“The food was excellent, and the service was great. Sangria was really superb, even though the portions of the food were not so big. The ambiance is so nice and cozy.I'm definitely going back soon!!!!!Parking: Finding a parking spot close to the entrance of the restaurant can be difficult, especially on busy hours like dinner time.“
“Cute little place, but not a huge liqour selection. It is within the main strip of town and walking distance from everything. The bartender, a woman with blonde hair, is very nice and courteous. Right now, they are part chicken wing restaurant, called BSO wings. The restaurant is usually open late, which is excellent for those who work late. The wings tend to be more on the expensive side, but all sauces are made in-house, and they are GOOD. I tried a spicy maple type sauce on my wings, and they were to die for. I could have drank the sauce.“
“Iv been going to this place for over 10 years and it’s by far my number one spot! Always a fantastic night out for any age and for families too. Chris, you and your team are top notch with your service, food and atmosphere! Thank you for a great time each time!“
“My first time dining here and it was a 10/10 experience, my friends and I were elated!! Food was served hot and fresh, large portions and friendly service — it was amazing! We sat in the outdoor sitting area, it was so great watching people come and go as we enjoyed our meals and chatted. I got the Chicken Parm, it was soo huge and filling. I highly recommend coming here — I look forward to visiting again!Kid-friendliness: Saw some families coming in and dining which was pretty sweet to see!“
“100% SOLD ALL. THE. TIME. This is my go-to spot when I want to have something a little special and the price point fits within my budget. No matter the dish, it always hits the spot and I'm always pleased that I'm paying for a dish that isn't outrageous compared to other restaurants in the area that are serving similar items. I also appreciate the service - everyone is friendly ans offers great suggestions. Specials are always worth visiting again and again. GO!!“
“AMAZING EXPERIENCEThe hostess and manager were kind enough to seat us despite a late arrival a few minutes after the kitchen was scheduled to close. This superior hospitality was our theme throughout the evening. The server ANFERNEE was prompt, professional, and polite while attending all of our needs. TEXAS-sized portions reminded us back home. Delicious food, tasty cocktails, and wonderful music made this a night to remember.Vegetarian options: The jerk cauliflower was spicy and delicious. The asparagus was roasted to perfection. The mashed potatoes were buttery, creamy goodness.“
“Fabulous! You could spend so much money in here and never feel unhappy about it. Totally vegan it's actually quite large with lots of places to sit and just plants everywhere. if I had more money, I would buy myself every single plant and item they have here. lovely food, lovely staff, highly recommend! please support your neighborhood, vegan place.“
“Thank you for helping me to create memories that will last a lifetime. My family got together after my son's dedication. It was incredible. We had fun and broke bread.My parents were over the moon. Such a great time. Thanks for always providing great food and excellent service.“
“we were celebrating my friend's birthday and our server Nahid N was amazing!!! he went above and beyond to make sure everything was good from the drinks to to the food to our cake and birthday song. he made my friends very nice and very special and that's all I can ask for. it was a 10/10 experience and the food was amazing and the atmosphere too. Nahid N you are a star :)“
“Having traveled all the way from Canada, our visit to this restaurant was truly extraordinary. The service stood out immediately, with our waitress providing insightful menu explanations and excellent recommendations for our group of four, which turned out to be spot on.The food itself was outstanding. From appetizers to main courses, each dish was bursting with flavor and spices that made every bite a delight. Eating with our hands added an extra layer of enjoyment, engaging all our senses in the experience. Even those in our group who weren't vegan were thoroughly impressed.The restaurant's cozy and welcoming atmosphere added to the overall charm. The local artwork on the walls and the vibrant colors created a warm and inviting ambiance.We'll definitely be returning to this hidden gem. The combination of excellent service, delicious food, and inviting atmosphere makes it a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!“
“I only had the mozzarella sticks but they were probably best I've had... I really wonder if they're made in- house or store brought.Enjoyed the setup and the very attentive room service, everyone was very nice and friendly.The drinks were good!“
“Have you ever found a gem and never wanted to share it? Lol, that's how I feel about Clay. Talk about perfect setting, food, and service. Absolutely stunning place in the heart of Harlem. Cool neighborhood, too. Highly recommend. Plan ahead because there could be a wait to get a reservation. Love this place.“
