“I was very impressed, moonlighting in the bartender night life for the last 20 years. I normally don’t go out to bars. My sister and myself were down at Lenox hospital for our Dads surgery. One of the desk staff at Franklin Hotel recommended Penrose! The staff, manager and bartender were so friendly. I have to say I was very happy. I will certainly pop over again next time I’m in the area!!!! The drinks and food were top notch… So cheers Penrose to your amazing hospitality ❤️“

“I am a 30 year customer. 30 years experiencing consistent excellence across the board. Gabriel and his sons have put this restaurant at the pinnacle of what fine dining can be. Not fussy. Not pretentious. Simply excellent in every way, every time, across 3 decades. Restaurants of this quality are few and far between.“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“Obviously we like thaï food as this is the the 3rd place in 3 weeks
Here the food is different not the usual curry dish or sate and oh soooo good.
Loved the 2 shrimp dishes we ordered, the shrimp cake as appetizer was excellent.
Our waitress Siri was friendly, helpful and always smiling.
Do try the lychee martini.“

“Iconic and inspired Upper West Side Eatery/Music avenue. I love the live music there, they have it 6 nights a week! Really good food & cocktails as well! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼“

“Great atmosphere and service. And the truffle fries were terrific!“

“Had a riot ‘ music was fantastic and ton of fun. Everything we wanted in a piano bar“

“A gorgeous little bar and restaurant right by Columbus Circle, with a lively atmosphere and fantastic oysters. The cherry basil limeade was a little herbal for my taste, but the bartender accommodated me with a little grenadine. I wish I was in town longer, because I would absolutely go back again.“

“The food the service overall everything is impeccable“

“Great atmosphere. Perfect place to hangout and chat before a show. Best bartenders in town. Sexy BINGO is so much fun!! 😊“

“I tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt. The food is awful. Mozzarella sticks were frozen, Cajun fries, a handful of paprika drowned over the top Today beer that's normally $6 was $8 plus a $4 tip, tax and looking for another tip. Bill should have been $20 it's $30. Live with your wn failure. Don't put it on the customers. Pretty bartenders won't cover incompetence.“

“Come for the trivia stay because it's a really awesome place to be. E's Bar is preeeetttty awesome and quite a good size to be able to have a good time! The drinks are reasonably priced and the Tres Fish Tacos are BOMB. I appreciate the fact that they choose to be a sustainable bar with their LED lighting and purchasing of carbon offsets. It's hard for bars to reduce their environmental impact so any step matters. It always seems like everyone's having a good time here- not trashy at all, just a good neighborhood bar. And they have theme nights too which is fun.“

“Great spot to land for lunch after touring the aircraft carrier The Intrepid.“

“My husband and I are checking off the top 10 East Harlem eateries. The Earls beer and cheese is ranked #5. Their drink and food met lol our high expectations. We had blackberry hard cider and BBQ brisket taco
The Back to Back - fried chicken breast in buffalo sauce with French fries. The services were very outstanding and food were delicious. The place were filled with professionals and rather quite. The back room was very cool👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼“

“did the work, bought the shirt! awesome space!!“

“You're going for the views. The location, view, and service was excellent. Food was ok, pretty straight forward. The music was loud and over bearing and tingy. Either turn down the random music (so random) or increase sound absorption panels. Maybe it would have sound better with the doors open. To hard to talk for a romantic brunch.“

“Very nice service and selection. I am here 1nce a week or every other week. The Bartender is great and attentive without being overly so. Cheers!!“

“Top notch service/experience“

“Absolutely love this place! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the warm, comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a genuinely welcoming vibe. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always remembers my order — a small touch that goes a long way. The coffee itself is top-notch: rich, smooth, and clearly made with care. I also appreciate the cozy atmosphere — perfect for working, reading, or catching up with friends. Their food is delicious too (highly recommend the avocado toast!). Easily one of the best coffee spots in town.“

“Love The Notch! Can’t wait to see what great bands will be playing there this year and the new friends I’m bound to make! The Notch Family keeps growing! If you haven’t been there yet…… get to it! ❤️🎶🍻“

