    Cheddar Grits
    Justin W.

    Sweet Science is a decent brunch spot with cool, loud music from a professional DJ to set the vibe. They have a solid brunch menu with plenty of options and the ability to tag on bottomless mimosas for +$30/p. First off, the food is alright. The burger tasted good but the portion was small. I'd consider more like a slider than a burger. The cheddar grits side is 100% not worth it. Overall for the price, I don't think it was worth it. It'll be a fun time every once in a while.

    Crab Cake
    Parker G.

    What an absolutely and legitimately amazing experience! A space designed to be accessible, comfortable, and yet refined at the same time. Starting with the crab cake, I found it perfectly prepared, delectable, and delicious. I also loved all the cocktails we ordered, which were the perfect mix of strengthen and deliciously unique flavor. For entrees, the Sweet Science Burger and the Catfish Sandwich were both perfect in their preparation and taste. I'm saying this because I truly enjoyed them - yes, they were a bit pricey on the menu, but for me, they completely were warranted when it came to their quality and taste. So i have nothing at ALL to complain about. Not to mention the fact that service was extremely friendly and hospitable. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this place. Great food, service, and vibes. I definitely think it's worth it!

    Happy Hour Margarita

    I am a Sweet Science newbie. I had my first Happy Hour experience there yesterday and it will not be my last. Dropped in with a friend who is a Sweet Science regular. I liked the vibe immediately upon entry. Dim but not too dark lighting. Vintage feel. Fully stocked bar and a beautifully framed, larged photo of Biggie on the wall. We started our time there with really good Margaritas. I like mines classic. Ashley, the beautiful bartender made them just right. I sipped my drink and made friends with a really cool guy sitting next to me. He treated me and my friend to tequila shots. We asked for our shots to be served chilled upon my friend's suggestion. It was a great suggestion indeed. I ordered a burger from the hh menu. It was fresh and stacked! I take my burgers well done. I added a fried egg, crispy bacon and extra pickles. It was so good. My friend ordered a biscuit topped with saucy lobster and shrimps from the main menu. She raved about the sauce so I took a little of hers to drizzle over my burger. So good! We were told that Happy Hour is all day on Thursdays so we made a quick run to another spot and then made our way BACK to Sweet Science. I continued my night with rosé, mozzarella sticks, the most delicious mini skillet of crab dip and finally a whiskey sour. I'm late to Sweet Science and their vibe but better late than never. They have great music and large tv's showing sports too. I'll be back again and again. Good stuff!

    Hey Baby Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich

    Sweet Science is the place to go if you are in the mood for a lowkey , comfy eatery. I went during happy hour and the drinks did not disappoint. I ordered a guava margarita on the rocks and a frozen passion fruit margarita and both drinks were very good. The South Carolina tangy wings were alright to me but my friends loved it. The Maryland limb crab dip was the star of the show for me. (If you are a fan of dips such as artichoke dip or ragu's this would be a meal you enjoy). I also enjoyed the chicken biscuit(we cut it in half to split it via the picture). The chicken biscuit was both sweet and savory and the flavors blended together perfectly. I will definitely come back to this spot , there are many items on the menu that I love to try in the future.

    Sweet Science is such a gem for brunch in Brooklyn! My friend and I were dilly dallying all Sunday so why not stop by S.S to wrap up the festivities. Their brunch goes from 11-5pm, which is generous as most places wrap up brunch by 3pm. We got there around 4pm, grabbed two seats at the bar and ordered the lobster, shrimp & biscuits to split. The food was spot on, very fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Every dish that came out for other patrons also looked good. The vibes were also immaculate. The music was great as the DJ kept the chunzzz coming. The crowd was lively but not overwhelming or overly stimulating like most brunch spots. The space is also welcoming whether you're with friends or flying solo. On top of that, there was plenty of street parking, which is always a win in New York. The only reason I'm giving 4 (it's really a 4.5) stars instead of 5 is because the bartender tossed out my mocktail when I went to the restroom. Like miss ma'am, you take my full glass but not the empty ones still sitting on top the bar. Sigh. She offered to re-make it but I was over it. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and I'll definitely be back for brunch again.

    I love this bar, even if it was where I watched the Knicks get eliminated this past season. This particular spot wasn't a destination for us, it was just an inviting bar on a corner we were walking by. However, it was exactly what we wanted for the evening: cocktails and seats to watch the Knicks, with a good crowd but not so many people that it was unbearable. Sweet Science seems to be exactly what a lot of people need or want, judging by our first visit. They've also got: -A big beautiful bar. -Affordable cocktails. -A great beer selection. -Good music, when the Knicks sound wasn't on. -Huge open air windows, and great tables outside. -Food that we have yet to get down with (I liked the menu though). -Paint & Sip going on in the back that night (along with other events all the time). Plus, I got to mansplain to my wife about how the sweet science is boxing. What else could you ask for?

