    Stumbled into this place to have a drink while waiting for pizza next door. I've been to the deli many times and their food is phenomenal, but didn't have a chance to try this side of the speakeasy's food. The drinks however were strong, unique, and delicious. This is a welcomed addition to the neighborhood since the irish bar closed down next door and the east end bar on the other side can be a little crowded and rowdy. The relaxing atmosphere and moody dim lightning is the perfect setting for a romantic date in a more casual atmosphere. Can't wait to come back for a real night out and try some of the other drinks and food!

    The Korean food is incredible, especially the wings. The soju cocktails are also great.

    It's a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. Awesome music, great food. The Korean dishes are spot on! My new favorite neighborhood hang out.

Enough space to feel like you're not on top of each other, but not really a place for huge parties. Probably great to do a buyout for birthdays, etc. The happy hour (food & drink) is affordable with a nice selection and runs a good length of time (5-7pm). The non-happy hour menu is the real gem though. A little pricey for the neighborhood, but the quality is on par with cocktail bars down in the villages, so well worth it. Service is quick without being overbearing, and casual without being lazy. Handsome bartender and server. Better to make a reservation later into the night closer to and on the weekend because the space fills up fast. *will update this review when I've tried more of the food*

The Vibe Cozy, comfortable, and full of surprises. Some nights are mellow and chill, perfect for catching up with friends. Other nights, you'll walk in and it feels like a Colombian street festival -- music pumping, people celebrating, energy everywhere. The Drinks This is a cocktail-first spot, and their selection is next-level. If you don't know what to order, just tell the staff what flavors or spirits you like -- they'll craft something spot-on every time. Presentation? Always . The Food Yes, they have bites -- but don't come hungry. The small plates are designed to complement your drinks, not replace dinner. The Extras Live DJs, curated sets, and even surprise performances -- this place keeps things fresh and exciting without losing its cozy feel. The Staff Absolutely outstanding. Friendly, knowledgeable, and they make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Good vibes in, good vibes back. Overall, one of my favorite spots in the city. Whether you want a low-key Tuesday or a Saturday night that feels like carnival season, this place delivers every time.

    I don't even know where to begin. From the moment you walk in, the staff sets the tone--warm,…read moreattentive, and deeply intentional. There's a camaraderie in the room that invites you to slow down, connect, and truly experience both the conversation and the food. Everything feels considered. My best friend and I each ordered the prix fixe menu, and it was a journey from start to finish. I began with the Spicy Corn & Coconut Soup--honestly, unforgettable. The crispy shallots added just the right amount of texture against the velvety base, and each spoonful layered flavor in a way that felt both comforting and elevated. For my main, I had the kichuri, and Chef Alex Guzman absolutely shines here. He is a star--full stop. There's a clarity and confidence in his cooking that you can taste. The cilantro chutney was perfection, and the way the mint lingers alongside the spice... it's the kind of balance that only comes from someone who truly understands their craft. You can feel his care in every bite. I ended with the key lime pie, and all I can say is thank you. The whipped cream was fresh and airy, the lime zest bright without overpowering, and the crust tied everything together beautifully. It felt like a thoughtful, intentional close to an already incredible meal. I highly recommend starting with the guava mocktail, then pairing your main with the fig mocktail--both are perfectly crafted and complement the dishes so well. Also, sit at the bar. Let Dan guide you through the experience. Trust his recommendations--you will not be steered wrong. He elevates the entire evening. And the playlist? Y'all really did that.

I noticed the great ratings along with all the reviews and photos of the burger, so we decided to check it out. We ended up getting a table in the back room by the windows. The place has a very chill vibe. I also noticed they provide Uno cards, and a few people were playing while enjoying their drinks. I already knew what I was getting, the Winnie Smash ($18), a double-patty smash burger that comes with a house-style mac sauce and fries. The burger was solid, and I really enjoyed the crispy fries. I also ordered a side of BBQ sauce ($1.50). I washed it all down with a couple of draft beers. Overall, I had a good experience and would recommend this place if you're looking for good food and drinks in a laid-back atmosphere. * Street parking * Sunday Football special

Me and my partner split the double cheesecake smash burger - it was amazing! Golden brioche with a saucey, chessey interior without losing the delicious patties. It was like an elevated Big Mac. Highly recommend. Was able to chill at the bar and watch the Knicks game - the whole time. The energy was at a high. If you are going for a major sporting game, get there early. The staff was very kind and helpful. A bit of upselling but not the end of the world. Definitely add to your list if you are in West Harlem if you want a fun, elevated cocktail with a whimsical food menu to match. This is your place.

Bird in Hand has a lineup of fun weekly events (Oyster Mondays, trivia nights, and more), plus a delightfully eccentric cocktail menu. My partner and I tried the Bambi and Strawberry Fields Forever, and both were outstanding. Bonus points for being a cocktail bar that actually has great food. The fried chicken dinner plate was excellent--crispy on the outside, remarkably juicy on the inside. A fantastic first impression, and definitely not my last visit

    Lovely room, attentive service, food fell short…read more We visited Bird In Hand on a recent evening while in town visiting our son in Hamilton Heights. The space itself is genuinely beautiful -- dim lighting, warm decor, and a moody, inviting atmosphere that makes it feel like a proper grown-up neighborhood spot. The service matched the room. Our server was attentive, gracious, and knowledgeable, and the front of house clearly knows what they're doing. The food, unfortunately, didn't live up to the rest of the experience. The pork chop arrived dry, which is hard to forgive on a cut that should be the kitchen's pride. The steak was competently cooked but unremarkable -- no real seasoning, no char to speak of, nothing that set it apart from a passable home-cooked version. For a restaurant at this price point, the kitchen should be delivering more. I'd happily come back for cocktails at the bar -- the n and the staff deserve that. But on the food alone, there are better options in the neighborhood.
