What a wonderful and beautiful restaurant. The drinks are made with love by the mixologist, and the chef preps the food with passion and decor. Our servicer, Jonny, was super nice and made great suggestions. The staff makes this spot a gem. My return will be soon. Xoxo

Beautiful option in Williamsburg. Modern American restaurant, great brunch options on the weekend. The service was fast, kind and overall great. Food was really tasty, all of it. We also got the French toast. Mimosas were really nice too. I would definitely go back again. I highly recommend it.

Every course was 10/10. We were really blown away. The food is served in a relaxed environment, the staff are chill and fantastic and each dish was brilliant and fresh Even the coffee was really good and I find that’s rare in restaurants.

2nd time visiting and we ordered the same mains as the first time. Both special birthday dinners. Artichokes were good, burrata salad was very good. The duck and wagyu beef were beautifully cooked and delicious. I found the sweet potato mash with the duck a bit overwhelmingly sweet and it threw off the balance of the dish a bit. Good service.

We went to Meadowsweet for an event to try some of their tasty dishes. The inside was very open and bright, with a fully stocked bar. We tried Zero Proof drinks, Phony Negroni, and Al’s Classic N/A Golden. They were both pretty good, but especially the Phony Negroni was really good! The first dish we tried was Crispy Baby Artichokes, which was delightful. I haven’t really been a big fan of artichokes, but I will happily have this dish again and again! Then, Tagliatelle with chanterelle, truffle, and parmesan. Pasta was cooked just right, with an amazing truffle aroma and flavor. Next was Spanish Octopus that was cooked perfectly, with a note of smoky flavor. It had a nice kick from harissa without being too spicy. The last savory dish was Spiced Duck Breast. Tender and juicy, not too chewy, but the perfect texture. Crust of the duck was maybe my favorite bit. Delicious! Dessert was Flourless Chocolate Cake. It had the perfect gooey center, which was the best! So chocolatey without being overwhelming. We had such amazing time here. Everything we had was freakin’ amazing! We will definitely go back for more delicious food in a near future.

It’s been a few years since they earned their Michelin star but it’s still deserving We had a 6:30 reservation. Immediately seated. Offered cost check. Asked if we could get out by 7:45. For the first time ever, we made it out on time and never felt rushed. Food was delish. Those rolls, yum. Really enjoyed the gnochetti app. Service was impeccable. It wasn’t too loud despite being full. Earns my appreciation & recommendation.

Had Meadowsweet on my list of restaurants to try for a while after hearing good things. What a great dining experience. The food first and foremost was exceptional. Every dish was very good. Our favorite were the duck breast and octopus & chorizo. The only food complaints was that on the salmon we ordered we would’ve like a little more of the coconut curry with it but still a great dish with a lot of flavor. I’m not a big sweets individual but the apple crumble was solid. Highly recommend this restaurant. Karly our server was also great and welcoming. I will definitely come back again.

I had to bring myself in here and see what those stars were all about!!! I HAD TO SEE FOR MYSELF!!! I was not let down. Jesus. the food was so good. Fortunately I (unknowingly) stumbled in during the tail end of restaurant week. They offered a 45 3-course pre fixe that was 100% worth every single penny. I started with a deliciously refreshing Empress cocktail that carried me through the entire meal. We started with the chorizo, potato & fontina empanadas and the fried green tomatoes. That's when I knew.. 700 out of 10. How they managed to pack so much flavor into the food should be studied in a lab. It was so good. If that had been the end of the meal I would not have been upset. But I did need to continue. For entrees we had the duck pastrami hash & poached eggs and avocado toast & heirloom tomato. This is when I started to get really impressed. The portions were very large, it was not this dainty overpriced haute cuisine experience. I was full by the time I finished the main dish. The duck was flavorful, not the best duck I've had in my life (I reserve that for Sun Wah in Chicago), but very good. The hash was well seasoned, and the salad was not a supporting character. The salad stood on its own two feet. I'd happily order the salad as a standalone plate 100%. To finish we had some sorbet, I believe one was passionfruit, and the other I cannot remember what it was. They were both 10 out of 10. The space is very cute, very unpretentious and casual. Our waitress Gabriela was very sweet and accomodating of our allergies/dietary restrictions. I'll be back!
