Reviews for The Alvin Public House in New York, NY
All I can say is that Alvins chicken curry is life changing! Visited here last year, and have been on a mission to find... something similar! I am in NYC, and plan to revisit!!? Cannot wait to come back! Read more
The service was very good but the food was quite disappointing. We ordered a lot of dishes and the only thing that I enjoyed was... the nachos. The steak sandwich, scotch egg, mac & cheese, and brussel sprouts were all kind of bland and not that great. I?d goback just for drinks. Read more
If you haven?t stumbled across this East side Gem, you should! Stopped in for a few cocktails with a friend. Mezcal is my go to... lately and ?The Devils Bit? is really The Angels Envy, it did not disappoint. Gorgeous looking bar, and the staff were attentiveand super friendly! Looks like they?ve great gluten free options so I will definitely be back for dinner soon. Read more
I?m OBSESSED with the Alvin. I live around the block and come here regularly. Everything on the menu is so amazing. Great... ambiance and music. Everyone is so friendly too. I wish I could come here everyday Read more
Visited here last night, I live down the street. I sat at the bar with a couple friends. Our bartender could had been more... attentive. We had to ask for every drink after being dry for several minutes. The bar drinks and food are great. The servicecould be better, there are too many other places to visit with good service, food and drinks. Read more
Nice and pleasant staff, mediocre quality cocktails, and the food is mediocre (I am being generous when describing food as... mediocre). Our order was regular Moscow Mule (overly strong alcohol content), Pineapple Moscow Mule (too sweet even though Iasked for a drink that's not sweet), shareable plate of fries (a little burnt), Kale Caesar with the steak (kale was definitelyold/overgrown and had threads in it which made it a lot chewier that I have ever had in a kale Caesar in other places, and thesteak was soft and juicy, but it was very, very bland/unseasoned; also I asked for a medium and got medium-rare instead), and apub Burger (completely unseasoned ground beef, tasteless cheap cheddar cheese, didn't smell or taste like grill at all). I eatout often, and I have definitely tried much, much better food for cheaper or same price. Seems like they use cheap ingredientsand don't care about the quality of the food that much. The atmosphere was nice tho; that's the only aspect of this place thatgets 5 stars from me. Dim lights, chatty groups of people, music was not overly loud. Overall, I would not be back mostlybecause I was disappointed with food. Whether you like it or not depends on your palate, and for me it just leaves a lot to bedesired. I left the place with full stomach, but still unsatisfied and craving something else, and in general I am a smallperson who can't eat more than half a plate of food ever. Read more
I'm about to use the word great five times. The Alvin has a great atmosphere with outdoor seating both in front and in a back... yard terrace, great cocktails, great craft beer selection, great cheeseburger, and the staff are very frien... uh... they'regreat. Read more
Great bar with a great Guinness and delicious buffalo wings. I wish they had more TVs but its a great neighborhood spot
