Nice divey bar with great drinks and bar food. We came in before going out to a local escape room a few blocks away and weren't disappointed with the quality drinks and food. Highly recommend the burgers and the drinks. Service is great turn bar tender was friendly and recommended some great cocktails. The bar seating is limited but there are plenty of small tables and bench seating. Overall it's a great bar with nice atmosphere. The decor is a bit all over the place from winter decorations to mistletoes everywhere. Very cozy.

Very casual quaint spot with a nice asthetic. There is bar seating and tables (for singles and larger parties up to eight ). The service was slow, and there was a large gap (about 20mins) between getting bar drinks and ordering food. The restaurant was filled however, so the slow service could have been a sign of busyness. The Christmas drink options are original and full of flavor, I recommend the "Quintini". The food is great for sharing. The standouts were the wings with its complimentary sauce. The Mac and cheese would have been even better without the croutons. The "cheese pull" when it first comes out is nice. The chicken sandwich is made of dark meat and was average. I have had more seasoned and flavorful sandwiches.

This spot is a good spot to go if you want a quick bite. The food is very tasty. The prices are very reasonable.

This place is the best! We hosted a reception for 50 people - great ambiance, delicious food, and warm service. Shout out to Mike, the manager, for accommodating all our requests and making sure the event was a success! Our guests raved about the food and drinks.

My wife came here several times and loved it so much she insisted we go. We had guac and chips appetizer and it was the blandest guac of ever had - maybe they're catering to 5 year old pallets. Main course was fish and chips - although the menu said "battered" it was breaded and fried, and they don't serve it with, or have in the kitchen, any malt vinegar. Other people's food did look and smell good, so maybe I made a mistake not ordering something more difficult to get wrong.Although my wife and I were very disappointed with the food, our kids had wings and burgers and soup and loved it. Also, the ambience is nice, and the staff are incredibly friendly. I have a hunch that if I went back and ordered wings and a burger, I may have given them 5 stars instead of 2.

Overall rating: 4.5$7 margarita during happy hour. Sign me up! Very small spot that feels short staffed when I went during happy hour time. Oddly enough I saw someone working at the bar, but the odd part was there’s literally no space. I like the deal, but I don’t think I could come back solo. This is a spot you catch up with a friend on.Definitely want to come back again & try their food.

The restaurant has a lot of options for food - tacos, burgers, salads, pho, and sandwiches and there is beer on tap. Given there were so are many options, the food is average. I do wish the food was better but it is all right for a quick bite.They do have their own happy hours times which is another plus for the place. There aren't many bars so it has found its niche area. They have stuff on draft and wine.

Great Tex mec food with updated twists. Loved my grilled corn & romaine salad, also tasted the kale quesadilla which was out of this world! Service was friendly and prompt. Atmosphere was a casual bar and a few tables, some in the back outside. There is a opening to the street which gives the place an open, airy feel to it. On seventh Ave in Brooklyn near a lot of other area neighborhood stores. Convenient street parking.

Friendly service in a cozy space. Fresh lemonade hit the spot and the queso is just the best. Their salads are both healthy and tasty. Lots to love here!

Our drinks at Bar Basic were quite good and reasonably priced, our food was OK - one of the dishes came out less hot than I would have expected and the tacos were on the pricey side for the quantity of food. The outdoor space is quite cute when the weather permits outdoor dining.
