    Burger Classique w/ Sweet Potato Fries
    Gordon Y.

    Cuisine: 6 Service: 7 Decor: 8 Value: 7 Overall: 7 Last night, I was on my way to my usual Lovely's Old Fashioned for a burger when I saw this spot on 10th Avenue. Looked up Yelp reviews and was wow'ed by all the five star ratings. Therefore, I had to check it out to compare with my favorite burger in the area. Upon entering, the narrow shop provides a wide counter on the right full of board games and even a small Pac Man game machine. Guess some people come in and game a little while they eat. This shop definitely gives off the family friendly neighborhood vibe that locals may appreciate. As for the food, there were two of us, so we shared a Burger Classique and Cub's Pub. For some reason, the Burger Classique came out lukewarm and very dry. It was not enjoyable at all. Honestly, if this burger is the only one we shared, we would not come back again for sure. However, the Cub's Pub was served hot and quite delicious. The combination of Swiss cheese and caramelized onions, along with the black pepper aioli and tangy sauce, was great. Btw, our Sweet Potato Fries were good, but not as crispy as expected since we specifically requested "extra crispy." Regardless, they were satisfactory. On the other hand, the Fried Onion Rings were a fail. We didn't like the batter and the onions were barely noticeable. I would possibly come back for that burger or try the more Sylvester Smash, which is more of a smash burger. They also have a Chopped Cheese and hot dog that I would get next time.

    Really delicious and affordable! Very nice staff and super fast service. There are games scattered about while you wait or dine. Very clean. The burgers were cooked to perfection and the fries / onion rings were delicious.

    Great local spot on 10th Avenue with fresh delicious hamburgers and fries. Recently ordered delivery, came quickly and everything was hot. The grilled cheese and tomato soup special looks so good. If you dine in there is plenty of seating. There are weekly specials such as the Community Combo where you get a burger and fries for $11.00 with $1 from the sale going directly to supporting clubs/sports at Beacon High School around the block. I've met the owner a few times at community events and he's a really nice guy. Go!

    Delicious !!!!! I will be back. Cute burger spot. Taste fresh. Sweet potato fries were also 10/10! Super quick and warm spot. Great service

    Wow just an amazing experience, I was visiting NYC for the weekend and just needed food and this was near by didn't think much of it but it far exceeded my expectations. The owner/employee was outside waiting and brought us in, he was super nice. We ordered and sat down and it was so cool. There were games you could play while eating like tic tac toe or chess etc and even Pac-Man! It was such a cool vibe. The food was really good and the shakes were as well I had a burger which was a perfect medium well. Such a cool and good " hole in the wall" 10/10

    Fun art inside

    Does the trick if you need a quick burger. Though I think I prefer Lovely's nearby. But this place does have fun little games spattered throughout the narrow restaurant. Cub's Pub: I do like how this was a double cheeseburger, so quite meaty. Nice soft sesame bun. But the whole thing felt kinda dry. I imagine they added aioli and tangy sauce, since it was on the menu. But I had to keep dipping it in ketchup. So not ideal.

    The Greaser
    Carmen W.

    This is a small little restaurant me and my friends stopped and holy heck is it really good! It's very small but it has very cute art works on the wall and the food is AMAZING! My sandwich "the greaser" was basically a grilled cheese with bacon and tomato on SOURDOUGH and it was genuinely an amazing sandwich. I also had a strawberry milkshake and it was very good, wasn't too thick or sugary so it went really well with my food. This place also plays really good music and the staff were very friendly!

    Burger with fries

    Great burger, great value, and great service! I came here to get a burger, fries, and a shake and was so happy with what I got! The veggie burger is a garden burger style patty and super delicious with the various toppings and the regular burger was cooked perfectly and so flavorful! There was an option for Cajun fries or regular so we got one of each and I think the regular was better. We got a cookies and cream shake and it was so creamy, perfectly sweet, and cold. The best part was that the worker was so friendly and helpful - it felt like having a friend make a meal for you. I will definitely be back for burgers and to try the other shake flavors!

    I wandered in to Hell's kitchen and found Cubby's. I ordered a Sylvester Smash and some fries. My Burger was tasty, but small. The Fries were very salty. Cubby's adds a 3.5 percent surcharge for credit cards. $20.51 for lunch. Thank U next!

