This is the FIRST time, my boyfriend and I have not enjoyed our date night meal. The music and ambience are phenomenal. The cellar was closed because it was short staffed - so we were seated in the garden. Service was rather slow - our appetizers came with our entree about 40 mins after we placed the order. It wasn't as though our appetizer was complex, it was prosciutto and smoked mackerel with bread. People seated after us received their dishes before us. Italian meatballs w/ MASHED (not smashed) potatoes. Oh, the sauce was bland. The mashed potatoes with tomato sauce just felt like leftovers... the meatballs were dry. I did not want to finish them. It was simply unappealing. Burger was a mess, there are FAR too many items on it that make it entirely messy. The arugula was so bitter, it had to be removed immediately. Honestly, the highlight of our meal was an oat milk cappuccino and the music. read more

Came on a Monday night without reservations and was able to grab a tiny table. They didn't check vaccine cards at all. The service was pretty slow even when there weren't that many tables yet around us. We ordered the steamed mussels and st Mazie burger and it took around 30 mins for our food to come. I really enjoyed the mussels, the broth was great for the thick pieces of bread they gave and there were plenty of mussels. The burger had a lot left to be desired in my opinion. It felt small and the meat didn't have much flavor. Overall, this seems like a fantastic date night spot, didn't get to hear the band perform but service is a more lackluster and the food is a toss up. read more

St Mazie's great atmosphere is consistently overshadowed by really bad service. I've been here several times, sitting upstairs and downstairs in the cellar. The service staff consistently makes you feel like a nuisance. Drinks take way too long. They hardly acknowledge you or worse they give you attitude over a simple request. I've given them so many chances and am consistently let down. Since this has happened with so many servers I can't help this is a management problem. Busyness is not an excuse for bad service!! read more

This was a hidden gem for us while traveling to NYC. We came here to listen to the live jazz music. We sat at the bar with no wait. All the bartenders were amazing and super friendly. We ordered some mussels and burrata. The mussels broth was great and ordered extra bread to soak it up. Burrata was a tasty dish too. The jazz music was fantastic and we found ourselves dancing the night away. Such a great place, we ended up coming back to back nights. read more

We went here on a Saturday evening. They have live jazz, and it was very much our kind of music. We liked that part. However the tables are tiny. The surface of the table is about the same size as the top of the chair we sat on. It was quite uncomfortable. When our waitress brought our first round of appetizers, she could only put one on the table and told us she would put the other one on the adjacent table until we finished the first plate. She was super nice actually and was trying to help. The drinks were good. The first appetizer we had - the burrata, was pretty good. All the other appetizers and mains here so-so. Overall food was nothing great. And the tables were quite uncomfortably small. But the drinks and the service were great. read more

Awesome spot with live music! Got really lucky to sit at the bar at 7pm on a Saturday. I'd highly recommend making a reservation. They have indoor and outdoor (both on the street and in their back garden). They didn't ask for vaccination cards and none of the staff wore masks. They were super busy the night I was there and visibly understaffed. They had a wedding happening in the garden in the back and a full crowd indoors. The music was great; classy and not too loud. They charge a $15/person cover if you want to sit near the stage. We ordered several small dishes, peppers, Brussels, truffle gnocchi and roasted cauliflower for apps! They gnocchi was my fav. For entrees we split the burger, prosciutto flatbread and the mushroom risotto. The mushroom risotto was hands down the best dish. The burger was good but the patty itself was small. The flatbread was undercooked. Serve was slow; took about 30-40 min from the time we ordered our food til when it arrived. The atmosphere was definitely perfect for a romantic date night! Highly recommend! Make a reservation early! read more

Wow - what a gem - ever since our favorite jazz club closed in the city we've tried many spots across the city from Brooklyn to the upper east side. The service, ambiance and especially the music was spectacular. I'm so happy to find a new favorite jazz club that strikes the perfect balance between music, quality and an inviting environment. read more

Very romantic even if you're just hanging out. The live music is such a nice touch. The cellar is cozy and I mean that in the best way. A little crowded, but you feel the warmth of the place. Our server was so kind, I believe her name was Greta. The food was flavorful and filling and the drinks were great! Definitely find you're a fan of live music. Book the cellar because if you've ever see French Jazz in Paris, it will feel very similar. read more

