Crudo - Brooklyn

Eating, wein and service were really great good! the atmosphere: blue light (no movement,) inside, the loud music and reflective sound were absolutely not our cup tee. pretty hard to communicate.

This place is a wonderful new addition to the neighboring, and heads and shoulders over any other option at this end of the 5th avenue. the Mediterranean menu is freshly prepared from excellent ingredients, with sufficient complexity to keep the dinge interesting without being in the least fussiness. presentations are good, but the focus is on eating, not only on visual aesthetics. I liked everything I tried. at this opportunity my friends and I have added the muddles – tasty in themselves, with only the right amount of gigante beans, feta and touches of sausage. the Fattoush salad was another winner. (I hope they bring the salat back with “Park Slope” in his humorous names. the ceviche, boquerones and, of course, the oysters got daumen from everyone. in other places I had the oktopus, the breanzino and the merluza – all excellent. service is very good, and the mood ranges from friendly to . . very friendly. good wine list too. if I worked here, I would also welcome everyone with the confidence that comes from the front of a large kitchen.

Excellent and creative eating $1 oysters were a plus! and service was great. they even brought a dessert for my daughter after I mentioned that it was her birthday:

This was our first visit to Bar Crudo. We were in NYC for our daughter's birthday and the restaurant was a short walk away from her place. We were seated upon arrival and all the tables were full. Our server, Mike M, greeted us after a few minutes. We ordered glasses of wine and they came pretty quickly. Tried a Sauvignon Blanc from Ecuador, and it was pretty good. We shared a couple of appetizers. We were seated just as Happy Hour was ending but they let us have Happy Hour prices, which included $1.00 oysters. We ordered a dozen and they were fresh, briny and delicious. We also shared an order of Arepas, which were good too. For dinner our daughter had grilled octopus. She loved it and so did I. It had great flavor and was cooked perfectly. My wife had the tile fish. It also was cooked perfectly. I had the Fideua, which was chock full of mussels, clams and salmon. Awesome. We also shared a side of spinach Catalan, which was enough for 4 people. Overall a very good experience!

The food was amazing!!! The oysters were outstanding. Great place for date night.
