Mediocre brunch spot in the heart of the East Village Short Rib Benedict (3.5/5): A little dry and lacked flavor. I've definitely had better benedicts elsewhere Fried Chicken Sandwich (3.25/5): Also a bit dry; the chicken could have been much juicier Latte (3.25/5): The coffee didn't have the bold flavor I was looking for, but bonus points for the nice latte art!

-Crushed Tomato Pizza
Aleanny M.

We were here for the happy hour menu, we had the 'Dear Maud' and an Aperol Spritz with the crushed tomato pizza. The pizza was tasty, every bite gets the different hits of basil, olive oil, mozzarella, and the blistered tomatoes. The dough was cooked to perfection with the center keeping its crispness even after sitting at our table for 45 minutes! Out waiter was kind and we chatted with him for about 10 minutes and he was lovely, the vibe of the place was the same friendliness!

-Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich
Yahaira V.

The chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious and packed with so much flavor. The staff and service were friendly and efficient, and the restaurant itself is absolutely stunning. Definitely a spot worth visiting!

Solid brunch place. It's not that great and not terrible It's overall good experience. But love that it's one of the rare places open early for breakfast. Hard to find places open at that time. the staff are always so friendly with us and our pups. We do outside dining since we always have our pups. The pancake is a bit plain nothing special. The sausages here is not bad. The first time we came the potatoes were soooo salty you can see how much salt was on it. The second time the potatoes we done significantly better. The burrito was good the breakfast plater nothing special. But we"ll be back to the other things.

Super cute restaurant! I went at about a 12:30 on a Saturday, and I got seated immediately. Staff was attentive, and there are many options on the menu! I got the breakfast burrito with chicken sausage, and it was so flavorful. The texture was great too with the crispiness from the hashbrowns. I also got an iced vanilla latte which was nothing special.

My friend who lives in the neighborhood suggested we come here because she loves their happy hour cocktails. We started off strong with drinks, which were fabulous. Unfortunately, things went downhill fast once we ordered food. The crispy tuna arrived first and was disappointing. There wasn't much tuna, and the rice was more overcooked than crispy. Two of us received our meals promptly, but the third dish, the steak and eggs, never arrived. After waiting quite a while, we asked our server if it was on the way. She responded dismissively, saying, "Well yes, since I did put it in," before walking away. We continued waiting while staff members looked over at our table clearly discussing our issue, but avoided making eye contact or providing an update. About 10 minutes later, a manager came by and informed us there had been an issue with the order and that the dish would be out shortly. Unfortunately, it took another 20 minutes to arrive. When the steak and eggs finally came out, we were speechless. The steak was severely undercooked, practically still mooing. My friend couldn't even chew it all the way. Throughout all of this, our server never apologized, acknowledged the delay, or checked in with us. At the end of the meal, we flagged down the manager to get our check and showed her the steak. She offered us a discount, which we appreciated. However, our server still never addressed the situation. It's a shame because we had planned to stay for several drinks and spend more time there, but the service completely changed the experience. The food wasn't good enough to make up for it either. My chicken wrap was very average. Afterward, I mentioned the experience to a few NYC friends, and they all told me this isn't a place they would recommend for food. Now I understand why. If you're looking for happy hour drinks, this place may be worth a visit. Based on our experience, I would skip the food or this place overall.

Scone
Maria R.

Went during the week for breakfast. There was no wait and able to sit inside. The scone was huge and pretty good with the butter and jam. The eggs Benedict didnt have that much flavor. The service was ok.

-Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
Brooke A.

While the wait and seating arrangement were a bit confusing, the food was solid! We stood in line and were told it would be a 45 minute wait but that they wouldn't be able to take our name down--instead, we were told to hang tight in line and they'd call us when they were ready. Shortly after, we were offered bar seats, which we gladly accepted! There was an upstairs bar with a vibe very different than the lighter, more earthy downstairs! This didn't really fit the mood of our girls brunch; HOWEVER, looking past the bad lighting and resulting poor quality pictures, it was a good staging area for a catch-up with a solid breakfast burrito and cute table pancake! The portions are generous and the potatoes are well crisped, and I really appreciated the sauce containers and attention to detail in plating.

Fig jam matcha
Megan W.

Came to the coffee window they have which is nice for take away. Their seasonal matcha was a fig jam which sounded good but was just fig jam smeared on the cup, needed a fig syrup to change the flavor any. Otherwise pretty good matcha, quick and friendly service.

