    They actually have a sand floor. No joke. And the entire place kind of smells like a mix of fish and beach in the best way possible.

    Lobster rolls are crack! It's a great spot if you want to be in the city and getaway from the city at the same time! Helps when u feel sand under ur feet as well!

    A sand floor, giant fish tanks, surfer memorabilia and big plastic tiki cups full of dangerous, tasty, libations. Next time you crave a zombie or a genuine OB vibe, go here. -Jacqueline Lombard, Top C

    Cocktails are great: try tiki ones! Calamari are a good starter. Lobster roll is a must, with chicken shrimps tacos. Finally, the tiramisu to "assemble" is very curious and well made.

    Surf bar fries were awesome, shoestring French fries with honey and sea salt. We ended up eating two batches.

    Very nice bar in Brooklyn where sand is on the floor and is a getaway from the city! Cocktails look nice and their menu has a Hawaiian touch

    The lemonade and mojitos are great! The atmosphere of this place is beyond amazing as well as the decoration! One of my favorite places in NYC.

    Frozen cocktails are awesome. I got the Mudslide which is basically like a huge icy coffee milkshake. Lovely.

    Fun decor and atmosphere! Order the surf fries. Awesome! Waiters are friendly but seem a little confused - sent us some extra orders a few times!

    Fun vibe to chill out with a good selection of frozen drinks for those hot summer days. The low rating is probably for the food.

    Probably not someplace you would want to frequently, but it's good for some kitsch every now and again. Try a piña colada and feel the sand between your toes.

    Honey fries rock. Bottom of the tray gets excessively sweet though, but that is to be expected 😋

    There are worse things you can be doing than having a piña colada in a bar with a sand floor. What they are, I don't know

    N-Sider favorite: Our must is the Surf Bar for their frozen Mojito's – slushee's for adults. They load 'em up with mint and are delicious.

    When it's so hot outside you should seat on a surf bench, feet in the sand, drinking frozen margarita here!

    Cool atmosphere and the signature drinks are delicious. The food was unimpressive, the salsa is obvious shelf bought. The clam chowder was watery and greasy tasting.

    Slightly gimmicky Hawaiian themed bar with sand underfoot, but reasonably priced drinks
