Liman Restaurant offers the best fish in Brooklyn with an exclusive waterfront fine dining experience to enjoy your specialty Turkish-style Mediterranean seafood with family and friends.
Reviewed By backpacker31
Iâve been coming to Liman practically since they opened in the mid-90âs. Atmosphere is lively and during nice weather the retractable roof opens for a pleasant outdoor waterfront dining experience. Their food is always fresh and cooked perfectly be it seafood or meats. Their appetizers are fantastic - authentic Turkish/Mediterranean. On this visit we enjoyed a huge salad and a plate of sliced baked potato chips. My main course was the Turkish meatballs which were delicious. The sides of rice and wedge potatoes were excellent. The portion was huge and I took home leftovers. Our table enjoyed a very nice white wine. Prices are not cheap, but you get what you pay for - excellent quality. Service is professional and exceptionally attentive. The owner always comes out to say hello which is a nice touch. We are always treated like family.

Beautiful waterfront dining in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. Enjoy the view and savor the flavors of authentic Italian cuisine inspired by the sea.

We went for a birthday celebration dinner. It was dark and the beautiful view could not be enjoyed. We had the same server that we had before, but on this visit, he wasnât so great. He was late with appetizer plates, he didnât check up on us. The icing on the cake was when he got one of the orders completely wrong, and we had to wait another 15 minutes before It came. The food was good, but thereâs good food at other places too.

Nick was a local fisherman who docked his boat right here on Flatbush Avenue in 1955. Within a few years, people would stop to buy fresh lobsters and seafood right from the boat. Through the years the idea has grown into a successful restaurant --still in

My wife and I have passed by this establishment for years. One night as we were coming back from the Rockaways, we decided to stop in and check out the restaurant. I am so glad we did. We tried the Grilled Octopus, some raw oysters and sampled a Classic and Connecticut lobster roll. Everything was fantastic. My only complaint was the raw oysters may have been opened by someone with little experience in the fine art of oyster shucking. The waitress was also very nice and attentive. Definitely try out this seafood restaurant.

Lenny's was a bit disappointing. I was expecting a fantastic seafood restaurant. Lenny's is a fish factory- large portions of average food. More careful attention to presentation and preparations would helpWe are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your dining experience here. Your feedback is important to us. Please know that we have been in business for over 40 years because of our attention to the quality of our food and service. It is unfortunate that this did not show through on your visit. We hope you consider another one.

We usually order the ravioli. Cheese is our favorite. Portions are wonderful tasting and very filling. Salads are fresh and crispy and nice sized. Dressings are fresh tasting. Homemade bread is hearty and delicious. Staff is most friendly and attentive. Prices are very good. Going to try their cauliflower crust pizza next time. This place is so clean and kept one would think it is brand new but it is a well established place. When he can, the chef comes out front and checks on every table. Casual dress. This is a 5 STAR Restaurant

3. Whitsend
Reviewed By Gershwin12
This place was recommended to us by friends that live in Rockaway. The atmosphere is gritty and laid-back. I knew this was the place for me when I entered hearing music by the Grateful Dead playing in the background. Service was friendly and casual.I absolutely loved the Carcoifi Pizza pie perfectly cooked by the passionate chef/owner Whitney. His love for cooking is evident in the way he prepares his food and talks about the restaurant; if you have sensitive ears and insult easily please check your ego at the door and do not discount this place as a result. This is a taste of true Rockackaway culture not to be influenced by trends and hipsters. It is what it is; take it or leave it. Anyway getting back to the carciofi pizza pie. Made with chard fresh creamy lemon ricotta, complimented by crispy artichoke and Parmesan rosemary; my mouth is watering just writing about it. We ordered two pies for three people and it was plenty for sharing.BYOB. There was a deli directly next-door to purchase beer. Plenty of street parking.

The General Manager of my Fairfield Inn Hotel near JFK Airport had suggested the Bungalow Bar & Restaurant as I had earlier sent him an email requesting: a good seafood restaurant; must be near JFK Airport and directly on the water. We received all three as the Bungalow Bar & Restaurant was extremely good and a great place to visit. Especially with one of my nieces which I had not seen in over four years! She and her husband drove down from Connecticut to join me for a fantastic lunch on the water. After lunch they dropped me off at JFK and they returned back home to Stony Hook.We had lunch on the restaurants large outdoor terrace and our table was directly on the waterâs edge. The view of the water and the weather were both great as the sun was shining brightly.The food at the Bungalow was simply fantastic. From my raw Oysters to start to the special fried Shishito Peppers! This was actually my first time to enjoy the Shishito Peppers and they tasted great and reminded me a bit like the Spanish Padrone peppers. One should not skip these very special peppers. The New England Clam Chowder Soup was superb and for my seafood entrée I had the âLittle Neckâ Clams! Everything we had was very special and extremely delicious.The service was tops and all in all it was a lovely lunch on the Long Island Sound. Finally, what really made my day was the great time I had talking and reminiscing with my niece and her husband. No one could wish for more⦠If you really want a great seafood lunch I strongly suggest you try the Bungalow Bar & Restaurant, you will not be disappointed.

The view is amazing, and a lot of fun to be right on the water. The food was ok but not amazing. I had just run a half marathon and was in the mood for deep fried food (usually I eat much more healthy). The french fries were terrible, totally overdone and really inedible. The mozzarella sticks were fine. The calamari was ok but a little limp. Also got pina coladas, which were very sweet, not much alcohol, obviously made with a mix. Overall I'm glad I went, for the view and the "casual on the water" vibe, but the food was not great.
