Dressler, a Williamsburg staple that, notwithstanding Peter Luger, put the neighborhood on the foodie-world map when it opened seven years ago, has closed up shop. Yesterday Eater reported that the owners, who also operate Dumont and Dumont Burger, could not come to an agreement with their landlord over terms of a new lease. The popular restaurant received a two star review from the New York Times in 2006, but as Eater noted, “things at Dressler didn’t seem quite right on recent visits, with meals there having been marred by poor service and lackluster food.” The owners hinted that they are working on future projects in Clinton Hill and Prospect Heights in the closing announcement posted on their website yesterday.
