    Cosmic Spritz
    Craig C.

    Last night, my wife and I tried The Perfect Pint, which was next door to the place we were staying. We had just come from a very long and tiring day of sightseeing the Statue of Liberty, and we tired, hot (it was nearly 90° with humidity), and hungry. This is an Irish pub, and our server (maybe the owner?) was Padaric, who definitely was Irish with his accent. The first thing we did was order cold drinks. My wife opted for a Cosmic Spritz, while I had a glass of Stella Artois beer. They were both nice and cold. For our dinner, Padaric suggested the Irish Beef Stew, and boy was he right! Tender chunks of beef, mixed in with mashed potatoes, carrots, and a nice gravy. Yum! The decor is nice, with lots of TVs tuned to sports. All-in-all, a very nice ending to a long and hot day.

    I truly wanted to like this pub. The atmosphere is very nice. I ordered the Harp fish and chips and my wife ordered the rib and chicken combo. The chicken was tender and juicy. However, the ribs were overcooked. I had the same experience with the fish and chips. the fish was left in the fryer far too long. I could pick it up with my fingers and eat it like a chicken tender. It was rubbery and any flavor that might have benefited from the harp beer was lost. I've had a lot of fish and chips in a lot of Irish pubs. This was not up to par. The cole slaw tasted good. The fries were okay. Our waiter was friendly. He was prompt and attentive before he left for the evening. However, he handed off our table to the bartender who was obviously overextended. The dinner crowd was coming in at a fairly rapid pace and he simply couldn't keep up. I did have a Guinness that was a perfect pour. Kudos to him for that.

    We came here, mainly because it was listed as a sports bar and we wanted to watch a football game. Lots of TV's and they were willing to work with us to find seating where the game would be shown. Pretty large tap list and ice cold. Food was average bar food which is the only reason it is 4 stars, not 5. Enjoy.

    I came here to watch the Michigan vs OSU game. This isn't the exact vibe of a sports bar (clearly) but my friends and I wanted a chiller bar to talk while we watched the game. When I got there before kickoff, there was only 1 other person. They were playing a soccer game on the TVs. I asked if they could play the Michigan game and the nice bartender did! Except there was no sound at all... and no captions. I got a Magner's cider. My friend got the surf and turf.

    Stopped here for after work happy hour. Heard there's *good beer* here from some UK colleagues so-- gotta be good beer! But, dirty tricks with the bill at the end, cost a star. It's 3 floors and each has its own vibe, the top even has an outdoor section. The first, has _all_ the taps. Ended up with a stella, can't lose there! We got food too: hot wings and sweet potato fries. Bleu cheese & chipotle mayo was RIGHT on! Albeit they needed to be asked for ketchup. Wings were not super spicy, but still flavorful! Fries were standard. Healthy amount for 3 people! Now: why they got docked a star: the check at the end was split 3 ways, but, the "suggested gratuity" was based on the FULL AMOUNT on the whole bill, for each of the 3 people. Doesn't leave a good taste in my mouth or my wallet.

    I'm not much of a drinker or pub patron but this place is close to where I stay sometimes, when I'm in the city. So, I've stopped by a few times for a bite to eat or a drink. It can get crowded in the evenings and you may need to wait for a table or seat at the bar. At others times I've walked right in. Service is friendly but not overly attentive. It's a decent option if you are looking for pub food or drinks in this area of midtown.

    A pleasant pub, spread across three floors. Staff is courteous but operates at a leisurely pace. They pour a nice pint of Guinness. It tasted like a fresh keg. But, it's served very cold so I would not describe it as "perfect." Let's call it "very good."

    We stopped in here for dinner and a beer. I ordered the Garlic Burger, and it was pretty good! The fries were good as well.

    Sean took great care of our group and fixed a few small issues graciously. Food was delicious and the drinks were good. Would go back!

    Sean's easily accommodated our group of six. We started with pretzels and spinach artichoke dip…read morewith chips. The dip was hot and cheesy. Chips were replenished..eventually. The pretzels were more like warm soft breadsticks, served with a cheese dip and mustard on the side. Decor is an advertisement for Guinness but it IS an Irish pub in NYC. I had the Irish stew, a crock of hot beef and vegetables in a tasty gravy. Others in the group enjoyed burgers and salads. Next time I'll try the shepards pie. Server was pleasant and answered our questions.

    Walking around New York City on a drizzly Sunday, I walked into Sean's Bar & Kitchen to grab lunch…read more Typical looking New York, Irish pub, TVs, great vibe. Service from the bartender was great. I ordered the fish and chips and a Bloody Mary. Everything was great up till then. Unfortunately, the food was a disappointment. Maybe it was a deep fat fryer thing, but I respectfully suggest the cook be given a little additional training. The fish batter was hard on the outside, and the fish was completely mushy on the inside. Like, gray mush. The fries were lukewarm. The mushy peas and the tartar sauce were served in little covered plastic disposable containers. I'm not a fan of that, but I get it is convenient. I truly wanted to like this place, and except for my one experience with the food, I would certainly return. People were having fun, and I did as well. I believe if they become a little more attentive in the kitchen, this place is a five star pub.

    reviews here had me nervous!…read more ok..... so it's the week after christmas & midtown is a zoo. we were starving from walking around & we saw fitzpatrick's awning and i know the location in the 50s. went into the the wheeltapper walked past the bar to the tables. seems like some of the bad reviews are for the bar area which is small so i could see it getting tough to get served with an afterwork crowd. sat in a booth and was promptly given menus and asked if we wanted drinks. delicious pint of guinness. we got a variety of things and all plates were cleaned. My shepard's pie was on the small side but it was very tasty.

    This little place has great energy! I was staying at Fitzpatrick Hotel next door (I think they own…read moreit - that's what my receipt says). So I'm not a regular and don't know if it's always like this but on both the day and Wednesday nights the crowd was fairly large for a small pub and noise level was high. People enjoy libations and chatter. Restaurant seemed pretty full too. I stopped in for a simple to go order to bring to my room in the hotel. It was cold so I felt like a bowl of soup. Beef stroganoff was their soup of the day so I ordered it. I wasn't overly excited about stroganoff and when I opened it even less so it was like oil and water that wouldn't mix. I literally stirred it before each spoonful. But guess what? It grew on me and WAS really good!! Beef cubes, fresh mushrooms and onions and a belly warming broth. Hit the spot even though I was reluctant.
