Visiting Brooklyn for first time. My son recommended The Longshoreman because my husband wanted a burger and I felt like Italian. We were both pleased! The burger and fries were perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. My Margherita pizza was just as it should be, chewy, lovely sauce and fragrant basil. I added the arugula watermelon salad which was so yummy with the feta cheese and light dressing. My son had the linguini and clams, which I tried and again was not disappointed. A fun stop at the bar while we waited gave us a chance to meet and chat with George, our bartender, and enjoy a delicious gin, grapefruit and dill cocktail called the Real Dill. If you are in the area, make a point to stop by this hidden gem in Cobble Hill ( I think). Well worth it!

We always love going to The Longshoreman for dinner. We go regularly and sit at the bar when Andrew is working. He makes the best and most creative cocktails. The food and service are always amazing.

Our family of six had such a great evening out at the Longshoreman. The food was fantastic and the service even better. Our server, Emily was a delight … knowledgeable and friendly, and the service was really quick given that the place was packed that night!! Lovely atmosphere and great drinks too!

Overall fantastic experience. The ambience is perfect for a night out with family/friends. The ricotta starter and steak entree (recommended by our very helpful waitress Emily) were to die for!
Marc Stauble
I had a fantastic experience. Food was amazing, drinks were great and the service was lovely! If you ever go ask to be served by Emilie! She was the best. Will definitely be going back!

I've been to this restaurant multiple times now with family and friends - consistently great food and amazing service! The Ricotta, Brussel Sprouts and fries are must haves. The drinks are also great. We have been served most times by Emilie and Andrew who always offer us great recommendations, and are just wonderful every time!! We will be back again and again.

We've loved this spot since practically the day it opened, and it's recently become our regular stop for Sunday dinner. The food is delicious, and we've had just about everything on the menu. Cocktail menu and wine list cover all the basics with lots of modern twists and newer favorites as well. Service has always been welcoming and personal, even with our two-year-old daughter in tow. (The kid's pasta with garlic and oil might be the best thing they serve, and they have crayons!) There's usually a pasta or pizza special in addition to the three options for each that are on the menu, and they've been more than willing to accommodate special requests for pizza toppings, especially during off hours.

I wish I could eat here every night. The pastas are immaculate! All freshly made and incredibly creative. Not only is the blended dough beautiful to look at, but it also tastes delicious. You can feel the time and care that the staff put into making guests feel at home. Servers are attentive and friendly. Overall, a lovely restaurant and I would recommend to everyone I know. A foodie’s dream!

Went here for a special occasion and the ambiance was very nice. Service and wait time was amazing and we were attended at a reasonable time. Drinks, food and dessert were all really great in terms of portion size and taste. Would come here again.

Didn’t really have the best experience. Food was good but not worth the price. Would have been fine hadn’t they basically kicked us out after about 1hr and 15 minutes. No time for a second drink or even coffee and desert. People seated before us were allowed to stay after us. Almost half a grand later for 5 people and we weren’t treated the way we should have.
Amazing Food! From the appetizer to dessert, everything was on point! The staff was super friendly and attentive. Wednesday is wine-day, so every bottle is half price. (and please taste the chocolate brownie.... it's heavenly!)

Disorganized and unprofessional service that made for an uncomfortable evening. Server had zero idea what they were doing, described a sauce for a dish as being made with "shrimp excretements" lol. Had no inclination of when was an Appropriate time to come to the table and then proceeded to rush us out as soon as possible. As far as food goes, The pizza was burned and boring. The pasta dishes were small and bland. The only thing that tasted good was the lamb chops but unfortunately was literally the price of a half rack of lamb yet only came with TWO pieces from the half rack. Basically, the food was subpar and overly priced. They really need to get their stuff together because after my experience, i probably wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy.

We just tried a new restaurant this evening. The food was delicious! There were 2 other dishes; black squid ink pasta with shrimp ragu and margherita pizza that we just gobbled up without taking photos! The olive oil lemon cake was moist and delicious! It was not too sweet but the right amount.I will totally come back here again and try other dishes!Also, the service was friendly and amazing besides the beautiful washroom!
