Time Out New YorkApril 11, 2013This prettily appointed joint has feel-good vibes with gorgeous cocktails (the Iron Lady, a tart, rose-infused gin sipper) and hearty fare (a fat, juicy pork chop glazed in a bacon-fig vinaigrette). Read more
Catherine ThompsonApril 2, 2015Great vibes, very cozy spot, would be great for a date. One of the best meals I've had in a long time. I'd recommend sharing plates. It was a great experience for a great value. Don't skip dessert!
Serious EatsMarch 10, 2014The gastropubby menu changes daily, but you can count on thoughtful, comforting fare often finished with a surprisingly delicate touch.
jessica m. hintermeisterApril 3, 2013"Eggs & Butter" Soft-boiled eggs are smoked and served with horseradish butter and green-peppercorn salt. The yolks achieve that perfect gooey-but-not-runny balance, which isn't easy to accomplish.
NataliaOctober 3, 2014Great atmosphere - the bass, tasty but too many bones which didn't make it enjoyable. I've never got charged for gin and tonic like this: gin $8 + $1 extra for the tonic? bit overpriced if you ask me.
Lukas ThomsApril 4, 2015The carrots and smashed potatoes are phenomenal, and the pork chop is simply divine. Worth every penny (even if it is a lot of them).
Andrew SowersFebruary 19, 2016Make sure to request a seat in the back. For some reason, the staff always request I sit in the front even though the back area is superior.
Erin HawkinsSeptember 28, 2014Servers and food are great. Weird seating policy. Despite having over half a dozen free tables, patrons were asked to wait 10 minutes at the bar before sitting everyone at the same community table.
Madm FiaMay 17, 2014Oyster mushroom dish delish! Chocolate pate is unbelievable = sweet and salty spicy wonder.
Julian SilvaNovember 13, 2013Happy hour is awesome and the beets app is so good. So are the mash and the soup!
Anna OhareJuly 2, 2014Really good happy hour. Get an old fashioned and sit in the second bar area out the back.
Angela WilliamsAugust 11, 2014Happy hours ($5 Old Fashioneds!), great food, super friendly staff & locals.
Arun NandiAugust 8, 2015Great looking place but overpriced for the area and the portions for brunch. You'll leave hungry if you expected a good sized meal.
Lauren BrownOctober 20, 2013The apple and onion tart was perfection!! Try every course, you won't regret it!!
Paris Buttfield-AddisonDecember 15, 2014Great cocktails and breakfast. The full English with bacon on the side was spectacular.
Rob MartinezMarch 16, 2015The pork belly appetizer is like an amazing hipster version of bodega chicharron
Blair MikelsDecember 8, 2012Made a meal out of the side plates/apps, showstopper cocktails and dessert. Such a neighborhood gem.
Sarah DrydenApril 11, 2014Seriously. Don't skip dessert. Apple walnut tarte with sour cream is eyebrow-raisingly wonderful.
héloïseMarch 5, 2013Yorkshire pudding blew my mind and then the bacon collected all the brain pieces and made me whole again. I know that's a confusing metaphor.
Mark SperryMay 4, 2014Pretty good food but Jesus our server seemed to have abject hatred for us. Really ruined the great food.
Golan RamrasApril 7, 2013The Windrush: bitters, rye, rum, cognac and other wonderful things. Highly recommend.
jojoMay 19, 2014Beautiful atmosphere. The carrots are legit amazing. I need another Iron Lady, please!
Ruthie DarlingNovember 24, 2015I'm English and this food was such a disappointment. The chef might want to visit the UK at least once before attempting to make a ploughman's again #letdown
Ross VelazquezOctober 5, 2015Good vibes, but that doesn't really matter when you're using phone lights to read the menu.
Owen IversonMarch 22, 2014Be careful about the Happy Hour prices from 11am to 1pm. It sometimes doesn't translate to the bill :)
Everything is delicious, but the smashed potatoes are special.
Jake FarisJanuary 5, 2016The food is high quality, but the portions are *juust* a bit too small. Try the shirred egg.
Angela WenDecember 5, 2014For 3 people, get 3 small plates and 1 entree to share! Don't forget the bottle of Malbec

Princess FilmzFebruary 28, 2016Highly disappointing. I came for brunch and they were out of everything on the menu except eggs and orange juice. Drove 20mins to get here. Wouldn't recommend at all!
Erica van RabenswaayJanuary 3, 2015Sticky Ginger Bread is good. Had the Salt Cod Potato Pie at brunch. Extremely small portions. Half the plate was salad. Will not come back.- Pueblo Viejo TequilaFebruary 10, 2017The most delicious cocktails are mixed here with Pueblo Viejo Tequila.
