This used to be one of my favorite places in greenpoint. Now is so badly run. Bartender and chef were very unprofessional. They asked us to leave before we could finish our cocktails and we left zero tip due to inexistent service

Summer or winter, service is like wearing Velcro shoes trying to run across a field of bubble gum: It’s a bit of a struggle, you’re not really sure if you’ll make it, and you leave feeling like you eventually got somewhere, but you’re knackered.

Excellent food. I usually don’t trust fusion food but they do it right. Authenticity in Korean flavors with western interpretations.
Can’t speak so much for drinks since I don’t drink, but vibes are great, food is amazing - also love how there is a specific sequence to the food. It’s very carefully curated.

Love the outdoor seating:)

Such a cute little corner place. Very intimate. Drinks are perfect as well as the bites they have. The bartender, Jackson, was such a delight. Places like this make me so happy. A-Z win!

(CRUDO IS A MUST) just do it!

Innovative menu that rotates but always is great and surprises. Wine is consistently good. Service is fantastic. Feels like Brooklyn.

We love Achilles Heel and make a point to visit every time we come to New York City. Great service, friendly staff, and really good food. It's a little off the beaten path for us since we typically stay in Manhattan, but it's definitely worth a visit. It's super cute.

So.... it's still a lovely space, but beginning to slide.

Advertising the plywood street cabana as "patio" is a cheap deception when booking, and then oddly the tasty-sounding drinks are now watery as a cheap college bar.

Even a simple Old Fashioned - which should be pretty much all whiskey - had no bite at all, so either the bottles are watered or the bartenders are negligent.

Many happy memories from here, but don't plan for more, alas.

The food is nice, but it comes out at intermittent times. We sat with a bowl of salad for half an hour whilst waiting for other things. Food is very pricey for small amounts. Drinks are ok, nothing to rave about. The atmosphere is boring. Very underwhelming place. Meh.

We literally ordered one of everything on the menu and every single thing was delicious!! Scallops, chicken curry, heirloom tomatoes, shrimp, steak tartare…also had great wine by the glass. Good friendly service and pleasant atmosphere. Loved it!

Vegetarian options: On the small menu of about 10 items at least 3-4 were vegetarian.

One of my favorite restaurants in New York right now and a perfect neighborhood spot. Edmond is the new chef and everything on the updated program is delicious. Would love to be a regular here.
