“Good wings and fries. Bae treated. I see they are half price on Wednesdays from 6 to 9 so need to come back. Excellent pool tables. Practicing for the upcoming pool league season.
They have ping pong too. Bae and I will come back to practice. Inspired by the recent movie we just seen. Marty Supreme.“

“The place is a vibe. The atmosphere and esthetics is everything. It has a great vintage, cozy, bookstore mature feels with these bold eclectic open frames. Food is good. Well presented but lacks flavor. Where the food lacks in the drinks make up in style. Service is attentive but not amazing. Overall. Great time. Great vibes. Would recommend and go again for the feel, not the food.“

“Excellent coffee shop on Long Island, come for the caffeine and stay for the community. We stopped by my mom’s favorite coffee shop mid-afternoon, because the family was trying to kill me with caffeine deprivation. The oat milk latte was carefully made and smooth and easy to drink. The interior is great, for a brief moment in time you are anywhere in the World with roll up garage doors, fooseball and a clean setting for evening entertainment. I’ll be back next time I’m visiting!“

“Last month we held a surprise birthday party for my daughter there and it was great! The staff was great, the drinks were amazing, and the manager was incredible. She was very accommodating and welcoming. Give her a raise!! I’ll definitely be back! Their double margaritas are LIFE!“

“Nice place to unwind and enjoy great service from the awesome bartender's Shorn and Linval. Those drinks are amazing very punching. (Rum Punch)“

“This is a wonderful, cozy place that truly impressed me with its attention to detail. From having phone chargers available to real hand towels in the restroom — everything feels thoughtfully done.

The staff is consistently attentive to every guest throughout the evening, even when the place is fully booked. You never feel rushed or overlooked.

Alan deserves a special mention — he made our evening unforgettable. It’s so clear when someone genuinely loves what they do, and that energy completely elevates the experience.

Thank you for creating such a warm, welcoming place. We’ll definitely be back.“

“My best friend lives in Queens so she and I come to the Onion Tree every other Friday night. I wish this place was closer to me. I live in Yonkers. The food is superb, seasoned extraordinarily. The chicken is fresh, soft and cut into small bites. I always order chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, or chicken tikka pizza. I have never had food that I enjoyed this much and I have tried all foods all over the world. I never get tired of this place. And the food is served quickly and piping hot. They’re opening a second place in Manhattan. We’re getting closer to Yonkers!! The drinks are awesome too. Barbra and Louis work behind the bar. They’re friendly and great bartenders.“

“The food was absolutely delicious, as were the drinks and the service. We really loved our experience there while visiting our family in Floral Park.“

“great place..attention to customers is second to none!“

“the vibe at IYKYK was nice... the food delish... drinks on point... varied music including latin beats which to my taste was awesome plus they have hookah (cash only but worth it)... honestly prices were pretty affordable and the service was really nice... our waitress Tiffany was attentive even though her section was busy when we first got there...our food and drinks didn't take long... I went with my cousin and we both had a blast... It was our first time going to IYKYK, and we're def planning on going back 💃🏼“

“One of the few sanctuaries of culture and non commercial world music. Viva Terraza!“

“Great local bar! You feel welcomed when you come into the bar. The bartender Nicole helped us out with the drinks and was very friendly! I would definitely come back again soon.“

“I hate a lot of places and their service. But I cannot recommend this place more!!! The service was perfect and they did exactly what we asked. The portions were great, and the food was very high quality and worth the wait. Which was not long. I had the jalapeno burger and the cod fish and chips and both were very fulfilling. The cod especially was high in taste quality. One of the best i've ever had. And the fries are really perfect. Their fryer must be clean and they must do a great job preparing. The place was very busy, but they were very fast.“

“This is such a cool spot for a get together with friends in Ridgewood. We went after dinner from Rolos and our bartender provided great explanations and recommendations for our drinks. The drinks were made well, but most importantly this bar has a very cool ambiance, and very much similar to a lounge experience.

I would definitely recommend this spot as a stopover from dinner whether you're out with a small group or on a date.“

“The best lasagna I’ve ever had in my life 🩷🩷❤️❤️“

“The Sunday brunch skillet“

“MB Bar Boutique is absolutely amazing! The music is always on point — DJ Vampire knows how to keep the party going all night long with the best mixes.

“Overall a great place to visit on a sunny day out or with colleagues after work. She was extremely kind about it and not rude at all- even asked me for a back up drink in case they couldn't modify my first choice. My waitress modified one of the drinks I requested due to a personal allergy. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Great place to come by for some food and drinks if you are in the area.“

“Everything ..I’ve been going to the bar for 30years and they also have a great female pool team..come on down and support your local team..chicks with sticks“

“Food was good and friendly customer service. I will recommend everyone this place.“

“I go here every chance I can. The drinks are great. The food is delicious! The environment is fantastic and there's usually an adorable dog somewhere(sometimes that dog is the one I bring with me 😜). If you're in the area and in the mood for a cocktail and some delicious food then I highly recommend coming here“

“Found this place doing an internet search and didn’t know what to expect. Friendly local bar and staff, wide range of comfort food on the menu, and Smithwicks on draft. A very pleasant experience!“

“I’ve been to The Blvd three times now and every single time has been a great experience. The food is always delicious, the drinks are strong (they definitely don’t skimp on the liquor), and the vibes are always on point. On weekends, they have DJs and sometimes host different events, which makes it even better. It’s one of those spots you can count on for good energy, good music, and a solid meal every time. Definitely a go-to in the Bronx.

Honorable mention:
Chicken Francese, chicken parm.
Nachos
Dubai chocolate martini
RASPERRY LEMON DROP MARTINI 1000/10 😍“

“Among my fave spots around. The atmosphere is electric and they play every game! Enjoy their all-day happy hour, when you can receive five shots for $25 to $40 (depending on your poison of choice). The food is more typical of a pub, but it's great for a quick bite and priced friendly! Highly recommended their bulgogi quesadilla. Couldn’t gate-keep any longer!!“
