Vibrant, long-running rock music club featuring regular live events in a unique space.
Love the venue went to see my sons band great sound quality great stage staff at bar super nice. Always awesome to see a band at a venue keeping new music alive. Reminds me of a place I played in late 80’s with my band the NY Citizens called CBGBs. It was our go to in NYC for over 18 shows. I commend the owner and the staff for running such an awesome venue!

The loveliest experience. Great bookstore, great staff, and the podcast studio is such a great service they provide for the community. Just came from my first recording there- San was super helpful and knowledgeable. Got a great book on the way out too. Can’t wait to be back in studio and to attend their events! Looks like a great line-up. Please support this wonderful establishment!

What to order: El Jefe Empanada · Popcorn · Monday Mezcal (cocktail)Amazing venue and community space 💕 Just put on a comedy fundraiser here and it was a fab experience! The space is beautiful, but cozy; the staff is warm and talented; the GM and other managing staff was so helpful and accommodating! Literally cannot say enough positive stuff about Caveat—plus if patronizing thoughtful and politically-engaged businesses is important to you (it is to me!) know that this venue has community resources, KYR information and is a safe place for EVERYONE in NYC ❤️🔥

What to order: Mozzarella sticks · Chicken tendersWent here for my birthday around 9:30/10pm on a rainy Saturday and it ended up being perfect. It wasn’t crowded at all and we didn’t have to wait to bowl. We didn’t try the food, but the vibes were great and we had such a fun time. Definitely a good spot for a chill night out with friends.

Theater complex with multiple screens featuring new release films, plush seating & concession stand.
What to order: Popcorn · Long Island Iced TeaI never anticipated that I would be writing a review about a movie theater. Recently, I hosted a birthday celebration there, and unfortunately, one of my friends took a tumble on the subway stairs before arriving. Thankfully, a manager promptly provided ice for her ankle, while two ushers graciously assisted her to her seat. Their kindness and support made a difficult situation much easier. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the staff for their exceptional care and compassion. Tha

Hip, well-known bands are booked into this midsize, 3-level concert venue.
What to order: Burger · Chicken tenders and friesWent to my first concert here yesterday (DAISY GRENADE HEADLINER, WOOH!!). Even though I enjoyed the concert as a whole, my friends and I were very disappointed with the lack of venue security. When I've been to see this artist before, we've ALWAYS had venue security, which is especially important when people are moshing and crowd surfing during the show. The artist's tour manager had to come on stage to help out the people who were crowd surfing, which became an unexpected extra task for these

What to order: Roasted Peking Duck · Dong Po PorkWe came here for the Peking duck (half price on Wednesdays) with a group of friends. It was absolutely phenomenal and something I wish I could have everyday! Every other dish we sampled was fresh and full of flavor. Hope to go back in the future! The inside is clean and comfortable. However, the water glasses were extremely tiny and the staff was constantly refilling the glasses. The cups for tea were also very small. Besides that, we loved our visit!

What to order: Porterhouse Steak · Angus NY Strip Steak Frites · Essex Burger · Fried CalamariI’m starting this review with the drink because it truly deserves the spotlight. I ordered the Purple Rose Martini, and it was exceptional — beautifully balanced, fragrant, and honestly one of the best drinks I’ve had in a long time. For appetizers, we had the trio of dips: hummus, baba ghanoush, and tzatziki, served with warm pita. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful — the perfect beginning to the meal. For my main, I went with the vegan Beyond Meat burger, and it exceeded expect

What to order: Picasso Punch · Basquiat Iced Tea · truffle fries · slidersHad such an amazing experience at Sip & Pour! Alani was an incredible bartender — super friendly, attentive, and made the entire experience fun and welcoming from start to finish. Steven was also an amazing teacher and explained everything in a way that made it easy to follow while still keeping the vibe entertaining and interactive. You can tell they both genuinely enjoy what they do. I’ll definitely be coming back for another class/event. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun night out

I.really recommend the cachapas con queso(empanada on top of it) me and my freinds couldn't help but be reminded of our three grandmother's. Slightly sweet corn Pancake with cheese in between. V

Colorful group-friendly spot serving the namesake rice porridge plus a huge menu of Cantonese faves.
What to order: Chinese Sausage Bamboo Baked Rice · Sampan Congee · Garlic Chicken · Salt & Pepper ShrimpThis lap cheong bamboo baked rice is my dream meal for under $11!! Congee Village is a longtime chinatown staple (30 years strong!), serving family style cantonese dishes, dim sum, congee, and rice at reasonable prices. We also get a free mung bean sweet soup at the end. I’ve been to their Flushing location for dim sum before, but their entrees are even better imo. ＊Chinese Sausage Bamboo Baked Rice 金銀臘腸燉飯 $10.95 ** Such amazing value!
