ℳ𝒶𝓎♍February 2, 2019Great mimosas, great brunch specialities and always great music. Il Bastardo has an awesome vibe, making it my go-to brunch spot in Chelsea. Service sometimes get a bit messy but still worth your time
Erik CintronJune 21, 2016Fun fun!! Must go for brunch. 45 pre-fix with your own bottle to choose from 5 different ones & additional for 25$. The food was ok. Just something to hold the liquor. Music and crowd was perfect.
Keith HarveyMay 8, 2016everything I ordered here..No more flavored drinks on their menu and out of all things, no more bacon or sausage. A brunch without bacon or sausage is a problem...especially when it is $45 pre-fix.
@JaumePrimeroJuly 16, 2012This restaurant is a great choice for healthy eaters! Order the skirt steak with mixed greens or the chicken paillard with roasted vegetables. The lunch prix fix is a good value for $15.- The Corcoran GroupJuly 9, 2013A club-like brunch spot with a great all you can drink option. The restaurant gets pretty rowdy in the late afternoon - don't say we didn't warn you!
Cathy CervenkaMarch 1, 2015Beware of the crazy party scene for weekend brunch - it's a bit scary and not for quiet conversation or relaxation with close friends. All you can drink = trouble!
Beaye WilliamsMarch 11, 2016The brunch is great. No longer bottomless but get a personal bottle of champagne and a carafe of oj and its worth it.
Joanne GrimaldiApril 14, 2019It’s loud, and the drinks are pricey- but strong. Def don’t come here for intimate conversations. Dancing & drinking with friends to great music, hell yeah
Great bartenders and staff, generous pours, always friendly, and have an awesome happy hour. brunch on weekends is out of this world.
Bitches Who BrunchOctober 16, 2015The Bitches say: A-. The food could be better, but they hit the mark with a lively party ambiance. Our cups were never empty so we felt that we truly got our money’s worth at this bottomless brunch. Read more
Thida SoeAugust 10, 2013Food is really really good here. The problem is the ambience is so terrible. Sit outside so that the loud club music is at a bearable level and you don't have to witness the dance party at 2pm inside
Andrew HammondFebruary 26, 2017Good here for brunch. The bottles are awesome and good for turning up and it is a turn up atmosphere
Great date spot. Rarely crowded after work, good lighting, 2 for 1 sangria & great tapas. Can't go wrong & won't break the bank.
Drew SApril 25, 2015The rage brunch spot. Feels like Vegas with lack of windows and clocks. You can lose your day here quickly.
Oscar TrellesJuly 18, 2015Great for an inexpensive business lunch. Spacious salon inside and good service.
Chad ByersJanuary 6, 2013Brunch pricing structure is as confusing as a hot girl dating an ugly guy. Two eggs is the same price as a salmon and cream cheese omelette. Oh yea, and adding anything to your eggs will cost you.
Ruben GuerreroApril 13, 2014Went today for the first time, two fights broke out within minutes. Go if you like really cheap brunch and the crowd that follows.
Bridget MinogueApril 15, 2014Great new location (formerly known as Il Bastardo)...huge space & amazing atmosphere!
Thanks every one for the good reviews, stop by any tuesday or wednesday night ask to see the manager "Sherif" for a free first drink. See you
Radairis DiazJanuary 27, 2020Brunch with a club feel to it. Low lighting w/ some space on the floor to dance. No bottomless, instead you get a personal champagne bottle. Expect to pay over $60.
Great place for group dinners! Loved the food, drinks and atmosphere. Get a pitcher of sangria and the goat cheese ravioli.
Glamazon DiariesAugust 16, 2011Hot spot in Chelsea on a Sunday afternoon. Add $18 extra for unlimited drinks. If you have a HUGE party, go here because they can accommodate. If you are looking for intimate convo, don't go here.
Mrs LOctober 3, 2011Used to come here for a good lunch deal and wine when I worked in Chelsea. Get the skirt steak w/salsa verde!
Great outdoor seating. Try the baked eggplant or the veal ragu. If you ask, they have whole wheat pasta.
AmateurConciergeDecember 5, 2015This place is amazing if you're 20, looking to get wasted during the day and in the market for casual encounters. Otherwise, it might be your worst nightmare.
MitchDecember 2, 2015Can't hear anything over the brunch music. Felt like a college atmosphere if you are in that mood.
SparkieSeptember 26, 2012Good enough food for the large enough drinks. Add $20 to any meal for unlimited drinks. Meals range $7-$17
Rafael GarciaOctober 27, 2011Amazing bartender Skiimo makes her wonderful cocktails on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturday's!
AshleyMarch 4, 2019Vibe and music were great, food was okay but overpriced. They sat us late but still made us leave the table at what would have been the 2 hour mark.
The Luxury SpotJanuary 18, 2012#1 brunch spot in the city - the mimosas are big and bottomless - Tanner
Awesome place for brunch... love the mimosas! Be sure to ask for the bread and olive oil too!
Erica BJune 29, 2015No longer bottomless. They sell one large drink in a mason jar for $20. Opt for the bottle of champagne. Music is fun but that's about it.
Black Millenial91November 27, 2015The service was mediocre the food stale. However, the drinks and DJ during Sunday Brunch is Lit. $40 for an Entree and a huge Mimosa, bloody screwdriver, or bottle of champagne.
Colleen MarksJanuary 22, 2012Food is always good, but service has gone downhill. Long waits to place orders/get refills & they diluted the pitchers of mimosas with club soda (and looked embarrassed when we called them out on it).
Lauren BlochMarch 8, 2014Clubby. Fun for the right event. Food not as bad as yelp says. Shrimp pasta was good.
Richard HuntMay 9, 2014Was there for an event in the back room. It was so noisy from the front, we couldn't hear anything going on at our meeting. Service was exceptionally SLOW, food was cold when served.
Danielle AlvarezJune 7, 2015If you're trying to get "wasted" and listen to good music, then this is your spot. But if you're trying to eat - don't do it. Food is horrible. This place is about the scene only.
