    Interior Wall when you walk in on the Right...  Robert Moses Bridge

    Went here on a Sunday night for drinks after having dinner elsewhere. Got there probably 10:45 ...place was pretty busy w/people drinking & some eating burgers & wings. Bartender was GREAT!! OUR 1st time there since redone....gorgeous!!!! Great night there until probably 1:30? Definitely will be back & hopefully to try food....we had draft beers & a few drinks....bartender made a cocktail for one friend he never heard of but friend told him what was in it & tried it out...it was pretty close he said 9 out of 10 so I'd say a win win!!

    24 wings on the football menu

    Great spot in this area. Bartenders are friendly and well versed on cocktails, beer, and the food menu. Always has a nice atmosphere...live music, friendly locals, great food, and different spots to sit make this an awesome go to. And their wings are DEFINITELY the BEST in town. Crispy, just the right amount of sauce, and big too...way better wings here than at other spots in the area known for their wings...I've had a few other items from the menu and they have all been really good also. The reason they are only at 3 stars instead of 4 is because we waited a while for our wings and then the kitchen put the wrong sauce on them so they had to remake them...so now we had to wait even longer and it was just an "oh, sorry"...I think if you're running a kitchen and make a mistake where someone is waiting a ridiculously long time for something to be remade they should offer a drink, or discount the food...something...but nothing was offered so that's where I felt they lack a bit.

Despite being full the service was excellent and the restaurant was not overly loud. We enjoyed 3 courses each - mushroom strudel / goat cheese tart were our appetizers, for our meal we both had the skirt steak and for dessert my wife enjoyed the peanut butter/chocolate and I had the pistachio mousse. All of the items were delicious. Much better than we had expected and served quickly. I would recommend this restaurant highly and we look forward to going back again many times in the future.

When you walk in you see a large clementine inspired painting and a long bar which is the focal point of this compact restaurant . There is limited seating so you should definitely make a reservation . Our server was so friendly and polite .He continually checked in at our table to see if we needed anything .Thank you ! The menu is unique , offering a lot of creative dishes . We started with some cocktails, although the Clementine Cocktail is the signature drink I opted for the Quilty Pleasure , it was excellent made with tequila,coconut cream and strawberry .Yum! We then shared several appetizers starting with the mussel special served with warm soft bread for dipping .There was more than enough for the four of us to share . The mussels were delicious and perfectly cooked in the most delicate, flavorful light sauce . We also tried the mushroom arancini and mushroom strudel , both amazing and tasty. I ordered the Sliced Steak Sandwich which was served with fries and a small salad. It was quite a large portion , too much for one person to eat , definitely shareable ! The steak was seasoned perfectly and so tender. The red onion jam was the perfect complimented to this sandwich! The fries were very thin , tasty and crisp but on the salty side . Everyone enjoyed their dinners! Although I do feel the menu is a bit on the pricy side the food as well as the service was outstanding . I would definitely recommend stopping in and checking out this restaurant for yourself!
