The fish was perfectly crispy & airy on the outside while juicy on the inside, and the sauce was so well-balanced. Leaving so full & grateful

Go with a date, solo, or friends. You won't regret it.

I've been slowly chowing my way through all the oyster happy hours the city has to offer. When I…read morefound myself galavanting in Bushwick on arguably the coldest day of the year, Ten Bells popped up as a natural haven where I unwrapped myself and indulged in my favorite food of the season. Right off the bat, the bar area is absolutely gorgeous and meets you with so much warmth, light and joy as soon as you walk in to this establishment. I plopped myself on the bar and had the pleasure of making conversation with Elouise and Alejandra. They put in my standard two dozen oyster order and paired my platter with a glass of the happy hour white wine which happens to be their house chardonnay. The oysters were delicious although I must say there was a lot of shell pieces inside, which was very annoying to eat. I don't think this is necessarily the fault of whoever is shucking them. I noticed the oysters they serve have a lot of thin slivers of shell on the edges which are bound to end up in your mouth. Perhaps they can try serving another variety of oysters? Just a thought. The chardonnay was pretty good and service was amazing. The girls at the bar also let me try the Ten Bells red wine which is produced specially for them in Boudreaux, France. It was a beautiful, light, and smooth red blend. As a wine lover, I will definitely be back to try more of their wines on tap. This is a great neighborhood establishment that I feel everyone should pop in and visit!!

Oysters were $1 each which was great price however, they were not the best or worth ordering again in my opinion. Wings were also not something my guest enjoyed. Service wasn't bad but always wasn't super busy. Staff were attentive though. Not sure I'd want to return to try more but maybe experience might be different for others.

As a note, we also ordered the pretzel to share and my god she was gigantic!

The service outside was a tad slow but the server was very kind, and the croissant breakfast sandwich I ordered was yummy, bacon was nice and crispy but a little too much cheese. Nice that it comes with home fries too. Overall I liked my experience here, and they have fun events almost every night it seems. I don't think I'll be a regular but it's good to have around.

The ambiance indoors is such a vibe for a GNO or girls night, even a solo date at the bar (confirmed just as nice!). The steak frites x bottle of wine HH is $69 and amazing.

I ended up seeing a few of my people and was able to sit w/ them at one of the booths. It was definitely crowded the night I went. Anywho, it's a super cute wine bar. They do a great steak frites & fried chicken sando that I shared w/ three other people. It was great getting to taste everything. They had the orange wine which they loved. I ordered a gimlet, it wasn't the best. That's what happens when your at a wine bar. However, I will not be giving this spot up just b/c of that. I may have been an off night for the bartender. We'll see next time.

The guy whose popup it was was from Mamacha Empanadas and he makes sure to recommend both of the salsas. I wish I had gotten at least 4 more, it was that good.

When we came in, it was like stepping into a new time period. The vibes were dark, cozy, and pretty close to my imagination of what a bar in a pirate ship would be like. As the night went on, the crowd grew as they were drawn in by the live jazz band playing. The menu was extensive with so many types of interesting cocktails to select at $15 per drink. I enjoyed the Gouldian Finch (I liked it so much I ordered it again) and the Damsel in Distress.  Highly recommend if you're in the area and if you're in the mood for good drinks with great company, great staff and a great live jazz band.
