Overdue post: Came here on a Saturday night at around 8pm…read moreback in April for drinks after dinner with a friend. The bar had a table in the front two corner with around 5 chairs per table and a table for maybe 2-3 people in front of the dj/karaoke setup. It happened to be karaoke night. Also, noone was sitting at the bar area at the time. There's also just one bathroom in the back of the bar. Since we just had dinner, we only ordered drinks. As always, we ordered 2 long islands. The drinks were lite at first, so it didn't feel as if there's much alcohol in them, but it hits later. Overall not a bad drink for the cost. I believe it was $12 per drink. Of course one drink isn't enough so we decided to get another drink similar to a long island but has blue curacao. We showed the server/bartender a picture of it and they said they could make it. We've never had the drink before so I can't compare it to other places. The drink was pretty good, but we still prefer the long islands more. Not that the drink didn't have enough alcohol though. Moving onto the vibes of the bar... it's very different from city vibes. It may be that my friend and I were the youngest ones there and everyone else were much older. Kudos to the singers though, they had such good lungs to assist with their singing. They were very much in tune and on beat. Would I come here again? Yes. But maybe not on karaoke night, since it was really difficult to hear my friend speak and have a conversation without asking him to repeat himself.

I had a tequila gimlet and it was so tasty. The perfect amount of sweet, tart and tequila kick. I actually came here before maybe once or twice and hadn't been for a while. Then I gotta invited to this spot for the date from hell lol. The man showed up super late and had the audacity to have an attitude with me for being upset. Trust I never saw that man again, paid for all of my own drinks, even though I had been invited out and he downed his drink so fast so he could 'leave me first' that it was thee most pathetic and immature sorry sight I ever did see, from a grown man. The bartenders were so kind about it and even said waiting 45 minutes for anyone was a no-no and that his behavior was unacceptable! I agree. I'd definitely go back in the future. I like the big backyard area with all the tables. Good for large groups. But it was also really nice for a lone drink at the bar'. Cause baby, that's what I had!

The bar seems small, but cozy, with wooden tones and soft lighting throughout, however through the rear door opens a staircase down to the back yard which is also nice and spacious. I was served at the bar by the fantastic Ayana, who made me a great, tasty, Rye Old-fashioned. Her service was great, she was speedy and easily handled the crowd that grew there as a group came in for a birthday/farewell party. The party really got started as the DJ played a mix of classics and soul to get the patrons dancing, and the evening flowed. I had a great time, great conversation, enjoyed excellent service and drinks until the early morning. I am definitely coming back to enjoy Mathilde, the great drinks and bartenders - not to forget the music!

Happy hour every day until 7 pm - with multiple drink and food items priced at $8. the decor is dark and sexy, full of velvets and nice artwork. id come back for the secret lounge in the back. the bathroom is clean and nicely decorated too. When we got here, I guess everyone else had the same idea because it filled up. the service slowed down after we placed our order, but there was only 1 server working the bar. the $8 happy hour espresso martini hit the SPOT and was refreshing too. they have a few craft beer choices on menu too. The Gambas is a must get. i think i counted 6 plump perfectly seasoned grilled shimp on a bed of sauce and toasted crustini. Grab the mac n cheese bites! my date loved them (they can come with sausage or without). i sampled the mac sauce on top and thought it was pretty good. the 5 wings on happy hour were messy, but delicious. i tasted the honey but not the chipotle. it might need a hint of more heat if they wanna call it chpotle. would come back in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately, the…read moreowner/bartender has a thinly veiled but overall apathetic borderline territorial attitude about the place, revealed by frustration when a paying customer has the gall to ask for a drink and thus commit the unspeakable sin of interrupting a service worker from his banter with the regulars. Decent drinks and ambience for a seemingly non-pretentious bar, unfortunately the lack of third spaces in NYC creates a culture of old-time-ry spiritual curmudgeons and ingroup outgroup dynamics among regulars not worth being around if you want to have fun. May be if you're Irish and/or older Gen Xer, you may have a slightly better experience. Despite its placement and weekly karaoke catering to a younger demographic, it's still a crotchety old-man bar at heart though perhaps not really malicious, just annoying and set in its ways... Better options: Adirondak, Hinterlands.
