The food is good but the service is so bad this place needs more waiters very slow

They used to be the cooks at the famous lil Charlie’s clam bar on Kenmare st. In nyc. Now in Williamsburg Brooklyn. the fried shrimp with medium sauce off the hook. The calamari is a lil big and chewy. I go with the shrimp and linguine. The mozzarella and tomatoes is a must make sure you ask for garlic too. Get the crumbled hot sausage and broccoli rabe. A glass of wine and some coke and you’re in business.

Desy’s Clam Restaurant in Brooklyn is an absolute gem and easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in New York. Their three signature red sauces—mild, medium, and spicy—are each uniquely flavorful and crafted to perfection, giving every dish a bold and memorable punch. Whether you’re in the mood for a gentle tomato sweetness or a fiery kick, there’s something for every palate. The staff and the owner are incredibly welcoming, making you feel like family the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious, and the service is genuinely top-notch.
The food here is unforgettable. The shrimp, chicken, and eggplant Parmigiana are all tender, perfectly breaded, and smothered in that amazing red sauce and melty cheese. The cheesy garlic bread is a must—crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and loaded with rich, garlicky goodness. Their meatballs are incredibly tender, savory, and clearly made with care. And to top it all off, Desy’s serves what I’m convinced is the best cannoli in New York City: crisp shells, creamy filling, just the right touch of sweetness. I have probably been here 70 times and even had my engagement party here! this place is a Brooklyn treasure.

The food was surprisingly good juxtapose against the menu prices. The portions are incredibly large again juxtaposed against the menu prices. The food that I had the mozarella sticks and the veer parmesan were out of this world and such a bargain. I am saddened that this place is all the way in Brooklyn far from my abode which is in lower Manhattan but that shant deter me from popping back in. Again, Really looking forward to more mozzarella sticks.

I don't know what happened to this restaurant. It used to be a very good family oriented restaurant. Please be careful, you'll get overpriced. I went one day I got one price and my father went another day and the man with the glasses that always serves us was there and charged us less. Every single time the other guy charges us we get charged more. To be honest. Patsy's has better food. That's why Bobbydo doesn't go there anymore-

Food was pretty good with the exception of the fried calamari we ordered as an appetizer. They were over cooked and tastes like I was chewing a rubber band with salt on it. I’ve eaten here before, so I was a bit disappointed. I had the angel hair pasta with meatball parmigiana & garlic bread. My husband enjoyed his penne al la vodka with chicken. Sangria was pretty good too. Waitress was very polite and apologetic when she realized we couldn’t eat the calamari.
This restaurant has very good service, but the food was not really good.
Six (6) of us went out and four (4) of us ordered the chicken Parm and it was not good. All four (4) of us agreed that the chicken was rubbery. Also I never received my pasta on the side.
Bathroom did have soap and paper towels to dry hands.

Food was absolutely incredible and staff was so nice. I got the seafood pasta and they give you the option to get either angel hair or fettuccine, and either a white wine garlic sauce, or a red sauce. Will definitely be coming back!

Been coming here for a very long time. Today was a horrible day. Service did not understand anything. Only had two other tables in the restaurant. Bring it out to the server lady. She decided to laugh in her faces of why everything is so horrible tonight.
