“Family, friends, and loved ones, what’s missing? Beer. They have it completing everything that is needed in life.Awesome weirdly decorated brewery with lots of seating and good vibes. Pricing is great and the staff is super nice. Definitely worth visiting.“
“A nice little bar with a really fun vibe, friendly staff. Super enjoyable place to sit and relax. I didn’t love the cocktail I ordered (espresso martini), but I think I would absolutely come back and order a house special drink. Definitely somewhere I’d revisit!“
“Kudos to Solera! Service and private seating were top-notch and very personable. Ordered several items from menu and all were delicious! Celebrated granddaughter's 2nd birthday and staff did an amazing job with dessert with candle and song. Traveled from the south and will visit again on next trip to NYC.“
“The wine selection is outstanding, accompanied by a superb food menu that's straightforward and user-friendly. The ambiance is wonderfully minimalist, and the food is served at the ideal temperature with exceptional flavor. We enjoyed the Long Island duck and pork tenderloin, as well as steelhead trout and gulf prawns for starters. I highly recommend stopping by if you find yourself in NYC.“
“Neighborhood gem. Great decor, homey, comfortable but well appointed. I have dined here alone and with family, both times it was a good atmosphere. GM Michael is really good and runs a good staff. The food is delicious- good for all types of diet restrictions. Fresh ingredients well prepared. Last but not least also great cocktails. Host and server were friendly and attentive. I will for sure be coming back here!“
“I love this Craft Beer and Burgers but this place is amazing is like you were in Disneyland roller coaster of flavors and I’m very thankful to my Server Kendra L. Briggs to take care any time and how she’s rolling this place from the beginning to the end great food experience and service as well!!!!!“
“KCBC Brewery stands out as a beacon for beer aficionados, boasting an expansive space that instantly welcomes you with its warm and inviting vibe. The sheer size of the place allows for a diverse crowd, from casual drinkers to serious hop heads, all finding their niche in this vibrant atmosphere. The selection of beers is nothing short of amazing, with each brew showcasing the craftsmanship and passion of its creators. From rich, robust stouts to crisp, refreshing lagers, there's something for every palate. The vibe is lively yet relaxed, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a long day or kickstart a night out with friends.However, there's a catch—KCBC's focus is solely on their brews, meaning snack options are non-existent. While this might be a slight downside for those looking to pair their pint with a quick bite, the quality and variety of the beers on offer more than make up for it. It encourages guests to immerse themselves fully in the tasting experience, perhaps even prompting a visit to local eateries before or after. In essence, KCBC Brewery is a must-visit for its exceptional beers and the nice vibe it offers, even if it means planning your snacks elsewhere.“
“Got there at 6 on a Thursday, waited 2 hours for a table for 2. Mozzarella sticks and ribs were amazing. Wings, burger, and ice cream sundae were fine. Service was great, and I loved the atmosphere, it was loud as hell so some people may not like that but I have no issue.“
“I had a fantastic experience at the restaurant yesterday! Mamun, our server, provided exceptional service, and Jordan went above and beyond, giving us a thorough tour and sharing insights about the Virgin brand. Highly recommend this place and looking forward to returning.“
“After binge watching Love is Blind for 4 hours, it took everything for my lil baby and I to peel ourselves out of bed to make our 6pm reservation at Virginia's. To be honest, the last minute cancellation would have cost me $50 so that's really what got me... and that's so fair they should charge for last minute cancellations on a res.I've walked by Virginia's hundreds of times at this point, and made so many mental notes to pop in as it looks so inviting from the outside. Upon finally entering, I was right. Inviting af.As we sat down I became almost giddy for the meal, as the ambiance is so well curated. I'm a sucker for those little floating orb lights and a cool under lit bar ahahaha.We started with drinks (Negroni for me, obviously. My nickname in high school was Post Negrone), the little gem salad, and the crab croquettes. The little gem salad was out of this world honestly. I don't even know, I could have eaten 10 of those things.For mains, wifey got the burger per Yelp direction and I got the Steak Frites because I am on a mission to try every Steak Frites in the city.The burger is absolutely to die for. The hype is real. It's recommended medium rare, and it came cooked to perfection. I mean look at the attached pic, Jesus Christ. Every bite of this large beef patty amalgamated with cabot cheddar, onion