What a cool place! I had brunch here with some friends one Sunday morning and had never been inside the building. Everything inside The Osprey was luxurious. I was warmly greeted by the host and sat at the bar while waiting for the rest of my party to arrive. We dined outside, which was lovely (first come, first serve basis) and I enjoyed the East Coast Oysters with glasses of the Spicy Mango Margarita. The oysters were juicy and my drinks were refreshing and delicious. Our waiter was fun and hospitable and we had a wonderful time dining here. For brunch, The Osprey is on the pricier side but the value was absolutely there in the ambiance, service and dining. Would love to return for a lunch sometime and highly recommend to anyone visiting DUMBO. read more

The Osprey - East Coast Oysters, Spicy Mango Margarita - Australian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

-First Impression- Hmmm how do I describe it? Modern rustic perhaps? And the outdoor dining area is beautiful -Food- We weren't blown away by our food, but no complaints. -Service- Dawn was such a sweetheart! She made us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend, fantastic host! -Price- Standard NYC brunch pricing. We had a big night before coming here so we didn't do drinks, the bill was reasonable. -Did Not Like- The chef came out and spoke to patrons at multiple tables. Not sure how he picked which tables to stop at, but he skipped ours. -Noteworthy- This was at the height of the lantern fly invasion so they were kind of everywhere, but hey, we were outside. Can't do anything about that! -Recommended?- I would dine here again read more

This place was absolutely gorgeous and I had high hopes as it came recommended by a mutual friend because they had an unlimited wine special. I am so sad to say that the experience did not live up to my expectations. We arrived around 4:30 and were told that the restaurant didn't open until 5pm, but we were welcome to hang out at the bar, which was open for happy hour drinks and light bites. We asked about the wine special and were told that it was exclusively for hotel guests, which was odd because our friend has had it before and has never stayed at the hotel. Well okay... We made a reservation for 5pm and headed to the bar. A server brought us water, but no menus. We sat for a while, talking and catching up, and after quite some time with no menus, my partner got up to get them for us. The staff said that only one menu was available, so the group shared it. We peruse the menus for a while, the time creeps closer to 5... Around 4:50 a server comes to take our order. We let him know that our reservation was coming up shortly, so we'd just wait and order once we got to our table. That way, we didn't have to worry about carrying over wine glasses, water glasses, unfinished appetizers etc. For some reason, he seemed unsure about whether we'd still be able to order items from the happy hour menu once we were seated at our table... (Why would all the rules change just by moving a few feet away??) We went back to the hostess and she confirmed that we could still order HH from our table. The time inched past 5pm and we still hadn't been seated. We asked another server about our table and she seemed confused. Once we got to our table, the rules changed again. Our server was super cool though! We were able to order Happy Hour drinks, and oysters, but were told that we couldn't order the Bar Bites (snacks) because we weren't at the bar...plz Anyway. We did 2 baskets of fries, a cocktail each, and a dozen oysters. The oysters were NOT very fresh. Of the 4 I had, 2 were edible, 1 was a little fishy, and the last one I attempted to eat was flat out SPOILED. It was so vile I had to spit it out. Ultimately, we left and had dinner elsewhere. All of the rules and staff's uncertainty surrounding them honestly annoyed me. read more

It was alright. (+) Located inside a 5 star hotel. The hotel lobby was especially nice with plenty of seating and a pleasant smell (+) The food was alright, the grilled broccolini was my favorite. The chicken was delicious. Other than that, nothing really stood out. (-) The bathroom was located downstairs in the basement, outside the hotel. If you have children, it can be quite annoying. (-) Bringing a cake will cost you $45 to serve. (-) We were seated near their kitchen, the seats weren't very comfortable. The wooden chairs and long tables made me feel like I was at a picnic. read more