“Great atmosphere, and Eli, the owner and a very friendly guy, does everything right when it comes to taking care of his customers. I stopped by here for several glasses of wine and a plate of shrimp mango ceviche, which was quite balanced between the citrus and sweet notes. The atmosphere inside is very cozy.We will be returning another night when one of our favorite bands stops by here to play some music.“
“I love love love this place. Best steak tacos around!! Caesar is an amazing bartender! Keeps my glass full and cold! ❤️Whether it’s a hard day or a great day I always leave this place smiling ?Catch us here for amazing taco Tuesdays ?“
“Thank you for not disappointing. My friends and I had a girls' night, and they had not known this existed. They were happy with their meals and impressed with the place.I had been here twice, and the 3rd time was still a charm.Gives the other Cuban places a run for their money.“
“$25 cover (unsure if this price changes per booking) for Amazing Band (sound needs a bit of work) but a great band knows how to work with what they got and bring the house down. I wish the tables faced the stage because how it is is killing my neck. Although drinks are on the sweeter side with a bit of food it helps to alter the taste buds (or wait for the ice to melt a bit. It always helps.) The small bites leave a bit to be desired but they do the trick if you've eaten a meal elsewhere and are just hankering for a small bite. Overall a great spot for an intimate or party night out (depends on the band really). Spots 100% worth a trek from all the way yonder.“
“Where do I begin. Our visit to the Shannon Rose was outstanding. From the nice young lady at the door to our server Edgar who went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. When we arrived Trivia was going on, and it was such a delight watching everyone participating in the game. We arrived wanting drinks to end the night, and The Shannon Rose did night disappoint. Our server Edgar was very kind, and very knowledgeable about what we should order, plus very handsome. Kudos to the bartender the drinks were delish!!!! We will DEFINITELY go back for the Trivia Tuesday and for dinner and drinks. What a fun way to end the evening. I hope that the next visit will be as enjoyable as the last one. We hope to have Edgar as our server. Thank you..Thank you.. Thank you!Parking: Tons of parking space. There are extra spaces at the Target parking lot.“
“Had a great evening at the Shannon Rose. Their monthlong celebration of St Patrick’s day and the Irish cuisine were just what we needed on a cold, rainy day. And our server Misty was a genuine pleasure to deal with. Excellent recommendations on both food and drinks.“
“My experience at the restaurant was a bit overwhelming due to the noise and crowded atmosphere, especially on a Friday night with live music. Despite the tight arrangement of tables making it difficult to move around, the food and service were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the vegetarian dish with pasta and plan on returning for it. My friends also loved their salmon dishes and couldn't stop raving about how delicious it was. Overall, while the ambiance was not to my liking, the quality of the food and service made up for it.“
“A must visit for all my family and friends who come to visit me in NY. Pure essence of Harlem, spectacular atmosphere & impeccable service. Without a doubt, it should be in the NY guides. Thank you always for your availability. Gracias infinitas! ??“
“Nice cozy dark place. The entrance to the restaurant was..interesting and the atmosphere is pretty dark. The food was great. We had the breakfast platter and the bacon tasted like pork belly. The pancake has more of a cake taste and was thick and airy. It was certainly a unique unexpected blend of flavors but good.“
“Whether part of a group or on a solo visit, welcome is given. The staff are attentive, engaging, friendly and humorous. They truly make an effort to ensure that the customers return. The kitchen is tiny, yet the food is tasty.Dietary restrictions: When you share your dietary restrictions with the staff, they listen and advise which dishes are suitable. It is a relief to be heard and accommodated.“
“This is a great bar for tasty drinks and fun events! I definitely recommend!…. Update 2023. THIS PLACE IS STILL THE BEST!!! Very cool owner and bartenders. The vibe is fun and comfortable. They have days we’re it’s chill and some were its really lit. Celebrated my bday here as well and loved it. Thank you 512“
“This a 5 star review because it hit all of the check marks. You simply cannot get the same value you will get here anywhere else.Firstly, the staff is family, and very welcoming and accommodating. They Truly care about the restaurant, its legacy and there foodA very comfortable environment with 80's/90's country music playing and a homey feeling dining room. I felt like I went my cousins for dinner and coffee.Our waitress was one of the owners and helped me select some craft brews they offered. Very generous and appreciated.The Buffalo Wings are excellent. Cooked right and in a thinner sauce with a little zing but not overpowering.Our dinners were the Godfather Trio (Veal, Shrimp Parm and Eggplan Rollantini) and the 16oz Sizzling steak.The Italian Trio was a good portion and had a nice sauce, very filling and a very reasonable price.The Steak was better than some steakhouses and "higher-end" restaurants that like to charge $40-$60 for it.The steak was PERFECT! And for a price point under $30 is one of the best bargains you can find! Flavor was amazing and cooked expertly!We finished with coffee and the Chocolate Mousse Cake & Cheesecake. Well worth it and again; a price you can't beat.We even took home dinners for work the next day. It was that good.This is a Gem and a throw back to how things used to be and should be. Where your welcomed in and treated like a guest in a home and fed a wonderful meal.***Keep in mind - Cash Only But the have anATM on site. Not a big deal.Head in and enjoy. I'll definitely be back!!!“
