What People Are Saying About Sweetwater Restaurant
The Editor

The Scene – Not much remains of the divey Sweetwater Tavern except for the name, the pressed-tin walls and elaborate tile floor--remnants from the '30s, when the space was a Polish diner. The owners of Carroll Gardens' Patois and Schnack transformed the joint into a comfortable bar and restaurant with burgundy diner booths and milky sconces, offering a late-night menu to please the block's post-concert crowd. – – The Food – Chef Tom Kearney (Blue Hill, Jean-Georges) presides over the contemporary, pared-down menu. His smoked trout, paired with capers and horseradish…

Best brunch in Williamsburg
by sfrucht02 at Citysearch
The specials are always good. Great burger. Amazing pork tenderloin. Nice cocktails, long and affordable wine list, extensive selection of beer. It's all a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Brunch is actually considerably cheaper, it seems. You'll still spend less than you would at Egg. The chef has a vision here. The only reason I don't go here more is because they only take American Express (which is like saying you don't take credit cards at all).
- Pros: Great food, good service, nice atmosphere
- Cons: Only take Amex

not returning here...

compliments to the chef, good food, especially the gnocchi and the pork chop. only complaint on the food were the portions, not very filling.
we were quickly seated and then waited almost an hour for our entrees. served one round of drinks when we first were seated and then didn't see our server again until it was time for the bill, which came quickly and was collected just as fast. the thing that bothered me was that the rest wasn't even very busy, empty tables to our right and left. service was simply horrid. i won't return and won't suggest to friends and family.
- Pros: neighborhood
- Cons: service, price, portion sizes