The Osprey is a lovely venue for dinner! I came with a large group (with reservation) and had a family style dinner with a pre-fixed menu. To start, the Osprey is part of a hotel, which is really beautifully decorated with a special ambience. The lights in the restaurant are very cute and the hotel/restaurant has real plants hanging from the ceiling and walls. There's also a lilac-y perfume smell to the hotel and restaurant, which I really enjoyed (though may not be good for those overly sensitive to scents). Their main dining room also has a lovely waterfront view of Manhattan. The music was a bit too loud, though, to have a conversation with someone comfortably across the table. In terms of the family-style dishes, I was able to try: Focaccia 5/5: this is made fresh in their kitchens! And it's made special for each day depending on what they want to flavor and adorn it with. Halibut 2/5: I didn't love the halibut itself (a bit flakey, dry, somewhat flavorless) but the crispy potatoes were layered and awesome. Pumpkin lasagnetti 4/5: The noodles were very thin and chewy and flavorful. I normally don't order pumpkin dishes, but I thought this was great! Mushroom polenta 5/5: I never enjoyed polenta but had the chance to try it here because it was family style. I was really impressed!! It was incredibly flavorful and not grainy like the way I've had it at other places. The best (surprising part) was the generous portions of mushroom in the polenta, which was so flavorful and succulent. The service was a bit slow, but understandable given the large group to se Overall, I thought the food and ambience at the Osprey were superb. I would come again for a special occasion! read more

The Osprey is a great brunch spot located inside the One Hotel in Brooklyn. I came here on Sunday for brunch and had a wonderful experience! We decided to sit inside because it was going to be a little bit chilly, but there is also outdoor seating available. Our server Chris was so nice and did an amazing job and making recommendations. I had a chai latte to drink and my friend had a smoothie. Both were super tasty and made well. To eat I had the butterfly pea chia pudding, which was extremely refreshing and delicious! Probably the best chia pudding I've ever had. I also ordered a side the wagyu bacon, which was absolutely amazing. Definitely my first time trying wagyu bacon, and I'd suggest everyone to try it! My friend had the Osprey breakfast, which was a pretty big portion size. It came with eggs, your way, toast, and your choice of protein. They had avocado as a protein choice, for those who don't eat meat, which I thought was nice. I will definitely be coming back here again, especially since this is located near the heart of downtown Brooklyn and DUMBO. read more

We visited for our wedding anniversary and they are one of the few places we visited that day that made the occasion special. They had oysters and champagne on the happy hour menu and their Fries are worth the trip. The service was top tier, the staff was friendly and the perfect amount of personal. The vibe is dignified, elegant but still relaxed. It's a plant lovers paradise and blends with the bite it's in. Scallops cooked to perfection. read more

The restaurant is located inside of the 1 Hotel and is beautiful. The service was fast and the staff was very attentive as well as extremely helpful. Hubby and I was making this our 1st stop of many for the evening so we had a few drinks and ordered an appetizer. The appetizer was delicious and the drinks were strong. After we ate and had drinks, we decided to go to the rooftop lounge/bar and have more drinks while enjoying the views. Perfect view of the city. We definitely plan on returning. read more

This place had some cool vibes, loved the decor and as soon as you walk inside they have amazing views out the windows. There's seating outside as well. We made a reservation & they are strongly encouraged to get you a seat. There is a hotel above so most come here to enjoy a nice breakfast or dinner. The service was great. The food was good but nothing that wowed me honestly.. we shared The Osprey Breakfast & Aussie Banana bread. The bacon was Extra Extra Crispy and a bit cold. The eggs were good and the potatoes were pretty good. The Aussie bread was pretty delicious with the Coffee. The place is a bit upscale as far as food and I get it but maybe their dinner selection is a bit better. read more

Tried this place for breakfast- and I enjoyed it very much. It is located inside of the hotel, has a very cute decor. I ordered falafel breakfast bowl - it is a vegan dish which pleasantly surprised me with a flavor, falafel was perfectly cooked, and hummus that was served with it was super delicious. My cousin ordered avocado toast with a poached egg, which she also loved. Our server was very pleasant. read more

