The food was yummy! The restaurant is a bit new and short staffed but it's going to be a lovely addition to the neighborhood. Can't wait to see how it grows into the neighborhood.

I came back again for the burger! I had the same server. his name is Blake. he gave the best Service again. only two employees on a busy night, but they worked well together and, despite them being understaffed; they did a great job. this place is getting better everyday! I wish that they had more than one bathroom, but it's a great space and really good cocktails. I hope that In summer they bring back live music. I don't know if they ever had live music, but it said on the website they have. If the service stays the same, this place could be a go to destination for locals, tourists, and maybe old school nyc people that know where hot spot is. Oysters and very good. I will continue to tell my co workers about this place If it doesn't go back to service 2 months ago. Good luck water st tavern I brought my friends here and we had a great night

We were in dumbo for ice skating and this spot was well worth the walk for a welcoming atmosphere, good music, warm food and a cocktail list that will make you tipsy. Gerald, the manager was the most excellent host. We were seated at the bar and we had a great conversation. He even made a cocktail for me off of the menu. From the food menu - get the spicy rigatoni pasta! It's Carbone level, without the reservation hassle.

I worked there briefly. The owner is a racist. I watched him tell two black guys who came in a few minutes before close, that we were already closed. Then 5 white women walked in 10 minutes after we closed, and I was about to leave, and he wanted me to serve them. He was mad that I told them we were closed. I called him out on the racism thing, and he said it was because they didnt look like our "normal" clientele, and said that they were probably underage, but he didn't check their ID's,he just told them we were closed. I had to quit. You can judge for yourself, but beware of this business.

Food falls far short of the aesthetics, and the service was dire. Don't do it - you're worth

Stopped in for drinks, talked to the very knowledgeable bartender about the craft of each cocktail. You could tell he loved it. They were delicious!

Really liked the ambiance and the staff were excellent - so friendly and chill and attentive even when they were a small crew on a crazy New Year's Eve! The one cocktail I tried wasn't the best I've ever had, but I'll definitely be back.

I asked the waitresses if my tip would go fully to them because they did a wonderful job waiting the table but they said the owner forces all the waitresses to hand in their tips and then I also doesn't pay them what they earn. Never go here...ever!!!!!!

Staff incredibly rude and agressive. Place was pretty much empty. Made to feel unwelcome. Sombre atmosphere. Left after 5 minutes.
