ChelseaJuly 11, 2013New York Magazine Cheap Eats issue recommends the Breakfast Torta ($10) containing a fried egg, bacon, cheddar, avocado, miso mayo, jalapeno relish, black-bean puree, and a housemade hash-brown patty.
A L E XMay 24, 2015A bit on the pricer side of life, offering some rare and undiscovered brews and wine. A place to go to try new things. Prepare to pay more and still be hungry.
CompassApril 25, 2014Earl’s Beer and Cheese’s slightly-more-serious sister restaurant boasts extended wine selections and quirky high-end dishes from foie gras fluffernutters to a handful of wines on tap.
CarolynJune 12, 2015The cornbread and pickles that come with the fried chicken is exceptional (the chicken isn't bad, either), the gnocchi is good, and the chips & dip make a great starter.
Village VoiceNovember 14, 2013Acclaimed Chef Corey Cova knows how to pair sweet with savory. You must try the "seared lobe which comes with marshmallow, peanut butter, apple, and hazelnut crumble."
Daniel L.July 5, 2013The cheesy, oozy, spicy breakfast torta is the best hangover special and the best "I have to go back to work on a Monday" sandwich. Grab one and head to the park.- CompassApril 18, 2014Brick walls, high ceilings, and repurposed wood are the backdrop of the rustic wine bar. Small plates are worth trying while sipping on funky drinks.
Liz GoodbandFebruary 13, 2015Great brunch. Had fried chicken n biscuits. Kid friendly. Sat at the bar and pulled up the stroller.
New salad is amazing! Pickled onions and slice of sharp and nutty cheese make for a unique, refreshing salad.
Nikki PalumboJuly 23, 2013What to get: breakfast torta, $10. Fried egg, bacon, melted Cheddar, avocado, miso mayo, jalapeño relish, black-bean puree, hash-brown patty.
The Wall Street JournalApril 5, 2012On a calm evening, go for the low-ABV Scottish lager, the pilsner from Kulmbacher. The De Dolle Brouwers' Dulle Teve, 10% ABV, is for a more raucous occasion. Read more
Jen TallmanDecember 15, 2013Eggs benedict is ridiculous. Best thing i've ever eaten. The hashbrowns ON the benedict take it to a whole new level.
JacquiFebruary 22, 2013No more late night happy hour (HH 5-7pm now). Recommended: brisket torta, winter gnocchi. Fish tacos 4lyfe. RIP fried pickles.
Katie McGrathJuly 16, 2016broccoli mezzaluna is amazing; ravioli with hints of garlic, chili, lemon. gimme mooorrreeeee
MichaelAugust 31, 2013The lamb meatballs and also the fish tacos, foie gras fluffernutter, and summer gnocchi
Patrick KanaleyFebruary 14, 2017Really affordable wine by the glass or bottle ($10/$36), and quite good.

Best fish tacos! Make sure you order the super fries too!
Dev AnandFebruary 28, 2012yeah you probably came from Earl's huh? Wash away all that grease with some premium vino and dessert. Snipe that corner table too.
- Try the Fried Blueberry Pie With Pie Crust Ice Cream - Love this dessert!!
The angostura sour is light and frothy with a nice bite. Tons of bitters!- Try the Loco Moco - This dish is unbelievably awesome!! I want it again...NOW!! #eating
Brandon CobbAugust 12, 2012Brisket torta and General Chang offer all sorts of delirious deliciousness.
Harlem AmbassadorJune 4, 2013They are working damn hard to give you an "Upper East Side" feel with the sauve attitude and sky high pricing. $14 for a glass of vino means that you will pay in the stratosphere for half the wine.
Red FabbriNovember 1, 2012Wish this place was on Avenue A so I could try the whole menu when I get back. I guess I'll have a reason to come uptown again.
