    Great drinks, strong vibe, and all week happy hour 6-8pm with dollar oysters and $9 Old Fashioneds. Owner Reynolds makes you feel like a regular on your first visit.

    No frills cocktail bar that immediately makes you feel at home. Come for happy hour 6-8 pm ($1 oysters FTW) and try the el burro or rabbit key if you're feeling adventurous.

    Excellent happy hour spot in LES! Drinks are great, service is attentive and the waffle fries are a good bar snack if you’re hungry

    This spot easily became one of my favorites on my first visit. It's a perfect 'any kind of moment' sort of bar that's not too small and not too big. Awesome drinks, food, vibes and people.

    The cocktails are awesome! The bar is relaxed and inviting. Carlos and Reynolds make you feel at home. Come hungry because the food is awesome. Try the gumbo, salmon, jambalaya fritters.

    A laid back, bar-like ambiance easily hides the fact that their cocktails are well crafted. The Confederate Officer (bourbon, peaches, mint, lemon) is one of the more refreshing drinks on the menu.

    Fun cocktails and a very tasty mac-n-cheese snack. Great place to stop on a tour around the outskirts of the Lower East Side.

    Small cute bar where I think you can really watch the bartenders perform their magic because of their counter size. They do good job with seafood

    That "basic bitch" will get you nice and loose. Basically, blue Hawaiian Punch tequila in the best way. Chill vibe, and solid cocktails here.

    Oysters are good, but pricey. Hit the oyster happy hour from midnight to 1am daily for a late night snack. (99c)
