Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY · $
A neighborhood bar serving perfect martinis & seafood towers. Taking design cues from iconic Parisian brasseries & bistros, the warm, art nouveau-inspired interior is anchored by a raw bar display and a large hand painted tile mural depicting two cats at play underneath a large moon hovering over the Williamsburg bridge, backed by the Manhattan skyline.
“Gorgeous cocktail bar. Had some sharing plates (cheese fries, beef tartare and tuna) and drinks. Great music and amazing ambience. Service was a bit slow sometimes but really friendly staff”
“Cleanest martini I’ve had in a while. It’s not on the menu but until 6pm the deux chats martini is $13. Great balance of gin and brine, such that people who aren’t gin fans would still enjoy this. I’ll be back to try the other martinis.”
“I visited this bar about a month ago, and overall the experience was good. The martini cocktails were well-made, and the food was enjoyable. The atmosphere itself is pleasant and definitely makes for a nice evening out. That being said, the biggest disappointment was the state of the restroom. There’s one unspoken rule — if you want to know how much a place respects its customers, just check the restroom. Unfortunately, it was terrible: the smell, the dirty sinks… it completely took away from the otherwise good impression. I understand that perhaps you were aiming to create a French-inspired atmosphere, but cleanliness is non-negotiable.”
“Overall, it was a decent spot, went on a Monday and you definitely are better off with a reservation as it was packed! The food was well below average - shrimp cocktail tasted like laundry detergent but the carb dip and ricotta slapped. Cocktails were lovely, very easy to drink.”
“The loveliest of cocktail bars in BK. The atmosphere is very classic NYC. The martinis are all delicious and the seafood towers are impressive. The espresso martini is one of the best I’ve ever had! This place tends to fill up so I highly recommend a reservation. The perfect setting for a date night! The ambiance is dark and intimate. My only complaint is sometimes the service is rather slow. And when it is full it is so loud you can barely hear the people you are with.”
