The Corcoran GroupMarch 5, 2012This is a great place to come for a rockin' Brunch (try the goat cheese scrambled egg wrap) or come for a low key drink and some great music.
Louis-Felix BinetteNovember 4, 2013it's a lively place with friendly staff & very respectable food. sunday nights are hard to beat with half price on all wine bottles and acoustic live music from 10.
One of the most coziest and loungiest in this area. Their happy hour and brunch is good too. People who work here are really friendly :)
Gajtana SimonovskaMarch 10, 2017Brasserie style with a huge bar, decent happy hour wine, good crab cakes and chicken dumplings. Live band playing rock from the 60s - 90s. Lively. People there are enjoying themselves. No pretension.
Jonny MurphySeptember 24, 2018Great food, lots of choice, great cocktails and excellent staff. All in a lovely setting. Great for dates, dinner with friends or after work drinks- Alisha OutridgeJanuary 12, 2013Genera makes the best watermelon martinis I've had in awhile. Highly recommend it because it's pretty hard to mix watermelon with alcohol & make it strong but still taste good
Natascha HMay 22, 2013Walked in for the first time and saw a face I hadn't seen in roughly 3-4 years from Sunnyside! Andy is the man, always happy, smiling and genuinely nice! Knowing he is here will make me return!
Andrew CJuly 28, 2020There was a wait to be seated -- but well worth it, esp egg topped bacon cheeseburger was phenomenal and fries were salted perfectly!!! Vodka/shandy cocktail was surprisingly great
Fawziah QadirJanuary 12, 2014The eggplant and porcini "meatballs" were divine! Completely vegetarian and couldn't even tell! The sauces are amazing, make sure to dip some rustic bread in them!!
Such a yummy brunch with great prices and cocktails! Faves include the fries, Benedict and burger 😁 indulgence at its finest.- Anna FrenkelFebruary 24, 2013Good drinks and snacks for small groups. I mean, you're in Murray Hill, so make the best of it, amirite?
Joanne ReinardJune 3, 2016Great bar and restaurant with a good selection of wines and tapas/small plates (not too expensive for once!). They don't have wifi though :(
Spencer VairoNovember 25, 2014Chic decor, incredibly attentive service and really reasonable happy hour prices. Get the country salad and enjoy their bread
DaveAugust 16, 2014We had the best night ever here. Best staff in all if NYC. Amazing food and the cocktail menu is crazy good!- Joanne ReinardAugust 3, 2016Food is Great and not too expensive! Love the happy hour and the bar is very welcoming (even when alone)
Yummy! I love the sharing dish of 4 small plates - coconut shrimp is great! Delicious martinis. Usually a good looking crowd too.
If they're not busy in the warm months, the allow you to bring your dog and sit outside. :) its worth calling ahead to make sure.
Thomas YuFebruary 15, 2015Come in for brunch. The french toast blueberry compote and mascarpone is melt -in-your-mouth good.
The food is amazing, the crowd is always exciting, great specials on certain days but the best part by far are the bartendera and staff!!!!!
Natalie AnilloJuly 6, 2015It gets pretty cold inside and the AC is blasting, so make sure to bring a sweater during the summer or you'll freeze!
Gabriella RossiMarch 16, 2015Their food is good and they made great drinks. Try their brussels sprouts and a Pimm's Cup!
Jalapeño margaritas!! Go to place for a decent lunch or dinner but my hands down favorite is the drink.
Steve DeanMay 20, 2014Rosé sangria is excellent. More importantly, if you don't try the pesto gnocchi, you've failed at life.
Swemeatballs .March 2, 2011Perfect after work bar and the food is excellent. Had the lamb shank and it was on par with some of the best restaurants I've been to.
EchoDAMay 31, 2012light and easy going place, lit food selection, but really gets packed after hours..sunday are more peaceful with a band playing
Kevin DudleyOctober 18, 2019When other restaurants nearby were closing early, this place is open late on Sunday night. There was a (loud!) live cover band. Not many good low carb options, but food was good.
Ashley ChanAugust 6, 2016Drinks are not amazing, but the vibe is unpretentious and energetic. Nice place to unwind after a long week.
✨Adrienne✨October 29, 2011Went there w/friends and we had the Blueberry Banc Mojito and the Watermelon Martini. Both were bangin! Great happy hour specials!
Jacqueline OliverioDecember 31, 2012Always a good time. Meet friendly neighborhood peeps. Jesse rocks too and he's easy on the eyes. :-)- Great happy hour specials, rose sangria is really good!
Johannes SchunterOctober 5, 2013The chicken & wild mushroom quesadillas for brunch were really great!!- AlesiaNovember 10, 2011Very reasonable happy hour and a great burger. I'm still shocked I left with only a $20 bill for dinner and three drinks!
Jennifer LejbJuly 13, 2011Amazing food. Order the warm goat cheese and beets. To die for! And the salmon entree is wonderful as well.

Pamela KotsaftisJuly 8, 2011Have a refreshing Absolut cocktail!..... Bartenders choice!, they are super friendly and knowledgable
Joey JAugust 15, 2015A nothing special bar/restaurant in Murray hill for all the neighborhood newcomers.
