Sweetwater Restaurant

Best brunch in Williamsburg. 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).…

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.…

good with caveats. I've been a regular for years, and the food has changed, but stayed pretty consistent. of note are the fried calamari, meats are their strong point: burgers, hanger steak, pork tenderloin. brunches are pretty light. great outdoor garden. HOWEVER, service isn't their strong point. i'm getting pretty tired of the argentine "owner" and his manners. he should be running a club not a restaurant. my husband and i came in waiting to be seated, when a couple of tarts hobbled up. the argentine sat them first and completely ignored us. if you can stomach watching him flutter about chatting up young chicks, your girlfriend or wife and can stand his dismissive attitude toward other customers than Sweetwater would be the perfect place to bring your hot date. what has become of a neighborhood when regulars don't count anymore?…
