    Pilar

    I got the caufields dream and two pilars. Both so good ! The pilar was so savoury! My friend says his patty melt was "so good" with some real gusto in his voice. And he's not one for compliments. The atmosphere is what really seals the deal. It has that je ne sais quoi. I might end up coming here every time I visit New York.

    Some amazing cocktails - check Great food - check A Backyard for summer drinks - check Wonderful people - check Bushwick vibe - check One thing that keeps it from being 5 stars - check** **The Narrows has by far the worst bar stools in all of Brooklyn. Yup I said it. Now they are pretty, they look wonderful with the backdrop of the space, but they are so so wrong. Well unless you are over 6'4 in which case you might be ok with them. They have no backs, are super high and have no footrests. Even my tall man friend had his legs dangling like a 3-years old. They have a slight dip in them as well. You can't adjust how you sit what so ever.... like I said worst bar stools in Brooklyn. So for that they lose a star, that's seriously how terrible they are.

    See all

    This bar sucks. The music is quiet. The bartenders cater to their friends. They are rude. Very unwelcoming.

    Old school, roughly elegant. These people are genuine, pleasant and polite hosts. Unique vintage movie like bar experience!

    My experience was nothing short of spectacular. Once I told my friends I was visiting town for the…read moreweekend, we immediately said we would do dinner. This place was the winner, and it was everyone's first time. We got in at our reserved time, and we had to wait about 5 minutes before our table was ready. Once it was, we were taken care of and quite frankly had no idea what treat we were in for! Let's start with the drinks. They have a drink on the menu called Celadon City. Who won the staff as a pokémaniac?! I had to get it just for the name. The rice vodka, yuzu, melon liqueur, and other flavors made it a fantastic, summery drink. My friends got the Smooth Landing & Smooth Talker ... One was a fantastic dirty martini and the other had the best bite of ginger. The food... Oh my God. We decided to split the breads and spreads and burrata... Each came with their housemade grilled focaccia, and the smoked paprika hummus and ricotta with chili honey? WHEW! The burrata dish with the sweet potato, pesto and tomato jam was a hit too. The menu didn't even say I'd have a balsamic drizzle on top! All of that was just the warm up... My gnocchi dish was spectacular. I'm not even a big mushroom person, but those oyster mushrooms and charred kale were a hit in the pasta. My friends' gigli pasta and mussels were great too. We ended up sharing a bottle of white wine as well, and the dinner was truly a 5/5. 0 I would absolutely go back, and it seems like their menu changes every now and then. I'm looking forward to the next time! Even if it's just for a cocktail.

    Cozy spot for dates or groups! The food portions were very generous for the pricing. Staff were…read morefriendly and attentive. The must-get item is the burrata! It was fresh and paired perfectly with the focaccia bread. The burrata comes on top of a tomato jam, pesto, and sweet potato that all complemented each other. The PEI Mussels and the Braised Pork Shoulder pasta were good, but a tad bit salty. For 2 people, the three dishes were more than enough and we even had leftovers.
