Food was amazzzzzinggg. The server Daniel was even better. Explained everything well. Came and checked on us - anticipated needs. Incredible.
Food 6/10 Extremely salty, way too overpowering flavors in most of the dishes that just did not sit well together. The only thing I liked about this meal was the yams. The labneh was not bad, but both the baklava and cheesecake were excessively sweet, and the dips were pure salt. Quite an unfortunate experience. Atmosphere 6/10 The air conditioning was so weak that we were sweating and felt so sticky throughout the entire meal. My skin felt so sticky and uncomfortable. Service 6/10 Quite slow, laissez-faire hipster vibes.
I came here with my friend for a late lunch about a month ago and it was great! We didn't have a reservation, but we were able to get seated right away. The dining room is beautiful, with lots of natural light that's let in through the big windows at the front. The service was excellent and the menu had so many delicious options. We ordered a few of the mezzes, including the labne and the hummus, and they were so good. For entrees, we ordered the crispy yams, the little gems salad and the shakshouka and everything was so filling and delicious. I would absolutely come back here again for dinner or just to get a drink at the bar.
The epitome of industrial chic on the border of Greenpoint and LIC. Used to be a glass factory, the vibes are intimate and cozy, surrounded by brick walls, plants, and the hipster vibe that Brooklyn is known for. Amazing for a date or small group! One of the many Mediterranean spots in Greenpoint and Williamsburg, their food is a hit or miss. The Labne and Griddle bread is a MUST 10/10. Skip the kingfish crudo and coconut panna cotta. The combination of flavors is surprising and courageous but doesn't always work out. I'm a big fan of cilantro - addicted even, and I could not get pass it the combination with coconut. Service was great and the owner himself came to check on our tables, and clarify any food allergies and there were a few at our table.
I found this place in the Michelin guide and immediately went there. I really wanted to try their smoked eggplant appetizer and after reading the menu I decided to take a Mezza Feast. The mezze feast had a lot of options and every one of them looked beautiful. I immediately reached for the eggplant and, oh no, that was my first disappointment. It was like I ate a spoon of liquid smoke. Lots of smokiness and not a drop of eggplant flavor. I began to taste other appetizers and almost all of them had one thing in common - an oversaturated taste of seasonings and the lack of the ingredient's taste. Such aggressive taste enhancers simply did not allow you to enjoy combinations of appetizers, they just overwhelmed you taste buds. We didn't finish our mezze feast, even though we were quite hungry. On the bright side, the hummus was good. Also, this place has an interestresting interior and pleasant staff. But I wouldn't come back here, after all, the food is the deciding factor.
The concept here is excellent, but the execution imperfect. On a Sunday fall afternoon, what could possibly sound more appealing than a "mezze feast" paired with cocktails or a cold brew in a beautifully converted factory at the far end of Greenpoint? Indeed, there were some items that lived up to the narrative, including the environs, which were indeed charming, and the unexpectedly delicious "griddle bread," read: scallion pancake without the scallions. The falafel was also excellent. As for the cold mezzes themselves, I couldn't help but feel a bit underwhelmed - the labne was adorned with some tasty spices, but otherwise joined the hummus and eggplant mash in being rather unmemorable. My shakshuka was nicely textured with the egg, but served with a toast that was hard enough to break a jaw. Service was also "leisurely," so don't come here if you're in a rush.
Intimate setting with an impressive menu! This restaurant is very unique and has some menu options that will leave your taste buds wondering how can something soo simple taste soo good. When I was told this had a Middle Eastern influence I was expecting your generic food items, but I was completely blown away by the uniqueness of this menu and flavors. I would have liked to see more options as the menu is very small. They even ran out of the lamb mixed grill entree on a Saturday night. The prices are a bit up there, and the plates are not that filling (I like to eat a lot especially if it tastes great). Definitely a great date spot with an amazing atmosphere. Make reservations as it will be fully packed. The staff is on point. Parking can be tough.
i may have had to trek 20 minutes in the searing sun walking across the bridge from queens to greenpoint to find this restaurant but my oh my was it worth it. truly some of the best pita I've had (high praise). The falafel was fried to a perfect crisp without being dry and were also the size of tennis balls I swear. Beets weren't my favorite and I wish you could choose the mezze offerings but at $24 I don't think this can be beat.
If I had to choose a personal favorite restaurant in Broolyn, it'd hands down be Glasserie; During my summer living in NY, it was the only spot I visited twice. Once a glass factory, Glasserie embodies a hipster-trendy vibe with exposed brick and candlelight (And true to the millennial taste, we love a converted industrial space). Its cozy and perfect for couples or small groups. Tucked away at the upper edge of Greenpoint towards Long Island City, it requires a Subway change from the L to G, making it a hidden gem of sorts. Reservations here are helpful but I wouldn't say essential. If this restaurant were in the heart of Williamsburg, I guarantee it'd have blown up by now and would've lost its underground appeal. Greenpoint overall is the epitome of up and coming; Grab a drink next door at the neighborhood favorite Greenpoint Beer & Ale Co pre dinner and bar hop along nearby Franklin Street afterwards. I'd come here for the ambiance alone, but the real draw here is the FOOD. Mediterranean is up there as one of my top favorite cuisines, and Glasserie's modern take on it does not disappoint. I highly recommend doing family style here, as the dishes are designed to be sharable. Some standouts: - Smoky Eggplant and Pita (the perfect amount of smoky) - Scallops, favoe & roe (melts in your mouth) - Maitakes, barley & black garlic (surprises you with its flavor) Cannot recommend Glasserie enough - Impress your Manhattan or Williamsburg friends and take them here immediately!