marmalade, marrow aioli, and bacon is a juicy blast of heaven between 2 buns. It was spiritual.The Steak Frites was the best one I've had in NYC. Granted I've only had like 7-8, but still, head and shoulders my favorite right now. I mean again, just look at the pic attached. Do I need to say anymore? I mean look at that Maitre d' butter soaking into the steak. Great portion size too. Steak was bigger than my head ahaha God did.However the only negative, that is my civic duty to mention, was fries do not come with the burger... and the fries are an extra $12!?!?! DAMN. Me and wifey just split the fries from my Steak Frites so we were chillin, but an extra $12 for some fries? On top of a $20 burger? $25 if you add bacon too… $29 if you add the egg…I really began to worry about the future of the world when burgers stopped coming with fries. I wonder if they'll start serving scrambled eggs without bacon lol. That's when I'll know it'll be time to flee the country.Regardless of fry-gate, I loved this place... I don't hold it against them either, as most high end American places are doing this. Much to my chagrin in times like this, the market is the market.Shoutout to our girl, Morgan, as she was an amazing waitress. Super engaging, giving us great recs, checking in on us all the time, etc. The staff here was fantastic.My experience was so memorable that I almost bought a hoodie, but bailed last minute as I got really shy and I spent a good amount on dinner ahahahaha.This is one of the best American Food spots I have been to in all of NYC. It will make my revised list of All NBA Lower East Side Restaurants. GOD DID!IG @jnov_Tiktok @jnov__“
“From the moment we stepped in, our dining experience at Barnea was exceptional. The exquisite food tantalized our taste buds, and the top-notch service, led by server Reuben and manager Anthony, elevated our evening. Every dish was a masterpiece, and the attentive staff ensured our every need was met with a smile. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Barnea to anyone seeking a truly memorable dining experience.“
“Milk & Hops is definitely worth checking out, great selection of draft and craft beers along with some small bites. Two different sides of the bar: great atmosphere to watch sporting events on one end and the cocktail lounge on the other side.“
“An impressive selection of CBs ranging from refreshing flagship pilsners and lagers at approx. 5% alc. content, to bold IPAs with around 7% ABV, and even indulgent rich barrel-aged stouts boasting 10-13% ABV. The staff is efficient and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant experience. One tip: if you plan on ordering food, it's advisable to do so nearer to the entrance before proceeding to the counter beer seats to avoid missing out on the opportunity to pay with your credit card!“
“Cozy beer parlor on a quiet street corner with rotating taps of beer, sours, and ciders, delicious snacks and sandwiches, and friendly service. Summertime here is magical with cold beer and outdoor seatings. Great ambiance and perfect for chill hangouts.“
“Great little spot with a rotating draft list and incredible vinyl records playing some hits. They have a great back patio. Love going here for a couple beers before going out on Vanderbilt for the night. Love the divy, music forward vibe of this spot. Can't wait to go again!“
“The staff is professional and friendly. Their vegan dishes are beautifully prepared, spiced to perfection and taste delicious. The vegan burger is the best that I have had and better than many beef burgers. The vegan chocolate chip cookie is hands down the best on the city.“
“An absolutely wonderful dining experience. The ambiance was nice - minimalist Japanese decor, wood tones, and music that you didn't have to scream over. The food was excellent and not too pricey. I went with a group and we ordered a bottle of sake which came to us in a large ice dispenser for the table which was a surprise and delight (not to mention we got to pick out unique sake cups for ourselves). The wait staff was friendly and informative. Will definitely be returning“
“I know this place just opened, but I extremely highly recommend. A few of my friends came to eat here and so I decided to give it a try. Walking in, I was surprised how there was literally no one there but a ton of workers which I guess was great for me as they were super attentive. I was a bit surprised by the prices were pretty high for something that was supposed to be take-out, but the minute they start making the shawarma, I knew why it was more expensive. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma platter and it was delicious! Perhaps one of the best shawarmas I've had in the city. First of all, they gave us a platter just for all the toppings, did I mention that they are unlimited, that they had. Sometimes the toppings don't have that much flavor, but each one was very complex and flavorful. The chopped salad was light and fresh which balanced out the finely chopped pickles which added a sour taste. The red cabbage slaw which was slightly savory and slightly sour balanced out the onions that had a slight charred on it. I was so delighted by all the different toppings, which is where I think the place definitely shines. The chicken itself was okay, tender but not crazier than normal. Overall, I had an amazing experience and especially with the portion sizes, the platter could easily feed a family of 4 with additional leftovers. I think it will take me at least 6-7 meals before eating it all but I did add some of my own rice to counteract the bounty of flavors. I will say that they don't automatically give you the rice or the fries so big reminder to ask them for that when you come.“
