Stopped by for a happy hour and was impressed with their deals! *Drink Happy Hour Menu Attached to this review*. There is a fun ambiance, and it was larger than expected. We were able to seat ourselves in a back room with open windows to the street. Our server, whose name I didn't catch, was extremely friendly and attentive. They had a great espresso martini. For happy hour, we got 2 drinks each, which were only $7 each for happy hour! Great food as well. Would recommend if you are in the area! read more

Stopped by on a Tuesday for HH with the girls and we were so glad we ended up at Pretty Rickys! This bar has all the right things - good food, music and vibes. You can actually have a conversation with friends, enjoy great music, and dig into food that isn't terrible. Def recommend the fries and burgers. The service does get a little slow as there was only one or two servers but other than that would definitely recommend! read more

My friends and I finished having dinner and we stopped by this bar for drinks on a Friday night. The place was crowded and they were playing pretty good music, no one was really dancing but us. I ordered drinks at the bar and I didn't finish ordering and the bartender got upset. I understand that the bar is busy and he wants the order all at once, but I wasn't able to reach him when he was pouring the drinks. He was very rude, most likely will never go back. read more

Cuisine: 7 Service: 7 Decor: 7 Value: 8 Overall: 7 This review is purely based on the Happy Hour, which is as follows below. Monday: All Day Tuesday to Friday: 4pm - 7pm Saturday & Sunday: 2pm - 5pm We came here specifically for the Happy Hour oysters, which are $7 for half a dozen. On the day we were there, they had oysters from Massachusetts, and they were quite good. Very fresh and cleanly shucked. Two of us had a dozen each. As for other Happy Hour items, the two Ricky's Sliders for $7 were just okay, while the two Fried Chicken Sliders were actually not bad. With that said, not sure I would get them when I could just order more of those awesome oysters. Lol Penicillin and Espresso Martini, each for $7 during Happy Hour, were both quite well made. I could see myself coming back again for some Happy Hour oysters and a few drinks. read more

Recently visited for happy hr. as me and my friends were bar crawling. They have select bites for discounted price. I was happy to see they had oysters but, they didn't have them available on this visit. Booooo. I didn't see anything else on the happy hr menu that piqued my interest. Although that was the end of my interest on bites, I took advantage of the happy hr cocktail menu. I went with the emotional orange. It reminded me of a jazzed up aperol spritz. It was tasty and boozy. The bartenders were pretty friendly and had many accouterments to craft beverages. The atmosphere was ok but, the music could've used a little help. I may give them another chance but, maybe I'd eye the regular menu on that visit. read more

came here for happy hour with friends and ended up staying way longer than planned because we were having such a good time truthfully. we shared the sliders, focaccia & hummus, and fries. we ended up trying a variety of cocktails & all the girls were sipppping! the bar has dim lighting BUT has holiday lights up everywhere & we appreciated that so much. it automatically enhances your mood. i will say, i usually don't like espresso martinis but this one surprised me. i loved it and even ordered a second. after 7pm, they begin $10 martinis. our server was also incredibly patient the whole time so shout out to her. read more

Cool happy hour place for everyone's new favorite drink, The espresso martini! However please be aware they are pre-made with an inexpensive vodka that might leave you with a hangover the next day. Good happy hour food options as well but my chicken sliders were def made with old chicken. The chicken was brown and hard. Fries were good and very cool aesthetically pleasing bar. I would try it again, in hopes to have better food. Bartender service was very good though. read more

$7 for a happy hour espresso martini is iconic. Quality espresso martinis too, not one of these watered down, low effort, danced on canned espresso martinis... Sorry a lot of descriptors there but they came from my soul. A reasonable happy hour from 4-7pm too. $7 at 6:59pm, $17 at 7:01pm. It really grinds my gears when places advertise a happy hour but it's from 4-6 M-F only... like I can't even physically make that. I guess I gotta go harder for financial freedom... I sat here at the Pretty Ricky's bar with my big homie, surrounded by Halloween decorations, ripping a couple $7 espresso martinis while just sitting there talking about life. Pretty Ricky's is doing inflation how Ilia Topuria did Max Holloway last night. Damn that hurt to even type. Tough to watch your heroes get sent to the shadow realm, but a $7 espresso martini helps take the pain away. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more

