Love this modern, yet rustic restaurant. The Barcelona cocktail was amazing and the everything we ordered was extremely tasty. We had the pulled pork tacos, short rib burger, and Cajun burger. Yum!

Place was empty, but plenty of staff at inside and rooftop bars... overall, loved it and felt very Brooklyn-ish with the industrial vibe and unique drinks and American foods (on point, but standard)!!

Fried chicken, duck quesadillas, bread and maple butter, anything with tuna, shrimp curry. I tasted all of these at dinner with friends and everything was great!

Delicious food and full bar. It's not too loud on a weekend night, which is always a plus for me. You can also eat at the bar if it's busy, just ask.

if you like cider, go for the black cherry gluten-free one! so yummy! the artichoke and red pepper dip is amazing as well - great for a light app with drinks!

Try the Wagyu burger! The patio views are pretty epic.

For what you would expect the food is relatively inexpensive. The salad portions are huge. Tried the Guinness cake and it's now my favorite cake ever.
Jeff SDecember 16, 2012
Awesome location and ambiance in this stylish conversion of the old Armory but the menu is less inspired. It's more like a Friday's than the fine dining that deserves to be here.
Rebekah CornellOctober 29, 2014
The food was absolutely amazing and the venue is beautiful! The prices are very reasonable as well!
Nicole FormicaJanuary 2, 2015
Great atmosphere! Be sure to try the bourbon apple cocktail. All plates are quite tasty, get a few and share with friends.
Robert GoldenJuly 15, 2014
48 different draft beers to choose from. House salad is good. Scallop dish is amazing. Nice crowd & atmosphere...

The corned beef and hash was really good. But service is super slow. The restaurant decor is very modern and fancy.
Kaleigh SJanuary 9, 2013
True, the menu isn't as progressive as the decor would lead you to believe, but that doesn't mean the food isn't good. Try the duck quesadillas with marscapone and cranberries for something different.

Just about everything! Brussel Sprouts if you can believe it! Great selection of local beers!
James CastiglioneAugust 24, 2014
Steamed buns, All American Burger, Braised Short Ribs. Oh My! Great beer selection.

First bite of Kobe burger defined my whole meal: spectacular. Try Thai chicken wraps as well.
Carrie WeiseJanuary 9, 2020
Had cauliflower for app, as well as lettuce wraps. Lettuce wraps were delightful. Had the BALT for my entree and it was ok.

If you're looking for a light bite with your date, get the Steamed Buns & Veggie Fritters!

Cocktails taste like water :/ stick with wine 🍷...the food is good and pairs better with it !
Mark StrongDecember 30, 2015
Excellent beer selection and the fried chicken was delicious
Michael SmithOctober 26, 2012
The tall tables are no good for tall people. With your feet on the "footrest" your knees hit the table, and feet on the floor your shins hit the footrest.
Kathy Barry-WagnerJuly 20, 2013
Omg.fabulous food! And Matt is the best waiter ever! Best accent and soo charming!

Outside deck. Kristy the bartender. Calamari, either the appetizer or the salad.
Kartik SathappanSeptember 23, 2014
The black mojito is the only great thing in the menu. The duck quesadilla appetizer is good. Everything else is average. Burgers are greasy and scallops are just wrong. Also the veggie burger is awful
Matthew AnthonyMay 9, 2015
Order all your cocktails from Jackie. You won't regret it.
Matthew FergusonJuly 14, 2019
Food and rooftop views are fantastic.
Jean RyanMarch 19, 2013
Matthew is the best. Don't let his British accent distract you from the menu.
Jill HutchisonMarch 4, 2013
Tempura green beans. Truffle dipping sauce. Enough said.
Ryan PeckSeptember 2, 2016
Get out on the roof top! Beautiful up there.
Elijah WadeMay 10, 2016
Awesome staff. Great food.

Great dark mojitos but bartenders are not so friendly.

Rooftop terrace is great for drinks

Beware the snooty crowd. Bartenders were pretty awesome though.
Frankie GDecember 22, 2012
Nice place, extremely weak drinks. Jack and coke...too much coke....Bacardi and coke too much coke !!!
Susan LeeApril 28, 2013
Food was good, but service was great. Busy wknd bar crowd makes it a bit too noisy for a romantic meal.