Near Old Fulton Street, within Brooklyn Bridge Park, is the 1 Hotel, and the Osprey is a restaurant on the first floor. A lovely space, it includes an outdoor patio nestled within the park. Absolutely a wonderful place to enjoy brunch on a nice weekend, as we did. We ordered bellinis, lemon ricotta pancakes and the Osprey breakfast (two cage-free eggs, garlic fingerling potatoes, roasted tomato, multigrain toast, and I chose chicken apple sausage as my side). Service was quick and friendly, and the food delicious. Best of all, you're outside within the confines of a great park in Brooklyn Heights! After brunch, stroll in the park an enjoy the great views of NY harbor, the Statue of Liberty, and the NYC skyline. A fun and tasty way to start your Sunday morning! read more

It's our first time there, and it's for my husband's surprise birthday dinner. I picked the place based on reviews and the location. The Osprey didn't disappoint! It's nice working w/ the event coordinator Tiffany. She was friendly and efficient. She relayed our discussion including dietary restrictions to the service staff so they were accommodating and had no surprises. Everyone loved Everything I picked out from the prix fixe menu. We highly recommend hen of woods, fresh oysters, honeynut cavatelli, and bison strip, and crispy Brussels sprouts. Besides the very delicious food, the service was excellent, and the ambiance was amazing! We shall return in the summer! P.S. You may want to reserve LAZ parking by the hotel in advance. read more

When we entered we were told that bar was first come first serve. No one mentioned that we had to go to a specific section of the bar to order for the bartender to tell us that the entire restaurant only takes cash or room charge. We ordered some drinks and after seeing him accept card payments I asked him why he said only cash. He didn't say anything and just took my card. We then got sat on our table and the service was horrible. The waitress CHARLEY visited the table a total of 3 times. 1 for drink order 2 for food order and 3 for the bill drop off. Didn't visit to check on us at all. THE ONLY REASON THIS HAS 3 STARS IS BECAUSE OF THE FOOD! IT WAS DELICIOUS AND SEASONED PERFECTLY! The food is amazing here but the service is horrible! read more

We had a lovely birthday dinner here. The ambiance and setting is tucked behind the hotel and we were seated outside. We orders two entrees: one Hudson Valley trout dish which was PHENOMENAL and one framer's salad with salmon which was okay. Our server was attentive and friendly and even gave us a birthday treat to celebrate my sister's birthday. I would recommend booking a Resy in advance to avoid waiting and to opt for a fish dish or oysters as that's what they are known for. Ambiance - 4/5 Food - 4/5 Service - 5/5 read more

The Osprey - Fresh Oysters - Australian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Amazing pork chop and great Brussel sprouts, but everything else was meh. If you dine early, you can catch the 5-7pm happy hour ($2 oysters and $10 select glasses of wine - the Pinot Grigio was good but didn't love the rose or the red blend). The pork chop was the best. Very juicy and delicious sides of oyster mushroom and corn. The crispy Brussel sprouts were also good - I liked the slivered almonds and peppers it came with. The oysters with watermelon foam were alright but small, nothing special and probably would've been better without the foam. The steelhead trout was pretty disappointing. $42 and I was only able to eat half of it. It was over cooked, flavorless, and the sad side piece of squash was similarly flavorless. I was so disappointed, esp since the waiter recommended it. The hen of the woods was also disappointing. I usually love these mushrooms but they were sticky from a gross sauce, which made it a little off putting. The ambiance was decent. Quiet and located inside the 1 Hotel. There was plenty of open seating (on a Friday night at 6:30pm) and lots of greenery, which makes you feel like you are in the Hudson / upstate NY. Sadly, given the mediocre food and high prices, don't think I will return. read more

