The Saint Austere

The Saint Austere’s simple yet bustling dining room and friendly staff have served the Williamsburg neighborhood since 2011. The restaurant is the vision of the Pirolo siblings (Fabrizio, Jacqueline, John, and Michael), who along with Chef Samantha Diaz set out to present a fresh approach to European culinary staples focused on seasonal ingredients, clean flavors, and simple twists to classic dishes.
The menu is designed for versatility — from family-style shared plates to substantial entrees with wine pairings. The restaurant’s Guest Chef Dinner Series, wine dinners, and Sunday Supper all serve a special menu in addition to the typical one a la carte. The Sunday Supper is an homage to the traditional Italian supper the Pirolo's mother makes on Sundays.
The Saint Austere’s beverage program is a thoughtfully curated list of European wines and beers, with a selection of craft spirits and cocktails.