My favorite place ever!. We are here again because it was me and me friend favorite place. Yhe menu has changed mussels that we loved was not in the menu anymore. So this night we have Cioppino Seafood stew with gramolata toasts. It ia a new fish for us but it is very delicious. We still wish they have the old massel bu the new menu it is good also. This is a first time my friend and I are actually hanging out here during the week. So yhe bar tendener is very nice read more

I love the dark & cozy vibe of this place and the music and ambience is great, so good for date nights. My partner really liked the Mazie Burger but my fettuccine was just okay. The drinks were pretty good too but pricey for what it is. The postcard they give you with the bill is a cute touch though! read more

The servers were so friendly and the live music was lovely! I appreciated that everything on the menu was labeled that was gluten or dairy free. There weren't many options for food however and my chicken pot pie (gf) wasn't worth the $28 price tag. read more

I came here for dinner on a Friday night with a reservation for the garden area, which is very pretty and far away enough from the jazz music that you could have a conversation. I got the burger and a side of cauliflower. Both were OK but nothing I would say you must try, the side of potatoes and the aïoli were probably the most delicious thing out of everything. I also had a nonalcoholic IPA and their ginger cocktail without alcohol, which was pretty good. In between getting our drinks and getting our order taken there was a very long wait. It's a very cool place but the food is nothing to rave about. I came here for the jazz brunch which was also a great vibe but i don't recall the food being spectacular either. read more

This is such a great date spot. The bar is intimate yet fun with live music (a three piece band) and old fashioned decor that makes it for a really good time. The food is super tasty as well. I got the Mexican Firing Squad cocktail and it was really delicious. I recommend it for anyone who likes a drink that doesn't taste like straight booze, but also doesn't want something too sweet. It's nice and tart. We split some of the small shares and all were delicious. The Balthazar bread was very good and the olive oil on the side complimented it well. I think my favorite dish was the artichoke - it was well cooked and the aioli on the side was to die for! We also had the cauliflower which was delicious and the truffle gnocchi (I could have actually used it being slightly more truffle-y but it was good nonetheless. We had great service and our table was front row for the band which was super fun. Would absolutely return and recommend! read more

Good place with amazing ambience and great music. The music and ambiance steals the show every time, the seating is cozy and eclectic and the music never fails to impress. Even took a lil recording and posted it below to show you the great variety this place has to offer. One thing, the servers could be more attentive and kinder. But these are hard times... still....

Fantastic place for music, service, food, location and ambiance. Had the cod fish potato brandade and pasta with lemon. Comfortable seating.

St Mazie is a great spot! It is cozy, romantic and relaxing. We came on a Friday night and sat right by the band. The band started playing promptly and were so good! For reference, the band was Charlie Roman Hot Club and they play St Mazie frequently from my understanding. Our server was spectacular. She was on top of everything, and she had so many tables to keep track of, but she did it with ease. She constantly checked on us, gave great recommendations and made sure we were happy with everything. We never felt like we were forgotten, quite the opposite. We had drinks, small plates and large plates. Everything was excellent from the deviled eggs to the burger. We even had dessert - chocolate mousse. There was an additional fee of $15 per person to have seating near the band, but we didn't mind this (and it was disclosed prior to making the reservation). This isn't a cheap night out by any means, but it is definitely an enjoyable one. We will definitely be back! read more

Super cozy and romantic with great music and service. The drinks were decent and the food looked good

2.5 stars out of 5 for experience. They have a lovely outdoor seating area with umbrellas for shade. Depending what time of day you go the umbrellas should cast enough shade to keep you cool on a hot day. We were the only table there. Table of two for a bite and drinks. Not sure why the service was extremely slow, could be a number of reasons especially now during these weird times so we most definitely give them a pass for that. Despite being the only the table we get it. It's not normal procedures I'm sure for the restaurant. I ordered a cocktail and my brother a beer. My mezcal cocktail was on the pricey side for what it was. It was good not too strong. I ordered the burger. It came with pickles and home fries. All of which came out cold. The home fries were dry but well seasoned. The burger was over cooked ( I asked for it to be med rare) but honestly if it was warmer and cooked less I would have liked it. The pickles funny enough were warm. I think the plate had been sitting out for a while? Idk what's going on. Not sure if our server had an off day but there was little to no greeting or interactions regarding the meal/ drinks. Would have been nice to at least be checked on to see how things were going. Would have ordered another round but server was nowhere to be found. Not sure if this experience which was our first was nice enough to give it another try. read more

