Pilot - Oyster bar restaurant in Brooklyn - Pier 6 Brooklyn Bridge Park, USA

I am obsessed with Pilot, I highly recommend this place! The boat has a great atmosphere to it and there are amazing views of Brooklyn + Lower Manhattan, regardless of where you sit. The food is incredible, the cocktails are delicious, and the staff are SO kind (Hannah took great care of our group)! I can't wait to return here, the vibes are immaculate and I will definitely be back!

Pilot is a very special restaurant as it is located on a retired sailing boat tied to Brooklyn’s Pier 6. You dine on deck with wonderful views of Manhattan‘s southern tip, and the Pier 11/Wall St ferry port. We came by ferry, the ride itself being a nice experience. The restaurant is specialized in oysters - you can choose between a variety of different oysters, but also different starters, mains, and desserts. While the oysters were amazing, we found food to be rather bland and uninspired. Service was ok, but could have been more attentive and friendly. It seems that the restaurant mainly benefits from its unusual venue and location… In hindsight, we would only have come for a drink and some oysters before heading off to another place for dinner.

Amazing place. Must visit for the view and atmosphere, and the boat itself is so unique. You have everything you need for a great time : good food, amazing view, pleasant music and great atmosphere overall. The staff were also great and professional. We had oysters, sea scallops and lobster salad and all the food was delicious. Great place for the special occasion for sure.

Great views and drinks! The oysters are a bit small compared to other locations. This location is dog friendly. I wish they had more food options. If you have motion sickness, I would advise not to eat here.

I enjoy this place for brunch very much, it’s literally located on a boat so if aware if you can get seasick easily! Everything I got was amazing, the oysters were small but sweet and flavorful. The crudo sea beam was very appetizing and refreshing because of it’s citrusy taste along with some herb and tomatillo. The hash browns was well cooked and just perfect and you can pair with the steelhead caviar, sour cream and pickled onions and transcend the flavor to the next level. The lobster roll was buttery and surprising with a generous amount of lobster! I added the leftover caviar on top of it and it’s full of seafood umami flavor. At the end, I had the key lime mousse and the gateau, and the gateau was a delicious crumbly chocolaty cake/cookie mixture, I couldn’t finish it because I was too full but I wish I could have.

Such a cute restaurant, but beware, if you have motion sickness this restaurant isn't for you... The boat was rocking so much, I felt so sick. The food and drinks were alright, but the service was fantastic. You'll have a great view of the city though

It was a last min reservation for 4:00pm which was the perfect time to go but plenty of people did walk-ins as well. The staff were nice and attentive. Food was delicious! Love the lobster roll. Scenery is great on the water. The cocktails were refreshing and made just right as well.

Dining with a different experience on a yacht moored by Brooklyn heights piers. Specialties are the seafood especially the oysters. Servers were friendly. Boat can sway a bit with passing boats for those who gets a bit queasy and seasick. The food were great and oysters fresh. Great view of lower Manhattan.
