First impression was that it was loud, but it is a sports bar so that is to be expected. We had dinner reservations for bottomless dinner on a Saturday night. Our waitress was friendly and came around frequently to get us refills on our drinks. The food here was your classic bar food with an elevated touch. The general tso's cauliflower was really good. It was my first time having it and I think I like it better than buffalo cauliflower. The Korean fried chicken sandwich was also good, but nothing exciting. The mozzarella cheese in the buffalo soldier really balanced out the spiciness of the buffalo chicken. I feel like the prices are a little high for what this place is, but a good option if you're there to watch a game.

Figured I'd give this a try. Atmosphere decent, loud obnoxious owner. Try to keep things calm and neutral...but obviously a TRUMP lover. Can't control himself. Flagrant disregard for

COME TO THIS BAR!!! They have the best bottomless deal in NYC that I’m familiar with, and the food is delicious.

WE ARE! Penn state! Came here for the Michigan and Penn State game a few months ago and this place had the most electric atmosphere. There's nothing more I can ask for as an alumnus than beer towers, bottomless (with the purchase of an entrée) and a couple fellow Penn Staters all yelling at the same TV.That being said, this place wouldn't be the favorite if it wasn't for a PSU game. The prices aren't unreasonable, but the food itself is just okay. The egg was a little undercooked for a sunny side (I had quite a runny white in my egg), but overall fine. Bottomless for $25 is the real eye catcher at this place. Service was absolutely exceptional though. Our server always made sure we had mimosa in our glasses and let us know 10 minutes prior to when our bottomless was ending. The kitchen was fast with the food and we had no major complaints. TLDR: wouldn't come unless it was a penn state football game, but definitely favorite place to watch the game. Prices are reasonable and if you're in your 20s in NYC, this is the place to go for a fun time with friends!

Bar is a bit elitist for who they listen to regarding tv and music played. We asked to change the audio back to music since it only played commercials and they were unable to. Wouldn’t recommend if you are just going to watch as you need to be in the majority viewer to have a good time.

Great hole in the wall. The food is really good for bar food (I like the wings and the burger) and the happy hour is a cheap. They also have great week day deals. I'd recommend coming for football season. The service was amazing, too.

Run down Murray hill bar. Did not eat. But it was busy so clearly a neighborhood spot.

If somehow Google Maps gets you lost trying to find this place (I know, what kind of New Yorker am I?), you're not alone. But when I finally set foot inside it was a good experience. The place was spacious enough, and has lots of seating. I was there for a trivia night with friends (AND WE WON). I got the sliders with fries, which could have been a BIT cheaper ($14) for the tiny size of the actual sliders, but they WERE tasty nonetheless, and the fries were on point. I also had a couple of Orange Crushes, decently priced at $12/pop and pleasing to the tongue, but kind of weak. My crew felt all their drink selections could have had some more OOMPH to them and when we left, we ended up seeking out another bar for additional drinks that would give us a stronger hit. The waitresses and bar staff were super attentive and friendly though.

Great food options, friendly bartenders, and wonderful owner who helped me plan my birthday party on the second floor. It was a nice private space to have my friends celebrate my birthday with a bartender serving us upstairs. The vibe is great with music and people dancing on the main floor. I would definitely recommend having an event on the second floor if you are looking for something a bit more private. Staff and owner was extremely accommodating and constantly checked to see how we were doing and if we needed any assistance with anything. Highly recommend this place for your next event!

Classic neighborhood bar vibe, great comfort food, with a delightful gourmet touch. Home Base Burger mixed savory and sweet flavors, for a "I just don't want this to end" experience. The Tomato Soup was heavenly. Service was great. Bonus: Tuesday Trivia - Taylor Swift Trivia. I now know that Taylor's favorite color is...PURPLE!

I attended a fundraiser event here so I can't speak about what a usual weekend crowd looks like. Cool after work spot to grab drinks and a few bites. They have happy hour specials most weekdays which include appetizers. Perfect casual hangout place.

Great food and tv's everywhere. Good place to hangout with friends..

The bottomless brunch is amazing! And the service was great especially considering I went with a large group and they were more than accommodating! The food is really good but the only reason I’m giving a 4 star is because the food is pricey for the portions but overall a great brunch spot and bar!
