"From its six-seat tasting counter to the six-course menu, this cozy, concept-driven spot in Carroll Gardens takes its name to heart. The space is intimate and warm, with exposed brick, dark blue walls and brown leather booths, but the open kitchen commands attention from the moment you walk in. It's equally good for date night or a night out with friends.Executive Chef Nico Bouter leads the way with a tasting menu at the counter and a full à la carte menu for the rest of the room. Hamachi crudo in whey broth, gnocchi with braised duck confit, and passion fruit custard with meringue and elderflower exemplify the chef's contemporary cooking style inflected with European and South American touches available here." - Michelin Inspector

Six - Review - Carroll Gardens - New York - The Infatuation

"At this unique restaurant in Carroll Gardens, $195 not only gets you eight courses of food, but also a professional photoshoot. You should probably dress up if you’re going to check it out. Diners are served beverages and snacks in a lounge area before the shoot, and then dinner. They also offer a la carte dining, with a menu that draws from various cuisines and includes everything from pork schnitzel to picaña steak and chicken livers with sour cherries. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Will Hartman

We went twice within the same week, because we left wanting more, and the 2nd time allowed us to experience different dishes. From the moment you enter, you get this very pleasant, cozy & modern Parisian bistro feeling. Kirk’s hospitality is off the charts. He is an owner who really cares about his patrons and it shows. The food is very well executed, and beautiful to the eye at the same time. We went from one discovery to another, as the tastes matched the beauty of the presentations. There is a lot of attention to details in this restaurant. The Lamb Guiso might as well be their signature dish, along with the creatively presented Pork Schnitzel. Both are not to be missed. We went a la carte for both nights but begged for 2 dishes from the tasting menu that were quite appealing. If I was living in Brooklyn, I would be there routinely. We will return for sure, as this restaurant seems to ambitious enough to evolve even further. The wine list is also creatively concocted.

Carol Garden is my new favorite area for a fine dining yet stopped to surprise me. Here is another brand new gem in its crown. This place will provide you with very fine example of Netherland culinary. The place is very classy, yet cozy and perfect for a romantic dinner. It has very open contemporary design with probably the most open kitchen that I ever seen. Imagine that you're in the loft, the dining area just continues into the kitchen without any, even formal barrier or separation. As for the food everything that we tried and I mean everything was simply delicious! The hamachi, gnocchi, mushrooms everything was top notch! The dessert was equally great, especially passion Fruit- a perfect combination of taste and texture without being too sweet. The portions on the conservative side, but were very filling and price is also very comfortable for the quality of this place. The only advice I would have to get them their tiger bread a bit bigger. The place is open just in March 2025, but already made a very recommend place if you want to have a great dining in Brooklyn. I would definitely come back for more.

6 is an absolutely phenomenal addition to the neighborhood! It's the kind of place that is both high end and relaxed enough that you can go to celebrate something special, and also get an excellent meal on a random evening you just drop in. It's rare to find places that are this good without even a whiff of pretentiousness. The food is top tier. Incredibly complex and balanced flavors, perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. The service is fantastic - everybody is very friendly and attentive, the timing is great. To top it off, the prices are very reasonable for the top quality experience they provide.

Wow what an incredible new neighborhood gem! This place absolutely surpassed expectations. We went as a group of 5 and got every item on the menu except the cheese, two of a few things based on the waiters’ recommendations on portion size. Then the pastas were so good we had to get a second order of both of those too! Flavors are well balanced and food isn’t overly salted or just pure butter like many other places. Can’t wait to come back and try the tasting menu as well. So so happy we found this place! Truly felt like Michelin level food and presentation but with quality like this, sadly they will probably soon become much harder to reserve.