Amazing food! My favorite dish we ordered was the duck rolls. The crispy exterior was perfectly flaky and not too heavy or overpowering and fried feeling. The beer salad help to balance everything out as well and was light and refreshing. The lamb shawarma had great flavor too. The interior is nice and cozy and when we went had lots of open windows and natural lighting peaking through. Staff were nice and helped take our order. read more
Came here for brunch a couple weeks ago and loved everything about it. The food was delicious, portion sizes large and quick service. I will for sure be back to try the entire dip offering but truly you're not going to go wrong with whatever you order here. read more
Old glass factory converted to a pretty resto. The ambience here was so nice. Came here for brunch and opted for the mezze feast, which was pretty good! Came with lots of mezze to feast on. The pita was also great. The merguez and eggs was also pretty good. The merguez was spicy and flavorful and the poached eggs were cooked perfectly. Overall a great Mediterranean joint with a great vibe that I would not mind coming back to! Service was also pretty good. read more

Lovely Mediterranean place at the edge of Greenpoint! Came in on a Sunday night with a reservation, but would say walk ins would have worked as well. Ordered the eggplant and pita - pita was well spiced with zaatar and delicious. Crispy yams were my favorite for the night, paired well with a lime aioli. Also got the tilefish fillet, which came with a nutty brown butter sauce that was good. Very filling amount for two people and would definitely recommend! read more
Glasserie was awesome for dinner! This is a great spot for cocktails, as well as the food. I will admit it is a bit far from the subway, though in nicer weather I'm sure it will be great to walk to in the summer. Since we didn't have a reservation we first sat at the bar and ordered different cocktails on the menu. All were quite good and we learned they changed their cocktail menu seasonally. I highly recommend the old fashioned if that's your drink of choice. In terms of food, the small plates are excellent for sharing and you cannot miss out on the cauliflower - with hazelnuts and cous cous it's perfect and unique. The fish and chicken were great for larger plates and all the sauces or sides were well paired. I would return to Glasserie, next time with a reservation read more

