    Margarita

    The food was good nice portions. Service to tier Danny took very good care of me. I felt safe being alone first time visiting. Music was on point.

    My first time here and I loved it! My boyfriend & his brother have been there many times and I was told that the food was good, the atmosphere is calm and the service was by Joe was one of the best. I definitely have to say that I would come here to dine in & if I wanted some good food that wasn't fast food! Everything about this place I loved! Can't wait to try more of their menu!

    Brunch menu

    The waiter was friendly and welcoming. He made us feel at home. He helped with the food choice. So many options! They have a brunch special that comes with a small Carafe of Bellini or Mimosa. The waiter suggested shrimp scampi since he said the shrimp and grits came with fried shrimp. Guess what I ordered the scampi and it too was fried??? Anyway it wasn't bad except there was a llllllot... of oil in the "scampi" My husband ordered Catfish and jalapeño grits. It was good. Just a little on the salty side.

    Honey BBQ Wings 7 Piece

    Decided to come here for some after work drinks on a whim. Step In is located just steps from the Parkchester 6 train station. Happy Hour ends at 7 but you'll still find a lively crowd. Had a seat at the bar and ordered some wings and a drink. Scoping how the bartender pours is usually my clue whether I'm gonna stay or not. Judging by how he poured that Henny cocktail let me know I was in the right place. Happy Hour prices are more than reasonable so get here between 3 and 7pm for sure. The BBQ were fried hard, seasoned and had plenty of sauce like I like. Step In is just a good neighborhood bar period. I love coming to places like this because it's unpretentious, drinks are strong and food is delicious. What more can you ask for!?

    This is my local spot so I'm REALLY BIASED when it comes to Step In. The food is great, the servers and bartenders are friendly. The overall vibe is cool depending on what you like. If you want to hear a DJ while you enjoy your food I suggest you show up on a Saturday or Friday night. If you want a family friendly environment, brunch is the perfect time for both parents and children. Great prices, great portions, great drinks and a great environment.

    Step In is such a fun place to hang out! I went with a friend who is a regular, and it's everything he said it would be. Great drinks and food, friendly staff, and good vibes with the music! I can see why the regulars show up! I tried the shrimp basket - very simple fried shrimp and French fries. It was fresh, and an ample serving. I also tried the Lychee martini, and it was delicious! Definitely will visit again!

    Their portion sizes are huge, an appetizer can be considered a meal itself. Drinks are made strong

    Mango mai Thai and Patron margarita
    Monique F.

    Great vibes all the time. Waiters have been there for years so they treat you like family. Music is great on a Saturday since there is a live DJ. The drinks are my fav especially the mango mai Thai! The shrimp quesadillas are so good and the wings are as well. It is def a family spot in the neighborhood where you can have a good time if you don't want to travel far.

    Step-In Burger

    The food and service was great. Minimal to no wait for us. The only complaint I had was the music was really loud, I could barely hear my friend and I had to shout most of the time. Music was great, DJ was fantastic but it definitely threw me off how loud it was when I was anticipating a sit down restaurant.

    Catfish sandwich

    OMG I HAD THE SANDWICH AND IT WAS AMAZINGGGGGG!!!!!!! My husband loved the fettuccine and wouldn't stop talking about how good the shrimp and bread was. I loved the Cajun fries, they where seasoned to perfection and extra crispy

Upon arrival, management informed us they had no cook and no staff available and were unsure if anyone would be coming in due to an impending storm. For context, the storm was not expected until Sunday. There was no one available to serve drinks or hookah, and we were advised to leave, eat elsewhere, and come back. When we returned later that evening (still before 11:00 PM), we asked for hookah and were quoted $43. I showed them their Instagram story posted just a few hours earlier advertising promotional pricing valid before 11 PM. Despite this, they refused to honor their own posted promotion. Between the lack of staffing, poor communication, and refusal to honor advertised pricing, this was a very disappointing experience. I came to unwind and instead left frustrated. This reflects poorly on management and overall business practices.

