    Maple old fashion
    Kim M.

    Place is small but cute. Located in industry city. I thoroughly enjoyed my cocktail. They make and use their own product which is really nice. The bourbon is smooth and nice on the palate. The service was good but the pours on both drinks were very un even. Even the prices were different. So, I'm not sure what to think of this. They have classes fri-Sunday which I'm super interested in. Overall really cool vibe and place. Fills up quickly though!

    Went with some friends to check out local businesses and this place was awesome! Incredible service, friendly staff, lots of space and most of all incredible drinks!!! my friends are I ended up staying for hours playing card games and laughing with staff. 10/10 would recommend anyone come try this place out!

    This feels like a secret hide out that's far enough away from the maddening crowds to avoid being too busy or impersonal, but also serves up high quality crafted spirits in local taste. The double barrel rye and gin are top of my list, and they have a great menu of cocktails to help you get inventive and flavorful with both of them. They also have a few nice mocktails for the no-alcohol crowd looking to keep things classy without the tipsy. I also love the hang out space with pool tables and big cozy sofa and papasan chair- just a nice overall hangout space to gather with friends.

    Late with this review, but better late than never! FHD was the location for my new employer's holiday party. They did not supply the food, but they supplied the libations, ambience and service. The drink menu is extensive and the bartenders were able to keep up and get orders out pretty quickly, while being pretty personable and fun. The distillery is pretty spacious with slightly sectioned off areas, which was very comfortable to say the least. I did not drink a lot (2 cocktails), because I just started working with this company plus I just don't overdo drinking at company functions, despite having a high tolerance for alcohol. Nonetheless, I had a Hamilton Mule, which was delicious. I would definitely revisit with friends or solo, just because I think it's a cool spot with good drinks and cool bartenders.

    My family and I had a fun time checking out this distillery, where we got to learn about the history and the making process of their delicious whiskey, which is distilled New York-style. It We ended up doing their tour, which consisted of fun facts, an awesome and yet informative tour guide, and best of all quality whiskey! They also have a little game room on the other side where you can chill and enjoy the vibes after your tour. You can also grab a drink or two at their bar. This is def a fun thing to do if you're looking to try something new.

    GOTTA Love a local distillery and this one not only has awesome liquor, but a really great ambiance and cool staff with a lot of knowledge on their products with recommendations if you don't know where to start. The entrance is on the second level of Industry City so you can get in through the courtyard staircase. I love whiskey but they also had some gin which was quite aromatic and good for a summer cocktail. I got the Maple Syrup Old Fashioned which was just perfect. NOT sweet which was exactly what I wanted- just a HINT of maple. really delicious. There's a saloon right across the hall with pool tables and LOTs of other great local businesses in the area so you can come for drinks and food and fun! I'm a fan of Rye and theirs was good too so definitely worth going to for a few drinks on weekends or even weekdays!

    I've come here several times in the past including my Birthday the past two years and have had a whiskeylicious time every time! In the past two years they have expanded their space and now have a Pool Table and a corny situation with Corn Hole as well. The Whiskey is fantastic with my favorites being the Bourbon and Cask Strength Rye. They also make a Maple Bourbon Syrup which is amazing to put on Waffles! The service is always spot on as for our last visit Haley did our tasting and was lovely. Always a fun vibe when visiting! It's a trek for me to come out but I always love stopping by!

    Walked into Bar Mario in Red Hook like I was just "stopping in for one drink." Rookie mistake…read more This place feels like it's been here forever--in the best way. Cozy, old-school Italian vibes, staff speaking Italian like they're judging you lovingly, and Negronis that'll make you rethink every bad decision you've ever made at a bar. I ordered the lasagna because a man should test a kitchen on its fundamentals. Absolute home run. Rich, layered, comforting--felt like someone's nonna was in the back nodding in approval. No notes. No leftovers. Bar Mario isn't trying to be trendy. It's just confident, timeless, and quietly excellent. The kind of spot where you come hungry, leave happy, and start planning your next visit before you even hit the sidewalk.

