The Scene
With its thoroughly relaxed vibe and globe-trotting menu, Oznot's Dish is a light in Williamsburg's culinary scene. The interior recalls an artist's studio; colorful chipped tile covers an attractive bar near the entrance. In warm weather, take to the relaxing sidewalk cafe or the sunny, greenhouse-like room near the back of the restaurant. The service is as low key as the food.
The Food
This expansive menu rambles through India, Morocco, Spain and the Middle East, drawing on the signature dishes and spices of each cuisine. Start with the seafood mezze platter, which highlights excellent house-cured salmon, or the pastry-wrapped duck bisteeya with pinenuts and mushrooms. Main dishes range from internationally-inspired comfort food--like juicy lamb burgers with Manchego--to homemade pastas. Huevos Tripoli--two eggs with brown rice, lentil stew, salsa, feta and harissa--is a brunch standby.

Why does it have such a high rating? Maybe the brunch is good. I went for dinner, the food wasn't awful but it definitely was not a 9.1. Maybe a 6.

I've been there a number of times (and always had a good meal), but had a disappointing experience this past weekend. The dates wrapped in smoked bacon were awful--whereas they once came with lovely mixed greens and a delicious balsamic vinagette, they were overcooked and served on a bed of bitter frisee. The hummus platter was better, but just average (and pretty bland). I make a superior version at home (and not even when I buy the makings from Whole Foods). My friend had soup and said it was just so-so also. I'm hoping this was a fluke.

Maybe I've just eaten in too many great restaurants, but I don't see what all the hype is about. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't superb. Flavorless hummus. I agree with one review that faulted the under-seasoned nature of all of it. Cute space and decent service, but the bartender made so much noise as he clanged and banged martini shakers and glasses around in the sink that it kind of ruined it. Also, The Beatles are great, but not at volume 11. My nerves were a bit jangled by the time we left. Not a bad experience, but not a really good one, either.