$7 drinks and a weekend happy hour, what more could you ask for? Was attracted to the retro signage and came in to wait for my pants to be hemmed at Orchard Express. The bar has a lot of space, with a big back room. There are many places where you can stand and put down your drink, so you can tell it gets busy in here. I saw about 20 or so taps, so I figure it's a beer bar but had a cocktail instead along with the sliders (get the chicken ones.) read more

Came here with my finance for a quick drink and bite before a concert at Mercury Lounge last weekend. We ordered the Disco Shrimp: Resurrection and What Happened to the 9 Train to drink and shared fries, a kale salad and crispy chicken sandwich. I was super perplexed by the Disco Shrimp: Resurrection drink. The server described it as tasting like a chocolate covered strawberry margarita and she was spot on! This drink was so unique and very good. My finance also enjoyed his drink. The fries and sandwich were also good. I surprisingly enjoyed the kale salad more than I expected to. I mean it's a kale salad; what's so special? I find kale just ok and I would come back here just for this salad and disco shrimp cocktail alone. The service was great. We had two servers and they were both attentive and awesome. The windows and doors were open so it was a little hot but we're also in the middle of a heat wave so it is what it is. I'm not sure we'll be in the area again anytime soon but if we are I'll definitely stop by again. They have a few more unique cocktails that caught my eye. read more

Date: Friday, January 12th, 2024 Time: around 5pm Party of: 3 What: Happy Hour (Tues to Fri 4pm to 7pm, Sat & Sun 2pm to 5pm) *1/2 Dozen Oysters: Mignonette, Cocktail Sauce ($6) *French Fries ($6) *Espresso Martini: community vodka, mr black coffee liqueur, cold brew ($6) x2 *Bunny Bravo | Espresso & Tonic: ilegal mezcal, amontillado sherry, spiced pear, cold brew fever tree tonic ($6) *Sauvignon Blanc: Gotham Projects, FR ($6) x2 *Jameson ($16) When we first arrived, it wasn't super busy, so we managed to easily grab three seats at the bar. (All the booths were taken.) Towards the end of our time here, it got busier, so we came at a good time. Everything above is from their HH menu except for the Jameson. In a world where inflation is driving up everything, $6 per HH item is awesome! I got the espresso martini and sauvignon blanc. The espresso martini was good. Not too sweet. The sauvignon blanc paired well with the oysters. Tho I'm a fan of smaller oysters, so these were on the bigger side for me. The fries were fine. Some fried food is always a good snack when drinking. If ordering straight whisky / scotch, I would recommend going for the higher shelf stuff as it is reasonably priced. I can't remember what we asked about (maybe the oban 14?), but the price was the same as a pour of jameson. (We figured the jameson would be cheaper, but it was the same price.) Great HH spot. The bartender was nice and attentive without being overly so. Definitely worth checking out. read more

Pretty Ricky's is my favorite bar in the Lower East Side, for many reasons. This spot is one you can go to at any time of day and have a great time. Their happy hour is $7 cocktails, wine, and beer from 2-5pm everyday. Amazing for day drinking on a warm NYC weekend day, as they also open up all their windows and you can sit outside. When I come here at night, they have great music and open up the backroom. The quality of their drinks are also very good. The bartenders are fast and attentive. Their speed does not sacrifice the quality of the drinks either. Definitely recommend this spot for drinking night or day. Next time I need to try some food! read more

Miguel was the best bartender I've ever seen in my existence of living. He was so kind he was so nice and he made my drink so good. I don't know who the manager is of that establishment but he needs to give Miguel a raise. Also on top of that, the social media manager girl Keeley took photos of us and she ate that up real bad and she ate that me and my friends will definitely back to get more drinks and inside it looks a little bit frat ish because of the people who come in, but other than that, it's a great vibe 10 out of 10 I'm coming back read more