    I have now been to Bar Mario several times, and it is absolutely worth a 5-star review…read more First, the ambience is terrific. It's not a huge restaurant (so I would make a reservation): a few 2- and 4-seat high tops, maybe 6 or 7 tables, and a bar with about 10 seats. But the environment is warm and cozy, with low lighting and music loud enough to enjoy, soft enough to have conversations with your party, the bartender, or whoever else. The servers are all excellent. Very charming and friendly. They check in often, but not in an intrusive way. I've also seen the owner walking around, greeting customers, and talking with his staff. He's always around, and he's a friendly presence. There's such a great neighborhood vibe here - there are definitely some regulars here, and it helps create a homey atmosphere. The food here is outstanding. I have not had a bad dish here. The Caesar salad is actually made with several long stalks of romaine, so it stays crisp. The meatballs come with polenta around the plate, and it is fantastic. I've also had the hangover spaghetti (excellent) and the lasagna (amazing). Their calamari also has a few shrimp and (I think) some bay scallops, so that's a great addition. And their cocktails are outstanding - potent but flavorful. I don't get a chance to go to Red Hook much, but when I do, I definitely want to stop here. It's on the "main road" of Red Hook, and there are definitely some cute shops and coffee places around, and of course, there's Ikea not too far. This restaurant, though, deserves your business.

When we walked in, we got the warmest welcome from her. Her name is Debbie. I have a 10yrs old also and she immediately started having a conversation with her. When she sat us in the dinning room, she let us know there were 2 servers for the night with a 1 bus boy. She mentioned them by name and I loved that. We were attended to by Keith. He was such a gem. He recommended so really great choices for us. This is what we had. For drinks, my husband and my son had the Red Hook which they loved. I don't drink so I had the Captain Jack Mocktail. Appetizers- Seafood Tower and Rhode Island Calamari. OMG the calamari is a must try. It has a little kick but you will thank me later. I little heat never hurt nobody. Dinner- we all shared the Gala Apple Salad, Porter House, Linguini and Clams, Lundy's Potatoes, and Mac and Cheese. Dessert- The Butterscotch Sundae my daughter hogged, and the Lundy's Huckleberry Pie. Now let me tell you. I do not eat huckleberry pie, but that one, I could not believe how tasty. The crust was hard and sweet and the filling had the right flavor. Not too sweet or tart. All throughout dinner my husband and my son kept saying how great the food was. It was truly amazing and the service was great, with only 3 working and staying attentive to several tables. I would definitely come back. Maybe for a girls night next time.

The space is so amazing it feels like someone crossed a historic landmark with a movie set and said, "Yeah, make it bigger." The bar? HUGE. A beautiful behemoth. It's the kind of bar you walk up to and instantly feel like you should order something classy just because the bar itself demands respect. You don't sip here--you pose. Live music had the whole place vibing like it was Brooklyn's own little Mardi Gras. Menu? Straight-up banger after banger. I kept reading items like I was scanning a treasure map. Drinks? Too good. Dangerous-good. "I should slow down but I won't" good. Now the oysters... Listen. Freshest in the five boroughs. FRESHEST. Like they practically filled out a change-of-address form from the ocean to your plate. But the true heavyweight champion of this place? Chef Steve Mannino. A culinary force. A flavor wizard. A gastronomic gladiator. The man cooks like he's trying to win a title belt every night. If Brooklyn had a Mount Rushmore of chefs, he'd already be carved in granite, smiling with a shucker in his hand. Service was on point, hospitality turned up to 11, and the whole vibe made us feel like VIPs with zero business being VIPs. If you want a meal that slaps, sings, sparkles, and maybe even changes your mood for the week, Lundy Brothers is the move. Over-the-top amazing. Already planning my return like it's a holiday.

My friend ordered the butterfly field mocktail, which I highly recommend if you're not in the mood for alcohol, it was absolutely delicious. I ordered two of their signature cocktails: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea (best way I can describe it is it's like a high end cologne in cocktail form, but in the best way possible? Very complex flavors) and the Queen of the Desert (cool refreshing cucumber followed by a spicy heat in the back of your throat, grew on me over time). Food was also quite good. I enjoyed the truffle popcorn and I still have no idea how they made those lemongrass chicken ginger dumplings so yummy (I normally don't even like chicken dumplings bc they're usually not as juicy as pork, but these didn't have that problem). They gave us a tiny sample of one of their house-made liquors at the end-- let me tell you, I'm not the biggest fan of just having liquor on its own but dang, that went down sooooo smoothly.