“Have not been here in years. Service was amazing. Our server Tim was the best. The owner was so friendly and attentive. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Atmosphere was family friendly and great for all ages. Very reasonably priced. Bonus- upstairs if you want to host a party. We will definitely be going back. We highly recommend the Firehouse“
“Food was good. The service was not. Our waitress did not smile much. She was playing with her cell phone when I approached to the service desk with computer and other billing stuff. She name starts with a C.I observed how she treated other customers, she was not warm nor smile either. I told myself, it was not me.“
“2024, the year someone, anyone finally got me to read fiction consistently for an extended period of time. Acknowledgements to @tenanaan for her forever reaching third eye into the souls of readers. She and the staff at @thelitbar always push the envelope to find word seekers' arrangements of pages that defy their norms and push their brains into a separate reality. This morning I completed this work by the great #VictorLavalle . I somewhat read this book out of order after having read #LoneWoman January 20-January 25. I initially had not selected this work out of a group of 7 that Tenaja gave me to choose from. I thought I had already seen this on #AppleTv+. I selected Lone Woman, loved that, only to discover that, in reality, the series I thought I saw was not #The Changeling , it was M. Night Shyamalan's: Servant. The Changeling is a pounding thriller that will keep you guessing incorrectly from beginning to end. It will capture your attention with a rolling villain in all aspects of this real life/scifi/real life saga. Who is the bad guy/bad girl? Who should be arrested, hung, or given the Presidential Medal of Freedom? The question is: Who will make it? Is making it even an option? What is a win? Does "Happily ever after exist?It's worth stopping at The Lit. Bar to visit, read, drink, buy books that typical book sellers aren't selling. There is nothing in the world like being introduced to a world that has coexisted in the world you live in, without knowing it was there the whole damn time. Plan a trip to The Bronx, if you are already in the Bronx, make it your destination for new reading interest and a great reading vibe.“
“Neighborhood spot..That can have Versatile Musicans/Comedians/Host(s) etc .show up and share their talent.DJ(s) on any given night.. sharing their Unique Skills after 11pDance the Night away...hopefully with your Date or Mate.. you already came with****“
“The only issue was trying to get someone to speak English on the phone when I called. After talking to 3 different females, the fourth one spoke English.And the valley people lost my car keys ticket. I had to go thru all the keys to fi d mine.“
Seafood • $$
“Crab Island exceeded all expectations with their delightful Cajun seafood offerings and exceptional service. Despite high anticipation, every dish surpassed our hopes, bursting with authentic flavors that transported us to the heart of Cajun cuisine. The friendly staff added to the warmth of the experience, offering knowledgeable recommendations and ensuring our every need was met with a smile. From the perfectly seasoned boils to the succulent grilled seafood, every bite was a testament to the chef's skill and dedication to quality. Without a doubt, Crab Island stands as a beacon of Cajun culinary excellence, deserving of every praise.“
“They do not sell food, beer and wine only. They make a mean frozen sangria! I never have a problem getting a seat and the bartender remembered me! Cool spot.Wheelchair accessibility: You can get into the market, there are no stairs. It might be a little difficult to navigate once inside. The spaces between the different vendors can be narrow.“
“We came with a group to celebrate a great friends promotion…which was also a surprise wedding proposal for her. Marc was extremely accommodating and Kristina, who was our server as well as the manager was beyond amazing. She was on point and went well beyond to make our experience awesome…all while handling another large group. I cannot express enough how thankful we are and what a great experience we had! Thank you Blackjacks!!!“