Great spot for happy hour especially when the weather is nice. They open all the windows by the street so you have this nice breeze and good lighting all throughout the restaurant. Oysters for happy hour was $1.25 each which isn't bad at all. The oysters tasted fresh! (I wish I could bring some Thai seafood sauce and fried shallots to eat the oysters with lol my fav way to eat oysters. Cocktails were delicious but I observed that my espresso martini didn't have 3 beans on top for symbolism. Nbd was just an observation. The drink was still yummy and got me feeling pretty nice. My friends ordered sliders which they said was good. Service was also really great! 9/10 I do recommend! read more

This place is a gem! 7$ menu items during happy hour. Ordered one of everything for the table. Everyone had a different favorite, but all were amazing. The "penicillin" was the best I've ever had. We live in a very bougie area of the Midwest and it is difficult to get a good cocktail for under 16 bucks. I couldn't believe how well we ate and drank at Pretty Ricky's with the nicest wait staff and bumpin' tunes. We all wish we had a Pretty Ricky's back home! read more

This place has a private room and you can rent it out for parties even on Saturday nights but it's only available from 8 pm-12 midnight and they won't let you set up before 7:30 pm. Other than that, it's really cool and the bartenders are AWESOME! You can order some fries and onion rings to soak up the alcohol. Lol. The minimum is 4k so invite all of your friends and party like it's 1999!! Bring your playlist and you can hook your phone up and play disco music all night long!! read more

My favorite spot for happy hour. I live nearby and can always grab a seat outside in the summer or inside. Usually have to reserve the booths for a bigger group. The cocktail menu changes every season and I'm always excited to try the new gin cocktails. The burger deal for happy hour is unmatched. The oysters are also always so fresh. Pro Tip: you can rent out the back room for events and they really do an amazing job with serving crudités or French fries. read more

I ran inside to use the bathroom on a Saturday night after dinner around 11 pm and ended up staying for drinks. There were other small groups inside but it wasn't packed. We (4 of us) were able to grab a table in the corner. For music, it was mostly top 40s. We ordered shots of patron and I had the cosmopolitan. It was made really well. It was strong, but enjoyable. The guys in my group ordered a couple different IPAs, which they seemed to enjoy and order more rounds of. Besides the service being a little slow, I would definitely return for a super chill vibe and good, reasonable priced drinks. read more

Finally got to try Monkey Bar and I definitely understand why reservations here can be hard to get…read more The whole restaurant has such a fun old-school NYC feel and it was packed when we went. We were running a little late getting there because of traffic, but they were really nice about it which I appreciated. We ordered a bunch of things for the table so we could try a little bit of everything. The monkey bread was probably my favorite and definitely worth ordering. We also got the steak which was cooked perfectly, along with pasta and a burger.

Service throughout dinner was honestly great. We also tried a couple drinks and ended up staying for a while because we liked the atmosphere so much. It's definitely more of a special dinner spot than somewhere I'd casually stop into, but between the food, service and overall vibe I'd happily come back. Such a good dinner in NYC!

I was called back and the person who called me was very nice and was happy to make this change for us. Overall, the vibes of the restaurant were great I can totally see why it's hard to get a resy here! Service was excellent. First of all we were a bit late due to traffic and weather but the staff was really understanding! Next, our waiter accidentally put in 2 pastas instead of a burger we ordered but had that fixed immediately and took it off our tab which was a super nice surprise. We got a couple things to share and everything was delicious! The monkey bread was totally worth the hype! Steak was cooked perfectly and the pasta was delicious. Also got a couple drinks! Would totally come back here again.

My wife and I took our kids (10 and 16 year old boys) to this place on our last evening in NYC. We…read morewere looking for a place that had a nice ambiance and good food. Ambiance: This place has a nice ambiance, definitely very "New York" -- dark (you can't see how dirty the floor is) and loud music (maybe too loud). We sat upstairs (we had a reservation) and of all the people on the top there was a party of 4 (us), a party of 8 (all dudes celebrating something) and the rest of the tables were on a DATE - which I thought was funny. Service: We were served by Ann-Marie who was so delightful. She was kind, super nice, and took the time to speak to us (which is basically how we figured out she wasn't a native New York City person). She gave us good food suggestions and we were very happy with our selection. Food: Here is what we ordered * Steak Frites: My two boys got the steak frites and I have to say the steak was awesome! I had a bite of each of theirs and they each ordered it differently (one Medium Rare/Medium and one Medium) and they both were prepared PERFECTLY. The fries were overflowing. * Caeser Salad with Salmon: My wife got the salad with Salmon (they only have a few salad options) and she enjoyed it. * Prawn and Crab Risotto: I got this and I have to say it was VERY bland. I wouldn't get this if you are looking for taste. I had to put salt and pepper on it to make it have any semblance of taste. Value/Price: I would say this is not over priced but it is not cheap either...bill is attached. I would recommend it to folks who are looking for a good place to either go out on a date or a family type meal.

