    Lychee Martini
    Peter D.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Went for brunch and really enjoyed everything we had. It's a small little place but the service was fast and the food was delicious.

    Apple Walnut Salad

    Nice brunch options for a casual vibe. I recommend the burrata and fig toast, the apple salad, and the folded eggs. Server was kind and attentive.

    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.

    The food was decent. The service was decent. Nothing really stood out as impeccable or terrible. It's a solid place to grab a bite.

Think vintage wallpaper, little knick-knacks, and warm lighting. It's got character. I ordered the market salad with mixed greens, honeycrisp apples, goat cheese, candied pecans, and sherry vinaigrette. It was a hearty portion - super fresh and flavorful, and honestly more than I could finish (not a complaint!). I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

We also wanted to try a classic pastrami on rye--but without committing to the long lines at Katz's Delicatessen. Sarge's ended up being the perfect alternative, just a quick five-minute walk from our hotel. We arrived around 5:00 pm on a Sunday and were seated right away, which already felt like a win. The meal started with coleslaw and both a half sour and full sour pickle--such a classic deli touch, and a great way to kick things off. I ordered the half sandwich with matzah ball soup, and the portion sizes were no joke. The soup alone could have been a full meal: a huge bowl with an equally massive matzah ball. The broth was warm and soothing, and the matzah ball was incredibly light with a perfect texture. The half pastrami on rye was just as impressive. Even "half" was stacked high with flavorful, tender pastrami. Adding a bit of mustard from the table brought everything together--it was simple, classic, and exactly what I was hoping for. Not only was it one of the more reasonably priced meals of the trip, but it was also genuinely satisfying. If you're looking for a no-fuss, traditional deli experience without the wait, Sarge's is a great option.

The sandwiches are huge so keep that in mind. They were willing to split ours into 3 to share.

Enjoyed the experience for a quick diner meal.
