Four Five Six

i had my birthday dinner here with a group of 13 total. we ended up having this room entirely to ourselves as no one else was there, which was really nice. the ambiance was super nice, great mood lighting and plant decor, it was perfect for the dinner. the drinks were interesting, nothing super notable, but the options were unique and at a pretty good price point. we got the 3 for $18 crostini option, which was delicious but kinda expensive for just being 3 small crostinis. we also ordered the mushroom tagliatelle which was ok but again nothing stand-out compared to other mushroom pastas i've had. the pasta was obviously homemade which was nice though, but the dish overall was kinda bland and could've been more flavorful. the parmesan cheese the waiter added on top was carrying the dish because there really wasn't a strong flavor profile otherwise. overall, the vibe of this restaurant really lived up to expectations but sadly, the food dishes we tried did not.

With its spacious digs, al fresco seating, hipstery vibes, jazzy nights, boozy offerings, and Mediterranean food options, it's easy to assume Four Five Six can be just about everything to the average Williamsburger. Every night of the week might feel like a different experience here and thus it's one of the neighborhood's more versatile options. If it's just about finding a place with extensive outside seating. Four Five Six fits the bill. During the weekend afternoons, this place has a sprawling al fresco scene, ideal for large groups hoping to drink and grub together. There are some comfy couches and limited seating within their aesthetically pleasing interior, but a bulk of their customers will end up outdoors. While they open as early as 8am on some days, I'd recommend coming earlier before the evening service kicks in and the place is packed.Their cocktails are in the $14-15 range, which is expected in these parts. The hibiscus basil margarita is always a safe bet as is the cucumber fresco. All the smoke is my preferred drink here and it contains a nice mix of grapefruit, lavender honey, lime, and a generous pour of mezcal. The beer drafts are seasonal and the wine selection is super decent. I would suggest splitting a bottle amongst friends for a nice boozy evening.The food is a bit of a surprise with their variety of pastas, salads, and sandwiches. The pastas are supposedly made in house and include items such as ravioli, lasagna, tagliatelle, and even gnocchi. Their burger is deceivingly tasty and I appreciate that they have a vegetarian equivalent that is just as popular. The skirt steak gets my vote, but mainly because they also offer sauteed carrots / zucchini / brussel sprouts as viable sides.Sometimes there is a massive line to the bar. I realize that all establishments have a tough time with staffing but the waits can be long sometimes. Add to the fact that drinks / food are hard to come by when seated the whole time, which is likely a microcosm of said staffing issues.I would recommend their jazzy Wednesday evenings with a cocktail and/or wine in hand with some good company. While they offer a lot more, I think the mileage really varies from evening to evening.__________My photos: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/four-five-six-brooklyn?userid=ysCBsXWPB-LAiewVS3jZfQ

The Picky Apple was the perfect hot fall cocktail. Apple cider and rum with a cinnamon stick, hints of lime, and triple sec. The perfect blend of dry and sweet! Four Five Six feels like hanging out at a cool house party. The back room feel makes it like a speakeasy, but with cozy couches and romantic lighting.

A very attractive and roomy venue.Service is quite attentive while managing to be unobtrusive.

I had the chance to visit this spot with a group of friends for a birthday on a Friday night in October. overall this spot seems great! Spacious outdoor area and a comfortable lounge type setting inside. This seems like a great spot for groups and the venue allows you to make reservations for groups for indoor and outdoor tables. They also have a food menu which seems ideal for a bar type of situation. I didn't have their burger but it looks extremely appetizing. Overall I will say that drink prices are a bit on the up side here. I know we're going through inflation but $10 for a can of beer sounds a little steep to me. A good spot for 20-30 year olds and good vibes from the staff as well.

Overall rating 4.8Absolutely obsessed whenever I'm in the area. I feel like Four,Five,Six is the perfect depiction of East Williamsburg. Not too posh, not too chill, quirky enough.I think I've only had a few bites here & can't remember if I liked it or not. Definitely worth checking out and recommend going with a group of people.

Dear Yelpers,This place is super laid back with cool mismatched comfy seating. Their outdoor space is really nice and their staff is very nice and welcoming. Would come again for a dimly lit convo. Really chill space.8 out of 10, do recommend!

What a cute little spot!! Their indoor/outdoor vibe is perfect for late summer/early fall hangouts. I had a few of the strawberry basil margaritas which were delicious. Also shared a charcuterie board which could have had larger portions for $30 but all in all - lovely spot I will return to for sure

Crostini had weak ingredients on SOFT bread. It was alarmingly un-crunchy and lacked flavor. The salmon was completely flavorless. I am not exaggerating. I asked my server if the skin came crispy. He said it wasn't quite crispy. I didn't realize there would be NO skin. Nor would there be any seasoning! For something so well-cooked, it was alarmingly unflavored. The small lemon wedge added nothing. I could have used an entire lemon, and it still would have been a disappointment. One star for the beauty of the venue & one star for the doorman. There are too many good places to eat around Brooklyn Steel to get anything but a drink here.

I absolutely love Four Five Six! The vibes inside are so cozy and homey, and their ample outdoor space is so fun when the weather is warm. I've gone here so many times that I decided to host my 30th birthday party here, and could not have had a better experience! The vibes and music were the perfect atmosphere for they party. I was able to reserve a large space in the back with couches and love seats, and guests went to the bar for drinks where the service was quick and the cocktails were amazing. People were also able to order food if they wanted it - I know a couple of my friends had the lasagna and loved it!!I would definitely recommend hosting a party here, but would also recommend it for a date night, or just drinks with friends. You can't go wrong with Four Five Six!
