Editorial Review for Chez Oskar – by Liz Zack
In Short
In a neighborhood known for its French bistros, Chez Oskar is the grand dame on the block. Neighbors wave to each other from the sidewalk seating, and inside, wood tables host casual dates and group outings. The menu is steeped in Bistro Basics 101, with lunch options like mussels in white wine and a variety of sandwiches like lamb and arugula or proscuitto and mozzarella. Dinner highlights the restaurant's French pedigree with options like escargot, nicoise salad, and traditional burgers and steak.

I love this place! This is the place to relax and chill and listen to great music (live or otherwise)...I agree that the servers can take a lil while to get to get to the table but the food and drinks are incredible and the servers are really intelligent and fun to talk to about the neighborhood and the world. I especially love Jason's margaritas and Alex's Ipod! And if you are a crabcake conssiuer...oh my God! I go back again and again and I don't mind waiting cuz' brooklyn is all about chilling...and honestly ask and ye shall receive...it's not manhattan so it doesn't come right away, but they are slammed all the time, what d you expect?!Chill...it's brooklyn people!
Pros: Great outside seating, smart staff
Cons: slow kitchen

.........the service is horrible, the wait staff is indifferent, and once you place your order who do you have to know to get a piece of bread and a glass of water. These people must hate their jobs with a passion, or think that they are being cool by ignoring you. There are other restaurants on DeKalb that are much better. Run don't walk away from this place.
Pros: Nice outdoor seating
Cons: Everything else
