    Scrambled Eggs and potatoes
    Rayshel W.

    Unlimited brunch drinks $30/person. You know the deal. All or nothing. Everyone at the table must do unlimited or no one does unlimited. Only champagne drink options for the unlimited but delicious. Not strong drinks though. Food was delicious. Service was mediocre for a Saturday afternoon. It felt like the waitress was stalling with the drinks. She was giving the table one pitcher at a time for a table of 4 when we were allowed 2 pitchers at a time. Not a good look. We had to request additional service from Other waitresses. Great music. Fun crowd. Mostly mid to late 20s and 30s.

    Raw chicken served

    Came for lunch with a few friends , ordered 4 orders of waffles and chicken , chicken was dead raw( pictured) they only removed the chicken from the bill . Charged us for the waffles !!! Didn't even offer a dessert or drink . This is just poor management!!! We came for a fun dining experience. They clearly ruined that!! These things happen , absolutely, but when clearly fall short , you should try to save the guest !!! Not at wicked Willy's !!!

    I came here for bottomless brunch with a group of friends. It's not that vibey inside. It's quite dark and I prefer a light and airy and brightly lit room. I got eggs Benedict with Canadian bacon and my friend got salmon eggs Benedict. We shared. I think the salmon was better. The drinks were not very strong. We got pitchers of everything. My friends liked the pineapple drink. I stuck with my mimosa. I probably wouldn't come back. There are a billion other places to do bottomless brunch in NYC.

    I actually enjoy going there now more than I initialy expected. Surprisingly, food is pretty decent, I liked the wings, mozerella sticks and fries also. Better than many of sports bar I have been to. And their atmosphere is pretty much in line with what the name suggests. If that's your vibe then you would like this. I actually go there specifically for karaoke nights (Wednesdays and Sundays), the host Hazel is awesome and there are quite a few excellent singers in regular pools. I know at least a couple of them have been on actual musicals and also professional singers. I mean, it's a karaoke show on stage so you do come across some bad singers but that's a part of it. But whether you're a singer or not, you would enjoy this. Good service both from waitstaff and bartender. I appreciate their points program they have.

    Mai Tai, Buffalo wings, loaded nachos

    Walking distance to Washington Square Park. They have outdoor and indoor eating. Decent size bar inside and different seating arrangements, with a small beer pong section. Came on a Saturday late afternoon. The Knicks playoff game was on, so it was pretty full. We were initially seated right in front of the speakers that were blasting the game. We asked to be moved and were offered a table in the beer pong section. It was much quieter there, so we gladly took the new seats. We ordered buffalo wings, flats only, loaded nachos, and two Mai Tais. They give water and small Mason jars to use. The food and service were good, and the drinks were strong. However, a palm sized water bug, also known as cukarachas/cockroach, started crawling down the wall next to my friends face as we ate. We jumped up and yelled for the waitress. One of the waiters brought a spray bottle, sprayed it onto the floor, and killed it. The guy then told us it's because of the wood on the walls. If you know this, why keep the wood and why put customers to sit right next to the walls... I know critters are expected in NYC, but not in the middle of a meal. We paid about $68 altogether.

    chicken and waffles
    Alice Z.

    Food: 4/5 | Service: 3/5 | Experience: 4/5 (Overall: 3.5/5) I came with a group of 6 for Saturday brunch. My ID was checked at the door. Upon walking in, you are immediately blasted with music and hit with how dark it is inside. We ordered the bottomless mimosas option, and I ordered the chicken and waffles. The mimosas were good. I really enjoyed the pineapple mint mimosa. As for the food, the chicken was covered in a really thick layer of cornmeal or breading, which was not the most pleasant, and the waffle was thin. Service was really slow whether it was getting more mimosas, getting the check and paying for it, or even getting us a to-go box. Our water pitcher was also not refilled at all - it was hard even getting a server's attention. We were also automatically charged a 22% tip. Overall, for what the experience is and the food portions / quality, although this bar has good mimosas, it is quite overpriced for what they offer.

    Very relaxed atmosphere, band(s) consisted of seasoned musicians who seemed to play more for themselves than the audience - like a jam session. Suggest you order at the bar, rather than wait for table service.

