The foods & the service was great! Came here on a cold January night in need of some good eats. There was a simple menu to choose from. Found the perfect burger. I got the El Barrio Burger because it had a sunny side up egg on top. YUMMM! The waiter told my friend and I about the frozen margaritas. I had a Tamarind margarita OMG that flavor was So BOMB! I could use one as I type this. Small place but the menu packs a punch.

Burger was raw not cooked as instructed

Ordered from Uber eats this was burger. I can get through on the phone from restaurant. Uber eats said can't refund me. I called and emailed the restaurant. I ordered plenty of times and no issues food was good. Never again.

Great burger, great flavors. The meat was well-seasoned, and the cheese pulled everything together nicely. The bun was lightly toasted, which added a nice texture. The fries were fresh and crispy. A great burger spot.

Clean comfortable cozy with a chill vibe, I really like this spot a lot. It's not a big fancy restaurant and has limited seating, but it's a nice upscale grab and go Burger Spot. It's located on the outskirts of the Bruckner Blvd and 138th St., down the block from Charlie's bar and Grill and made in Puerto Rico. The restaurant is located on the corner and while approaching I didn't notice a real presence, there's a small sign that could easily be missed. The menu has a limited variety of burgers, fries, and drinks but I will definitely go back again to try a few things on the menu.

Turkey Burger w/bacon (yep), cheddar cheese chipotle garlic mayo.

Ordered here twice. Top 3 list of Best burgers I've every tasted. It is pricey. You can be the judge on if it's worth it. 4 stars because for the price of the burger seems like it should come with fries. First time I just ended up with a burger, good thing it was lunch. Also, the fries are regular crinkly fries and only a handful get two learned this second time from ordering. Turkey Burger with chipotle garlic mayo I added bacon (judge me) lol, lettuce, tomato. It comes neatly half wrapped and they will cut it in half if you request. This burger was juicy, flavorful and everything tasted fresh. I forgot it was turkey. I ordered a second time and it was twice as nice. I had the exact same burger but added beef this time. The satisfaction was real. Craving a well made, well seasoned beef or turkey burger this is the spot.

Even the tea was the size of a water cup at McDonald's. For 4.50$... ridiculous

First off. I ordered a burger and wings with a Arnold Palmer. Which then got delayed twice via text message. My total ended up being about 38 dollars. Yikes!! The burger was SO small it could've been white castle honestly . I was so pissed looking at the portion sizes. The wings were also tiny. They basically cut the wing in half and called it two. so it was five small pieces. Also something about the tea is was a bit off.. it's very tart. And it's the size of a water cup. Not impressed. BUT I MUST SAY. Once I ate it. It was delicious. The burger was so soft and nicely grilled. The wings were crispy I'm just a bit mad I won't even be close to full for this amount of money. It's bit ridiculous. Unless they can do something about the portion sizes. Not sure I'll be back. I will be posting photos! You will see what I got is not worth the price .

Cheese fries

The food was delicious! But the night we went unfortunately there was no heat, so we had to keep our coats on, also they were completely out of chicken which is what my husband wanted that night. We'll consider coming back maybe when the weathers better.

Burger and fries at Milk Burger! (BX location)

A solid burger option in the South Bx! I had the El Barrio burger which was definitely flavorful and packed a punch with the egg and bacon. The staff are great and very courteous at the register, and bring your order to your table if you choose to dine-in. I appreciated that the burgers are cooked to order and not very greasy, a big win in my book. The ambiance is cozy, with exposed bricks and industrial design. The space is smaller, with about 5 or so tables and some bar seating at the window. Location is a short walk from either the Brook or Cypress Ave 6 train stations, so pretty convenient if you're in the area. Fair warning that burgers are on the smaller side than many may be used to. Expect to pay north of $20 for a burger and fries.

I like the Burger with the portobello mushroom. I usually get it with no Onions because I hate raw onions. Sometimes I get fries. The space is beautiful and they worked very hard to create something nice for the people of the area. East Harlem's loss was the south Bronx's gain. Disclaimer: Erik, the owner of Milk Burger, has been my friend for years and I count him as a brother. Maybe this means that I am easier on him, but I am sure he would agree, I would never give him any review he didn't deserve, good or bad.

This what the burger looked like! However that shake was different conversation!!!

Reviews are generally positive. Many highlight the flavorful burgers, sweet potato fries, and cozy atmosphere. Non-beef options and well-liked drinks also stand out.

Nothing to write home about. Staff was friendly but too much hype for a burger that's the size of a slider.

Good burger, but small. $16+ for a burger, fries and a can of coke is very expensive for the area. Parking is very difficult at lunch time.

Great Burger place. If you're hungry get the double. Table side service could be better, but everyone is friendly and the place is clean.

