    Love this modern, yet rustic restaurant. The Barcelona cocktail was amazing and the everything we ordered was extremely tasty. We had the pulled pork tacos, short rib burger, and Cajun burger. Yum!

    Place was empty, but plenty of staff at inside and rooftop bars... overall, loved it and felt very Brooklyn-ish with the industrial vibe and unique drinks and American foods (on point, but standard)!!

    Fried chicken, duck quesadillas, bread and maple butter, anything with tuna, shrimp curry. I tasted all of these at dinner with friends and everything was great!

    Delicious food and full bar. It's not too loud on a weekend night, which is always a plus for me. You can also eat at the bar if it's busy, just ask.

    For what you would expect the food is relatively inexpensive. The salad portions are huge. Tried the Guinness cake and it's now my favorite cake ever.

    Awesome location and ambiance in this stylish conversion of the old Armory but the menu is less inspired. It's more like a Friday's than the fine dining that deserves to be here.

    Great atmosphere! Be sure to try the bourbon apple cocktail. All plates are quite tasty, get a few and share with friends.

    48 different draft beers to choose from. House salad is good. Scallop dish is amazing. Nice crowd & atmosphere...

    The corned beef and hash was really good. But service is super slow. The restaurant decor is very modern and fancy.

    True, the menu isn't as progressive as the decor would lead you to believe, but that doesn't mean the food isn't good. Try the duck quesadillas with marscapone and cranberries for something different.

    The tall tables are no good for tall people. With your feet on the "footrest" your knees hit the table, and feet on the floor your shins hit the footrest.

    The black mojito is the only great thing in the menu. The duck quesadilla appetizer is good. Everything else is average. Burgers are greasy and scallops are just wrong. Also the veggie burger is awful