I can't stop raving about this place. The moment I walked in I felt so welcomed by all the staff (which is such a relief compared to all those NYC bars where the bartenders think they're too good for you to be a kind person and ignore you until you behave to get your order in). The drinks are great and the place has its own vibe. I never understood until coming here why and how people become regulars at bars. If I lived in the area, I would make this spot my local place. read more

I had the most lovely date at this gem of a place. Live beautiful jazz music playing in a classy gorgeously decorated establishment that was heart eyes galore. We were sat at the bar but it was comfy and when we asked to be moved to a booth to continue the fun, Jake, our server, was more than happy to oblige and was extremely nice to us. Thank you, Jake! We ordered the artichoke which was delicious paired with a bottle of orange wine. Please go check this place out, it was the best! read more

I came here on a Friday night with my boyfriend. We ordered 3 drinks and a muscle pot. The drinks were solid, the old fashion was great. The muscles were good But the lemon grass wasn't used correctly and so every time we to tried to soup up some muscle juice it had a weird barky texture since lemon grass it's self is inedible. What really threw us off those two things. Although the band was great while in the middle of our meal, one of the band members or band members significant other came up to us asking for Tips. We were fingers deep into our muscle pot and said "sorry were just a little messy right now and can't reach into anything" she then proceeded to ask and stood there until we tipped her. It was a really an uncomfortable situation And the folks next to us even mentioned how uncomfortable she made them as well. To add on we were seated in a corner and couldn't even see the band. The second thing that the through Us off us was when we were ready to pay our waitress Brought us our bill for $54. After we gave her our card and she came back with the receipt we saw that $86 was charged instead. When we asked her what happened she had no explanation and said that was the right amount. After 10 minutes we finally got it figured. But as she was leaving she turned around and hit the guy next to us in the head with her card reading machine. Just an overall weird experience. read more

Great dinner with friends. The vibe is cozy and relaxed, perfect for a weeknight. I had - Oysters: very good! I didn't know they had them, it was a pleasant surprise - the grain bowl, with the smoked whitefish. Amazing combination of flavors and textures...and super yummy for a healthy dish! I also tried the black bean burger from my bf and it was great. The pretzel bun is genius. The staff was super nice and made us feel comfortable. I accidentally knocked down my wine glass and made a mess...the waitress was an angel. She picked up the glass and cleaned and made sure everything was OK...all without making me feel like an asshole. Chapeau! Also, there was live jazz music. What a delight. read more

This place is seriously awesome, so much so that I daresay it's one of the most unique dining experiences in Williamsburg. Prepare to be transported to a totally different time and place after walking in and if you're dining, prepare to be wowed by a bunch of fantastic flavors. For cocktails I got the "said and done," a mixture of vodka and ginger syrup, which was so refreshing. My date got a red wine carafe and this was a lot of good red wine at a reasonable price. We shared the mushroom risotto to start. It was honestly perfect; so much mushroom flavor, cooked just right, and the mushrooms had a hearty texture. Definitely comfort food at its finest. Then we shared the roast chicken and short ribs for mains. The chicken tasted fresh, was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and served with a big dollop of mashed potatoes. The short ribs were falling-off-the-bone tender and served on top of a delicious white bean mixture. Then there is the music and atmosphere which almost makes you feel like you're on the Titanic or at an old school jazz bar. And the fact that you can go upstairs and watch live jazz bars at your leisure. And there's an outdoor patio. This place kind've has it all! read more

Stumbled into St. Mazie with a friend on a Monday night and was so glad I did. The restaurant is intimate and trendy, but the food was divine. They have regular live music bands that play quiet jazz. It's perfect for a date night or a romantic night out. When we first arrived, we were asked if we had a reservation (we did not) but the hostess was able to move stuff around to seat us immediately. They seemed a bit understaffed because service was initially slow but the lady who sat us down ended up taking care of us and was so sweet. I ordered the roast chicken and because of my stupid diet, asked to sub the side with a kale salad, which they generously accommodated. When our server said it might take 20 minutes for it to come out, it came out within 10. The chicken was divine - not what I would normally order but I'm glad I did. The salad was simple but a great complement to the chicken. Expect any plate here to set you back $15-20. They have a great happy hour until 8pm, which includes $6 house beer and wine. If I were drinking at the time, I probably would have gotten a cocktail, the menu looked large. All in all, a solid experience. I'd like to come back and try the burger and a cocktail... stupid diet. read more

