Mominette

Food: - French Onion Soup - Good flavor profile - Escargot - Good flavor - Mominette Burger - Good, average burger, nothing special. - Coq Au Vin - Good - Duck Breast - Good (skin crispy!, yet they could have render the fat a bit more to my tasting). Service: The service is perfect for me. The servers will leave you alone and will come to you upon request. It's not your typical American restaurant that its about turning tables. Here you will get to chill and spend time with your love ones and friends without feeling being monitored. Ambiance: It's your Brooklyn restaurant standard, nothing grand (but the food is special), it is quaint and the loudness level is low which you can actually hear conversations with your group.

My friend recommended that I stop in. I met the bartender on duty the previous week. I just had the dollar oysters, so I got myself a dozen for their weekday happy hour. They use ice pellets, which is not my favourite, but the oysters were delicious. Really basic bistro menu, (which is good, nothing pretentious), and I have yet to enjoy a proper meal. Looking forward to the lamb. The rusted front door squeaked loudly, so I went to my car to get some lubricant/rust protectant, and by the time I left, it stopped squeaking. A few very attractive customers had already come in by late afternoon/early evening on a Tuesday. I think they went to the backyard. Staff is very friendly. I'll definitely be back with more to report.
