Bar & Grill near Palisades Park

“GOOD RESTAURANT! I went here with my friends and we liked the atmosphere right away. The view was beautiful (it was on the fourth floor), and the waiter was very nice. The food didn't take too long, and the manager checked on us to see how we were doing. I could tell that they really wanted us to have a good night, and I appreciated that they let us sit there the entire night and talk after our meal. I felt very welcome. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to chill at after a hard day of work...but, I think they also do parties. This is definitely someplace I would go again to with friends.“

“Went there on a Friday night. It took a little while for us to be seated. But once we got seated, our waiter was very attentive and courteous. The food was great and so were the drinks. We had lobster spaghetti and shrimp & crab ravioli. For the drink, i had the gold digger cocktail. It's a lychee martini, ifykyk. The DJ was a vibe. They played afrobeat, R&B/hip-hop, reggae, and Spanish music. It's very loud in there, not a place for convo, but more for turning up. Definitely will be coming back.“

“Amazing food service and staff! Will make this one of my favorite places to frequent!“

“Great food y great drink and great service by Lucy I definitely recommend this place“

“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!“

“Had a great late breakfast complete with Mimosas and Alfie’s Amber Ale- all served by our awesome bartender Niamh from Ireland!!!“

“Great place Wonderful food Good service“

“loved the guac here, seemed so fresh, and it comes with plaintains too“

“outstanding restaurant and bar. Everything was on point. Service, food, drinks. Wait staff was perfect. Definitely recommended.“

“Chicken pot pie! 👍🏻 the staff is very friendly! Great place!“

“A lovely dinner outing for a casual or special occasion. Went with a group of nine and our server, host and all others were courteous and great guides for our dining experience.

Top recommendations Mac and Cheese. Oysters. Fries were beautifully done. Mains include carbonara, an array of steaks, chicken parm and various sides. A nice espresso martini. Only issue was we overdid it and failed to reserve room for dessert but enjoyed a lovely limencello finish.“

“The atmosphere is such a fun vibe.

The service is alright. They do their job and leave you alone but available when you need them.

The food came out quickly and was decent. Most importantly, they were affordable prices so you can mix and match so many different options.

This would be a cute and fun date night and friends hang out spot!“

“This is a slightly elevated Irish Bar. We had Burgers, Fish n Chips and Shepherd's pie which were all very good.

The bar was at the front and booths were at the back, which was what we needed because we were exhausted. This was also marathon day.

The service was very good and the wine list was surprisingly delicious ?

We will go back when in NYC“

“Delicious food and drinks 😎“

“A marvelous local hangout for delicious classic food with unique twists. Cannot beat the aged steak, baked potato and creamed spinach, with a iceberg wedge salad and a few iced mini carafes of Martinis. And of course live jazz Fridays and Saturdays.“

“chicken empanadas to start were out of this world! lobster soup and steak were so tasty steak cooked to perfection! staff amazing, so friendly and welcoming especially when they found out we are from Scotland! chatted with lady behind bar, sorry cant remember your name who has visited Scotland many times! fab!“

“Legendary place to be seen and a party spot for generations“

“Great location; close to Metro North. Quality Food, Service and Friendly Staff😀“

“A place with a wonderful atmosphere. The view is beautiful. You can admire the sunset and then beautifully illuminated Manhattan. I would definitely come back for this atmosphere. A very large selection of beers, all the ones I tried were good. As for the food, it was ok. It wasn't anything outstanding but it was tasty. The meat was well cooked and had a nice grilled flavor. The whole dish would need some original sauces that would make everything less dry.“

“Great food, friendly staff and efficient service, highly recommended“

“I saw this place when I was passing by and stopped for a drink! The bar is nice and not too much crowded. Bren is awesome shipping food and drinks quickly! They have comedy shows in weekdays but require tickets to purchase… I liked the place and atmosphere“

“Excellent food and service.. love this place when we are in New York.. Defo one of the best spots for great food and drinks❤️“

“As a frequent patron of The Joyce, I have hosted numerous events at this bar over the years. The staff consistently provides exceptional service, and the culinary offerings are outstanding. I have sampled a wide variety of menu items and highly recommend the steak, although many other dishes are equally impressive.“

“Today we had the pleasure of dining at Blue 42 Restaurant and Bar, located at 158 Market St, Elmwood Park, NJ, and I must say it was a delightful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The security staff were particularly friendly and helpful, ensuring we felt comfortable and safe throughout our visit.
While our order did take a little longer to arrive than expected, it was truly worth the wait. Each dish we ordered was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The attention to detail in the preparation was evident, and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. It’s clear that the chefs at Blue 42 take pride in their culinary creations.
We ended up spending a total of $78, including tips, and I felt that the quality of the food and the overall dining experience justified every penny. The combination of great service and delicious meals makes Blue 42 a restaurant I would happily recommend to others.
If you're in the area and looking for a place to enjoy a meal, I highly encourage you to check out Blue 42. You won’t be disappointed!“