“I wasn't going to share this place with anyone because I don't want it to get crowded but I have to bc I love it so much. Presenting my new watering hole in Bergen! The location is where the old 21 used to be, on the top floor of the Son Jjajang building. Great happy hour everyday 4-8!! It's a steal considering how good the food is. Happy hour all types of soju are $8.99 and beers are cheap too. All the big dishes on the happy hour menu are between $14-$18 and I think the portion sizes are the same! I have yet to try something that I don't love on the menu. Their: Cheese buldak (fire chicken w/ mozzarella cheese.. ask for medium spicy if you can't do heat!) Jogae sujebi (Korean version of.. gnocchi? in clam broth..I always order another side of sujebi) Donkatsu (breaded & fried pork cutlet) Tofu & kimchi Ddukbokki (spicy rice cakes... I usually ask for cheese on this also lol) Tong dak (whole fried chicken) Gaeran mari (Korean cheese omlette w/ fried garlic on top) Budae jjigae (Korean army soup, goes great with soju!) and weirdly enough their giant plate of FRIES (idk what they do to those fries they're just fries but they're so good lol) are among some of my favorites. However, the food tends to be on the spicier side which isn't an issue for me, but if you can't handle too much spice be sure to tell your waiter. I can't say enough about how good the food is. The chef apparently refuses to use anything but the best ingredients and it shows in the taste of the food. Portions are big too! Obviously I eat here a lot... lol Oh and the servers and manager are all so nice!! One time we had a big party of 10 but they didn't have space so they put us in their only karaoke room in the back. We wanted to watch the US Open but we couldn't figure out the TV in the room so the manager found an HDMI cable and hooked his own cellphone up to it so we could watch. How sweet?!! At the moment they only serve soju and beer but I have been told that they will start offering liquor soon :) Like I said, I don't want this place to get crowded but they deserve the business with food and service like this. I hope they stick around and become a new staple in Pal Park! PS. The menu is entirely in Korean so bring a friend who is fluent or ask the waiters for suggestions! I will definitely have to mention to them that they should make an English version of their menu. Will be back with pictures later!“

“I had a private event in the Parlor Room and it was fabulous. Food and drinks were spot on and the service was dynamite. There were 21 of us all together and everyone was well cared for by server Lily and the rest of the awesome staff. I really love the unique atmosphere of the place -warm, classy and comfortable all at once. No boring old chain restaurant vibes here. Everyone had a great time. I would definitely host future events here.“

“The Hamilton is a cozy, warm, bar with an excellent selection of whiskeys. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and will help you find the perfect cocktail for your tastes. Joe, one of the bartenders, also host a a rotating exhibition of different artists about once a month. You can get a perfect Manhattan and a piece of artwork for your livingroom. 😊“

“It’s great place with very delicious pasta and artesanal pizza! 🍝🍕“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“#AmazingBar #DiveBarNYC 🥰“

“Amazing food. Huge Portions. Excellent service. My only complaint is that I live 4 hours away. 😭“

“I have been living in the USA for 10 years, I have visited many places and even in Texas they don't serve such delicious, juicy butlers... the service is so great that I could sit there all night and not leave. I highly recommend it and I will definitely come back for more bathing... thank you for everything, you are great“

“Great ambiance, friendly crowd, great food!“

“Great place to hangout and always drink specials. Best bartender in town by far.“

“Laid back vibe, excellent wine choices and I sampled my first ever oyster - delish!“

“One of the best places I've been to in quite some time! Beautiful inside, fabulous food, great vibe, soooo fun!“

“For a good night out with the girls, your own private room , you can sing as loud as you want! It's clean and updated. The host, he was very nice and gave us complimentary food. The drinks were strong and good. Will definitely return again. 감사합니다“

“Reliable and reasonable Columbia U hangout spot. Great for events or watching the game, thr drinks are fairly priced and the food is great. If you want a cozier, neighborhood-ier, dive-ier vibe, head across the street to the Lion’s Head—but for getting a group together uptown, this is a good bet.“

“I had visited the Hoptimist a few times before moving back to NYC and the staff are always incredibly nice & pleasant to talk with. I brought my dog since moving and she has been welcomed with open arms (she is adjusting to NYC after living on the dog friendly west coast). Since we are in the neighborhood we will likely become frequent visitors since I like beer (and they have a great selection!) & my dog likes attention.“

“Came here on a Saturday morning while waiting for my wife to get her hair done. Amazing spot. Tons of taps and a stocked fridge. The staff is amazing. I was the only customer and the bartenders kept me entertained the whole time! If you drop in, take a moment to appreciate the hand drawn tap list art. Its the gift that keeps giving :)“

“Lucille’s is a wonderful place to grab great coffee with attentive and warm service, and a great vibe. The music is always great, as are the people. Lovely neighborhood spot to get great quality food and lock in when you need to get something done. Love the food, staff, and its cozy setting.“

“Always top tier.musicians with jazz to soul and r&b feel. Cocktails are amazing and some of the specials are well. They have a late night menue! Don’t miss the jam sessions in the weekend! Love that it has history going sic to the Jazz greats.“
