“Williamsburgers can “stop cooking in home” thanks to this “easygoing joint” serving “artful” yet “cheap” New American standards; a “hip crowd” convenes in the “inviting” interior or “Zen-like garden”, or hits the Bedford Avenue mini spin-off for “awesome” burgers and sandwiches.”

“The multi-room space is warm and comfortably worn, furnished with dark-wood tables topped in brown paper, vintage tile floor, and cool leather seating handmade by the owner. There is also a lovely backyard with elevated seating called “the treehouse”. Executive Chef Polo Dobkin draws crowds who clamor for the comforting and impressively prepared menu items.”

“DuMont may look like just one more Williamsburg restaurant, but don't pass this one by. Inside, an antique sheen is reflected in the tile floor, and the weathered tin walls and ceilings…a list of seasonal specials along with a short menu of all American fare…even the specialty cocktails list is unique.”

“After carving out unexpected yet comfortable spots for tables and bar seats in Dumont's railroad-apartment-style layout owner Colin Devlin and designer Joseph Foglia took their penchant for spatial relations outside and created your favorite urban oasis of hanging plants, wooden benches and a ten-seat bar.”