-Breakfast Platter
Apolonia E.

I came to Café Maud with my kids after my son's soccer game, and I'm so glad we decided to stop by. We came for breakfast, and everything we ordered was so delicious. My son went straight for the chicken lollipops and enjoyed every bite. My daughter loved the açaí bowl it was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I ordered the breakfast platter, which was cooked perfectly, and my son devoured his pancakes. I treated myself to a strawberry matcha, and it was amazing. Our server, Kia, was so nice and took such good care of us. Even though we didn't have reservations, the staff still took us as walk-ins and sat us at the side bar so the kids could be comfortable. I'm really glad we arrived early because just as we sat down, the place started filling up quickly and soon there were people waiting. The space itself is beautiful the décor, the lighting, all the little details make it feel cozy and stylish at the same time. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and the outdoor area is nicely covered now that the weather is getting colder. Overall, it was such a great experience. We'll definitely be back!

Came here on a holiday, so everywhere we went had a long wait. Cafe Maud was able to seat us right away but at the back of their restaurant which is also their bar. I didn't mind as it was a lot quieter but the tables were smaller so it was hard to fit all our food on one table. The interior/overall decor of this place is really nice. Honestly, had I looked at the menu beforehand, I probably wouldn't have come here. I ordered a breakfast platter and pizza. Both were good but I've had better. The bacon was too thick for my liking. I enjoyed the home fries the most.

--Breakfast Burrito
Sandy X.

I came here at 10 am for brunch and got seated quickly. I got the breakfast burrito which was filled with eggs, avocado, beans, pico and bacon. There was also a side salad and potatoes. This was a filling meal and would come back to try other items.

Martini
Ayda N.

What's better than some martinis with pizza, cesear and a bowl of fries with your gals?! Such a good spot!

This was my husband's first trip to NYC, so OF COURSE he needed to have a proper New York pie. And…read moreI love a thin, crispy crust, so John's definitely did not disappoint. They sat us upstairs along the balcony overlooking the main dining room, and the decor... honestly, just look at the photo because I don't even know how to describe it The space used to be a church, and it is SO cool inside. Definitely not your average pizza joint. This place is popular -- there were plenty of people eating -- but surprisingly, our wait wasn't long at all. And even with all the bodies in there, it never felt crammed or uncomfortable. We ordered a small pizza and did half Shrimp Fra Diavolo and half Margherita. The Fra Diavolo had a little kick, but nothing crazy -- and this is coming from someone who cannot handle big spice The Margherita had just the right amount of basil and mozzarella, and that crispy crust was exactly what I wanted. Although there was no major cheese pull, it was still perfect. The small was plenty for the two of us and honestly just perfect. We also had a couple cocktails, which were delicious too. I always say NYC food pricing is kind of deceiving. You look at the price and go, "Ummm..." but then the food comes out and you realize they give you A LOT. Definitely felt like we got our money's worth here. Great pizza, really cool atmosphere, and a fun first NYC pizza experience for the husband. Happy Eating, Chass

Bustling doesn't seem to fit, it was packed to the gills. John's is extremely spacious, and even with that much space, we had a substantial wait. The wait was worth it though because they know how to do pizza. The crust just crisp enough, the sauce flavorful, and the toppings plentiful. The service was friendly and quick given the number of people there. For my first trip to NYC, I'd make this a traditional stop for future visits.

I can't stop thinking about their pizza…read more.. Yesterday was my first time dining at See No Evil Pizza, but I'd tried it before. Last year, I was at Nothing Really Matters, the bar next door, with a group of friends. Someone ordered pizza, and I had no idea where it came from. I just remember thinking, "Wow, this pizza is really good." That memory stuck with me, so when a friend and I decided to stop by See No Evil Pizza yesterday, I was excited to finally visit. I didn't realize reservations were recommended, but thankfully Ariel, the host, was able to fit us in. Ariel was fantastic - he was friendly, welcoming, and so accommodating despite us showing up without a reservation. Ariel provided excellent service from the moment we walked in until we left. I didn't take any photos, which I now regret, because their pepperoni pizza was salty, addictive, and just really, really good. The pepperoni was crisp, the crust had that perfect char and crunch, and I couldn't stop reaching for another slice. The restaurant is small, cozy, and inviting. If you've been thinking about checking this place out, go for it. You won't regret it.

