    Came here for brunch and the food was really good! I had the full breakfast which was packed with so much to eat! The eggs are just as gorgeous in person as they are on line. Only things I would have skipped out on are the peach and burrata toast as it didn't have much flavor/was hard to split between a group of three and the sausage. Had plenty of seating both inside and out!

    Came here for brunch. Loved the food. Reminded me a bit of Dudley's. Came back for dinner. Unfortunately the dinner menu fell through. Wasn't as good. But also the brunch food not sure if too much salt or something. Me and my friend were super thirsty after eating here

    If you don't read the news, you don't live in NYC, or you live in NYC with your head buried in the concrete, you may not be aware that everything has become unconscionably expensive lately. When it comes to eating and drinking out, there's not much we can do about it, except to find good happy hours. Sonnyboy has a great happy hour. We were wandering around on a sticky day, and saw people eating and drinking at tables in the middle of the street, and that was the energy we wanted. We were pleasantly surprised to find a menu with quality $12 cocktails (shoutout to the Watermalone, exactly the thing to imbibe when you're sweaty), and various delicious things for only $11 like a very solid burger (reminiscent of McDonald's in the best way), an even better fried chicken sandwich, and an absolutely gorgeous and incredible burrata peach toast. If peaches are in season, it's exactly what you need in your life. And they were. I already felt obscenely lucky to have an affordable and tasty meal (with cocktails) in the middle of a Manhattan street, but it was also the night before the Pride Parade, and let me tell you, the people watching was spectacular. I wish you all similar happiness in the near future.

    Nice brunch place. No frill but good food and drinks. The service was good but the staff looked a bit too busy. It is pretty small, I recommend to book a table to not wait too long

    This past Friday, I hosted a birthday dinner at Sonnyboy for a group of 12 and it ended up being the best place I could have chosen for a large party. I had emailed Jatin, the restaurant owner, in advance to organize the large party and he arranged 4 tables next to each other to accommodate the group. That was perfect because we were close enough to all talk, but not trapped at a long table without any ability to get out. Beyond the table, Jatin was incredibly responsive and helpful before the event and was so nice while we were there, making sure we were well taken care of the whole time. Plus he made this paan drink that was absolutely incredible. The service there was excellent in general and everyone was really sweet. As for the food, we ordered all of the small plates to share before people moved on to entrées, and there genuinely wasn't a miss. The Kung Pao cauliflower was my personal favorite. It was crispy, saucy, and that cravable sweet and sour flavor that you get from manchurian. Loved it. The tingly fried chicken lived up to its name: ultra-crispy, juicy, and layered with flavor from the Szechuan pepper, mustard green mayo, and lime that made it feel really bright. I also really loved the shrimp dish and the shishito peppers. I'm gluten free and felt very well taken care of. There were lots of options and the servers and kitchen were really clear with me in terms of cross contamination. Meanwhile, the rest of the group, who are very much not gluten free, could not stop talking about the burrata and fig toast, the marinara meatballs, and several other dishes they ordered. We all left full and happy. I would recommend this to anyone whether you're just getting some friends together or having a larger party. Already thinking about going back here next year. I added some photos, but we were having so much fun that these are a little blurry haha!

    Went with a group of friends for brunch and we throughly enjoyed the experience. We had a party of four with a reservation and had nice outdoor seating. The food was great although did not have as much selection of items as I would have liked. However there is still a ton! I got the pancakes and really enjoyed them. They had great flavor and were super fluffy. My friends got other dishes and we all shared a mixture of sweet and savory dishes. Everything I tried from the menu was great overall and would recommend to others.

    Salmon Egg Benedict with add on chicken + Iced matcha latte with oat milk
    Melody M.

    I am not sure about other food but the food I order is really salty (both the salmon and add on chicken). But the pouch eggs are good. The matcha latte is not that great. All I taste is the powder. As for the service, it is really hard for us to get the server's attention. But the location is so nice. The restaurant decoration is pretty and instagrnamly.

    Crispy Chicken Sandwich
    April L.

    Came here for dinner on a Friday and was happily surprised to find out that they had happy hour available on a Friday! (Most places tend to have HH from M-T only) We got the fried chicken sandwich with fries and a Kale Caesar salad with crispy chicken added on. The salad was nice and big and I liked the added chicken as it was still juicy and tender despite being fried. The chicken sandwich was what you would expect, but not in a bad way, just a standard fried chicken sandwich. Weirdly the menu said fries were shoe string fries but they just seemed like normal fries. Service was quick and the atmosphere was nice with dim lighting at nighttime. I would come back for brunch as their menu seemed yummy for brunch.

