We were greeted by a lovely, warm, and fun bar tender who was also doing wait service. She was…read moretotally attentive (not invasive) and every time she walked away we said "we love her". So that was nice. As well, the (I'm assuming) owner was coming around checking on people to make sure that they were happy. I appreciate that. The place is charming. Small and warm without being cramped. The most wonderful thing was that, though there was music playing, we could actually here each other as we spoke in normal voices!! I really hate restaurants that play music too loud - which seems to be the thing now. If I wanted thumpa, thumba, oonce, oonce, I'd go to a club. The food was really great. One of our party had the veggie lasagna, which she was really happy with. Two of us had the bouillabaisse and they loved it. I had the boeuf bourguinon and it was so yummy and rich! It was so rich I couldn't finish it... though that might have been because of the parsley garlic fries and beet salad that we split before our main meals. I will not say it's cheap... it's not. $16 for a glass of wine, but I will go again.

Food-wise we ended up ordering the burrata (delicious!), escargot, steak Tartare w/ fries, and the ravioli in cream sauce... All were delicious and the ravioli really surprised us! Loved how flavorful and tiny each were. We halso got some drinks too. Overall a fantastic meal!

Overall: I went here with my wife for a Friday night dinner. We walked in with no reservation and…read morewere seated immediately. The food and service were awesome. The specials menu was very diverse and had a ton of things I wanted to try, it was tough to choose. We even mentioned we were new to the neighborhood and they treated us to a free dessert! We'll definitely be back! Food: 5 Drinks: 3 Service: 5 Value: 3 Atmosphere: 4 Food: We got the strawberry rhubarb duck, the blacked lamb, and the spinach with garlic. The duck is a breast and boneless thigh. The breast was cooked perfectly and the flavors were interesting, but I might try one of the other sauces next time. The lamb and its sauce was delicious, we caught ourselves trying to scrape up every last bit. We would happily order that again. The spinach was well seasoned and nicely cooked. Drinks: We each got a red sangria. It was bourbon based with several other fruit juices. It was alright but not spectacular. Service: Our waiter was fantastic. He was attentive, descriptive, and super helpful at helping us choose our dishes. Value: Dishes were a little on the pricey side ($30-$60 for an entree) but they were high quality. Atmosphere: We really enjoyed coming here for dinner. It was dimly lit with plenty of room to spread out.

Visited this spot twice during winter 2026 restaurant week for $45 three course dinner…read more Make reservations--this place is tiny, so seating is very limited and you won't be able to just walk in during peak dinning hours [especially Friday through Sunday]. The bar is tiny, seating only 7 people, and it's where we sat Friday night. The bartender [and our server] was phenomenal--wish we got his name. He had an earing and deserves all the kudos for spectacular service all night long. We took our time and never felt rushed. He made perfectly balanced drinks, keeping us happy. Espresso martini and all the non-alcoholic drinks were superb. Very refreshing and balanced. The manager/owner mingles with customers, ensuring everyone is happy. He was attentive and that was appreciated. Tuesday night, we had a very different experience. All the staff looked like they were still in high school. Our drinks tasted like they had zero alcohol, and comparing to a delicious experience Friday night, we knew that the issue was with who mixed the concoctions. People are other tables also left their mixed drinks almost untouched. Unfortunate timing. Maybe the new staff were being trained. Our order was also messed up a few times. Then our dessert was forgotten. Seems like logistics were off that night. All small things, but they add up and take a star off. The atmosphere is casual and low key. Tables are very close together due to space constraints, so this isn't a spot for big groups or intimate chats. Prepare for higher than average noise levels as the cacophony of conversation rises in a tight space. The prices are higher than what you'd expect for such an unassuming, casual, minimalistic environment. That is due to the quality of food, so prepare to spend a pretty penny here. I totally understand this for quality meat--game is not cheap. We paid $300 for two people on our first night and $200 for two people for our second visit [when we got bad luck with watered down drinks and decided not to waste more money on repeats]. We are not wine people, so we cannot speak to the extensive wine selection here. However, all the mixed drinks should be strong and adequately sized for the price. Getting a microscroping glass of an espresso martini or hot toddy for that price AND not tasting any alcohol in those baby glasses is not acceptable. Complimentary foccacia with olive oil is a nice touch. Turtle soup [served with a side of sherry that I highly recommend adding to give it that extra oooomph] was delicious. Definitely try this if you can. So hearty and satisfying. Additional $6 upcharge for venison bourguignon was so worth it. Such delicious meat. Divine sauce. I could eat this dish daily and be happy. Tender and flavorful venison. Additional $8 upcharge for a side of Fries. They were superb--fired in beef fat/tallow, the quality shows. I never eat fries, but these I devoured both times and felt supreme joy. Not greasy or heavy. Perfectly satisfying. It's insane, but I'd return just for these. What a difference quality ingredients make. You can taste it. Additional $8 upcharge for a side of Brussels sprouts. They were not my favorite. They were not crispy. Sauteed in oil with some bacon. You can skip this. All the desserts looked scrumptious--so there is no wrong choice here. Keylime pie was perfectly tangy and satisfying. Flourless chocolate hazelnut cake was a divine conclusion to the meal--not too sweet, dense and decadent and chocolatey and warm in the best way possible. Would I return again? Yes, the food was delicious, I'd want to try more menu items. Would I return outside of restaurant week considering the prices, the tight seating, and potentially wacky service? Probably not.