    This place was so cute. It's small but the take out game is on point. We stopped in for lunch and there weren't enough seats for us so we got take out. We both had their hamburger lunch combo. It's $16.50 and it's their burger, soda, fries, and ice cream. The ice cream was surprisingly way better than I'd expect from a burger place. We tried the pistachio and the strawberry and their bright bright colors were a little scary but absolutely delicious. The cashier mentioned they usually have punch cards but they're out so we got some super cute stickers! I already recommended this place to my parents for when they want a treat.

    I discovered Cubby's through Classpass and have now been back a few times. It's a fantastic treasure nestled within the beauty that is Hell's Kitchen. It's a quaint locale that exudes charm and charisma that brings you back to a simpler time. Charles, the owner, "gets it" and truly cares about the community. I am leading with this, because all great businesses need an iron-clad foundation, and his leadership provides this. The first few times I ordered there I got the burger, but this time I ordered a breakfast sandwich. Hands down the best breakfast sandwich, I have ever eaten. Food, ambiance, culture. This place has it all, and if you are in the area do yourself a favor and stop by! Kevin R.

    Sylvester Smash Burger and Fries

    Stumbled upon this place after the intrepid museum and so glad I did! The space was so cute and clean and had an assortment of games, cookbooks, and an arcade game. The food came out quickly and was fresh and absolutely delicious! Prices are also extremely reasonable and the owner also could not be nicer. Definitely recommend!

    Custom Burger
    Vanessa J.

    Let me just say this place is a 9/10 for burgers ! I opted for the custom burger which had , lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, pepper jack cheese with a black pepper aioli. Let me just say it was delicious! I loved how fresh all the ingredients were and how well made the burger was! I definitely devoured it haha. The fry's I got had old bay seasoning but they were overly fried which wasn't bad but didn't have the soft texture of fries. Overall the place is a small but fun spot with games on the counter for you to play like uno and connect 4 and cute for a date nite or just to hang with friends over some good burgers! Also the service was quick and pleasant.

We were thrilled to find two seats at the end of the bar when we arrived. As luck would have it, the two gentlemen next to us eventually left, allowing us to slide over and enjoy an even better view of the TV for the rest of the game. I started with a Tito's and club soda, but unfortunately, something seemed off--perhaps the club soda was flat. The drink just wasn't good. To their credit, the bartender took it back without hesitation and was very accommodating. I then ordered a Negroni after the woman sitting next to us highly recommended it. I don't usually drink gin, but this cocktail was absolutely delicious and changed my mind. Since we were there for several hours, we shared an order of zucchini and eggplant chips and happily snacked on them throughout the game. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, with a nice mix of ages and people enjoying the evening. We made sure to leave our bartender a generous tip since we occupied our seats for the entire game. Even though the Knicks didn't pull out a win that night, we certainly didn't leave defeated. I'd happily return for another game, cocktail, and fun evening out. And maybe even get dinner there. Little did I know there was another big room in the ack once you past the restrooms. They were having a thriving business there!

Our return visit was a completely different experience. I appreciate the way the owner handled the situation and his willingness to have an open conversation with us. It doesn't change what happened that first night, but it did change my impression of how much he cares about his guests and his business. I wanted my review to reflect that as well.

Two-part, proper settle, tight dome, no rushing it. That's rarer than it should be in Midtown where half the bars treat a stout like a lager. Whoever's behind the bar here has been trained or grew up around it. Food's better than a second-floor pub between 5th and 6th has any right to be. The JRB burger comes on a house-ground patty (they grind in-house, and you can tell, loose texture, actual seasoning), caramelized onions cooked down all the way, not just softened, good cheese pull. Fried pickles on the side had a crisp cornmeal shell and stayed crunchy under the burger juices, which never happens. Buttermilk chicken salad was the surprise. Chicken actually brined, crust stayed on, greens weren't an afterthought. Only real knock: music was loud. Not sports-bar loud, more like the bartender's playlist got away from him. Fine at the bar, harder at a table if you want to talk. Room's got real bones. Reclaimed barn wood, old rail track as a foot rest, that big 45-star flag on the wall. Been here almost 20 years and it's aged into itself. For the neighborhood the pricing's fair. Beats P.J. Clarke's on the burger, loses on quiet. Go for a beer and a burger, not a date.
