Carmen da SilvaJune 27, 2011Gimmie coffee and good burger happy hour specials (brunch could be better). Read more
Tarah FeinbergJuly 19, 2011Fresh, delicious oysters, served with bloody mary cocktail sauce. Read more
Tekne VisionApril 18, 2011Lavender creme brûlée is a yes. Subtle, but lavender-y on the first bite. Yum!
Apparently the chocolate ganache cake is amazing, but they didn't have it when I was here (the mustard greens were the best I've ever eaten though!)
BrooklynMuseumDecember 11, 2009Staff Pick! Caroline (Design): The kind of place where someone might propose marriage or where you may meet the in-laws. Nice if you have time, $$, a hot date..
The lavender Creme brûlée is the perfect end to an excellent meal.
Leah EllisSeptember 13, 2010Service is unreliable, based on several visits. But salads are always amazing. Fries top notch.
Carly DahlJune 13, 2017Saw a roach toddling across the bar for a good 10 minutes before the bartender noticed ☹️
Jon KeeganAugust 12, 2009the scallops appetizer is incredible as is the skate entree. my wife loved the James Revenge cocktail. consistently impressive food!
Jay BreezyMarch 27, 2016Unbelievably bad service. Great food!. Got 2 appetizers wrong from the 1 I ordered and had to fight to make sure I didn't pay for it. Worst bartender. Looked like she couldn't peel an apple.
Nikole H.August 15, 2010The chilled cucumber soup was delicious. Do not fear the sea urchin vinegrette. It makes it.
Percy CockswainSeptember 14, 2015Excellent brunch spot. Disappointing and expensive for dinner. The pork bellies were undercooked and gelatinous...gross.
Nicole TaylorJanuary 9, 2010Best happy hour prices in BK. 5:30-6:30 half off burgers and draft beers!
Es DeeDecember 25, 2009If you like great food, with a neighborhood vibe this is it! I've never been disappointed.
Chris PetesciaAugust 25, 2012Be prepared to wait... Slow service. Go when you are ready to take it VERY easy
