PSARAKI

Williamsburg

About the restaurant

Psaraki, meaning “little fish” in Greek, is the creation of longtime hospitality veteran James Paloumbis.

The restaurant evokes the charm of seaside tavernas found along the shores of Greece. It offers spectacular views of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Manhattan skyline, and the Williamsburg Bridge, juxtaposing the tranquility of its serene ambiance with the vibrant energy of nearby Manhattan. Psaraki is a place to unwind, enjoy a perfect cocktail, and savor traditional homemade Greek dishes meant for sharing while escaping NYC's hustle and bustle.

Psaraki’s menu is inspired by James’ culinary philosophy, which he terms “homemade”, where each dish is a testament to the authenticity and connection of family recipes, traditionally prepared and presented as if one was a visitor in James’s seaside home. Guests can enjoy a sampling of classic Greek dishes and a selection of Greek island favorites.

We discovered this place when coming to an appointment in Astoria and we are all not living in Queens! This place is so worth the distance! Some of the best Greek food I ever had and I grew up in Astoria before moving to Brooklyn. Spinach pie is lien made by grandma. All seafood is tender and flavorful. Lemon potatoes are the best I ever had as well along with all the sides. Cocktails are well balanced and delicious. Service is friendly and welcoming. We keep saying we may try a new place but we just can’t because This place is soooooo perfect.