    Shrimp & lobster biscuit
    Tamika G.

    Wish I was able to say a vibe waa had. Unfortunately was a hit and miss at my visit to sweet science. The music was good..not too loud, energy in the resturant fantastic, the service was cool as well. That's about all the positive I got. Our bottomless mimosa was more like bottles of champagne only. Each flavor lacking and the pitchers lacking a proper balance of juice to champagne. Food was decent. While our shrimp and lobster in it's flavorful sauce paired was the cheesy grits was amazing. The biscuit was dense. Our crabcakes was flavorful, lump crab, fresh avocado and a heap of crispy onions. The steak and eggs was a disaster. Eggs were slapped on the plate and steak was bloody. My temperature request was medium but clearly they did not let the steak rest.

    I came here for bottomless brunch with my friends and we had a great time. They don't seat you unless your entire party is present. The restaurant is kind of dark as the rain added to the gloominess unfortunately but we still had a good time. We all got mimosas and you can choose your favor of mango, orange, passionfruit, and guava. I enjoyed passionfruit and guava. A bucket of champagne bottles are brought out so you can make your own mimosas. We ordered: - Hey Baby Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich: I added Cajun fries. This was sooo good. I loved that the chicken had a glaze and wasn't dry. The biscuit as a bun was a great addition/detail. It also came with a salad. I wish the fries were a little crunchier. - Jerk Chicken Hash: my friends enjoyed this - Breakfast Burrito: this looked huge - avocado tomato toast with poached egg Service was a little slow. We had to flag down the servers a few times.

    Jerk Chicken Hash  Boneless chicken, potato, onions & peppers cooked in homemade jerk seasoning w/over easy eggs. Served w/cheddar grits

The music is at a low enough volume that you can hear your conversations, it doesn't get too crowded so you can spread out, even if you're in a large group. Downstairs, it's a lot tighter, with a DJ, dance floor, lounge seating area, and a much more packed and busy atmosphere on the weekends. I like ping ponging between both vibes when I'm with friends. Admittedly I've found the music both times to be too experimental for me. Confessing that makes me feel like an old person shaking my fist or at least shaking my head, misunderstanding what makes the youth tick. But I had no trouble twirling around the dance floor to this weird experimental music after throwing back a few tequila sodas upstairs. A few times while here my friends have split up into the group that wants to go downstairs to dance and the group that wants to stay upstairs and chill. It's relatively easy to navigate between both vibes, which I enjoy about this spot very much.

    Came here on a quiet weeknight by a total mistake!…read more We came to grab some drinks at the rooftop bar and catch the sunset and gorgeous views. When we saw "Water Tower" on the elevator we decided to press it. SO GLAD WE DID. We landed at the Water Tower and walked into a fairly empty space decorated with art all the way to the ceiling, filled with natural light coming in and the views of the skyline were out of this world. We had to try their drinks of course to enjoy with the incredible view. Though the drinks are $21 and served in a plastic cup that evening, I was NOT expecting my drink to be this insanely delicious. I ordered the inferno Paloma which they infuse themselves with- and it was true perfection. By the way, each bar has their own menu which is pretty awesome and makes it even more fun. Also, Axel is the most incredible bartender and we absolutely loved his creations. Later that night we ordered a custom mandarin margarita, with a spicy twist, and WOW. He's truly talented and absolutely made us some awesome drinks that we can't stop talking about. Sunset with a view and a spicy mezcal drink? Yes and YES. We had this place all to ourselves and can't wait to be back. Friday nights they have DJ nights and you can also book the Water Tower for your own private events which is pretty cool!

I've never ate here, but I recommend grabbing drinks during the summer months when they open the canopy. It's a nice rooftop feel. However, I went on a fall Saturday night and the place was completely empty. I walked upstairs and even wondered if the bar was open due to a chair blocking the entrance. If I didn't ask the waiter if they were open, I would assume they were closed and would've left. If it was near closing hours, I would understand, but it was 2 hours prior to it.

It is too bad Yelp doesn't allow half stars as I would honestly put this one at a 3.5 and am rounding up. While the quality of the elevated seafood bites is immaculate, they are just that: a bite or two of food, for an elevated price considering the amount of food you get. After spending $76 a person, we were still hungry, whereas that amount would have been enough to feed two average women at another good restaurant. But if you go with an expense account or trust fund baby, definitely get the scallops and the yellowtail pastrami because those two items will blow your mind. Our waitress pointed these two out to us and we're grateful for her guidance because it was spot on. Paying for bread at a Solomonov joint is odd. No dessert menu is odder. Wheelchair access details: The bar is on a terrace. The accessible entrance is through the Hoxton hotel. A staff member will take you through the k'far kitchen and up via a service elevator. No barriers once you are upstairs and plenty of accessible outdoor and indoor/outdoor options, including a small length of wheelchair height bar. A perfectly functional though unexciting wheelchair accessible restroom is available.