“Why aren’t more people talking about this place??!!!??My friends and I went tonight night for dinner and drinks because we saw they had the speakeasy and we love that vibe.We decided to sit at the bar. Immediately, the bartender, Steven/Stephen, starts telling us about the place and it’s rich history. He was so kind and helpful the whole night. He made sure he connected with us for a great experience.We ordered espresso martinis, because obviously. They were INCREDIBLE. You can get it with or without Baileys which was nice. We even got decaf espresso. The level of sweetness was just right. The foam was foaming. They were truly a treat. 10/10. I also ordered a Tiramisu martini which came with a lady finger on top. This was a little stronger but still nice and creamy with great foam. 9/10.The food was absolutely DIVINE. He told us the food is made fresh because they don’t have a freezer..?!?!!? Impressive if true. We started off with the Arancini because they are my religion. Mouthwatering. The rice was perfectly cooked. The crispy outside was amazing. The flavors melded together well. 10/10. I had the Spicy Rigs. It was made with homemade pasta…!!!!!!!!!! I am not a pasta girly but when it’s homemade…consider me a pasta girly. The sauce was smooth and creamy. The tomatoes really came through. I wish the Calabrian chilis poked through a little more for more of a spice. However, the flavors were still balanced. 9/10.The vibes were immaculate! We got there about 7. A DJ started playing music around 9:30. It turned into a club vibe which was shocking. The music was blaring so it did become hard to hear each other. The music was still good though.They do have HH Monday - Friday which seems like really great deals on drinks/food.I would 100000000% come back here and recommend it to anyone. I hope to try their sister restaurant soon, Hudson Prime Steakhouse, which is the only steakhouse in Irvington apparently!!!For me to live in Westchester all my life and to not have heard of this place before is crazy! It was so good.“
“My friends in New Jersey eat so well! ! Really enviousIt was lunch time when we went and there were not too many people.I never thought that Lunch could be so rich and delicious! !The side dishes provided were all so delicious that it touched my taste buds.✅Galbi StewI really like beef bone soup! ! The flavor is rich but not greasy!It feels so refreshing yet delicious! !✅Charcoal BBQ BossamThe first time I tasted this dish, I was amazed!The aroma of the pork belly is enhanced a lot after being deep-fried~Pair it with the combination of cabbage leaves and Kimchi oysters !If you can’t finish it, you can take it away! Stir fry pork belly with kimchiAnother delicious dish hahahaha! !✅Extremely Spicy Pig FeetThe charcoal-grilled pig's trotters have their own aroma! Then make it Korean spicySpicy and refreshing! The texture is glutinous and super delicious! !I could eat another plate of this collagen hahaha! !If you are nearby, you can have lunch or something.I feel very satisfied! ! Hope you like it too~“
“I adore this place. I have ordered the margarita pizza with broccoli for delivery many times, and it's probably the best pizza I have found in the Bronx. Wood-fired, soft yet grilled crust, fresh mozzarella, really good tomato sauce, and generous with the toppings. Dining in is also a great experience -- it's warm and homey inside, and you feel like you have left the grind of daily life and are settling in for a festive, really good meal. Doesn't feel like an Americanized Italian restaurant but rather a small pocket of Italy in the Bronx. As for the rest of the menu, top notch Caesar salad, really good banana bread pudding, scallop/lentil appetizer is good but best to share because it can be a lot of the same flavor and filling for an appetizer. Must try place in the Bronx!“
“The best pork cutlet restaurant. The best pork cutlet on the outside. I tried all of New Jersey looking for delicious pork cutlet. This is the best. I highly recommend it.Mulnaengmyeon is said to be a bit salty because it is made from pocha, but it was a bit salty to eat as food, so it was just that. The noodles were chewy and the soup had a thin ice.The boiled pork is perfectly moist and delicious. Highly recommended.The water ribs were truly disappointing. It was $45 for a small dish, but it felt like I was eating $45 bean sprouts. All I got were 10 pieces of marbled beef that looked like they were piled high on top.Inside is literally just a mountain of bean sprouts and nothing to eat.There are almost no other vegetables.Humanly speaking, that price is a waste of money. $45 is a rip-off.Still, I will go back to eat the pork cutlet stew.“
“I've been going to Rumba Cubana for years and I've been to most of their locations. The food is always good, served hot, and the customer service is always great. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience (and I'm really picky when going out to eat)“
“One of my favorite places on the UWS, Morningside Heights. Dining here for years now and always have a great meal! Food always fresh, delicious and the staff is great. I do enjoy the 72nd Street and Central Park location but I’ll always love the original.“
“Very nice spot in Harlem. great food, Awesome staff, great ambiance.Vegetarian options: Garlic noodles, Broccoli, Rice, Corn & PotatoesKid-friendliness: Fun smoke Fish Bowls Lemonade with candy. Funnel fries and Oreo cookies.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp leading into restaurant, wheelchair accessible bathrooms, spacious restaurant seating!“