The food here was pretty mediocre, but we were starving. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich ($16) with Fries (+$4) while the fiance had the Pulled Pork Sandwich ($15). We also ordered an Old Fashioned ($12) and The Pineapple Drink ($13). The old fashioned was very strong whereas I actually enjoyed the pineapple drink a bit more from the pineapple sweetness. Our food came out pretty quickly though. The fried chicken was huge, but not as crispy as I would've liked. It was filled with toppings, which made it a fulfilling sandwich. I have to say that the onion slice was too thick though, that I almost thought it was a slice of cucumber or something. Onion is strong so I would prefer it sliced thinner or caramelized for better flavor. The fries on the side were solid, but cole slaw was too dry to enjoy. Overall, decent spot but food was just ok. Come by for a drink if you're in the neighborhood, but nothing else that'll bring me back here.

The pasta dishes, octopus, stews, carrots with yellowfin tuna. Every plate reveals a distinct constellation of ingredients, techniques, climates, and histories. The menu unfolds as a succession of gastronomic worlds, each carrying its own material intelligence and cultural memory. The space is equally compelling. It combines the abstract continuity and refined materiality of Mies's architecture with furniture that feels patiently assembled from remarkable vintage discoveries. Rather than restoring the building to a single moment, the design allows different layers of time to remain visible and in dialogue. The outdoor spaces are beautifully composed and lovingly gardened, extending the same care and intelligence that define the interiors. The service is warm, attentive, and impeccably professional. Nothing here is performative. The precision of the cooking, the calm confidence of the architecture, and the generosity of the hospitality all belong to the same sensibility. A remarkably well-kept secret in Park Slope.

That being said, I was definitely a bit disappointed by the food. The Negroni spagliato was a bit weak, albeit tasty, but in a gigantic glass that was pretty unwieldy and hard to hold lol. We started with the pickled vegetable and wet bread appetizer which was strange and really salty. Wouldn't order again. The spaghetti al vongole was ok but not super flavorful and the clams were a bit chewy. The fish was also mediocre and tasted too fishy to be fresh, but the sauce it came in was delicious. I wish I had that sauce over the spaghetti! All in all, I wouldn't return but it's an ok choice if you need somewhere quick in the area. Service was great and friendly.

Its become a tradition to go to Mazzat after our tax appt. In all these years not only have we never had a bad meal, but the meal has always been exceptional! Today it was just my wife and I. Our two sons had other plans. Even though it was just us two, we ordered like there were four. We started off with drinks. My wife had the Mango Sunrise and I had a Mojito. Carlos, who does a little bit of everything at Mazzat recommended it and it was the best Mojito I've ever had! Well balanced, the mint stood out and the agave gave it just the right touch of sweetness. Mazzat is a place where food is meant to be shared so we ordered multiple apps and two entrees. We got hummus, merguez (lamb sausage), garlic shrimp and chicken cigars, which you can also order with lamb. All of it came with a basket of soft pita with crispy pita chips added. The hummus has the consistency of Gelato; smooth with the slightest of lemon flavor, drizzled with olive oil and paired perfectly with the pita. Chicken cigars come with an avocado crema that complements the smoky flavor of the chicken inside. Shrimp was fantastic and the merguez equally so. Both come bathed in olive oil and spices, perfect for dipping. My wife had shakshuka because she's a big tomato fan and was very happy with her choice. I got the half marinated chicken which comes with bulghur rice, a side salad and a garlic dipping sauce. The chicken had a deep smoky grilled taste that permeates the meat. It didnt need the dipping sauce but the dipping sauce was a great partner nonetheless. The bulghur rice deserves it's own paragraph to describe it but I'll keep it to buttery, soft and fluffy and unbelievably delicious! We also ordered a fattoush salad which is as good as it gets as far as salads go. We consider Mazzat our favorite restaurant pound for pound. When it comes to food quality, quantity, value, freshness, service and atmosphere, you'll be hard pressed to get any better than Mazzat. Apologies for the long read but I feel you have to give a restaurant like Mazzat it's kudos and that just won't happen thoroughly in a one paragraph review.

The fried cauliflower was light and crispy, the falafel in the vegetarian platter was flavorful and the perfect texture. Really nice hummus and dips, the greens were fresh and came with the rack of lamb and branzino, which were both the standout dishes. The lamb was tender, flavorful, and not greasy. The fish had a beautiful crispy skin and fresh citrus seasoning. The baklava was super light and had the perfect amount of syrup, which is a hard thing to do. The mint lemonade was also delightful and perfect for a hot day. The beet salad was good, but not essential. I think this is a hidden gem for a high quality but unpretentious atmosphere, great for a special occasion without the stuffiness of an expensive buzzy spot. Would love to come back!
