After reading the very good and very critical reviews on line of Moutarde, were very surprised at how good the service was on a Mother's Day. The restaurant was packed but the service was quite fast, with no pressure to free up tables, and very friendly. Prices were reasonable, certainly comparable to other bistros in NYC and to upscale restaurants in Brooklyn. The menu was interesting and varied and the food was ok if not great. The house wine was drinkable and the appetizers and desserts quite good. Servings were generous. My only complaint was the noise. When the restaurant is full the noise level is quite high. Best to go outside of rush hours because of that.
Pros: Service, Variety
Cons: Noisy
