    This place is good for what it's worth. The reasoning is two-fold. They have all the mainstream labels you can ask for, and a good amount of craft beer labels that are sold in bodegas, and restaurants. However, what you won't find are the obscure labels that beer nerds look specifically for. That wont happen here though I'm sure you can ask them to order it for you, however it is a good destination to gather what you might need for a BBQ or get together on the fly, if you don't require spirits or liqueurs. Also, prices are on par with stores. So you're getting convenience over price. If this happens to be in your neighborhood, this is a good spot to check out for your craft beer needs.

    Expired beer!

    Me and my cousin came in right before closing, while being stared down so we can choose our beer faster we decided to choose Goose Island Matilda 6 pack. It was the last one on the shelf. As we were about to pay all we had was a $100 bill so we gave it to the young kid behind the cash register. After a few seconds he asked us if we had anything smaller and we said no, at that moment he started cursing under his breathe in spanish calling us names while he gave us change. We noticed the beer was a bit dusty while he was gathering our change so we asked him is the beer expired or good, we checked the date and it was marked may 2017. We did not know how long a beer like this lasts so we asked him if its still good and he looked at the date and said yes its good so we took the beer home. After freezing the beer for a few minutes since it was hot when we got it we decided to open one each and pour it in the glass. It smelled like fermented wine and tasted like rotted wheat or barley. Never going to buy from this place again. It sucks that this is the only beer distributor in the neighborhood at the moment but this is what we have to deal with. Expired beer and cursing in spanish. what a shame. Rude staff!

    Freakin awesome!

    Mediocre beer selection complemented by amazing rude staff. Looking forward to their eventual gentrification out of the neighborhood

    We hosted a small and intimate wedding (30 people). The event organizer was really responsive to my…read moreemails and every request was done as we specified. The food, the service, and the staff were absolutely amazing. Our guests spoke either Spanish or English and they had bilingual staff, so everything worked smoothly for everyone. Skyler was really helpful on the day of the event, especially when you as an organizer feel overwhelmed -- she and the staff made everything easier. Really grateful, and the best choice to host an event.

    not wheelchair accessible. several steps up into the entrance…read more THE MIXOLOGIST IS THE STAR OF THE SHOW Sit at the bar. Order mixologist's choice, and David G. will take care of you. He is the best mixologist in NYC. He danced with lemon slices cutting through pours of clear liquids from heights. He tossed and shook, and was precise and caring. A true artist. David made our night. The only reason I would ever walk back into this place is to sit at the bar and let David mesmerize me. FOOD: Broccoli rabe was fresh, but I needed a steak knife to cut through it. It was very al dente. Not cut properly, which is to cut crosses in the stems. Salad was fresh and crisp, high quality fennel and greens. Lovely. Agnoletti was divine. Home made. Focaccia very good with subtle flavors and just the right crust. Olive oil, good. The front of house staff was lovely, two ladies, and a friendly guy. Super lovely. Treated us like friends. Also the busboys were all gentlemen. I loved them. They brushed crumbs off the table with panache. The only complaint is the waiter was robotic, and issued rule after rule. No smile. EX: It was a freezing night. We wanted to order appetizer's first, and have a chance to look at the menu. He couldn't do that. "I need the whole order." Then one of us wanted to order the pre fixe dinner. "You can't do that. You both have to order it." He was very cold, a robot. To enjoy ourselves, we had to push through the horrible treatment. Too bad for the waiter, when I asked about the special pasta, he butchered the pronunciation, giving me a soft pitch to teach him Italian. I blasted him. C'est la vie.

    I last ate here almost a year ago . . . in January. I was going to go to one of my regular spots…read moreand it was overflowing, so I redirected here . . . so glad I did! As I said before, this is a community spot. Everyone here is relaxed, having a long, leisurely, European style meal. I had a small board, chef's choice. I requested a fromage board, but got a charcuterie board . . . and that's okay, as I was lucky enough to get some tasty prosciutto. The cheeses ranged from chunky and savory to creamy to tangy. Went great with the honey and French bread. Most menu cocktails are average, but there is an "off the menu" selection you can ask for (mostly bourbon based, owner/bar tender creations). I enjoyed working with my server to get try some more unique choices. Between the charcuterie board, the bourbon drinks, and the boeuf bourguignon, the meal was great. I will say the boeuf bourguignon wasn't quite as wowing as last time . . . no pearl onions or carrots . . . but still good. I'm pretty sure the menu has changed or is maybe smaller. But no matter . . . the mood and the welcoming atmosphere and lack of crowds makes up for this. I think I might return and try the French onion soup. I'm sure it's killer.

    Came here for dinner but was pretty disappointed. The service was very attentive and I have nothing…read morebad to say about that. Our waitress came over to check on us numerous times throughout dinner. The foie gras was under seasoned and didn't taste like much of anything. Both the beef and chicken were very homey dishes but yet again, under seasoned. The mashed potatoes could use more butter and some salt in the food would've made all the difference. The place itself is pretty cute with a lot of local artwork. We probably won't be back
