Updated review: Whiskey sour with egg white, so hard to find in Manhattan. Great!!! Love this place, go to spot for our Friday... night friend gatherings. There is live music (piano and cello), and it’s super cosy. Good in wintertime too, and I can’twait for our summer nights. More pics to follow Read more
Can I give it more stars than five!!?? It’s worth the money and every bite is full of flavor. Every dish you order, is unique... in its own taste! You can never go wrong ordering the incorrect dish I would say! We went in the group of 12, and had almostordered every dish! The drinks were okayish but the food amazing! Read more
Looked good at face value, and the dishes looked interesting, but tasted just ok. We got the chicken chops, portabella, octopus... and beef meatballs. The chicken was probably seasoned the best in my opinion, crunchy on the outside, but moist inside and Iloved the artichokes on the side. The meatballs were similar to meatballs you might find from a street vendor. The mushroomdidn’t taste seasoned really, and the octopus was decent, but I had mixed feelings about the sweet/spicy sauce it was coatedin. The inside looked like a really neat layout, but we ate outside, so maybe that killed some of the experience. Overall itwas good, but we expected a little more for what we paid. Read more
I was excited to try this place out since it's full every time I walk past Irving Place. TL;DR I'd classify this as more of a... vibe-y bar place rather than a great restaurant, although the food was done well enough even if there wasn't a standoutdish. We ordered several starters including the spinach croquetas, twister fries, haloumi and fried calamari. All were okay,with the fried calamari being the best bar chow-type dish. That and the fries came with generous servings. For the main I hadthe steak tacos, and again it was fine without being amazing. Price-wise this wasn't bad, but I can see this restaurant beingmore attractive for their $14-15 cocktails rather than the quality of their food. Read more
Great food here! Service was slow. We had the mezze platter with babaganush, stuffed grape leaves, and taziki. The fish tacos... and Margherita flatbread were good and I heard the steak tacos were pretty good too. Sitting outside was really nice, there wasa cool breeze which made the heat bearable. The music was loud, but they turned it down eventually. Overall, I’d say this is aplace for hanging out and seemed real laid back. One thing I was less happy about was the servers seeming distracted and mixedup of orders on more than one occasion. Hope this helps! Read more
Came here for lunch with a friend. Honestly it was pretty odd experience overall. We must have come around their opening time... because it was completely empty indoors and outdoors. Pros: - Tasty food - Spacious indoor and outdoor dining areas Cons: -Could’ve been cleaner and more sanitary…(see below) - Was not a fan of the ambiance - it felt very strange with therestaurant so empty and there was music that blasted from time to time randomly, and when that wasn’t happening, it wascompletely silent - Despite not being busy at all, the service was pretty slow - to get the food as well as the bill We orderedsome appetizers to share and my friend ended up trying a handful of their cocktails, but liked the coffee one the most. Forfood, we ordered their mezze platter with hummus, babaganoush, and tzatziki. We also ordered the spinach croquettes, and thetzatziki meatballs. All of the food was pretty good - the meatballs were a favorite for sure. HOWEVER I did notice there was ahair on the plate with the pita bread which was kind of gross and not sanitary whatsoever… As for the ambiance, it was prettydark, and there was loud music that kept blasting on and off at random times, which we found to be a bit disruptive. Maybethese cons were because they were still opening up or because we were the only customers…? Not sure, but sadly, this did notmake for a very enjoyable experience. Read more
Solid Mediterranean / American restaurant- lots of seating (indoor and outdoor) and great for large groups. Loved the bartender... (didn’t catch her name) but she was friendly and made great drinks. Came on a Monday night and it was a bit quiet but had agreat time sitting at the bar. Food comes out a bit slow and prices are a bit high but I did leave feeling full. Read more
