Had a late lunch with my brother & sister. Burgers & pulled pork sliders with sweet potato fries. Very good! We ate on the 2nd floor. The main floor seemed more like a sports bar & the crowd seemed to enjoy it.

Loved this place. Great staff, good food and definitely a locals place. I met a few nice New Yorkers and enjoyed a great dark beer.

Good drinks and burgers. Clean, proper. Bartenders Meghan and Louise are honestly great. I usually greet Meghan with "hey Bensonhurst" or "hey Bay Ridge" but she never corrects me. Karaoke on Wednesday nights but it starts late (10-2, I think. Inquire within) Been there more times than I can count.

Great experience. They made room for our large group on short notice and then provided fast and friendly service so that we were able to make our bus in time. My hamburger and fries were both very good.

Three floors dedicated to social gathering. Who woulda thunk it. The third floor has a section that is outside which is great on summer nights. They don't have a view, but you can enjoy the fresh air. They have tasty food and happy hour specials and they are incredibly accommodating with groups of people. If you call ahead of time they will give you a section for your group and if you have a big enough group they will give you a designated server which is so convenient.

Went here because of the good reviews on Google. I went with a girlfriend before a Broadway show. The happy hour menu is very small, three drinks and three shots, but yum!! Great atmosphere, friendly staff, world go again!

Great drinks - I had the Irish mule. Got the boneless chicken wings and they were awesome. Not just boneless wings with some sauce splattered on top, these were instead thoroughly covered in the sauce. Very tasty.

Tried few places between 5th and 9th (where i was staying) and found none so engaging, accommodating, friendly and nicely laid out places. Life music, friendly atmosphere, really nice food and wide selection of taps made my day and got me to come back every evening. Service was really friendly and prices didn't got me to re-mortgage my house. I will strongly recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat, have a nice night out or even to drop by.

I hosted an event here for my company, Over 40 Females, and it could not have been a better venue! The food was great, the service incredible, the room had audio equipment, a mic, everything. What a charming place and we can't wait to come back!

We came here for Happy Hour on a Thursday. Joined by 4-5 girls-- we really liked their Cotton Candy Cosmopolitan and the Pomegranate Lemon Drop Martini. Somehow made it upstairs to their 2nd Floor. There was pretty big windows that looked out at the street. It was fun to people watch from the bar and tables to everyone across the street. The bartender was really nice and actually really funny. The food menu wasn't bad. We split a Thai Chicken on Pita Bread it was really good and not too filling but perfect to line the stomach for a long night of drinking. Overall a 5- star, great customer service, good food, and fun music. Would absolutely come again.