I actually discovered Azara by chance! I ran into a woman on the street who asked if I had been…read morethere, knowing I'm a foodie. I told her I hadn't, and she highly recommended it, especially the grilled branzino. She said, "You have to try it," and after that recommendation, I knew that was going to be my dinner! I'm so glad I listened. The branzino was cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The mashed potatoes were whipped beautifully, the plantains were delicious, and the grilled spinach was incredibly flavorful with just the right amount of garlic... exactly how I like it! The restaurant itself is super quaint and cozy, and the staff were warm, friendly, and helpful. My date had the lamb chops and absolutely loved them as well. It was such a lovely dining experience, and I left completely satisfied. I'll definitely be going back before I leave New York. If you're looking for a cozy spot with delicious, flavorful food and great service, I highly recommend Azara!

Clean, welcoming atmosphere. Beautifully decorated space. Both staff members that took care of us…read morewere kind and courteous. Onto the food, overall we really enjoyed our first time trying West African/ Nigerian food. We really liked the fried branzino with jollof rice, plantains and spicy sauce (atteike poisson). The two fish pieces were rather small, I'd recommend just ordering the whole branzino (Cassandra's poisson). In fact, we preferred this over fufu with Egussi soup. There is a bitter aftertaste for the egussi soup that I couldn't overcome. Trying fufu was a fun experience and I would try it again with a different kind of blend. Our egussi with fufu came with only a few small pieces of goat meat. I shared this with the staff and he came back with more goat meat on the house, the egussi blend was out which explained the low quantity of meat. We feel like this could be checked by the chef before serving. There were two instances of disturbance during our meal but the staff was super calm and handled the situations well. I did feel bad when the older woman wasted the staff's time ordering fufu, not liking it without trying it then asking for chicken soup and then not wanting it and just walking out.

I'm surprised I've never written a review for this place considering how often I come here. It's…read moreeasily one of my favorite neighborhood spots in Harlem. The vibe is chill, relaxed, and very neighborhood-friendly. Even when it's busy, it never feels overwhelming, and they're usually very accommodating with walk-ins. The service is also some of the best I've experienced in Harlem. My go-to is the roasted duck, which is consistently excellent. It's cooked medium to medium-rare and comes with mango, onions, vegetables, and greens. Easily one of my favorite dishes in the neighborhood. The drinks are great too. I recently had the Nas, their take on a Manhattan, and it was incredibly smooth--one of the best whiskey cocktails I've had in a while. Overall, 10/10. A hidden gem on Lenox between 119th and 120th and definitely one of the best spots in Harlem.

Came in for NY Restaurant week! Ordered the Sage Knees and the Crime of Passion for our drinks…read more(both were enjoyed). We both had Brussel Sprouts, good, but the bites without the sauce did taste like bland Brussel sprouts. I had the lamb ribs, very good. They do warn you before that the ribs have a bit of fat on them, I think in the context of NY restaurant week I'm happy to pay it but as a solo entree, the amount of fat vs meat would have annoyed me. My friend had the duck, she enjoyed it. But it is very much salad with a side of duck, I believe she had 6 pieces of duck (pictured) and then a mango, arugula and onion salad. Dessert was very good, but I do hope those are not the usual portion sizes and maybe they just served smaller for NY restaurant week. Which I really didn't mind as I was full from the entree and sprouts. Servers were really nice, this place seems to have its regulars and a nice garden sitting area towards the back. Would overall recommend

Amazing food selections, excellent customer service, great vibe amongst staff and customers…read more The ambiance is comfortable and inviting. The owners are amazing. Great for date night, family or girls/boyz night out.

The Edge's menu purports to blend "the flavors of Jamaica & England with a little New York…read moreattitude." My friend and I were excited to try the Jamaican side of the menu. We started with drinks. She ordered the passion fruit margarita and I went with the tamarind mango margarita. We were told the margaritas are made with a wine based cocktail instead of tequila or mezcal since the restaurant only serves beer and wine. We've never had margaritas made with wine before, which should have been our first clue to skip the cocktails. Unfortunately we were feeling adventurous and neither of us ended up enjoying our drinks. Mine lacked any hint of tamarind, had a subtle mango flavor, and tasted more like a mocktail. My friend said hers tasted like a tart beverage. We ordered the codfish fritters to start and they were a delicious appetizer. We shared the jerk chicken and pancakes and the plantain crusted crab cakes for our entrees. The pancakes were light and fluffy. Unfortunately the jerk chicken was a huge letdown. We were expecting authentic Jamaican flavors. As someone who grew up eating jerk chicken and has enjoyed the real thing in Jamaica numerous times, this wasn't it! I was also surprised to be served a chicken cutlet instead of an actual breast, thigh, or wing portion of chicken. We did not enjoy the chicken. The crab cakes were well done and topped with a stale tasting chip. The fried plantains that accompanied the dish were mushy. We did not enjoy this dish either. My friend ordered the housemade chocolate chip bread pudding, which she said had everything under the sun on it. She enjoyed it, but said it didn't taste like any bread pudding she had ever tasted. Overall, the restaurant's concept is cool, but not well executed. The service was good minus the delayed water glass refills. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were a huge disappointment!