“This is hands down the best restaurant in NYC! Nestled in the vibrant West Village, it's an absolute gem. I brought my sister here while she was visiting from out of town, and she loved it!The sushi is truly out of this world, and the ambiance strikes the perfect balance between sophistication and great vibes. Daniela and the entire team work wonders to make the experience truly special. Whether it's a date, birthday, or business dinner, this place is perfect for any occasion. The food quality is simply outstanding, with the most interesting ingredients expertly combined.I find myself recommending this restaurant to every friend who visits. It's no wonder it's gone viral on TikTok! Hurry up and make a reservation, because you don’t want to miss out!“
“Absolutely love stopping here. The staff are sweet, helpful, and timely. The oysters are fresh and delicious. Definitely get yourself the Mac and cheese and ricotta dip to share bc they are delightful! Great place if you’re looking for a light tasty meal and a proper glass of wine.“
“(Brit abroad here)Lovely little bolt hole pub. Happy hour is true to its name, good strength beer/cocktails at wallet pleasing pricing.The atmosphere was lively, but In the good way!Highly recommend for a quality pint or two....or three +a dark and stormy“
“My wife and I visited Handcraft Burgers and Brews for my birthday this past weekend. As soon as my wife opened the menu she knew that I was going to have to try the burger of the month which was a peanut butter and grape jelly topped hamburger with jalapenos, bacon and cheese. Admittedly I have never had peanut butter and jelly on a burger before but I figured I would try something new and see what all of the hype was about. Turns out, I loved it! Every bite was so flavorful and completely made my birthday lunch a worthwhile venture! We also tried the tater tots, because who doesn't love a good tater tot. We could have chosen from multiple dipping sauces but we decided to go with the garlic aioli and I am glad we did. I dipped each of my tater tots in the sauce and there was plenty for both of us to share. We were helped by Vanessa at the restaurant and she was very accommodating when I was having trouble using a coupon that I had for my birthday. All in all this was a wonderful choice for my birthday lunch and when we are in the area again I would definitely stop by and perhaps try the latest burger of the month along with some tater tots and garlic aioli dipping sauce of course!“
“Greywind was, for us, everything its reputation anticipated. A lively and comfortable place with very attentive servers. Our waiter, Rob, was both incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and incredibly funny the entire night! Plus, we had a birthday in our party and the chocolate writing is quite possibly the most precise and beautiful food writing I have witnessed. I think it speaks somewhat to the expertise in their kitchen.“
“Nice neighborhood spot on Atlantic that has a good happy hour We've come here in small groups and big groups, but they really only have 1 long table in the back that's good for 4+ people. I'm looking forward to warmer weather, when we can take advantage of their outdoor garden area. The truffle fries are pretty addicting - super crispy and truffley Cocktails are ok and a bit on the pricier side, but we take advantage of the beer & wine during happy hour The only downside is that they're usually understaffed, with only 1 bartender for the whole place. We're usually waiting on orders/drinks for a while, but hopefully when they get busier, they can add more staff“
“Been coming here for the past month since I moved back to the neighborhood. First time there tested out the hummus, spectacular. 2nd time the shwarma and malawach with a side of spicy harissa - outstanding. This will be my go-to for Fort Greene Israeli food.“
“Have now visited several times and have to acknowledge the quality work that this bar does at being an unpretentious place to enjoy a good beer at the end of the day. The selection is truly world class and the service is always helpful, kind and ridiculously knowledgeable.Grateful a place like this is available for folks who want a relaxed place to grab a drink at the end of a long day. Can't recommend Queue enough“