“the best food and friendly spot ❤️“

“Excellent food and service. Wednesday night trivia is awesome. Great place.“

“Had a terrific lunch here. Some of the best ceviche I've ever eaten. Entrees were excellent and, according to my husband (who's been to Peru), authentic to the spirit of the country. I also got the arroz chufa with steak. Yum! Ample portions and good value. First meal on this trip to NYC and it'll be hard to beat. HIGHLY recommended.“

“Solid sports bar with good wings. We ordered three traditional wing flavors: buffalo, O'Hara's special sweet and spicy, and parmesan garlic. The O'Hara special flavor was by far the favorite of the group. I would not order the artichoke dip again as it was quite watery and tasted about the same as a frozen option from the grocery store. Although they have a great beer menu I was disappointed that my two preferred beers were unavailable to order (Blue Moon and cold snap). All things considered, I'd come back for the wings and the sports bar atmosphere.“

“Great place for dinner and drinks“

“It reminded me of the pubs in London as soon as I walked in. You should definitely try the recession menu. There is a pool table in the back. The bartender was a friendly and chatty person. The music list was very enjoyable. A pub you should definitely visit.“

“Frozen Coquito And nachos“

“Came by wogies today and i had the best experience ever. David is a great bartender he recommended the philly steak sandwich and the parmesan wings they were amazing. They have a variety of beers and liquor i had a kona big wave on draft. Definitely come by and ask for David the bartender.“

“Great Food, Great Drinks, and a very nice friendly atmosphere.“

“We were in Newyork for 3 nights and had the best fun in this bar the 2 guys from Ireland that own it did everything they could to make our night out amazing, food and drink were top class the guy behind the bar with the 🐻 beard was very helpful 👍“

“You can have a good time here if you accept the place for what it is.

A decent bar near a college.

The vibes have been frat bro and adults who still think they’re in frats each time I’ve been.

That being said, staffs always been nice and it does have a good social atmosphere where you can meet people / make new friends if you want.

Would recommend giving it a try and seeing if it’s for you.“

“The patrons and the staff are very friendly and I had a great time!“

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

“Amazing experience here, server Megan was fantastic and very friendly, good and drinks 10/10! Thank you ☺️“

“Came on a Friday evening. The food and service were good. The DJ was spinning good R&B. The restaurant is small and a little unorganized when it comes to waiting for a table. I get that it's a neighborhood spot, and everyone knows each other, but if it's a restaurant, treat it like one. If it's a lounge, change it to a lounge and not a restaurant.“

“Very nice,charming,and food plus service was absolutely superb!“

“Great happy hour specials and friendly service!“

“MEEEEGAAAAA 🇺🇸🙌🏼👌🏽Nice !!! Great atmosphere, super friendly staff, my favourite bar in New York City with the best beer! I‘ll come back! 🍻“

“Recently moved to the city and stumbled into the bar and it has since become my go to. Chris was my bartender the first time and many after that. He has always remembered my name and what I drink and is prompt with service and a great conversationalist. Love this place!“

“My bartender Amanda made my experience as great as it could’ve possibly been. She gave great NY beer recommendations (I’m not from the area) and charged my phone for me when it was about to die. Great service, great drinks, great atmosphere, will be back!!“

“My new neighborhood bar! Great staff. Reasonable drink priced. Great music!“

“Overall a good experience. Burger and quesadillas were both tasty. $18 for the burger was a little high but $16 for the quesadilla was reasonable. Really appreciate the reference to It’s a Wonderful Life if that’s what the owners were going for with the name.“

“First of all, I will start by providing some background information on this establishment. This location has been in operation for several years and underwent a rebranding approximately 4 or 5 years ago. It is known for being a family and pet-friendly environment, as it is named after the owners' dogs. Everyone is welcome at this establishment.

It is important to address that the events that occurred during the Puerto Rican festival did not take place at our location. While our establishment is typically a safe and welcoming place, unfortunately, there are instances where individuals do not behave appropriately. It is disturbing to learn that a grown man behaved inappropriately towards a child, as we do not tolerate any form of sexual assault.

It is worth noting that we have not had any incidents of sexual assault against women at our establishment. Such behavior is strictly prohibited. The incident involving an individual who fled from the location serves as a reminder of the importance of communities uniting against predators.

Those familiar with the television show "Cheers" may find similarities in our establishment, as it is a place where regular patrons are known by name. Newcomers often have a positive experience and frequently return. If you find yourself in East Harlem, we invite you to visit Teddy's F&B, affectionately known as the "hood cheers." Thank you for considering us as a potential destination. FYI there is open mic on Tuesdays and Karaoke on Wednesdays. Come drink, eat, dance, play games or just vibe with us.

Kid-friendliness: Children of all ages are welcomed.

Wheelchair accessibility: A ramp is available if requested.“

“Great atmosphere, friendly staff, great food and drinks!“
