I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant Maison Premiere in Williamsburg, NYC, USA.
An outstanding seafood restaurant in the heart of Williamsburg — a true hidden gem! The entrance has a bit of a speakeasy vibe — there’s a small sign, but you need to look carefully to find it, and you enter through swinging saloon-style doors, which immediately set the mood. Inside, you’re transported to another decade: a beautiful oval bar, dim, jazzy lighting, and tables set close together, creating a lively and intimate atmosphere.
Service was excellent — efficient and knowledgeable. We tried a selection of four different oysters, all fresh and unique, perfectly recommended by our waiter. The crab cake was outstanding — crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful inside, served with a great spicy sauce. We also had mussels and a salad, both well prepared, and ended with warm madeleines that were absolutely melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
Overall, an exceptional dining experience — elegant yet unpretentious, full of character and flavor. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a memorable seafood dinner in Williamsburg!

It’s top-notch for oysters. But we never expect the oysters from East Coast become our favourite!
We were giving a try on the Thatch Island oysters, and we kind of having least expectations on them. Yet after the first bite, they were do fresh and balanced in the creaminess and crispness. The flavor cames earthly and mineral but also sweet!
They are the no.1 of the day!
We ordered the Dirty Rice and we thought it was just like a risotto. But it’s more than that! It’s rich in favour of Japanese Bonito and lobster, savoury and tasty! The Crab Toast was comparatively less among all.
All dishes we paired with a glass of French Rose and the Forever IPA.
This restaurant is now the top of my list in seafood bar of NYC!

This oyster and wine bar truly surprised me! Even though I couldn’t drink because of some inflammation, I couldn’t resist coming here with my friend just for the oysters.
Ambience:
From the outside it looks like a small bar, but once you step in, it’s a whole different world. The décor is pure 1920s vintage style, and all the staff and bartenders are dressed in retro outfits—so stylish! The backyard is absolutely charming, to the point where I even thought, “I’d love to have a wedding here someday.”
Food experience:
We ordered the oyster platter and tried every kind they had. To my surprise, the smallest oysters (I think the third from the last) turned out to be the most delicious—absolutely amazing! And I have to give a huge shoutout to their sourdough bread. It was chewy, moist, not dry at all—honestly even better than the Beef Tartare it came with . When I told the staff, they mentioned they recently got a new chef, and the bread actually comes from a bakery just 8 minutes away (something like “Woof”). Either way, it was fantastic.
Music & vibe:
The whole place was filled with funky jazz from a century ago, and it made me just want to dance. The vibe is perfect for dates, nights out with friends, or simply taking beautiful photos.
Sadly, we ordered too much and couldn’t try the desserts this time, but I’ll definitely come back for them!
In short:
A hidden gem with amazing oysters, unforgettable sourdough, a romantic 1920s atmosphere, and music that makes you want to dance. Highly recommend!

Enjoy stopping by this absinthe bar when in NYC. Tonight we stopped in after a dinner out to enjoy a cocktail and dessert. Tonight I tried my first ever Hot Toddy and to say I’m a fan does not do it justice. Delicious. For dessert we tried the ice cream-3 flavors (olive oil, fig and cardamom if I remember correctly) and Madelines. Food and drinks were very good, service was off tonight but they made up for it.

Wonderful oyster bar that serves delicious food and cocktails. The vibe is on point. My absolute favorite is the chrysanthemum absinthe cocktail , the crab toast, and the lamb saddle. Do not miss the absinthe creme brulee as well! Service is warm and efficient. Highly recommended!

I feel a bit mean being this picky about things BUT I went with two other people and sat in the garden in the back at one of the cast iron tables and although the food and drinks were great, the coordination and service left me wanting more.
We ordered the Yellow Parrot, Chrysanthemum, Margarita, and Peacock Throne as our drinks, and oysters, ceviche, beef tartar, bread & butter, and shrimp pasta as the food. Everything tasted great and I would order everything again, however, there was some awkwardness when we were given one knife to share for the bread and butter; not everyone is comfortable sharing utensils and the table being so small and laden with glasses and dishes made it awkward and tricky to keep passing this big buttery knife around. Also, one of us didn’t get a setting and even after asking for it, we had to wait until after the food arrived which again made it feel like one of us was holding the rest up and killed the buzz of the food arriving. The staff also seemed undertrained, although they were super friendly and nice, they just seemed like they couldn’t process all the needs of the table.
I definitely will be back, though. The beautiful garden, the great energy in the main room, the excellent quality of the beverages, all make it worth while, however I don’t think I will ever want to get any food there besides the oysters.

I went again solo and sat at the bar. I kept it simple and ordered a Peacock Throne and some oysters. My bartender 100% knew what she was doing; she was waiting on 1/2 the bar and making cocktails for the garden and you’d never know it, her presence was so consistent and she provided everything on time and even fit some chatting in. What a difference it makes (to me) when service is on point vs when service is not so great. If this would’ve been my first experience I would have rated this place 5 stars. Oysters were fresh and delish and my bevy was yumm.
Also, they had the garden decorated for Halloween/ Fall and the vibes back there were so amazing. I recommend to everyone to go at least once and vibe in that cute garden! Enjoy!

Up there with the best restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. The drinks were explained with passion and poured with care, every single dish was delicately prepared and bursting with flavor, and the dark, old-world vibe was immaculate. The perfect place to wile away an evening drinking and munching. Special thanks to Carling and Dustin for their exemplary service and energy. 10/10

Had this place saved for a while and finally booked a weekend afternoon spot. Went for the garden seating but had to switch inside after getting bug bites.
The vibe inside was cozy with live music, which made a great impression.
We ordered a cocktail, a whiskey soda, and oysters, fresh and tasty like an oyster spot should be. Left feeling pretty happy with the whole experience!

OMG, this place has become my favorite! I love oysters and few places have such an ample selection as this one. I recommend trying the Kumamoto oysters, they are spectacular. We ate in their garden and it was so romantic; the entire decor itself is absolutely beautiful. Without a doubt, one of my favorite places when it comes to eating oysters and having a good wine.