I could see how this might be a little harder to get a seat for a bigger group if you aren't there before 6. It seemed that once a group got a big table, they camped out. The drinks were strong and creative. Friendly bartenders, good music, and yummy options for bar snacks. Also, the bathroom is a nice touch.

I wanted to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday on Saturday, May 16th, and after searching a few places, I settled on Sobro Garden especially after finding out it was one of Jimmy's spots. We celebrated with 30 of our closest family and friends, and it truly became a night he said he'll never forget. Where do I start? Let me begin by saying Sobro Garden, you guys did NOT disappoint!! First and foremost, thank you Jimmy, because when I tell you this man went above and beyond to make everyone feel like family at his establishment, I truly mean it. Jimmy personally checked in with everyone going table to table making sure everyone was enjoying themselves, asking if everything was good from the drinks, atmosphere, music and food was to satisfaction because he genuinely wanted everyone to enjoy and especially told my husband it's a blessing to hit a milestone, celebrating with family and friendsand hope his place made it a memorable one. Jimmy is truly a perfectionist at heart. A host beyond host!! Even taking pictures with everyone. He took several pictures with my husband and even accidentally walked away with his iPhone for a moment & my husband allow his too he didn't realize it was his phone until I told him. Our maître d', Suhaily, was such a beautiful soul inside and out. She made the entire booking process for my husband's event feel effortless. She guided me step by step, helped choice a menu plan, stayed in communication the whole time and was so patient, kind and welcoming the moment I arrived. Her smile and warm hearted present made the experience even better. She greeted me as if we knew each other for years and our waitress and waiter? Absolutely AMAZING. My husband, our guests and I were attended to with such PRISTINE EXCELLENCE all night long. Now let's talk about the FOOD... because BABY!!! Everything was DELICIOUS. I can't even single out one item because every dish hit the spot. Everyone at our tables ordered something different, so we all got to taste a little bit of everything from the pernil, steak & onions, grilled salmon, chicken, arroz con gandules, fried fish, steak skewers and BABY... those famous Crack Wings Rub had everybody wanting to eat their fingers To top it all off, the highlight of the night was seeing Melle Mel celebrating his birthday from the day before and actor Darrin Henson, so handsome in person was also in the building. Both were so down-to-earth and when Melle Mel grabbed the mic, he absolutely brought the house down!! Thank you again to EVERYONE at Sobro Garden for making my husband's 50th birthday celebration such an UNFORGETTABLE Experience. We will DEFINITELY be Back!

I stopped by on a weekday around 3:00-4:00 p.m., right as happy hour was starting. According to their website, happy hour runs from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The main reason I came was for their frozen rosé, which I remembered being one of the best. It's definitely more of a sweet, refreshing drink than a strong one, but it still gives you a nice buzz. I was even willing to pay full price for it. I literally paid for an Uber just because I was craving that frozen drink. The first thing I noticed was that, despite it being broad daylight, there was a security guard at the door checking IDs and searching bags. That's their policy, and that's fine, but what really stood out was the condition of the entrance. The front door was cracked and held together with duct tape. It seemed odd to be so focused on security while basic maintenance appeared to be neglected. When I walked in, I was only the second customer in the entire bar besides the bartender. Unfortunately, I found out the frozen drink machines have been broken for months, so there were no frozen drinks available at all. The bartender mentioned that she has repeatedly told management the machines need to be repaired, but nothing has been done. Since that was the only reason I came, and nothing else on the menu really caught my interest, I decided not to stay. This place has changed dramatically since the COVID era. The atmosphere feels completely different. One of the things I used to enjoy was their hookah happy hour, which was around $25 with refills for about $10-$15, and they had a great selection of flavors. From what I've heard, they no longer offer hookah, and it sounds like they may not have had the proper license back then, which is concerning if true. Another thing I miss is the outdoor seating area they had during COVID. The indoor space is pretty small, but the outdoor setup made the bar feel much larger and created a much better atmosphere. It's disappointing that they didn't keep it because I think it really added to the experience and probably helped attract more customers. Sorry I didn't take any photos, but honestly, there wasn't much worth photographing. The interior hasn't really changed, so the existing photos online are still an accurate representation of what it looks like still.