    OK, so Jamie W. and I just finished dinner at the Vinyl Steakhouse on 19th (review: https://bit.ly/3h6OoMW) and ambled over to our favorite hangout spot, Washington Square Park. We weren't in the mood to return to our hotel, so we concluded it must be tiki time. New York being New York, we found one nearby on Bleecker. Actually Wicked Willy describes himself as a Caribbean oasis. They have fishnets on the ceiling and grass hut fringe over the bar, so it was cose enough for us. It was Sunday karaoke night and except for a couple at the bar, the place was empty with a full staff trying not that hard to look busy. They serve food here, so the server was pushing their bar bites on us. But we just wanted something in an unnatural color to drink. Jamie ordered the $13 Wicked Mai Tai which had Bacardi black and white rum, orange and almond liqueur, pineapple juice, and angostura bitters (photo: https://bit.ly/3UmUwir). Tasty, a bit sweet and not that wicked. I went with the $14 Frozen Patron Paloma which combined Patron Silver tequila with grapefruit juice, salt, and lime. Somehow my drink rated a blinking rainbow light ice cube which mesmerized me to no end (video: https://bit.ly/3T63FLk). The karaoke started up with the DJ doing a fine version of Billy Joel's 'Piano Man' (video: https://bit.ly/3zIp6eD). The problem was that there was literally no chance of improvement with the next performer as the female half of the bar couple proved by covering Taylor Swift. At least I thought it was Taylor Swift. Time for us to drink more. Jamie segued to the $13 Hurricane Willy (photo: https://bit.ly/3UqSlKU). The mix of rums and passionfruit sounded more dangerous than it was. I was a bit more ballsy and ordered the $13 Tropical Tito's Pineapple Martini which gratefully came in a stemless glass (photo: https://bit.ly/3NxRVzS). Fortunately neither of us were drunk enough to do any karaoke performances though Jamie was convinced he could do "New York State of Mind" justice. Yep, it was time to go. COCKTAILS - 4 stars...better than expected with the ice cube that didn't quit AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...not as retro vintage as we preferred but tropical enough SERVICE - 3.5 stars...the young server was kinda humorless TOTAL - 4 stars...more into Otto than Willy (review: https://bit.ly/3THx5QQ)...but awfully convenient in the Village RELATED - Thirsty in NYC?

I ordered my typical "hot, wet , crispy" style with 2 blue cheese and there is it ! Really perfect as they could be and I was a happy man! Burgers looked great too and I'll be back !!

Cocktails are made with various types of rum and ingredients like grapefruit, maraschino, wormwood amaro, falernum, thyme, Assam tea, spiced lime, allspice, coconut, cucumber, nutmeg, sour orange. All the drinks keep with the tropical, fruity taste with a hint of spice. They are also broken up into categories (dry land = no alcohol, shallows = average amount of alcohol, and abyss (larger amounts of alcohol). The abyss section has some cocktails that are limited to two per customer. They have some bar bites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp toast, broiled oysters, ricotta, dumplings, sliders. I had the French fries with kimchi ranch, which were underwhelming. Bartenders were cool and kept the drinks coming. I got in immediately without an issue or a wait, but it was right after a snowstorm. I've seen some people struggle to get in or have a long wait.

Our friends raved about this place and we of course were excited (and a bit skeptical at first) to try it. The concept: no menu + no lights + a few questions = the ultimate cocktail experience. The speakeasy vibe and the dark ambiance really makes this place feel even more exclusive. With just a few tables and the bar setting, you're in for an experience you won't forget (unless you answer the wrong questions and really end up with a drink you don't like HA). This wasn't my case. Of course I described my two favorite things: Negroni + mezcal. The obvious answer would be a mezcal Negroni, but that's not why one comes to a place like Attaboy. Our amazing curator came by to ask us all a few questions, write down a few words in the napkins, and mix up the perfect drink that our master bartender crafts, curates and creates. My drink came as I couldn't possibly imagine. It looked like a Negroni smelled like Oaxaca, with all the smoke simmering up and preparing my sensory experience, leading to the best first sip. Ladies and gentleman, I introduce you to The Devil's Backbone. A perfectly balanced drink I'll never forget, one that is sipped slowly and enjoyed thoroughly. It's sexy, it's smoky it's sipped. Attaboy gave the best mixology experience and we can't wait to be back. Pro tip: be sure to be as vocal as possible, even with ice, so you don't end up with a tiki drink if that's not your vibe.
