Never a bad word to say. They changed loactions but I made sure to find them. The staff’s customer service is comparable to going to a friend’s home for a special occasion dinner. The atmosphere is cozy, just the right temperature, beautiful colors and artwork, with music from an array of genres that somehow seem to flow flawlessly. Then there’s the food. My taste buds haven’t been disappointed in the least. Every dish is flavorful, never salty, arranged beautifully and slight substitutions are never an issue, like swapping a boiled egg for a sunny side up one. Of course you can wash it down with one of their wonderful beverages, from sparkling water to strawberry margaritas and their specialty drinks. Great price point as well and family friendly. Tell’em I sent ya and enjoy
The service is great, the flavors are amazing.
I have been coming to Chez Oscar for a while now, and the food never disappoints. Their croque madame and lamb burger are some of my favorites on the menu. If you have to chose, I’d suggest going there for brunch. The service is good overall, but can take a little bit. Definitely recommend this place.
I’ve been going to Chez Oskar for years, and it’s one of my favorite restaurants in Bedstuy. Their Croque Madame and Croque Monsieur are to die for. I also think if you go, you should try their cheese boards. With the pandemic, the fabulous ballroom is closed, but the open indoor area still feels very cozy. I also suggest you try their lamb burgers if you are a meat type of person. The only thing I’ll say on the downside is that I personally prefer their brunch menu to their diner menu.
The outdoor stoves are amazing, Warm February outdoor dining. Loved the Lamb burger.
This place is always packed and there is a reason for that. The food is amazing and the staff is great.You really can’t go wrong with any of the options, however my favorites are the lamb or beef burgers, fish and chips, or the mussels.
Been meaning to try Chez Oskar for a while and finally got around to it. Overall I loved it, but would use this experience to curate what I order in future since there were three of us and we had 3 courses it was a good opportunity to test what’s worth getting.Drinks: We tried the noisette martini, walnut negroni, and pear 75. All were pretty good. The nut sprinkles on the noisette were a cute touch but annoying to consume, too chunky and meant you have to chew the drink. Nut shavings or grounds would be better.Starters: Chicken liver mousse was tasty af. Ratio of mousse to bread to cornichons was off. You need a piece of cornichon in every bite to cut through the richness of the mousse, and easily an extra slice of bread. Escargots and bone marrow was near-faultless. Onion soup was good but the cheese was a bit overpowering. Not a usual French onion but still good.Entrees: Risotto of the day was rainbow trout with saffron and Dijon. So unusual and delicious. Perfectly cooked. Steak frites was banging. Juicy (get it medium rare I beg you) and flavorful steak, frites were not the crispiest but more fluffy. Could have had more frite and less side salad if anything.Dessert: key lime pie was good, not great. Got it with the limoncello which was objectively the worst thing that landed on our table and came 5 mins after we finished the desserts. Creme brûlée would be better off with regular vanilla bean. A good crème brûlée doesn’t need orange and saffron. Flourless choc cake was very good, comes with a few strawberry slices and vanilla ice cream. Perfect.Service was very French (aka a bit slow and very hands off). We got our starters before any water or drinks and had to ask again for them. If you’re looking for American style overbearing service, don’t expect that here. It wasn’t super busy but I did only see two staff the entire time so I wonder if they were short. If that’s the case they did a decent job of managing it.Knocked off a star for the limoncello, lacklustre crème brûlée and key lime pie, and slightly impaired service. Would definitely go again because the rest was so tasty!
I've walked by this place so many times and finally had the pleasure of taking my wife here for a mid-day brunch. It was during the height of the pandemic on a nice, beautiful day in Brooklyn. We had a blast, and I will say that I will be returning to this location once again with my wife and this time with our daughter's as well. The food is amazing, and they serve fruit with most of their dishes. The drinks are outstanding you won't be disappointed with your choice to eat here.
J'adore this place. It the last of the Mohicans when it comes to great restaurants in Brooklyn. RIP MADIBA & BLUE RIBBON! I have been coming here for 15 yrs. While I preferred the Dekalb location, they have done a great job with their move to Bed Stuy. Most importantly, the quality of the food has not suffered and is consistent all around. The lamb burger is my go to, especially when I'm in need of a mood boost!!! Croque Merguez is the best breakfast dish in existence... lol. Mussels and steak frites never disappoint! If you have never had this before, pair any dish with the French cider that they have! I have been hooked on it ever since! I have many memories here. It is also where I used to take clients for midday meetings.
This restaurant it's been a great spot for the past 4 years. The service is great, the flavors are amazing. The bar makes the best drinks in the area.
