PSARAKI

4.8

4.8 (93)

$31 to $50

Greek

Williamsburg

About the restaurant

Psaraki, meaning “little fish” in Greek, is the creation of longtime hospitality veteran James Paloumbis.

The restaurant evokes the charm of seaside tavernas found along the shores of Greece. It offers spectacular views of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Manhattan skyline, and the Williamsburg Bridge, juxtaposing the tranquility of its serene ambiance with the vibrant energy of nearby Manhattan. Psaraki is a place to unwind, enjoy a perfect cocktail, and savor traditional homemade Greek dishes meant for sharing while escaping NYC's hustle and bustle.

Psaraki’s menu is inspired by James’ culinary philosophy, which he terms “homemade”, where each dish is a testament to the authenticity and connection of family recipes, traditionally prepared and presented as if one was a visitor in James’s seaside home. Guests can enjoy a sampling of classic Greek dishes and a selection of Greek island favorites.

Fantastic view of river and lower Manhattan skyline! And a beautiful promenade as well, with plenty of locals walking their adorable dogs. Everyone on the staff were exceptionally pleasant and accommodating. Food = excellent! Fresh ingredients, delish salads and exquisite fish entrees. Drinks were great as well. Highly recommended.

Always love coming here. The service is excellent and the food just so darn consistent I can't find fault with anything. The chef obviously knows his business and continues to deliver, especially the mussels and the Zucchini chips (EXCELLENT!). We had a seating problem but Yannis (John) stepped up and seated us at a good table. We'll be back for another delightful and delicious dinner. Question: Why do you not serve Zucchini chips at lunch?

We love the food. Our only complaint was that we felt rushed. Our waiter couldn't wait to take our order and wouldn't let us order appetizers first. We had to order everything at the same time. That did not happen the last time we were there. Also, we were barely finished and they whisked the dishes away from us. My friend was still finishing her lamb chops. She was talking and they kind of intimidated her into letting her plate be taken away. We did not have that at our last visit.