Really good spot in Brooklyn. It's inside the One Hotel and has a killer atmosphere. My waiter was a little lost but the host was super nice and friendly and the other waitress was really nice. Foos was solid! Nightlight was the mushroom and artichoke soup. Really flavorful and warmed the soul. Had the Poached Halibut with a side of Brussel sprouts as the main. Sprouts were outstanding and the halibut was really good. The rock shrimp, crispy purple rice, asparagus, with miso hollandaise was a nice touch. Finished with the Pavlova, which was really nice. Recommend this spot for a high-end dinner outside Manhattan. read more

Came here for my birthday dinner. The service was good, but extremely slow - it took almost half an hour for our food to arrive. The ambiance was extremely nice - very zen and industrial with a lot of greenery that made us feel far away from the bustle of the city. The oysters were extremely small, but fresh. The sea bass wrapped in banana leaf was overcooked and not something I would order again, but the scallops were amazing. They were huge, more than double the size of regular scallops - and came with an amazing blue sauce that paired percectly with every dish we had. In fact, I was soaking the vegetables and sea bass in the blue sauce because it was so good. read more

The restaurant is in a great location with a nice city view. Reservations were pretty easy to make. I had wanted to get brunch here for a while but never had the chance then Pandemic hit etc. They have a valet service, parking in that area is pretty hard so we ended up just going with valet. We sat in the outdoor section of the restaurant and you are partially hidden from the pedestrians walking along the park nearby. They did not have 2 of the signature drinks listed on the menu that I had wanted. I then went off menu, since my preferences on the menu weren't available, by asking for Chocolate Martini but I guess they could not make that as per waitress. She did not give a reason. I can not recall the drink I ended up going with Strawberry Negroni? Not my first choice obviously but it was okay. My Friend and I ordered the Bison Burger w/Fries. But we started with the Baby Gem Salad. We both really enjoyed this. I would recommend. The burgers themselves were on par with what I want in my burger. Fries were good. We then basically ordered Coke because it felt like you should be drinking a Coke (not a Negroni) while eating Burger and Fries. My only thing about the Menu was it was a bit short and I feel defaulted to the Burger. They do have 1 food item per diet preference (Meat, Chicken, Fish, Non-Meat etc). Nothing was jumping out at me via the descriptors. It's still a nice place to go for the view and maybe a drink (assuming they are currently serving your Signature cocktail of choice. read more

Let's start with a disclaimer: This review is based off the preset Valentines Day Dinner menu & the overall experience including the 1Hotel. Finding parking was atrocious (I mean...it was Valentine's Day, I get it) & although they had a parking lot next to the restaurant, it was full, which the parking attendant literally yelled out as we attempted to drive in. When we frantically drove around to find another lot further away, I guess it was connected and most likely the same guy who initially screamed FULL"! saw us pull up again. He then "shoo'ed" us away with his hand in a dismissive manner 3x (without even saying anything) as he was talking to a driver in another car. It was so freaking RUDE I was incredibly annoyed. Who the hell shoo's away two adults just trying to f***ing park a car? I get that it's busy but relax, you're not god here. Ok, glad I got that out of my system. AnyHOO- the 1hotel itself is absolutely stunning & smelled amazing... I couldn't get enough of it! (Even the unisex bathroom downstairs was so tastefully done.) The Osprey was gently nestled around the back with a welcoming host. There was eventually some soothing live music to set the mood which was a nice bonus. The food was kind of disappointing. I was already torn when I initially read the reviews on Yelp but because the atmosphere seemed so elegant & romantic, I took the risk. At least I can say I gave it a try! We had the "baked potato" with caviar & I wish I had 10 one of those. The lobster bisque felt a bit watered down but it still had good flavor. Lamb ribs had a weird taste I couldn't quite put my finger on but neither myself or my bf liked it. Hamachi tartare was simple but good- I liked the contrast with the rice crackers. Arroz bomba was salty AF & my bf agreed but ate the whole thing anyway because he's the man. (Haha) I had the Long Island duck - great presentation but sauce was too sweet & the piece of duck was cut too thick plus the taste seemed as off as the lamb ribs. Lastly, chocolate fondant was a bit heavy but good- I'm glad it was á la mode. Macaroons were, well....macaroons lol- nothing special but a cute little heart-shaped something for V-day. Jesus, this review is like an essay. Wine wise we decided to skip a bottle but I tried "Pessimist" and it was horrid. It had such a bad after taste I actually grimaced - I couldn't even finish the sample. I don't think I've ever hated a wine that much in a restaurant. I settled on a Cabernet which was passable. I'm no wine connoisseur but I do enjoy wine very much & it was an overall no. I was thankful to our server who was very kind & patient with me during this tasting process. I also forced him to take pictures of us - poor guy. Ok, I know my review seems like this place is horrible BUT I would still recommend going! (Call me crazy) This was a specific menu & we didn't have much of a choice considering it was preset. Also, the hotel is so beautiful it's worth it. We attempted to visit the rooftop bar for a drink but there was no seating at the bar & a section was closed off for an event of sorts. We went to the actual rooftop and although the second bar was closed it was a wonderful view of the Brooklyn bridge. You know I did it for the gram...whilst ignoring my bfs eye-rolls. In conclusion (yes, finally an end to this madness) I would come back for a burger & a cocktail or even brunch- hell, I might just book a room & stay a night! read more

