Lighthouse BK is a Mediterranean restaurant in Brooklyn. They have a few tables outside and maybe 20 or so inside. The staff here are amazing, so friendly and helpful but also always around to get you what you need. They have a decent sized menu and prices arefair for the portions you get. The taste though is amazing. If you got a group, the mezze platter is perfect to try everything. Their steak is cooked extremely well, and their fish is fresh and delicious. Overall an amazing experience and the service couldn't have been better. Highly recommend making reservations at least a few days ahead of time.
Overall a lovely dining experience, we tried the steak salad and grilled market fish. Both were delicious, though I wish there hadn’t been so much sauce on the fish because the fish on its own was already beautifully cooked and seasoned without needing all the extra sauce. Fries were impeccable (the ketchup was a slay). Service staff were also amazing and attentive throughout!
Great food with multiple options to share, dips and delicious sourdough bread. Service was kind and fast. The space is cool but the acoustic is not that great so it gets loud. Would definitely come back to try other dishes from the menu
The bar chairs are the worst. It is uncomfortable and they need to adjust the bartop height with the bar chair height. The shorter you are, the more uncomfortable it is. Came for happy hour and the bartender was great. Everything was decent, nothing special. The pita bread and sourdough are wonderful, do not pass on those. The oysters were not the freshest and they were super watery/fishy.

Amazing brunch at lighthouse! East-going vibes inside with AC and good fans for summer. Everybody who works there is so kind, and you don’t need reservations weeks in advance to get in. I’m excited to try it for dinner!
I highly recommend the Bloody Mary. I always get a Bloody Mary at brunch and can confidently say this was one of my favorites ever. So high quality. The iced coffee was delish too.
For food, we started with some oysters, which were all SO fresh. Extra points for a smart approach to mignonette sauce: they put it in a dropper bottle! I also loved the eggplant labneh and olives from the mezze part of the menu.
The heirloom tomato starter with feta is so perfectly seasoned with spices and olive oil - loved this!
For entrees, we split the chilaquiles and the green omelette. Both were fantastic. The chilaquiles were especially good for sharing given how many chips it’s served with.
The omelette was so simple and yet one of the most flavorful omelettes I’ve ever had. The Smokey tahini that comes with the omelette is an especially great touch!
Casual, no pressure to turn the table. Food was good. We sat at the bar and ordered dinner there. The homemade sourdough was amazing. Started w the hummus, which was deconstructed, but good, all of it was fresh, but I was not expecting to have to mash it up myself. Wish I had a blender. I got the chicken sandwich which was excellent. My friends got the fish of the day and a cheese burger. Both enjoyed immensely. I would go back and would recommend to friends.
Really nice brunch/lunch spot, nice interior, airy and the food is great. The beetroot dish pictured was fantastic, also the Israeli Nachos were different, fresher and healthier than normal ones. Will happily go back
It's a great bite to eat very friendly and warm service. Beware of the false advertising happy hour limits 30 oysters per table. Definitely should let people know, but otherwise oysters were fresh.
We were there on Monday night for a group dinner and we practically ordered the whole menu. I can’t begin to tell you that EVERYTHING on the menu was AMAZING. We loved the dips, the salads, the tuna poke was off the hook, and the salmon skewers and the chicken shawarma made me drool. They also have $1 oysters which were coming back this weekend to have!! Love this place and the vibe is spot on!

Absolutely fantastic dining experience. From the pleasant greeting to the available seating I was at peace for a change in NYC. It was a cold evening and nothing but good company, cold whiskey and hot soup could comfort me. We arrived during happy hour so there was no avoiding the benefit. We took advantage if the $1 oysters and $10 cocktails. The oysters are absolutely fantastic, fresh and flavorful. Cocktails are delicately prepared by professional staff with care. My main course was the mushroom soup.The bowl was filled to the brim with delicious ingredients and perfectly blended altogether. I had nothing but an excellent experience this evening and will definitely be returning to try more dishes. My wife had the chicken shawarma. I have to say, the combination of fermented pepper, fresh chick peas and fresh greens really intrigues the palate.The dish is served with fresh, soft and delicious pita bread and I'll be honest if you're a bread lover like me, you'll be pleased. In total we've had a wonderful experience here and we are already looking for an opening in our schedule to visit again.

I recently visited here with a group and everything about our experience was perfect! I love a tapas-style restaurant, as I like to try everything, and this did not disappoint! We tasted just about everything on the menu. Each item was very well balanced with salt, acid, fat, umami and at times a touch of sweetness. It's hard to pinpoint my favorite dish, each one was delightful in its own right.
Great classics/twists on classics like the hummus, eggplant, tahini caesar and shawarma. I found the carrots to be bright with a unique seasoning - I have not had carrots prepared this way before, so it was a nice surprise.
The ceviche was also a hit, with just the right amount of spiciness and tang.
I ordered a summer cocktail with fresh watermelon, which was the perfect refeshing compliment to the meal.
The service was also very attentive and friendly. The space is quaint, with bright windows, making the space feel open and airy. Wood, brick and metals give an industrial, yet warm feel.
Conveniently located in Williamsburg, I would highly recommend and look forward to returning!
We went on a crowded Friday night so I think they were a bit overwhelmed. We ordered the full maze, burrata, steam tartare, chicken Schwartz, and hanger steak. The steak was not cooked to the temperature we asked but it was still ok tasting.
Everything else was amazing. I think they could use another bar tender though :)
This food was perfect. Great, delicious, scrumptious, flavorful food. Nice staff. Nice location.
I helped organize a bachelorette dinner (party of 8) this past weekend at Lighthouse, and we could not stop gushing over our amazing experience. This restaurant truly blew us all away, and we could not recommend it enough.
The staff (shoutout to Naama who was so easy to reach and coordinate with) went above and beyond to make our bride feel special. She printed special menus with a custom tagline, printed out the family style menu options we had chosen, and even changed the cocktail names to include the bride's name wherever possible. We even had a cocktail carafe and bubbles waiting for us as we were seated.
The food was phenomenal (we spoke about the sourdough and mezze the rest of the weekend). There was PLENTY for us all to eat and share, even with a few dietary restrictions in the group. The atmosphere was warm, cozy, and perfect for our very relaxed bride who wanted an intimate dinner with her bridal party.
We will definitely be back!
My favorite restaurant in BK. Naama, the owner, is a shining light in the NYC Slow Food scene. Such a wonderful food entrepreneur and community builder. Please support her and her amazing staff. The food is incredible. I recommend the Israeli nachos on the Happy Hour menu featuring seasonally appropriate veggies and ingredients. See you there!
One of the best spots in NYC. I took a date to this spot and let me tell you she loved it ;) the atmosphere was great and everything was just amazing.
The food was amazing and precise.
The staff was super friendly.