Cute casual spot, admittedly in the middle of nowhere. Apparently you should come with at least a party of four because the mezze feast looked amazing but alas the two of us did not have enough stomachs. We tried: - pita 10/10: excellent and really fluffy and chewy and remarkable. I dont think i can ever eat another pita without thinking of this one. Highly recommend - smoked eggplant 9/10: quite good and creamy but the smokiness is not very strong - falafels 9/10: comes out super hot and fresh and delicious - shakshuka 8/10: also comes out piping hot and stays hot thanks to the ceramic, only wish there was more of it. Not sure i'd be back again for brunch since the menu is quite limited, but maybe would be back with more people to get the feast. read more

Had the Persian Gold for cocktails, their Mezze feast and yam for food. We can on an early Sunday afternoon so the place wasn't particularly packed but it definitely has a nice Brooklyn vibe. Good service. Great food (especially the Mezze). Will come back again. read more

The servers were very friendly and attentive, and the food came out really quickly. We found most dishes too oily and salty for our taste however. We had to scrape the Za'atar seasoning off of the flatbread that came with the eggplant as it was inedible for us otherwise. The griddle / potato bread that came with the labneh seemed very over fried and oil seeped out when you squashed it. I've had a lot of labneh in my lifetime and the small ball that we were served was very stodgy and not very pleasant to eat. Not at all like a good quality labneh. The little gem salad was also very over seasoned and the falafel was over fried / burnt. The mushroom dish wasn't too bad but had a sort of Asian type flavor which we were not expecting. Unfortunately both of us were really not feeling well the next day, and we can't rule out that it was from the food. read more
Had planned a birthday dinner for a friend and made reservations for 9 pm for table of 5, which we were able to get pretty easily on a Saturday night. The restaurant feels like it's in the middle of nowhere, and there aren't any bars until you hit Manhattan Ave. The hostess was friendly and seated us as soon as all of us were there. We ordered a few dipping sauces with bread and food was delicious. I ordered a Rabbit Salad ($20) which was just ok. At $20 I was expecting it to be packed with flavor, however that wasn't the case. Service was excellent and they have some really nice cocktails. The place is relatively quiet so one can have audible conversations! read more

This spot is AWESOME!! Probably my favorite in all of greenpoint - it is Mediterranean fusion. The hummus, sweet potato and lamb are absolute musts. These dishes were so unique and had so much depth in their flavors. I was thinking about them for days after leaving the restaurant and can't wait to go back. Also the old fashions with the chunk of ice were 10/10. The vibe is old warehouse with simple but really cool decor and charm. This is a really special spot and highly recommend if looking for amazing restaurant in GP. read more

A lovely and trendy spot in Greenpoint near the water with great service, cute decor and Mediterranean food! We came with a reservation for dinner on a Friday evening and got the fried and stuffed olives, hummus roasted tomato and pita, half chicken, and duck. The food was definitely pricier than what we felt like it should've been - but everything was good, and the hummus and pita was especially amazing! I wouldn't go out of my way to revisit, but we had a really nice time here and I would definitely recommend it if you're in the area and don't mind splurging a little. read more

Had an amazing brunch here over the weekend. I rarely venture out to Brooklyn and I'm glad I did to experience Glasserie. I got there before my reservation and although I couldn't be seated until my entire party arrived - the staff was nice and brought me excellent cold brew and water to drink while waiting. We ordered a bunch of things to share for the table and everything was delicious. The Mezze Feast for $23 is a must get (especially for the bread)! A lot of food and a great way to try a little bit of everything. There was nothing in the spread that wasn't loved by everyone. The seat griddle bread was also delicious. Not sure of what sauce they use or how exactly it's made, but it's 100% worth ordering and eating. The ambiance in the restaurant is upscale without being too pretentious and rustic chic while still being comfortable and cozy. My only regret is not having enough room to try the dessert! read more

Is Glasserie handicap accessible? Wheelchair will be able to get into the restaurant?
I'm not entirely sure, but I think not. My experience with is is that it's a very pretty, but tight space. I think someone in a wheelchair would struggle to enjoy this place (as a plus sized lady, it's tight for me!). That said, a phone call to…