My wife and i both attended breakfast and dinner at the Osprey here in Brooklyn. Very beautiful location and the service was 5 star. For breakfast I had Baked in Brooklyn French Toast, it was amazing. My wife had Osprey Breakfast witch looked unreal. For dinner we both decided to go with the Brooklyn Bison Burger. Awesome choice if you're in the mood for a burger that won't sit to heavy in your stomach. Appetizers we had Crispy Brussels Sprouts and Mushroom Frittata. Let's just say you have to try both of these for yourself because they have loads of flavor & I wouldn't even be able to express witch one I liked more as both were very good.

I was in NYC for UFC281 and wanted to catch up with some girlfriends while I was in town. With a limited schedule, I looked for places that specifically took reservations (in addition to ambiance, food, service, of course). However, it seems like it's pretty easy to get a walk-in or a last-minute reservation, even for a big group. Just in case, I booked a table directly via their website (https://www.sevenrooms.com/reservations/theosprey) for Saturday, November 12, 2022. Anyway - one of my girlfriends wanted to meet in the Brooklyn Heights/DUMBO area. Thanks to Yelp, I stumbled upon The Osprey! The Osprey is located at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, a waterfront hotel, just a few steps away from the East River and the Brooklyn Bridge. Yes, it's boujee :) What I love most about The Osprey is the ambiance. It's stunning! The place is adorned with lush greenery and wall-to-wall glass doors which creates a magical indoor-outdoor dining experience. There's no other restaurant in the city like The Osprey! It's the perfect place for going solo, date night, family and friend outings, special events and business gatherings. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a friendly, warm and professional hostess who escorted us to our table. There's a spacious bar, perfect for enjoying a refreshing cocktail. We ordered Bloody Mary's and browsed their "farm to table"-esque menu which highlights local seasonal ingredients with a unique, creative flair. Another reason why I chose The Osprey is because they offer "gluten free options - one of my girlfriends is gluten sensitive so I wanted to make sure she could enjoy some options. They offer appetizing to suit every taste, style, and dietary preference which is unheard of! We ordered off their "Brunch Menu." My girlfriends both ordered the Ube pancakes and an order of sausages while I opted for the Eggs Benny. They even brought out an order of their popular Crispy Brussel Sprouts (miso, scallions, almonds, pickled pepper) for us to try. Every thing was super flavorful and the service was top notch. Yes, be forewarned, it is a little pricey, but honestly - the ambiance, world class service and delicious & fresh dishes and fancy cocktails are worth it. Afterwards, I highly recommend the short walk towards the Brooklyn Bridge Park. read more

