Great cocktail bar with delicious food! All the cocktails we had were delicious, we especially enjoyed the pickled martini! We were most impressed by the food, the meat dumplings with dill were delicious, and very reasonably priced!

I wanted to like this place but honestly the drinks are mid for the price you’re paying. The thing I hate the most is the air quality and temperature (both summers and winters). No air flow and so humid the windows literally fog up. Feels like you’re inside a green house. Also they should staff 2 bartenders esp on busy nights. Sometimes takes 20m to get your drink

My top recommendation when people ask for my favorite bar in NYC. The perfect high end hidden neighborhood bar. I love that it was created by an art+literary organization I love called E-flux.

One of my favorite bar in nyc!Delicious drinks, fantastic sound system and music programming just one of the kind. Crowd is very artistic and got some retro futuristic look.

Laika has become my go-to for drinks in the neighborhood. Great drinks, well priced, and lovely ambiance. As others have commented during peak times they definitely could use one more server / bartender as drinks can take quite a while.

We only came for drinks so we didn't try any of the food. The drinks were lovely... I had a chili margarita and my friend had the ginger mezcal drink. Both were very good. It has a sleek, modern, minimalist vibe and powerful AC which was very much appreciated on an extremely hot day in Brooklyn.

Great spot to grab a few drinks and chat with someone. Minimalist in nature, from furniture design, to the menu, to the cocktails themselves. Got the “sour” and “Chile margarita” and was very pleased with both. This will be a go-to for me.

Great place to go for snacks, hydration, and conversation in a relaxed and cool (air conditioned) environment. The borjomi mineral water (from the mountains of Georgia) is a little salty, perfectly carbonated, and 100% delicious. A new fave

Friends and I came in shortly after opening on a Friday night and got a table. The bar itself is sleek and modern and has a great aesthetic. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. We tried the Yuzu 75, Strawberry Rhubarb Sour, and the Spritz cocktails. They were also well crafted and flavorful. We also had their Pelmeni pirk dumplings, Vareniki potato dumplings, and the marinated cucumbers. These were all excellent, and good portions to share. The cucumbers were covered in a briny marinade loaded with fresh dill; fresh and delicious. The dumplings both came with sour cream and fresh dill, and the potato ones with fried onions on top. These were delicious as well. I would absolutely recommend stopping by!