“Great place just to pop in warm.uo and wet your whistle plenty cans or draft + your standard line of LIQS BOB was great he attentive friendly knowledgeable paired my Jameson shots with a tasty IPA definitely a worth a visit and return visit pleasant atmosphere“
“In a chill spot of New York City, Red Paper Clip isn't just a restaurant—it's like your cozy hangout spot, packed with awesome surprises. From the second I stepped inside, it felt like I was walking into a friend's place. The vibe was super inviting, and the smell of sizzling spices got me hyped. Oh, and let me tell you about the Betamax cocktail—it's straight-up amazing! And don't even get me started on the testing menu—it's like a food adventure you gotta try. Plus, Chef and owner Kevin? He's the friendliest dude ever! Seriously, my time at Red Paper Clip was next-level awesome from start to finish.“
“Great cozy spot for a cold Sunday beer and grilled cheese. We got the Fun-ghi and Figgy Piggy and it was a good mix of sweet and salty. The shop has tons of fine foods for gifts or appetizers, a long fresh cheese bar, and craft beer to go. What more could you need!“
“We knew it was a gamble to do takeout, but wanted to try it anyway. The burger is decent, but no special sauce and the 8oz patty was in our view too large to be properly complimented by the ingredients, so recommend the 5oz for a more optimal taste compilation. The fries were tasteful but unfortunately soggy even though we had a 5 min transit time only, so can only give 4 stars for the takeout experience. Probably best to eat this on location (and support the staff!), and we will likely give this a second chance on prem“
“Went there for lunch with four others. Wr call the Donburi but different types. The apps were the usual Edamame (can't mess this up) and some tasty pan fried Gyoza. We all enjoyed our Donburi and finished them but I thought it was kind of bland so really 3.5 on the food.“
“Loved this place. Great beer (though if you’re British they aren’t shorting you on the pints a US pint is 100ml less than a UK one). Fantastic food. I had the Salmon with Cesear Salad. Nachos were amazing too. My wife’s burger was equally good. I’ve never had one so big.Wish I’d bought the souvenir T-Shirt they were the best quality I saw in NYC.Dietary restrictions: I bought a fish dish which was very good and we had Nachos.“
“Proletariat is my new favorite place! What an original beer menu and ALL TASTE GREAT! The service is spectacular and the atmosphere is supercool, laid back, and inviting with your choices between darker/lighter/private/communal nooks and crannies all around. The B burger and fries were fantastic, as were the peppers! This place rocks my world and I'm already planning another rendezvous there soon.“
“I hosted a surprise 30th birthday for one of my old college friends at Bar Nine and we had the absolute BEST time!!! The bar’s manager couldn’t have been more helpful and kind and helped me set up the whole party for a group of 15! The drinks were awesome, the service was amazing, and the music was top notch! We had the best time and can’t wait to visit again soon! Thank you Bar Nine for an incredible night with all my college friends!!“
“A lovely spot in Rockefeller Center! Other Half is a must-visit for any craft beer lover visiting NYC and this taproom was so fun! I visited around 6pm and the taproom was busy with an after-work crowd enjoying beers and conversation.Highly recommend Broccoli, NEIPA and Poetry Snaps, Rice Lager.“
“The BEST NYC pizza hands down! It beats Grimaldi’s and all the other ones. Their tomato sauce is prepared so sweet I order MORE of it as a topping. The cheese is delicious and the Sicilian style size pizza is Amazing! VERY CRISPY. The only way to know More about the place is go to it in person!“
“I was meeting a friend for dinner and it was pouring out. Being wet and cold instantly disappeared once I walked into this magical restaurant! The place is cozy, tables well spaced, clean and comfortable.The wait staff was super friendly, made good suggestions and brought the food out timely. We had the crispy chickpeas with rosemary and black salt. This is listed under snacks. I suggest you order these as soon as you sit down to snack on while deciding what to order. The chickpeas were deep fried with wonderful seasoning and had a delightful crispy taste.They have a wonderful wine list. We had the Chateau De Chantegrive Graves 2012. It is a Sauvignon Blanc & Semillon, France. It tasted like a mixture of a Sauvignon Blanc and a Chardonnay and was not too sweet. It also is a great value at $11 a glass.We started with the Steak Tartare appetizer with fresh Chile and ponzu sauce. The chef at this place is a master at spicing, the true art of cooking. Fresh Chile and ponzu are two very flavorful ingredients where each can dominate. Just the right amount of each was added and the flavors blended perfectly with the tartare.We then had the Wild Dover Sole with salsa Verde and the Salmon Rice Bowl with coconut rice, seared salmon, avocado, seaweed, sesame seeds and ponzu sauce. I had never had wild dover soles and wanted to try them. The dover soles were incredibly light and almost melted in our mouths.The Salmon Rice bowl was extraordinary with oodles of flavor. The coconut rice was cooked to perfection.We finished with a cappuccino and latte and the coffee flan. I love flan and coffee so it was heavenly for me. The flan had a strong coffee taste and was not overly sweet as some flans are.Can't wait to go back and try other dishes.Even though I do not live in the neighborhood it is worth the trip!“
