Description

Chef Neil has been serving Brooklyn since 1993, anchoring this corner of the Columbia Street Waterfront District with a straightforward focus on fresh fish. The menu features classic preparations like mustard-crusted salmon, diver sea scallops, and roasted sea bass, all accompanied by buttery roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes. Unlike many nearby weekend spots, it remains largely free of two-hour wait times. The owner often greets guests at the door, and the relaxed setup encourages diners to grab a bottle across the street to match their meal.