    Shakshuka
    Asia T.

    Went here for brunch and was told there was a 30 minute wait. As it turns out, we only had to wait for 10. Outdoor seating is literally in the closed street, so we sat indoors at the bar. As stated on the menu, the Cucumber and Watermelon cocktails were very refreshing, but I can't remember the names at the moment. The food menu and restaurant itself is not the biggest, but it's fine because the food we got was on point. Beware: the lemon ricotta pancake is most definitely shareable between multiple people. The berry compote combined with the whipped cream was so good. Shakshuka was excellent (better than the one at Shuka) and the Beef Burger was also good. I think the fries may be seasoned with turmeric? Or annatto? Not sure but they will turn your fingers yellow.

    We had a great experience here. They were able to accommodate our large group by pushing some tables together. The service was quick and everyone we interacted with was so nice. Everyone's drinks were cute and delicious. The food was also great. I loved the gluten free ricotta pancake! Delicious! The gluten free banana bread also rocked!

    As an Aussie of course I had to go check this place out. But I was sad to find out the original owner had actually sold it to someone who is not Australian. Nevertheless, I was able to try the brunch at this quite small restaurant and it was delicious. There's also still a couple Australian items on the menu which is awesome to see (although there is a mistake printed on it. It's "parma" not "parmy" ) I ordered the harrissa egg fold which was phenomenal (but why does it cost extra to add toast?) and an espresso Martini that was probably the best I've had in NYC although that doesn't say much as I'm not from there and you can only order so many.

    Pancakes
    Andrea S.

    I liked how fluffy the golden eggs were but the salad was plain as it did not come with dressing. We also had the pancakes which were very sweet. I made a reservation in advance which i recommend since the place is on the small side.

    Cheesecake
    Maggie B.

    This is a small, cozy LES restaurant. I was a few minutes early for my reservation, but they sat me right away. To drink, I had the Poolside cocktail. It was pleasantly spicy with a tropical vibe from the curacao. They have happy hour even on Saturdays and the cocktails were only $12. For my main, I had the kale caesar salad and loved it. I rarely order salads when eating out. However, I wanted something light and was not disappointed. It was quite a large salad with a generous topping of reggiano cheese. The bread crumbs provided deliciously buttery texture and the avocado was an added treat. Every bite was satisfyingly crunchy. My partner got the fried chicken sandwich and enjoyed it, but the accompanying fries were too salty. For dessert, we shared the cheesecake. It was smooth and rich, with a hint of lemon. The back edge of the slice was dry and overbaked, but otherwise, it was a nice end to the meal.

Pickled veggies, fresh falafel, the works. The waffle was also delicious and it had an addicting maple-butterscotch sauce that kept us coming back (I wish I ordered one just for myself it was that good). Can't wait to come back, Banter Brunch days will definitely be a part of my routine.

My bf got the burger and thought it was decent. Service was good, not necessarily super attentive but got us what we needed. Found it helpful that they allow you to pay at the table using a QR code.

However, the place did not live up to them. The space was sleek and cozy with a grown up vibe. I ordered the Steak Frites with Truffle Fries (which cost an additional few dollars). The Steak was sliced and served with chimichurri sauce. The sauce was decent with plenty of savory spices and seasoning. Steak was not good... Grisly, fatty, and not at all tender. At least the Truffle Fries were perfectly crispy and full of true truffle taste. For dessert, I had to get the Sticky Date Pudding with ice cream and salted toffee sauce. This slightly redeemed the establishment, as the Sticky Date Pudding was delectable. The dessert was satisfyingly sticky, delightfully sweet, with a wonderful density and texture. Ice cream added a lovely smooth creaminess, while the toffee was melt in your mouth delicious. Service was decent. Prices were a little expensive, but standard for the Midtown area. Since I was not happy with the main course, I would not return.

This was my first time dining at the East Village location. The interior design is stylish, and the atmosphere is nice, but the ventilation is a major issue. The range hood is far too weak, and the entire restaurant was filled with smoke from the burger grills, making the dining experience uncomfortable. One issue we had was that my first Bronte Burger was overcooked instead of the medium I ordered. To their credit, the staff replaced it promptly, and the second one was cooked correctly. The biggest disappointment, however, was the tip calculation on the receipt. The suggested 20% tip clearly does not match 20% of the total bill. How is that number being calculated? It feels misleading and makes it seem like customers are being overcharged on the suggested gratuity. That's simply unacceptable and really leaves a bad impression. The food is still excellent, but the ventilation and the questionable tip calculation seriously need to be addressed.
