Stopped by here for some drinks after dinner. It was pretty empty and we were able to be seated right away on a Monday night. My lavender refresher was ok but it tasted pretty soapy. The service was pretty slow and we were seated outside which may have been why we were left alone.

I came here with my nephews and my mom, kids were starving so we ended up here. We got a table in the back. I must say this place is Dirty and disorganized. The glasses on the table were dirty Yuck, we literally sat there for 15 minutes before we got served and my boys were mad. I try to understand because I work on the industry. I was just observing how bad this place is managed SMH. There was one server trying to do everything, this place needs bussers and a manager. Nobody was helping this poor server, like who runs this place. This place was dirty, dirty dishes everywhere. Like if you know brunch is busy the owner sets up the staff to failure. Okay so I order the Shakshuka added feta and lamb sausage which was not good because the eggs were overcooked and they brought me the feta on the side the purpose of feta is to be cooked on it however, the sauce was bland like as if the opened a can of tomato and just heated it up , worst Shakshuka ever. My mom ordered a arugula salad they brought the dressing on the side (we did not request dressing on the side) mom was not happy. I ordered for the kids meatballs sandwiches they ate it because they were starving and got the toddler I ordered him the spaghetti meatballs, I tried the spaghetti meatballs and it was so bland and nasty. The food took about 40 minutes to come out. Then when we got our check I payed half cash I noticed the added 18 percent auto gratuity for terrible service lol. On top of my charge I got 5 dollar fee for using my credit card and that's illegal. This place is a joke go somewhere else with better food and better service.

Today, 04-27-24, my Order was wrong. The food was cold. My coffee was late and tasted terrible. The waiter who initially started to wait on me became distracted, fell behind with other orders/tables. This restaurant is poorly managed. I witnessed guests, more than 2 tables, dispute or wait a long period for their bill. I witnessed another waiter step in to help the waiter I had who clearly was not up to the job. Other diners also complained their Order was late. I watched a couple leave after waiting a long period to be served. In the past this restaurant was managed well. Today, management is awful. It's virtually nonexistent.
I had an amazing time at this spot recently! The moment I walked in, the vibe was electric—chic and buzzing. The decor was super cool, with sleek copper touches and some awesome art. The drinks were standout—each cocktail was a burst of color and flavor, showing off some serious mixology skills. There's something for everyone on their drink list, from vibrant cocktails to crafted beers and wines. The music was perfect, upbeat enough to keep the energy high but not too loud, so I could easily chat with my friends. And the owner? What a legend! They were super welcoming and made sure everyone was having a blast. I can't wait to head back, maybe for their happy hour or one of their weekend events. This place just nails it every time!

I happened to walk by this place on my way back from the gym with my fiancé . There was a plate with really nice cocktails and margaritas outside that caught our eye, and we entered to quickly get a drink and continue on. We ended up staying and having a great time and great conversation with the really nice Argentinian bartender, his service alone gave us the best experience we’ve had from a bar in the whole year we have been living in New York!We didn’t try the food yet, but we definitely will be back to eat as well!Highly recommend!

Pretty good but there were a few things that were a bit short of expectations. The veggies that came with the hummus were just a small bowl of celery and carrots. Maybe get a bit more creative. Pita could be fluffier. And tahini chicken was a bit dry somehow, despite being dark meat.

I wandered in here during a trip into Manhattan and had the local92 burger with a few expertly crafted cocktails (big ups to my man Kareem who can mix a damn fine drink).Everything was delicious and was clearly made with care and quality ingredients.All the staff was friendly and the atmosphere was on point!The industrial chic deco was complimented by the wall murals and the paintings hung about the space.I had a great time and would definitely come back with friends or on a date.Wheelchair accessibility: You can roll up with no obstacles

In love with Local 92! Stellar service all around, and David, our server, was a highlight with his vibrant personality and deep menu knowledge. The cocktails, cozy ambiance, and the unique curved bar with beautiful decor made the whole experience unforgettable!

Local 92 is the bomb! Service is impeccable!? David, our server, was all kinds of awesome with his wicked knowledge and super fun vibe. The cocktails? Mind-blowing! Plus, the whole vibe with that cool curved bar and the eye-catching decor just made the whole night. Def a must-visit!
Our visit to Local 92 was a cozy delight right from the start, thanks to the warm welcome that set a perfect evening mood. Sharing Mediterranean and Italian favorites, like the Israeli platter and seafood tower, was a hit with our group. What truly made our night, though, was the exceptional service. David, our server, was attentive, sharing insights that made our choices even more enjoyable. The cocktails were another highlight, with a mixology flair that brought each sip to life. It's rare to find a spot where the service shines as brightly as the menu. Local 92 in SoHo? Absolutely recommend for a genuine, memorable experience.

Absolutely loved my visit to Local 92! David was an awesome server - super welcoming and had the best recommendations. The drinks were incredible, and the food was delicious and fresh. David really made the experience even better. Can't wait to go back to Local 92. If you're checking it out, definitely ask for David - he's got the best tips!
This Mediterranean restaurant features a striking curved copper bar and unparalleled service by David. The ambiance and culinary expertise make for an unforgettable dining experience, blending tradition with innovation in a setting of warmth and elegance. A must-visit for a memorable meal.
Avoid brunch at all costs - there's a reason the place next door is packed and this one is empty. Burrata was watery as if it had been frozen previously, poached eggs weren't runny, 1/4 entrees didn't come until we had asked for the check, and to top it off, I have celiacs and was brought a plate with the bread removed yay, but every other thing had flour in it so I couldn't touch it and still paid for it. The hummus was good but that's all I can recommend. I want to say that maybe this was just a bad day in the kitchen since one guest walked out and the other table sent 2/4 plates back to the kitchen as well but...

Upon stepping into the venue, I couldn't help but sense an unsettling discord in the feng shui. Art pieces seemed haphazardly strewn across the walls, almost as if seeking escape. The cacophony of music, dominated by the relentless beats of top 50 Ariana Grande hits, only added to the dissonance. Yet, amidst the chaos, a beacon of warmth emerged in the form of my server – a well mannered, young soul from Argentina.As I delved into the culinary offerings, my palate encountered a disheartening symphony of mediocrity. Each spread boasted an overwhelming creaminess, while the chicken tagine, much to my dismay, exuded a sweetness rivaling Willy Wonka's confectionery realm. Alas, the flavors failed to evoke the nostalgic essence of tradition I had anticipated.The libations, regrettably, offered little respite, serving only as vessels for an unrelenting sugar rush. In conclusion, I implore you: spare yourself the disappointment. This establishment, despite its fleeting moments of hospitality, is best left unexplored. May providence guide your culinary adventures henceforth. God bless.