We pass this restaurant often on our daily walks through the park. Its lush patio always intrigued me and it's here that I dragged my bf here for his birthday, recently. He requested close and casual so it fit his bill. It was our first dinner out in nyc since lockdown (and likely our only meal out about town this year). I do like that the hotel and restaurant take covid precautions seriously. The host greeted us at the front, took our temperatures and then let us check in at the reception area. They explained that there was a 3 step disinfecting process for tables. Once we were led to our table, (about 15 mins after our reservation) we were told to view menus by scanning QR codes- so no paper menus to touch. The tables were nicely spaced out. And of course, the setting is very pretty, a nice patio, with string lights and far away from car exhaust, pedestrians, runners and bicycles. if you're neurotic/paranoid/anxious- this restaurant is an excellent choice. As for the rest of our experience - i would say it was good to adequate. Our server was pleasant but he struggled to keep up with the tables. I'll spare the details. I know everyone is trying their hardest and these are trying times. Our pineapple jalapeno cocktails were excellent (best part of the meal) and the food (tuna tartare, burger, jerk chicken) was average to just above average. Portions were generous, prices on the higher end. Gratuity of 18pct (more than fair) will be included in your bill. Rating: 3.5 rounded up to 4. read more

Server Mitch was very kind and helpful with a menu that does indeed raise questions but oh the answers are glorious.

Beautiful views, amazing produce in NYC... order multiple cocktails at once. I browsed on Yelp for the best restaurants around me and was pleased to find the Osprey, conveniently located with valet parking at the 1Hotel in Brooklyn. I had previously visited the rooftop, which is excellent in any season. When walking in, our party of four (with a reservation) was immediately seated in the lovely, plant-filled back interior area by the open kitchen. The drink menu had a large variety of sustainable choice (SC) and zero-carbon cocktails. All appetizers were fresh except for the bread, which couldn't be saved from its Sahara-like texture even with gobs of butter. I ordered the Heirloom Tomato salad with chicken, which was excellent, juicy, and crispy. An ideal mix of textures. Overall, the menu was very farm-to-table and the decor charmingly rustic. As it closes the kitchen at 11 pm on Fridays, I'd recommend a 9:30 pm reservation. I'd probably order two drinks at once in retrospect since--although the restaurant wasn't packed--drink service was relatively slow. Furthermore, don't forget to visit the 11th floor for some of the best views of Manhattan! read more

First impression: The restaurant was in a nice hotel lobby off the water. I wished there was a sign directing me to the restaurant. Maybe there was and I missed it. I did have to ask the hotel front desk for direction. The restaurant had the view of the city which I loved. The decor was not over the top but simple and elegant. I felt very comfortable. The staff was courteous and attentive. If eating vegan, gluten-free and sustainable food are your thing then this is the place for you. Everything we ordered was perfect except the mushrooms. I found it to be a little too salty for my taste. We love the happy hour oysters. read more

Very beautiful restaurant in Brooklyn. Gorgeous interior, hard to find though as I walked by it a couple times not knowing it was inside the 1 hotel. Service is a little slow- we were there for almost two hours and our waiter never came to check on us besides when we ordered our food and when we got the check- which is why I docked a star. The food is phenomenal- highly recommend the Brooklyn bison burger or the ube mochi pancakes. Both had huge portions and can be easily split between two people if you're not that hungry. It is a pricy restaurant, so beware. If you're in Brooklyn or staying at the 1 hotel- I would definitely recommend coming by! read more

This restaurant is on the ground floor inside the 1 Hotel in Brooklyn. It was a bit difficult to find -- I had to enter the hotel and then walk around, and asked people at the front desk to help direct me to the restaurant. It was busy, but my friends and I had a reservation so we were seated on arrival. However, once we were seated, it took a long time to get a menu. Service was quite slow throughout the dining experience. The food, however, was delicious! The drink was okay, but I thought it was overpriced. The ambience here is lovely though.

The entrees were overall not good. Between the over seasoned chimichurri on the bison, the cream-filled cabonara soup, and the raw zucchinis that came with the trout- i was very unimpressed. However, the pork chop was very good! The brussels delicious, and maitakes were very very good. read more
