Mominette Brooklyn Reviews
I went to this restaurant with my daughter while visiting NYC. The food is phenomenal, the atmosphere is charming, warm and inviting. The music was great as well. The owner welcomes you and in takes care of you. I sure wish I lived closer to go here more often.
What an absolutely amazing experience. The food was delicious, the restaurant is so cute and quaint and the service was impeccable. We had brunch on a Sunday and will definitely be back for dinner.
Had a fun little date night here. The whole place felt really homey, and I loved the decor. Service was super friendly, and made sure they could accommodate my peanut and cashew allergy. I tried ratatouille for the first time, and I loved it. Perfectly cooked salmon as well. Will be back!
I really love this cozy, intimate restaurant. It may be small, but it delivers big on flavor. You have to start with the escargot--it's a must. The standout for me, though, is the duck confit. Lightly fried for perfectly crispy skin, with tender, fall-off-the-bone duck, served alongside chips--absolutely delicious! Finishing the night with the crème brûlée was the perfect touch.
lovely place with attentive and caring staff. we were celebrating a birthday and our server noticed when the birthday girl left the table to come ask us which dessert she would prefer. the food was delicious. recommend the oysters and the chicken. not primarily vegetarian options but they do have some. hope to return soon!
Went here a couple of Sundays ago in the early evening. It was pretty much empty so we got to pick our seat!! Servers were so kind. We had oysters, escargot, and I got the handsome, the incredible, the tantalizing Beef Bourguignon. It was So good. It was everything I’ve ever wanted in a beef stew. The perfect amount of food. I haven’t stopped thinking about it, which means I WILL be coming back so we can be reunited once more!!!
I came here for brunch. I recommend sitting outside if you can since its lovely. The service was pretty regular but the wait staff is good. We got the coffee- sort of ok- and then the pancake, the ratatouille omlette and the burger. I highly recommend the pancake, it has a cake consistency and comes with a delicious strawberry butter. I also loved my burger, it was one of the better ones Ive had from a preparation standpoint, I got it with the blue cheese. The ratatouille omlette wasnt really a stand out but it was good. The space outdoors is lots of little cafe tables and chairs, it has a roof on top in case it rains and has one big group table for shares and large parties. I think I will be back for dinner
Lovely neighborhood spot. Excellent coq au vin and ratatouille. Don’t come for the steak frites, but this place does the other classics well. Cozy atmosphere, non-fussy, great for a night with friends. A touch understaffed on the bar (Melissa is amazing), but drinks great and food came out fast. Charles was our waiter, he was endlessly patient and friendly.
We decided to visit this spot on a weekend morning for brunch. We walked in without a reservation and were able to find seating without any issue. I'd arrive coming during the less busy times because they could get packed pretty fast. We opted for the mimosa carafe and I got the house burger. Great service and good dishes made for an enjoyable experience. The restaurant itself is quaint and gives off Parisian Brasserie vibes with wood finishes and a high top bar. I'd definitely come back for brunch and other meals too.
Very nice and Cozy French resto to go to. Great for dates, or meetings with friends. Prices are very raisonable. We had - Loster Bisque (Best! I've ever had!!!) Délicieux!!! Very light, no potatoes in it, A MOST TRY! -Ratatouile, taste wise it was excellent. My only complaint was the presentation, they went for a lazy one, it looks like some boil/sautéed big pieces of squash. -Escargot, that was our first time, we were suprised, not exactly was we were expecting. Lightly chewy, tasted like salted pork. It was ok. Something to try at least once. My drink was Douce Passion, mildly sweet passion fruit cocktail served in a tiny glass, it was excellent just too little. I definitely recommend this place. Bon Appetit!!
The location of the restaurant is definitely in a very good place. The atmosphere is really great. I sat in the garden and it was very comfortable. Chill.. You are in a quiet garden in the center of the city. I ordered a hamburger. It was the worst hamburger I have ever eaten in New York. I mean, a hamburger you eat at McDonald's is probably much better. I had a bad experience in this regard as well. But it is definitely a place where you can come with your friends, have a drink and sit. The bar looks very strong but I haven't tried anything. I only had a bad experience with the food. But still Thanx ❤️🔥🤘🏻
Came here on a Sunday afternoon for brunch, service was great with being seated right away and orders taken. Food selection for brunch was cute. Ordered eggs Benny, eggs parm, and Mac and cheese. Food presentation was nice, however the food lacked seasoning. The eggs Benny my eggs were over poached almost hard boiled egg like and the sauce needed a bit more seasoning to hold it together. The eggs parm was very fresh however it was bland in the seasoning. The Mac and cheese was very cheesy but again very bland, they needed to place seasoning in the sauce it just tasted like pasta and cheese thrown together. Overall nice atmosphere for a quick brunch.
My partner and I have been ordering takeout from this restaurant religiously every single weekend for the past three years. We’ve also eaten in a few times. And honestly? This place has a serious consistency problem — which is such a shame, because when it’s good, it’s really good. Their chicken and waffles can be amazing. The issue is that you never know what you’re going to get. We don’t have a complicated order. Literally the only request we ever make is no strawberries, due to an allergy. And yet… if they remember the strawberries, they forget the syrup. If they remember the syrup, they forget the béchamel. Sometimes the waffle is overcooked, sometimes the chicken is burned, sometimes everything is wrong at once. And then — just often enough to keep us hopeful — the order will be perfect. That’s why we kept giving them more chances. But what we received yesterday was the worst so far. The waffle was so hard it was borderline inedible. I had the same thought last week too — it honestly feels like the recipe changed, and not for the better. Our bacon came completely burned. And of course, the syrup was missing again. It’s really sad because this place has so much potential. It can be either really good or really bad, and you truly never know what you’re going to encounter. After three years… I think it’s time to move on. This is officially a breakup. Thank you for the good brunches, but unfortunately, the bad ones outnumbered them. 💔🍗🧇
