“Wow! After looking at many places on Columbus that just didn’t thrill us, we were SO happy to find the incredibly delicious Mexican cuisine at Nina’s last night I had the Cochinita Pibil (with an orange habanero salsa on the side that will let you know who’s boss…) and my old friend had Enchiladas Mole with chicken. Excellent and authentic food with warm, friendly staff, and a great bar selection with many tequilas. Nina’s is great! Reasonable too! Glad to give credit where it’s due to this 7mo old establishment that I hope stays for many years! Will return for more!“

“What’s to Share. Claire and Nikki and Cahir are rockstars. Foods is good, service is the best I’ve seen next to me pouring rockstars to those who want to drink. If only you could See my shoulders wiggle and rock right now, you’d get it If you don’t go get you don’t know how to live.“

“Was in Printers Alley this weekend with my parents for the first time staying in a hotel nearby and found this place really nice and chill with good food, loads of TVs for games with a big NFL game on while we were in - We sat at the bar as a lot of the tables were reserved but Thomas was so nice and took great care of us while checking in regularly with us to make sure we were okay while also giving my parents a laugh and recommendations on what to do around the city. Can't fault this bar at all and will definitely be back next time in NYC!“

“This was our third visit to The Splendid and it continues to impress. Food is delicious, service is outstanding (thank you Jenna and Mickey), and the vibe is fun and fresh. We visit NYC several times a year and this is the only restaurant we return to regularly.“

“Had a fantastic experience at Haswell Green’s. Fun drinks, great service …will absolutely be back for happy hour!“

“Really solid sports bar on the UES. Great drink deals and the food is delicious. They have super crispy tater tots, onion rings, and fries. We usually order the buffalo chicken wrap or burger - both are good. Service can be a little slower (they don’t have a huge staff) but everyone is really nice. Ambience is good also.“

“Great place happening lots of fun good food n drinks Lov it“

“5 STAR 🌟 service yesterday food & Drinks outstanding my waitress was awesome. Beautiful place beautiful atmosphere.“

“Great space to have a fundraiser and birthday party. Staff and owner are so wonderful and helpful. Great prices for cocktails and beers/drinks“

“Nice little Bar/Restaurant within walking distance from the Museum of Natural History. Outdoor seated is covered to keep diners out of the sun or rain. Tables are very small, not ideal for big parties or for families with strollers.

Drinks (The Dude) were very well made (strong!) and Downeast Cider on tap was an added bonus.

Bathrooms are small but clean and sufficient.

Double Smash burger was smaller than expected but it was very tasty as were the fries that came with it. Hot honey chicken sandwich was delicious (bigger than the burger) and the truffle fries were very flavorful.“

“I came here specifically for the Espresso Martini, and it did not disappoint. The Classic was excellent, and the Peanut Butter Espresso Martini was arguably the best I’ve had in NYC so far. My bartender, David, was an absolute rock star. He was attentive, professional, personable, and genuinely leaned in to deliver an exceptional experience. This is a wonderful establishment with top-tier service. I can’t wait to return!“

“Friendly staff…..but when the place is busy you’re going to wait“

“First time there and it was a fun time!“

“Amazing place, great atmosphere. Food was delicious and the cocktails were lethal. Thank you to the staff, we made some brilliant memories!“

“Chill sports bar with good food and drinks. Came here with no reservation to watch the Knick’s playoff game, and was able to be seated right away. Plenty of TVs to watch from. The patty melt, Caesar salad, and onion rings were good. The West Side Story drink kind of tastes like cherry medicine. The Pornstar Martini was very yummy. Service was quick initially but became slow as the restaurant filled up. The bathrooms were out of soap and toilet paper early on in the night.“

“The Throwback is hands down the best sports bar on the Upper West Side, and honestly, one of the best hangs in all of NYC.

From the moment you walk in, you feel it, this place has a soul. The vibe is warm, welcoming, and genuinely fun. It is the kind of spot where you sink into your seat and never want to leave. The menu is solid, the drink selection is great (cocktails, beers, you name it), and the staff is in a league of their own. They don't just serve you, they make you feel like you've been invited into their home.

For sports fans, The Throwback is an absolute paradise. TVs everywhere, great sightlines no matter where you sit, and an energy that makes every game feel like an event. And the memorabilia? It's INCREDIBLE. The walls alone will stop you in your tracks.

