramelized medjool dates with chunks of crispy beef bacon, pickled red onions with a drizzle of aioli that but thru the sweet and have it a nice balance. Their signature burger is ultra juicy bf flavorful, even if you must get it well done ;), the Duck pastrami was really tender and had all the flavors of what a traditional pastrami would have. Their charcuterie board was phenomenal and chef said he'd be updating it from time to time with new additions as well. And I'm physical obsessed with their pickled veggies jar!! Loved their olive oil cake served with an in season persimmon and kumquat coulis, almost like a short cake and the sweet and tart of the fruit coulis complimented really well. So get your GNO, BNO, birthday, date night, family celebration going here! It's a fun night out with great food, beautiful ambiance and upgrade energy! Oh and they will hold your table 20 min past your reservation time, DO NOT BE LATER THAN THAT because there is a ton of walk ins and they will give your table up to one of the many hungry patrons waiting. Which I do very much appreciate that they stick to that rule.
