The Osprey

I am big fan of weekend brunch at the osprey. Lovely for coming with friends or partners for a nice meal and walk around dumbo. I (was 😞) particularly fond of their banana french toast which was taken of the menu (and needs to make a comeback!). I also recently enjoyed their lemon pancakes. Would not have their avocado toast again. Plate sizes are huge so come in hungry!! Will be coming again

The Osprey is located in The One Hotel Brooklyn. The restaurant was top notch. The food and service were wonderful. We ordered several things and ate family style which was great so we got to try several things on the menu. I highly recommend The Osprey. We ordered raw oysters, they were fresh and sweet. The beef skewers were tender and tasty. It was served with a table top grill. The scallops were cooked to perfection and were to die for!

This is a beautiful restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge. You can't see the bridge from indoor seating, but it's very close. Our server Jake was very knowledgeable about the menu and very attentive without being intrusive. He pointed out the reverse side of the menu that showed the inspiration for the dishes. Descriptions of the dishes themselves were on the other side. I opted for the scallops. The presentation was quite original and artistic and was inspired by the Great Barrier Reef. The reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the sauce didn't add much to the flavor of the dish. I expected it to taste as good as it looked, but it was not the case. My friend had the pasta with black truffles and I think that was a better choice. The truffles were very tasty!

Decided to book an early dinner reservation for our 1st wedding anniversary here. Dawn our server was fantastic, she recommended food that we ended up enjoying. To top it off, she got us complimentary 2 glasses of bubbly 🥂 and a desert that was sooooo good. We opted for outdoor seating and it turned out great. Secluded enough with strategic planting but with plenty of river breeze. Note that they are pretty short staff so plan accordingly.

My daughter brought me to the Osprey for my birthday and we had a fantastic dinner! Laura, the manager was wonderful and Dawn, our waitress was exceptionally attentive. In fact, the whole staff were pleasant and welcoming. The food was fantastic. I had the garlic chili prawn appetizer and the scallops for my main dish and would recommend both. My only complaint is that the restrooms are a little out of the way and they are open to all sexual orientations. I found that quite uncomfortable, therefore the 4 stars for atmosphere. But, the food and service were par excellence! Kudos to the restaurant staff!

A beautiful place … love the plants and the nature vibe. Wasn’t as happy with the service from our waiter - she could have spent a little bit more time to check in with us. She didn’t make effort to impress. The food was good… potential of being better is definitely there. When some of food didn’t show on time - I spoke to higher level staff and they did take care of it… Was expecting to be impressed but there was little bit of short coming on flavors and staff. Will try again …