“Specific beers on tap, cans, bottles and oh craft crawlers! It is a beer only place with amazing specific selections but the food caught my attention 3 times I was there to get beer and was like : "Omg let me get over thi a first! ". Then tried the selection and it was as impressive! Happy hour oysters really great taste an f great deal. Call ahead to check what is the special for it. So good sometimes they sold out on oyster $1 per shell.“
“We went for my dad's 75th birthday last night after doing a pub crawl down McClean Avenue. The service was INCREDIBLE!! They let me drop off cake and balloons and gifts early, they didn't lose anything, and the balloons were tied to our table upon arrival. The food came out FAST all night and HOT HOT HOT! Everything was perfect. We will definitely be back.“
“We came on a Saturday for a college reunion. They had a live performer who kept a great ambiance. I tried one Spice Mango Daiquiri and ended up having three as it was so refreshing and flavorful. Definitely coming back. Recommended for groupsWheelchair accessibility: It’s on the first floor. Has a ramp by the entrance.“
“I came here on a random late Saturday night with a friend looking for a spot to get a drink and maybe have some luck in finding a place still open to serve some appetizers. It was to our surprise that the kitchen was fully open after 10pm! My friend ordered the Salmon and I got the Ceasar salad which was very delicious, however, I regretted not ordering the mofongo. People that ordered around me had me craving it! The DJ was really good too; played old school music and currents ones. All the servers provided great customer service. What I liked the most was the crowd- it was almost empty and everyone was just living their best life dancing on their chairs and playing games. If you’re young and single looking for a place to meet people; I doubt this is the place. Everyone was in their late 30s and older hanging out after the brunch crowd went on their merry way. I will be going back again with more friends to enjoy good food, good drinks, and good company.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor and plenty of space“
“I am mad at myself for not coming here sooner. The food, drinks, service, ambiance - 10/10. They really did a wonderful job with this place. I haven't been this impressed with a place in a long time! Everything on the menu is delicious and on top of that, the cocktails are very reasonably priced. Cash only - ATM onsite if you forget. We are so happy to find a new place that we love!“
“I am happy to say everything was excellent!! The last time I dined here I was disappointed and stayed away a while but I am so glad everything seems back to normal and it was just a one time off night back then. The homemade chicken soup was piping hot and spectacular like of your Grandmother made it!! The veal franchese was tender and just the right amount of lemon and wine. Broccoli Rabe with garlic and oil delicious not too bitter and not mushy it was made to order and very good. The dessert special was a Irish cannoli that was cannoli cream with Baileys and crème D mint in it and it worked, so delicious. I highly recommend for a fabulous dinner.“
“I really didn't enjoy my time here between the bartender having an amazing hand at cocktails to them sure the food tasted fantastic! Hats to their chef. Natalia (or Natasha i apologize for forgetting) was the best. Definitely will return! Their pistachio-ricotta cake was my TOP fav!“
“I'm surprised that I have been living in the area this long and have not been here until now! Went for the first time today and absolutely loved it. The waitress Melissa was very friendly and helpful. The vibes were as if I were at a rock bar without the drunkards. And the food was incredible! Rony made us the juiciest burgers (even better than what I was craving) and personally came to our table to ask how we were doing. 10/10, definitely recommend!“
“Bob's is the most balanced bar in NY : his cheap beers come with a very serious service. Games are available for free, and the place is spacy enough for you to bring all your friends to get wasted or more. Trustable owner who kept my ID for several days before I realized I lost it while laying l the floor. Thanks Bob's!“
“We had a great first experience! Deena and Laura are very attentive and made us feel welcome. It was hard to make a decision with the vast menu, but we both landed on good choices. Here's my Englebert Pumperdink with thick, fresh sliced turkey breast, ham, bacon, onion and tomato. Breaded mushrooms with horseradish sauce are great...and my friend loved his very tender shell/strip steak with an enormous onion ring and a side of mixed sweet potato fries and wedge fries. My favorite though was the side of garlic mash and gravy! Definitely worthy of a trip back to Horsefeathers ☺️“
“Ordered a quick snack... Chicken empanadas... Crispy and stuffed... And the poblano molé inside and on the side was savory sweet and delicious.So good. Need more next time!The loaded nachos were definitely loaded....And a very good size.Took less than 20 minutes from order to delivery.Next time will be trying the birria tacos!Thank you!“