We sat outside in the back yard, enjoying a terrifically sunny day. It was one of those rare perfect New York Spring Summer afternoons, not too hot, not too cool. The mosquitos were all still in bed, saving energy for their 'reign of terror', due to start in a month or so's time. We supped on chilled rose whilst trying to secure the wobbly table and avoiding a persistent drip from above (it was some kind of drainage issue or a very localised rain shower). Feeling a might peckish our table of five ordered a selection of boards and a plethora of oysters. My consternation and surprise return to Yelp (aren't you happy I'm back?) was motivated by what lay beneath the cheese, olives and deviled eggs. The board on which the food was served was centrally coated in what appeared to be BLACK MOULD! We discussed this as a party but were too meek and shy to bring it up with the waiting staff (who forgot an order of drinks at some point in the afternoon). Was it mould? Could the wood be burnt? But why would it be burnt? There's no pizza on the menu or reason to place it on a stove or in an oven. Oh no, it must be mould?! I did the only reasonable thing to do to get to the bottom of this mystery, I posted it on my instagram stories. Let the people decide if it's mould or not! Of course no-one really knows for sure, but the general consensus leans somewhat to the mould side of things. I would like to point out that the boards were black on both sides, all the boards we encountered had the same ugly patches of suspected mould and that it's not a good sign for a restaurant that you're even having to question dubious hygiene standards. Also the non-black bits of the boards were dirty. The boards had splits in too, which surely is a preferred hiding spot for bacteria, e-coli and associated gunk. If the black stuff was not mould I would give this place 3 stars - totally generic ye-olde-Brooklyn spot, that you will probably enjoy enough for an evening but never need to go back to. There was no live music whilst we were there it should be noted. If the black stuff was mould (what else might it be?!) then it's 1 star and an ill feeling in my stomach this morning. read more

*Had an outdoor garden reservation and they showed us to a table in the basement. They did not check for vaccination status before trying to seat us inside.* They said it was too cold for outdoor dining, although the garden reservation was confirmed.

I was absolutely excited to try this place because I'm in the neighborhood. However, we waited 45 minutes for our food and we noticed the neighboring tables that came after us got their food. Perhaps, they forgot to put in the order. I flagged our waitress, and she said they are plating our food right now. She comes back with complimentary stale bread and olives as we waited, which we did not consume. 20 minutes go by, we still did not get our food. Clearly, they were not plating it. I wish the waitress would have been honest with us because waiting over a hour is ridiculous. We left the premise after wasting more than 1 hour. I also see pockets of bad reviews on here, maybe it just depends on the day and the staff you get. read more

I'm glad that this jazz establishment is still around during COVID-19, but the food is well below average at best. When we ordered the dozen of raw oysters, they were insanely small size in meat. Yes, I know what blue point oysters should look like. I would recommend the mussels instead, and we paid full price, not happy hour price. I complained to the waitress, and she said that this is how they are. The cocktails are expensive and cute, nice coupe glasses that fills to about 3-4 ounces in liquid for $16. I would do a hard pass. The best thing was the live jazz band, called Baby Soda. If you want really good raw oysters, I would go to Maison Premiere and/or Mermaid Inn. Otherwise, I'd get the Mazie Burger and a beer. Maybe grab a bottle of wine for two. Otherwise, their food sucks. read more

St. Mazie reminds me of a bar that would exist somewhere in New Orleans, minus the hipstery vibe. They have a good semblance of what makes the nightlife world go 'round: solid cocktails, even better food, and decent array of live entertainment in the form of jazz. This is certainly a Brooklyn gem. The way I envision a good night here is to come with friends for a casual dinner or a light bite. Finish it off with a round of expertly made cocktails. Gaze and admire the fun and extremely well tailored decor and embrace the evening through the music on stage. Either that or take advantage of the good weather and enjoy their backyard during their lively brunch hour. They make a mean poached egg over avocado toast. There is also a chicken burger with some super tasty potato wedges that have made me an immediate fan. Going early may be key for quality seating. During the hotter months, ventilation can be a bit of a challenge. The bathrooms are a tight squeeze and it gets harder when the bar is packed with people. While I appreciate the good service, sometimes I feel the bar is understaffed and the wait for a good drink is inevitable. The music almost trumps all. The lineup they have night in and out (there is a schedule as well!) really could jazz up a crowd on the right night. Weekends are understandably busy, but I would recommend this place on any night of the week. read more
