Just wanted to have a good time in Staten Island. We started the day off by the water, and asked…read morethe locals where we should go. They recommended, this spot. We drove all but four minutes down the street to the starlight for "hole in the wall". When walking in we were carded and immediately went to the bar to get a drink. Francis was such a delight throughout the evening, but so were the local folks! Met some cool people and had some great conversations! I hope my new friends, I meet last night see this post and know we had a great time! Thank YOU! i'd recommend this place if you're just passing through and in the area. If you're a friendly person and looking to have a chill night and meet some locals, this is the spot! Enjoy. Prices are right Services is great People watching is highly recommended

Want to talk about a magnificent dive, this is it right here! To be labeled an exceptional dive in…read moremy book is not something I take lightly. It's about a warm inviting encompassing feel along with cold cheap drinks. This place has all bases covered and then some, right here in Staten Island. $3 drafts as cold as an arctic breeze and $3 basic shots, hello. 4 flat screens to catch your favorite game or horse race. Long shuffle board. Juke box always banging. Friendly environment, in fact upon my first visit I was offered 4 free Yankee tickets, I gladly accepted. No need for quiche or caviar here plus they don't serve food lol, but guess what you're aloud to bring food in and there's several places within walking distance. Definitely predominately an older dude hangout, but all are clearly welcome. Next to the a train station and within some what close proximity to the Outer bridge. 14 or 15 seats at the bar. Fairly small, but nicely cozy. Yep this guy is a big fan and expect to see my checks in from time to time.

Quick review for Ho'Brah a Taco Joint in the New Dorp section of Staten Island…read more My son and I stopped in for a quick bite after a medical procedure where I had to basically fast a day prior. So of course food was necessary and the restaurant was around the corner from the doctor's office. It was roughly 3:00pm when we got there and we were the only customers on a dreary and rainy Tuesday afternoon. We sat in a booth and the bartender doubled as the waiter. I got the classic Ho Brah margarita and my son got a blueberry/lemonade smash. We ordered the guacamole and chips which came out quick. We then got the Birra and Blue Belle Ranch Pork Quesadillas. They were really good. We use to visit their location on Forest Avenue when we lived here ten years ago. The food was always fresh and always good back then and today was no different. There is no lot to park in but I got a spot in the street right in front. You do have to feed the meter but the parking meter is now an app.

It's been 3 years since I've been back to this place. The host was welcoming. The only issue we…read morekinda had was maybe because it was slow (we came around umm idk 1-2ish on a Saturday) and our waiter was taking to long to get our drinks and food. He was nice though but I saw he was also managing other tables and I get it but when I have 3 hangry kids it also puts me in a mood you know. Went to the bathroom too and for it being half empty it was really dirty. We ordered the trio sample appetizers. (Couldn't take a picture kids were starving) but we got shrimp, taco wonton, and pickle fries. Everything was good. (That or we were just starving lol) Kids ordered the chicken quesadilla and the kids Mac and cheese and I always think their kid portions are reasonable. I ordered their southwest chicken bowl. It had a bit of a kick, had pico, lettuce, corn, black beans, chicken, rice and a sauce I can't remember. I enjoyed it. The only thing was they gave me the very end of the lettuce. And it made the lettuce bitter but overall it would have been better if they hadn't done that. My husband ordered the whiskey burger with the broccoli. He said he enjoyed it but also felt the broccoli was going a little bad since it had a bunch of brown spots but he still at it. We waited a min for the waiter to come back so we could order dessert. Eventually we just ordered it through the tablet thing. Idk. Maybe service wasn't it today. But the staff was very friendly.
