    Pretty ambiance being near the water but brunch was pretty sub par. A group next to us was pretty loud so not the restaurants fault but not the best acoustics to block out sound

    Great views . Food was good. Quantity for the price was below par. Service was not that great. Server was very confused. They kept delivering food to wrong tables. Pricy place.

    Everything was great from beginning to end. Food was absolutely delicious. Waterfront view was awesome. Service was maybe a little slow given that we arrived for brunch shortly after they opened and we were one of the only tables- but this didn’t bother us since we weren’t in a hurry and the server was very nice. Would definitely go back!

    Food was fine. Server was super rude and unprofessional, openly ignored us, had to go physically find her to ask if we could order. Busser was the opposite, asking if he could clear our table every 5 minutes. Food and ambiance is solid but service needs work

    We didn’t get seated until 15 mins after our reservation time. They gave us a bottle of water with no cups. Also waited 20 mins before a waiter came to take our order. After our food came, no one came to check if we needed anything or refills for our cocktails. The food was delicious but the service could be better.

    Nice place. Four of us ordered the seared Atlantic salmon. Tasty but overcooked slightly. Portion size while not generous, was adequate. Our waitperson, Cadence was exceptional and delightful. Music was absolutely DEAFENING. Cadence graciously turned it down for us. Still too load. Normal conversation very difficult because of the noise. He.fact Full bar. No decaf. No teas - at all. Ambiance: upscale, diner-like. Very small dining area inside. Huge dining area outside. Magnificent views. Prices are average for Brooklyn and Williamsburg. Odd fact: Only ONE fresh fish item on entire menu.

    I was not happy, Me and my husband was served a small portion of food for husband and twenty nine dollars each. My husband ordered a lobster but no lobsters . Next a 60 dollars was added to our bill for a tip. Never again, I will never return to this place.

    OBSESSED with the food, drinks, and vibe here. My only complaint is that the food was coursed strangely. My fiance's entree arrived first, mine came about 10 minutes later, and our appetizer arrived shortly after my entree.

    Went here, for the first time, to celebrate my bday with some friends that came to town. Between the host and our server I felt like a bday princess! They were amazing. The food was fabulous and the view, oh that view! Wwatching the sun set over the city with a glass of wine in hand, good food on my plate, and the best service a girl could ask for? Yes! Amazing bday, will definitly be going back. New favorite spot in Brooklyn. Thanks Sea Wolf!

    Our server, CJ, was awesome, very attentive, had helpful suggestions, and made sure everything was to our liking. The atmosphere is very nice, nautical as expected. We sat inside because it was rainy weather on & off, but the windows were open and we had a beautiful view of the river. Food: the Mac & cheese was good but the sauce could have used maybe 1 additional sharp type of cheese to amp up the flavor. The whole lobster was pretty good, but the roasted vegetables were unevenly cooked. Specifically the purple carrots. The bathrooms are a bit small but I get that it's supposed to feel like a ship's bathroom. Not a deal breaker. The manager, Evan, was very nice as well, he had a nice Playlist of music going throughout our visit, and he even assisted us with taking some photos. I told him I'd add the pic with him in our review. All in all, we had a great time, and would return.

    What a nice gem! Came here on a Sunday with my husband and daughter. (12 months) This is a great place for a light dinner with fresh options. We came just in time to sit at the area where they usually keep strollers, so that worked for us. (Inside) We had the bbq wings (tasty) kale Cesar (I’ve had better) warm lobster roll (yummy) and Mac and cheese (creamy & delicious) everything came out as we were ready to eat so we loved everything. Ambiance I would give 10/10 since it’s right near the water and the sun was going down nicely there. The restaurant is surprisingly big. This is definitely a nice girls spot to get oysters and drinks so I’ll be back sans hubby and child ! For drinks we had a a ginger beer and a Stella, cold and refreshing ! No pics because we we’re super hungry lol will come back and update 😀

    Overall: Such an amazing first experience. Waiter was fantastic and attended to our needs. My partner and I originally went and couldn’t be seated at a table because we didn’t have a reservation. We left disappointed, but then ended up making a reservation on the spot and we were able to go back and be seated this time. The guy who had originally told us that we couldn’t get a table was so nice. He brought my partner and I 2 complimentary drinks. Food and drinks at this place are AMAZING! So worth the try! Highly recommend!! The view was a plus!

    Sea Wolf's best feature is its breathtaking view of Manhattan skyline. Go during or after sunset and ask to sit outside. The lobster roll was good, but overpriced.

    I was looking for a place to eat in Williamsburg, and found Sea Wolf on Open Table. What a find that it turned out to be. It's located in a lovely spot with great views of the river & Manhattan. My shrimp tacos and whole branzino with vegetables were so delicious, and the portions were quite generous. The key lime pie was the perfect way to finish the meal. My server Christian was beyond amazing - so friendly and knowledgeable, he made certain that my dining experience was perfect. I will definitely go back.