I loved our experience here! The vibe is so cool, with great music and even greater service. It was…read moreso fun to sit at a high top and watch people going into and out of the subway. The white wine sangria was tasty, but I regret to say my partner nor I totally loved the pizza - it was quite greasy, which made it very wet and heavy to eat. Aside from that, though, I thought the flavors were great - the sogginess just distracted from it. Overall such a fun place to go!

It is such a cute place that deeply honors its heritage and ancestry, and their understanding of celiac disease immediately put us at ease. They explicitly let us know they use a dedicated oven and explained what pizzas can be made gluten free. They also have a dedicated fryer for all their gluten-free items, which is a massive relief for anyone with strict dietary needs. To drink, I ordered an Aperol Spritz, though you will want to double-check with the staff since a few of their other cocktails are not gluten-free. We kicked off our meal with the gluten-free arancini and a gluten-free Margherita pizza, and the pizza was genuinely delicious. They even offer gluten-free desserts, so we naturally went all-in on the fried dough with Nutella to finish things off. Aside from the incredible food safety and quality, the service and staff were fantastic. They were constantly attentive, clearing empty plates and bringing new ones throughout the meal. If you are looking for a safe and amazing gluten-free dining experience, this spot is an absolute gem!

Returned to one of my favorite pizza eateries and had to share the exact same meal that made me…read morefeel that way. We started with two fabulous drinks: An Espresso Martini and their signature Limoncello Margarita. We shared the Shaved Brussel Sprout Salad and it was fabulous. The bits of bacon, combined with the spiciness of the pepper spices, made this a perfect starter. The entree was also shared and it was the Spicoli 2.0 Pizza. I cannot recommend this pie, enough. You will taste flavors that you've probably never experienced before with a pizza. Also, the different textures of the arugula, creaminess of the cheese, and the perfect crust will make it a memorable selection. For dessert, we shared the Buttermilk Panna Cotta. Each spoonful of those strawberries, dancing with the firm custard and glaze, made this a stupendous cap to the meal.

Do people not realize that putting a bar near a door on a freezing cold night benefits no one? Good thing I did not order alcohol or I would have froze to death. Seriously, none of the pies stood out in grand memory. All I can think of is, well, nothing. Nothing positive anyway. The names of the pies are funny, and the staff is friendly, but besides that, the quality of the food for lack of a better word, dare I say it, sucks. Hoping to salvage the meal, I ordered their Chicken Parmesan. It was the Hail Mary pass that unfortunately did not connect. The cutlets are overcooked and dry, and the red sauce cooked with it has minimal tomato flavor. At least the spaghetti is cooked to a nice al dente and mellow garlic butter flavor, but like the sauce cooked in, it is also minimal. Part of the problem I feel is they are trying to go for a vibe that has a New York and modern feel. It does not work. Stay true to one or the other. Or at least look at other business models. I will use another pizzeria in Bushwick that exemplifies it perfectly. It is a hipster pizzeria in a hipster neighborhood. Through balance, it creates an ambiance both welcoming and warm without losing any of its Bushwick character. It does this by not beating you over the head with hipster vibes, just enough to let you know that you are in Bushwick. The band Franz Ferdinand was playing as I was wrapping up. Rather than take the pizza out, I suggest you throw it out. Overall pizza rating: 1.7/5

Walking into Bardough will make you want to kill your phone the second you hit the bottom step…read morebecause the ambiance here is dialed in perfectly. The first thing you notice is the main bar wall, with its exposed centuries-old brick that has survived every bit of chaos this city could throw at it. It's subtly backlit from with a warm, amber glow that highlights every single historic groove and imperfection, making the whole room look like it's breathing. I have to say the centerpiece of the entire narrow room is the bar itself, and let me tell you, it is an absolute stunner of a contrast. Instead of the usual dark, sticky tavern wood, they've dropped in a long, continuous slab of pristine, elegantly smooth white stone. It glows under the soft lighting like a block of polished marble. There are no strobe lights and no obnoxious, skull-rattling bass in this joint. Instead, the room is wrapped in a blanket of incredibly chill music that matches the pulse of the room perfectly. It's just loud enough to drown out the noise in your own head, but quiet enough that you don't have to scream over the smooth white counter to be heard. People aren't here to be seen on TikTok; they're here to disappear for an hour or three. You slide into a chair, order a proper Old Fashioned from a bartender who doesn't rush the pour, and watch the ice melt against the amber-lit brick. It's the ultimate underground exhale--a perfect, narrow slice of peace in a city that never shuts up. Cheers!