“I’d give atmosphere 10 stars if I could. This is my all time favorite bar. It’s chill. The staff are incredible, and there are regulars that all know each other and talk. I love this place so much I rented it out for my wedding reception.11/10. Couldn’t recommend more.“
“In town for work and my coworkers and I stopped in after a team building activity.Bear was behind the counter and took great care of us was helpful in assisting us with choosing beers.Nice chill spot. I’ll be back next time I’m in New York“
“A hidden gem near Times Square! This spot has dive bar vibes (meant in the best way possible), a killer beer selection including a wall of cans/bottles that you can take to-go or enjoy at the bar. A must-visit for a beer lover looking to enjoy a craft beer and escape the tourists in Times Square!“
“Great local bar with a very large selection of beers and delicious food cooked to order. All kinds of great bands on different nights of the week. They have fire pits in the back in a covered area with large screen televisions and exceptionally friendly staff. If you're in town in Rockaway Beach, definitely a place to stop by and have fun with friends.“
“I had the BEST experience at Sandy Jack's! They literally have the cheapest drinks and best happy hour deal I've been to. I really don't think there's a cheaper option in all of NYC! On top of that, the bartenders were super sweet and the regulars at the bar taught me how to play pool :) plus it's dog-friendly! Such a fun and welcoming environment overall. Everything you could want in a bar, I can't wait to make this my regular spot!“
“It's a beautiful hotel and the staff are really great. I felt the rooms were a little small though and lacked some storage space, although I appreciate that it's New York and that's kinda the style the hotel is going for. The coffee shop and the bar are great amenities to visit and make use of.The doors are really thin though and you can hear everything that's going on in the corridor. The walls aren't quite as thin but we could hear an argument that kicked off in the room next door.On balance I would recommend it since it is pretty well located.“
“Highly recommend the ribeye (steak and mashed potatoes) and chicken wings. With over 90 beers to choose from, it's impossible to go wrong with this place. We were taken care of by Rina, who is there Fri and Sat. Amazing and attentive waitress who knows her beers. Visit this place!“
“Atmosphere was a vibe and the bartenders were really friendly !! Bald bestie at the bar extended a firm handshake after giving me my receipt and I thought that was so fkn funny BUT THEN he wanna go and offer to take a pic of me and my friend only to take a selfie with the other bartender LIKE ??? We were weakkkk And the ~other~ bartender who brought the doggo over was super sweet too :')“
“It is an excellent and unpretentious place for a girl's night out. We went on a Thursday they had Good music with enough volume to talk with your friends. Good food and curated coctails, I got the Parmesan sandwich on a hero, and it was freshly prepared and delicious plus it came with salad instead of French fries. ( good to cut your carbs ;)) the waiter was fun and kind.“
“Favorite bar in NYC. Beautifully understated, tons of beer choices attached to a simple cocktail list, and just big enough to find a seat on a busy evening while still feeling cozy. It's everything you want it to be without the fluff; couldn't ask for more out of a neighborhood tavern.“
“Lovely place to stop and get a beer when in New York or in Harlem. The selection was based on local beers that were either supportive of women own breweries or LGBT focused. The bartender was very kind and super down to earth! ! We'll be returning next time we are in town.“
“I really enjoy this place. It’s a little bit difficult to get service sometimes cause it gets really busy but it’s a really cool place to go for happy hour after work. Plus they have happy hour till 8 PM with two dollars off like many of their drinks and eight dollar drinks. It’s a great space to come with work, friends, and plenty of room to enjoy.“
“Great small place, this please can be come my next Cheers. Locals are great and very welcoming to new comers and give you great recommendations. Great selection of beers and very good food, I would come again.The owner operates the bar and he is very accommodating with great beer knowledge.“
