    Happy Hour Bar Menu
    Hope S.

    When does Happy Hour turn into almost five hours? When you're at Ensenada Bay, that's when!! A co worker mentioned this new establishment where the old Tony Cuban, then Seafood Grill On The Bay used to be. It is now a lovely, vibrant eatery only open two months, where the drinks are strong, the music is lively and the Mexican eats are delicious! We arrived for their 4p-7p happy hour around 5:15p. At first we were the only ones seated at the bar. The friendly bartender Jorge, took our drink orders and we ordered food from the HH menu. The Bar Sampler consisted of 2 empanadas, calamari and chicken wings. The wings had some kick to the them and the empanadas were tasty. The calamari was a bit too chewy for my taste but, was seasoned well. By the time Ericka our second bartender started and introduced herself, the bar was buzzing with lots of happy folks! Ericka took our two tacos and shrimp ceviche order, those dishes were both packed with savory goodness! I am looking forward to coming back here for dinner in the gorgeous dining room. The outside patio overlooking the water is closed now but, I can't wait to return when it opens in spring/summer!! Support a new business with a warm vibe, friendly staff and good food and drinks, you won't be disappointed! Thank me later.....

    Would highly recommend coming to try the Happy Hour menu and Taco Tuesday tacos/margaritas and sit outside to enjoy the beautiful view of the water. There was a bit of miscommunication about the Happy Hour specials on Fridays (no longer available on Fridays but are on other weekdays), as others have mentioned, but Wilmer was responsive over email and generously resolved the issue, which we appreciated. The outdoor bartender Matt, was friendly, kind, and super helpful - he made the visit 5 stars for us. Raw Oysters and the shrimp taco were both good. The birria taco (sauce quite spicy), ribeye taco, and corn ribs were excellent. Chips and salsa were great too. The menu has a lot of creative options and we look forward to trying more items. -Amanda

    Food was great, service was spectacular, this place is new and honestly I loved the decor! Beautiful and refreshing to the neighborhood. We had the prefix menu and it was great food for the price. The only downfall is the churro dessert accidentally had a kitchen mistake of adding garlic mix as a topping on the ice cream instead of a nut mix. I will definitely be coming back again even so.

    Finally a classy and beautiful restaurant to enjoy that has an outdoor by the water. Food and the staff are superb very attentive and very professional. A big recognition to the best waitress and waitress to Wilmer and Hillary.

    I met a friend here for dinner and drinks to chill outside. There was also a big indoor dining…read morespace. We sat right across from the bar which was packed. Apparently, there was an event that night and the evening turned into a party night on a Tuesday, LOL. I ordered some chicken tacos with fries and my friend ordered some wings. We both ordered rum punch and everything was good and hit the spot. The DJ was playing some great music and we were up on our feet dancing after we ate. The staff were real sweet and accommodating. This is definitely a place to chill and unwind. We only saw the bar menu so I cant speak for the indoor menu and other available items. I would return to check out some other menu items and hear some good music.

    I tried this establishment after seeing several Instagram posts giving them praises. Here's my take…read morebased off my experience: - The staff workers were friendly and professional. - Drinks were really good. - Food was mediocre and not worth the price. - My friend and I were told that tables were saved for reservations, and we had to sit at the bar inside to eat. We were there for 2 hours and tables were still empty. So we could've sat at a table during our time. - We only ordered appetizers which took almost 45 minutes to come out. - I ordered fish tacos which tasted like the fish wasn't seasoned and mafinated at all. My friend had the same sentiment.

    AMAZING experience at Bourbon & Brews!…read more If you're looking for the perfect place to celebrate a birthday or special occasion for friends and family 21+, Bourbon & Brews is definitely the place to go! I had a birthday party with around 45 people, and everything was fantastic! The space was comfortable, spacious, and perfect for our group. The party package included a great virarity of food to pick from. I have different friends with different food preferences so the wide options to pick from really helped me plan a party for everyone to enjoy The bartenders who worked my party, John and Mel were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made GREAT drinks. There were plenty of tables and seating options, plus chairs at the bar, which gave everyone plenty of room to relax, mingle, and socialize. The BNB also provides card games and a dart board inside which makes the atmosphere lively and fun. I couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special occasion. Thank you, Bourbon & Brews, for helping make my birthday celebration so memorable! I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone planning a birthday, party, celebration or even just going inside for a drink or two. I can't wait to come back!

They served it to me with nothing on it even though I asked for honey hot sauce. I took one bite and I couldn't eat it. It didn't seem like food. Otherwise, I had an local IPA and onion rings and fried pickles--those were fine. We also waited 45 minutes to order even though barely anyone was there. The ambience is woody sports bar. They were playing early 2000s hard rock on the sound system, which fits perfectly with the feel of the place.

Great view on a sunny day. In the middle of the restaurant is an outdoor parking area. It doesn't look like many people use it/are allowed to. I personally loved the music- reggae, dancehall, soca, hip-hop & afrobeats but the volume is high so it's not a place for talking. Unfortunately, people don't dance here either, but they do smoke hookah. I don't, but it didnt bother me because we were outside. I did enjoy my steak and potatoes meal. ~$32 and a small portion, no veggies, my friend got her steak with rice and she said the rice was cold. Yikes. This was the most expensive thing on the small menu. We bought a bottle of vodka which came with a bottle girl and sparklers which was fun for the bday vibes. Also, cranberry, pineapple & lemonade mixers. Friends said they liked the burgers and fries. All in all, it seems like a good place to come if you're into the hookah/club scene. If not, stay very far away. Also, celebrity rapper Ghostface Killah was there With a big entourage. Have no idea if this is normal, but no one ran up to him.

They remember customers by name and genuinely make you feel like family. The menu is extensive, but what stood out most was the quality. The Friday shrimp bisque was creamy and loaded with baby shrimp. The chicken and waffle sliders were excellent, and the waffles were so soft and fresh that I honestly didn't even need the maple syrup. The Rise n' Shine Quesadilla was such a great modern breakfast option, packed with eggs, bacon, avocado, black beans, pico de gallo and plenty of cheese. The grilled steak panini was another standout -- the steak was cooked perfectly and was much better than what I'd normally expect from a diner panini. Of course, being at a diner, I had to try something Greek. The gyro wrap was excellent, with thinly sliced, tender and flavorful gyro meat. The biggest surprise for me was the Barolo Braised Short Ribs over whipped potatoes. The portion was huge, the short rib was fork-tender, and the quality honestly felt more like something you'd expect from a full-service restaurant. This was diner food elevated. They also make their desserts in-house downstairs. I tried the individual apple pie and strawberry cheesecake, and I loved that each one was its own little pie instead of just a slice. Both were adorable and delicious. Imperial Diner also has a full bar, curbside pickup and an outdoor patio when the weather is nice. You really don't have to be a "diner person" to enjoy this place. Between the food quality, huge variety and genuinely kind family behind it, Imperial Diner absolutely deserves to be in the conversation with the better diners on Long Island. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I tried and will definitely be back.

I've ordered a couple items from here before, including the French Onion Soup, Baked Potato, Philly Cheesesteak, Onions Rings, etc. All tastes pretty good at a decent price.
