Very disappointed this restaurant wasn’t as good. The Lobster Eggs Benedict was horrible; very dry little pieces of lobster, hardly any hollandaise, the poached eggs were over done and hard. We received our food cold, as if it had been sitting out for a while. The service wasn’t attentive.

Always an excellent meal at Waterzooi. My wife and I eat there about once a month. Noise level can be very high, but that is the sign of a good place to . Also greatly appreciate consistent staffing. Sign of a business that takes care of it's employees.

Best Belgian restaurant and Belgian beers on Long Island! One of the most comprehensive and extensive beer menus. They have Chimay Blue, Red and White on tap! The variety of mussels and broths are amazing!

Food was excellent our servicer. Sarah was incredible. always checking.. she even took my leftovers and re-wrapped them carefully so they wouldn't spill she was very professional

Have been to Waterzooi many many times. Meal is never a disappointment. Ingredients quality is good. The restaurant is almost always full. They have consistent staff which is a strong indicator of a well run establishment. Only down side is noise level and prices are a bit high.

Delish! This has been a go too spot for their oyster happy hour! They offer $1 blue point oysters for happy hour Monday through Friday from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM! I believe it may also be offered during the weekend but not entirely sure. This is only offered at the bar as well! Staff is very friendly and the ambience is nice and upscale!

This is our go to place for special occasions! We had a super waitress who was very attentive and fun! We were celebrating my birthday and she brought my dessert with a candle and sang Happy Birthday with my family! Food is always delicious and the specials that night were outstanding! Thank you for a wonderful evening!

We had an early dinner - 5pm, so the dining areas were not busy, however the bar was full for their "Happy hour"...... They were kind enough to give us a larger table since I told them we were quite hungry and would need additional space. We ordered the lobster special appetizer along with a mixture of oysters. Then Cesar salads with both ordering Provencial Mussels as the main entree. We top the meal off with their special Devious Triple chocolate cake along with coffee - express and a French press. The food was excellent, service attentive without pressing as we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience.

Food was super tasty and the service was great! The restaurant was just a lot louder than we expected. It was hard to converse and hear one another. I'm not sure if it's because it was a holiday weekend or if it's always like that. Otherwise it was great!