A huge shoutout to Brit and Alex, who pour their hearts into this place and have built something truly special for the neighborhood. Whether you are coming in for a casual night out, a big game, or planning a private party, The Throwback delivers every single time. Do yourself a favor — go. You won't regret it. 🏆🍹“

“Emphasis on the friendly bartenders ;) Come check out Music Tuesdays @Blondies starting 1/16!“

“I have very fond memories here, it was like a little home from home for me while I was bi Atlantic for 6 years, working on the same block as the Pig There are lots of “Irish pubs” in the vicinity, although this is the only one that felt like a real pub in the UK rather than a novelty in New York Hopefully I will be back again one day! Thanks for great times when I was missing home 🇬🇧 xxx“

“Top tier! My friend and I were searching online for a Mexican restaurant and decided to give this place a try. We arrived just as the kitchen was about to close, but they still welcomed us and served our food. The shrimp tacos were absolutely delicious, I even went back for seconds lol. My friend ordered the loaded nachos and she loved them too. The drinks was on point, It was our first time there, and the entire experience was amazing. Definitely looking forward to coming back!🌮✨😊“

“construction guy here. I’ve been working in the city for 30 years and have bought lunch every work day, in all the burroughs. I can honestly say…You can’t get a better cheesesteak anywhere else!!!“

“Great spot for watching World Cup , sat on curbside and watch the game beer selections is great same as the food but the best part is services Hunter is so kind and took a good care of us . If you want to hang out in Bedford this is the spot get the outside seat and watch the game with millions dollars views .“

“Great service! Amazing food! Simply feels like home!!!!!“

“Sehr gute Tische, aber keine brauchbaren Schläger. Tischmiete sehr teuer (bis zu 59 $ die Stunde), Dienstags ab 9 pm allerdings nur 9 $.“

“Rafe is awesome. What a lovely guy, put up with me and my partner for longer than he should have had to. Made the last day of our first holiday to New York great xx“

“Mellers is great! My friends and I came here for multiple football playoff games and other sporting events. Everyone is very nice especially the owner who is there and greeting and checking in on folks. Great neighborhood spot with good beer and food. We are back often!“

“Travelled to NYC from London just after new year with my wife and son and researched before we came where to catch the game and this place was everywhere when I looked up places to watch Arsenal, I had to come and experience it and was not disappointed! extremely welcomed by the locals and regulars, beautiful atmosphere and very friendly topped off by the excellent bar staff and of course the legendary Christiano. I could tell just from 1 visit O'Hanlons is a very community orientated bar who do so much for the people around them“

“Their seafood and 32oz drinks are great!!! I recommend stopping by.“

“Out of town and looking for a game, this is your place! Especially in this time where safety is important, this outdoor atmosphere is wonderful. Food trucks to take care of you hunger and a bar to quench your thirst. LetsgoBucs!“

“Great staff and food. Spacious too!“

“Feliz! Celebrando Año Nuevo!“

“This is one of my favorite spots to grab a beer and burger. Just a short walk from Washington Square Park, it's the perfect spot to hit after a day of shopping. Rocco's has a killer happy hour! I sipped on a cold beer and an espresso martini. The burger was seriously one of the best I’ve had in ages—cooked perfectly with toasted buns, and the fries were nicely portioned. The sports bar vibe here is awesome; the place is decked out with all kinds of sports gear, and in the corner, there's a nostalgic basketball game playing. Definitely a spot to chill with friends or catch the game with a brew.“

“The first thing that hits you is the space itself. The layout of the inside bar is positioned perfectly to flood the entire room with gorgeous, natural light. It gives the whole venue a warm, vibrant glow that makes it genuinely impossible not to smile the second you take a seat. It completely redefines the typical neighborhood bar aesthetic, trading the usual dark, moody pub feel for something bright, open, and incredibly uplifting.
What truly sets Wilka’s apart is its heartbeat: it is a women’s sports only bar. This focus creates an absolute powerhouse of a crowd. There is a beautiful, shared camaraderie in the room—everyone is united by a love for the game and a passion for supporting women’s sports. The energy during a match is electric, inclusive, and fiercely supportive. It’s exactly the kind of intentional space the city needed, and the community response proves just how special it is.
A bar can have great lighting, but it’s the people who give it a soul. The bartending team here is phenomenal—packed with genuine kindness, infectious excitement, and a refreshing eagerness to make you feel welcome.
A massive shoutout to Alyssa, who is an absolute standout behind the pine. Beyond making a stellar drink, she is a huge Panic! At The Disco fan. Striking up a conversation with her about music makes for some of the most fun, engaging, and memorable banter you’ll find anywhere on the Lower East Side.
Wilka’s isn’t just a place to grab a drink; it’s a community hub with a massive heart. Whether you are a die-hard sports fan or just want to surround yourself with great people in a beautiful space, please visit this place! You’ll come for the unique concept, but you’ll stay for the warmth, the laughs, and the unforgettable atmosphere.“

“Saturday karaoke party rocks!“

“Loved everything about this spot! The vibe is so chill and we really liked the aesthetic and setup. The staff is very friendly and big shoutout and thanks to Tim Powell for your excellent customer service! We can't wait to come back soon!“

“We have been using Hair of the Dog for about 4years now and is really impressed by the quality of work they do on our dog. Very convenient to every family needs. Always willing to help you with your concerns and always give us the best advice when we ask. We use Carolina who is absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend her and the company for your pets needs.“

“Amazing service and so much history from the day and days following 9-11. I highly recommend everyone come here once in their lives.“

“I absolutely loved this place! As a Geordie, I thought this would be a good place to watch the qarabag match and I was shocked at how amazing it is! The atmosphere, the decoration. Just everything was incredible! I would totally recommend to visit if you are a football fan especially a Newcastle United fan.“