Lovely space. We got a great table which was a rounded banquette with a nice view of the chef and his team in the kitchen. Very friendly and gracious service. We had all the appetizers except for the olives followed by the halibut and the pork schnitzel. For dessert we had the chocolate torte and the cheese. Food was gorgeous looking but not dazzling for my taste. My favorite dishes were the scallops, anchovy toasts, the legumes, and chicory salad. Also the chocolate torte with amarena cherries was delicious! There's definitely a European aesthetic to with the Scandinavian chef. Meaning everything is very well prepared but some of the flavors are subdued. For instance, the capers and the chilies on the schnitzel tasted washed out which I guess is intentional, but not my preference. The schnitzel needed something bolder flavors to balance it. It does come with a very refreshing fennel salad and some lemon to add a little spark but for me it wasn't enough and it was a little under seasoned. The halibut was beautifully cooked and presented but the mussels and the sauce were again very subtle but the roe added some pizzazz. I thought the cheese was not very interesting. If you're only going to have one cheese, it should be dazzling. The fried wafer that seems like a wonton skin was kind of greasy but the Applestroop was interesting.

Edit: So we came back here to celebrate my birthday. This time we tried the tasting menu and 6 Restaurant did not disappoint. Service and food were excellent. My favorite dishes were the scallops and lamb, but really everything was quite good, including the pre-dinner ‘snacks’. This place is a neighborhood gem - highly recommend! // This place is Great. My wife and I enjoyed an amazing meal, celebrating her birthday on a rare night away from the kids. Excellent service, and every dish we had was fantastic (we devoured the anchovy toast, legume salad, scallops, picana, and chocolate torte). Looking forward to coming back to try more menu items, or perhaps the tasting menu next time! I thought the pricing was very reasonable, given the high quality and beautiful presentation of food, and I also appreciated that the wine list had a healthy selection of moderately priced bottles (we tried a Ribolla for the first time and it was excellent). The restaurant owner was friendly, and he took Polaroids + printed an extra for us to take back as a keepsake since it was my wife’s bday (the other print is pinned to a cork board in the restaurant, which is another fun touch). They also thoughtfully poured us complimentary glasses of port with our dessert. Such a great addition to the neighborhood. Highly recommend, and we will definitely be coming back 😊

The tasting menu was amazing. A very balanced menu with vegetables and proteins. My neighbor had the vegetarian menu and she loved it. And it includes a photo shoot. Great and special experience in Carroll Gardens. Highly recommend it.

Tremendously delighted with the dining experience at 6 NYC!! The plates are beautiful, exquisite, the atmosphere is calm and cool, the lighting is flattering, the design of the space is beautiful, even the smallest details are thoughtfully curated. The staff is spectacular. I loved all the meats we tasted (see photos), the paté was delicious, spectacular wine list, scrumptious desserts. I recommend the experience 100%.

Carroll Gardens Treasure! We had a lovely meal at 6NYC this evening. The room is uncrowded and very warm and welcoming. Food was superb. We started with Tiger Bread, followed by gnocchi with duck and pork schnitzel. My husband declared the schnitzel the best he'd ever had, and the gnocchi were pillowy, served in a rich broth, and layered with pieces of soft and tasty duck. Dessert was semifreddo--light and refreshing with lots of citrus and wonderful texture. We live nearby and spent our meal discussing which friends and family members we would return with first.

Making reservations was super easy and seamless! +making reservations is easy +professional portrait photoshoot! +go for the tastings +friendly service

We had a fantastic experience at 6! Loved the ambiance in this new place in Brooklyn. The service was terrific with the waiter guiding us through the menu and helping us decide from many different items. We settled on a couple of oysters to start, the tiger bread, and summer squash with chèvre, then for mains had gnocchi with duck confit, pesto pasta, pork schnitzel, and Atlantic cod. All were beautifully plated and delicious, but the gnocchi with duck confit really stood out. The gnocchi was light and fluffy and the duck was perfectly seasoned without being too "ducky". Schnitzel was crisp and well seasoned and the pasta was unusual in that these were sheets of pasta that we had never experienced before. We finished up the night with passion fruit custard and the chocolate torte and the winner there was definitely the passion fruit. We will return!

Ambiance was great! Very clean place and services were good. Waiters explained what's in the dish and was nice. Food was decent too. Sliders were decent. Gnocchi with duck look like a small-medium portion but it was surprisingly warm and filling. Def a nice place to try in Carroll Garden.
