Restaurant lo Pont

Excellent location to grab a bite of Catalonian cuisine. Plenty of seating inside and outside. The plates are well portioned, priced well for what you get and they also had excellent flavour! Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.

Very nice service, the food is amazing and done at the moment. Vegan options can be done with entrances. Very recommended. The price is also very good.

Authentic catalan restaurant with a large variety of food and good prices. We had croquetas, chuleton and butifara and it was very very tasty.
I recommend it!

Amazing food and great service! Delicious cheese cake, goat cheese salad and meat. They have menu in english which was very nice

A very nice place to have lunch. The menu is around 15 euros and has a lot of options. All the dishes are nice and home cooked, nothing ready made stuff. Portions are also generous. Great to try some Catalonian specialities like Escudella, Canelons, Peus de Porc...
And the staff are very friendly and helpful.

They share the job of executive chef at their second restaurant, Le Crocodile, also in Brooklyn. This is probably fortunate for them, given how popular the place has become since it opened in December. It is definitely fortunate for us, because another thing Mr. O’Neal and Mr. Leiber apparently agree about is how the food at a modern New York brasserie should look and taste.

The menu’s long, single page cascades from one category of appetizer to the next, from shellfish to snails, before arriving, about midway down, at Entrées. That’s a head fake: the word is used in the French sense, and denotes more appetizers. Ten main courses follow, under Plats Principaux, and then come a dozen desserts that more or less describe themselves: profiteroles, chocolate pot de crème, a cheerfully sour lemon tart. There are so many dishes you’re not quite sure at first whether two guys whose best-known creation is a pancake will be able to keep up. They do that and then some. Nearly everything I’ve had at Le Crocodile has made me want to come back for more.

This is not the easiest feat in a genre as thoroughly pawed-over and cliché-ridden as brasserie food, although to be precise we are dealing here with New York City’s peculiar notion of brasserie food. In a New York brasserie you almost never see choucroute, but you may well see Jonah crab salad, which at Le Crocodile, is stirred with yuzukosho mayonnaise and sits on a cushion of avocado purée. It’s delicious. So are other cold things from the raw bar: sea scallops in a spicy green pool of parsley juice, herbs and lemon; Wellfleet oysters, their deep pearly cups holding a splash or two of bay water.

Despite this distinctly broad-minded understanding of brasserie cooking, though, Mr. O’Neal and Mr. Leiber do get in a lot of recipes that either come from France or make you think of it. Onion soup is mandatory in a place like this, but Le Crocodile makes it pull its own weight. The broth is almost velvety, fortified by lardons, and there are good crunchy mouthfuls of toasted sourdough croutons instead of the usual limp blobs of drowned bread.

Pickled mussels, plump and orange, nod distantly to the plate of herring at every other brasserie in France, down to the pickled onions and carrots that ride along. Cold leeks in vinaigrette make an appearance, too, though they’ve undergone a little remodeling: trimmed into bite-size segments that are stood on end in a foundation of ravigote sauce and then covered with toasted hazelnuts.

There’s a sort of salade lyonnaise — I say sort of because the lardons you’d find in Lyon have been replaced by smoked eel. The idea is great; the salad is smokier than the original, and with the wonderful added oily softness of the eel. In its framework, it is not too different from the smoked-herring Caesar found at M. Wells Steakhouse, and before that at the original, too-pure-to-last M. Wells in a stainless-steel diner.

Awesome service(the waiters are nice and do their job fast). The food is very tasty and definitely worth its cost. The chicken breast is more than recommended

Si buscas comida casera de calidad, este es el sitio. Todo sabe a casa y se nota que está preparado con cariño y buen hacer. Las croquetas super sabrosas y caseras, canelones de espinacas, lomo con roquefort y ensalada de salmón muy buenos. El servicio muy atento y agradable. En fin, te lo recomiendo si pasas por Sort.

Está muy bien. Quizá el lugar no es suprr fancy, pero está bien, modo bar. Las raciones son contundentes, caseras y muy buenas tanto de sabor como de calidad. Admiten mascotas dentro, lo que también genial para ir con tu perro. Los camareros muy amables y atentos. El servicio rápido. Calidad-precio muy bien. En general muy buen sitio para comer o cenar.

Paramos en ruta a comer en este restaurante, que gran acierto.
Trato muy amable y atento.
Si vais os recomiendo reservar para no arriesgaros a no tener sitio, ya que parece bastante popular, y no nos extraña.
Comimos fabas a la catalana - riquísimas, fideua, redondo de ternera con setas y surtido de botifarra. El pastel de queso de los mejores que he probado nunca.
Sin duda repetiremos, un lugar para disfrutar y a buen precio.

Hi hem dinat avui i molt bé, menjar molt bo i servei molt atent. Menú entre setmana molt correcte. Destaco el xurrasco, carn boníssima i també el flam casolà, quina delícia!
Si ets a Sort és una mt bona opció!

Llegamos sin reserva y el dueño super amable nos buscó sitio en 15 min, un trato perfecto tanto del dueño como del camarero que nos atendió , comida muy buena sin lugar a dudas ninguna queja, volveré seguro, gracias por vuestro trabajo empeño e interés y cuidado de sus clientes.

Hemos comido aquí tras una ruta en moto, el día ya estaba siendo bestial pero con la comida sólo ha mejorado, increíble el menú con una fideuá con alioli sabrosa, seguido de un surtido de botifarras (negra, de huevo y normal) a la brasa buenísimas y lo mejor (aunque no haya foto porque lo devoré como si llevase 2 meses sin comer) la tarta de queso, ¡que maldita maravilla!

El trato buenísimo, super majos todos, no dudaremos en volver para la próxima ruta motera en Sort.

Ens ha agradat molt, tant el tracte del cambrer com el menjar. El local és prou gran, moltes taules i fins hi tot terrassa en taules. Per sort hem trucat per demanar taula i ens han dit que si. Per cert, vaia bistec bo!! Molt bo! I lo pastís de formatge casolà terriblement deliciós!
Avui tenien menú del dia a 21€.
Si teniu oportunitat aneu val la pena.

Nos ha encantado el restaurante. Es de menú diario. Cuesta cómo 18€ y entra 1°, 2°, bebida y postre. Éramos 4 y pedimos de beber agua, vino, casera y un refresco y nos pusieron una botella de agua de 1,5L, una botella de 750ml de tinto y una botella grande de cristal de casera, osea increíble. Luego la comida estaba IMPRESIONANTEMENTE BUENISIMA. Salimos super encantados, tanto los primeros como los segundos. Lo único el churrasco un poco seco y el brownie también un poco seco, todo lo demás estaba BUENISIMO. 100% recomendable.

Calidad de producto. Recomendable el arroz con pollo y steak tartar.
Muy buena atención y servicio.