We had the fried chicken Benedict and the crab cake Benedict. I was a bit confused when I saw that each Benedict dish only had one poached egg - shouldn't it always be two? I guess that's shrinkflation (plus inflation) for you. That bent said, the crab cake was actually really big and filling. The side of potatoes were really delicious. Would I come back for brunch again? Very unlikely. But, it does seem like a pretty "safe choice" if you need a last minute reservation for a group.

Did an earlier dinner on a Saturday with a friend at the bar. We got some similar items, some different. The thing I kept the same was my martinis and all three (sour cream and onion, tomato, and espresso) were just as amazing as ever. Food-wise, I stuck mainly to the classics with one new dish: - Pizza rolls: Very good but 3 pizza rolls for $20 felt small to me. I feel like I remember seeing others served more when I've gone in the past, but not completely sure. They're nostalgic and fun, nothing to die for. - Fries: Great as ever, we opted for just one of the sauces (avocado dill). - French Dip: This used to be cut in 3 pieces and now it's 2. Works well with a duo but I do think it's actually a little smaller now than before when I compare photos. - Samoa sundae: Still amazing, still so so worth. It was fun going with a friend who hadn't been before and seeing the joy upon trying the dish!

The fried cream cheese croquettes. The everything bagel croutons! The five cheese pizza rolls -yes! Wagyu French Dip served with au jous - outstanding Lobster & Caviar Roll Sour cream & onion martini Ok: French fries are fine. A little salty. Saoma sundae - lots of coconut Skip: Spinach & Artichoke Dip - meh. Had better at Applebees. The sauce trio for the fries - all were too salty. The service is outstanding. Everything was on point even though we sat at the bar. The attention to detail is great. Our course were staggered and we never felt rushed. Now is it worth showing up 2+ hour in advance hoping to get in. I don't think so. Once they hype dies down and you can book a reservation check it out.

Aside from that, we had a fantastic experience here at Friedmans Herald Square near Penn Station. They were playing Hilary Duff music, which was such a fun touch since they often match the vibe of whatever is happening at MSG! They even had special Hilary Duff mocktails. The atmosphere is super sweet and cozy. The restaurant was empty when we first walked in, but the second we sat down, it completely packed up! The waiter was very friendly, and even though they weren't able to split the check at the table, they did provide an itemized receipt to make figuring it out easy. The food was great overall--the Mac & Cheese bites and the corn were especially good! We also tried the cheesecake and molten cake. Plus, the neighbors sitting next to us were so sweet.

The Service: The staff went above and beyond. A special shout-out to the incredible waitstaff and the attentive water service person who constantly kept our glasses filled--such a thoughtful touch. Our waiter was also exceptionally kind and welcoming. The Ambiance: Gorgeous decor with a warm, upscale energy that makes for a fantastic night out. Tips for future diners: Reservations are a must: Make sure to book ahead, especially if you are eyeing the gorgeous booths (note that the booths are designed to comfortably seat groups of up to 8 people). Family-style dining: While we didn't order it this time, they do offer a leg of the lamb that feeds 8, making it a stellar option for larger gatherings. I'll definitely be returning with more friends. Highly recommended!

They don't give you a sharp knife, so you kind of have to bite off pieces; but when a piece is grisly you can't tear off a piece and end up with a full piece in your mouth, chewing for many minutes around the grisly center. Everyone knows what this is like and it's to be expected in life, but NOT at a high-end restaurant where you've paid a significant margin above the average meal, and don't even get a full pita. Guys, do some QC and soul-searching - and be generous with pita.
