Joe bacaMay 24, 2014Amazing staff, simple quality Italian brunch and never an empty glass. Bonus tip, if you are a chile (with an e) head, Mario's ghost hot sauce is amazing and for sale.
This place is AWESOME!... The food is tasty and priced right; the staff is friendly and entertaining; only go here if you want to have a great time; best brunch/brunch deal in Park Slope; try a Destro
Christina AnitsirhcNovember 9, 2013$3.95 for unlimited mimosas, bellinis and/or bloody Mary's- and they're not weak. food and service are pretty great too. and the music! this is a 💎 in the rough
Matt CottomAugust 11, 2011Great drinks and great food. Friendly staff and a nice place to relax and have a good time. Laid back and serene with a slick, unpretentious international vibe.
Beatrice G.October 1, 2013Beet gnocchi is a must to try! I would recommend this place to family and friends.
Thomas WoodDecember 7, 2013Brunch: Meals are $12.95 and you can add unlimited drinks (mimosas, bellinis, bloody Mary's, champagne) for $3.95
Melissa CastellanosSeptember 22, 2013Really great place for brunch! I always have an amazing experience. Great food and service!
$1 chicken wings and happy hour ($2 off all booze) all during the superbowl
- Matt CottomAugust 12, 2011Don't listen to the hatrers. This place is one of the chillest, laid back places in the slope to get good drinks and good food. I love this place.
carol dronsfieldAugust 29, 2011Fab Tortino di Melanzane.(eggplant Napoleon). Mario is a wonderful host! Stop by when roaming 5th Ave. Brooklyn!
Coleman DoveAugust 9, 2011Try everything here, love the food!!!! So glad a southern boy could find a place he loves in the north!
HilaryMay 26, 2011Fantastic brunch. Great food, prompt service, and bottomless bloody marys. Need I say more?
Nick WillSeptember 27, 2013Great place to kick back and kill a Sunday afternoon over good drinks and tasty food
Adrienne RhodesApril 4, 2010I don't know what the other commenters are talking about... My experience was friendly staff, cute decor and good food. I had the beet gnocci and it was exceptional.
Emily KSeptember 5, 2010$10 brunch. Add $3 for unlimited mimosas, bellinis, and bloody marys oh my! Burger with gorgonzola is my fav.
A shame the service is so bad b/c their brunch is so good.It was empty, were seated by the window.When we said it was too cold, told we couldn't change seats, would take too long to set table.
Emily SchwendDecember 19, 2010Please do not come here. The salads were piled with shredded cheese, the bread was sliced and processed, the entree was like diner food without the charm but inexplicably with hash browns?
new drinks are created every night when Mario is there!!
Amanda YNovember 12, 2012Coffee was lukewarm, staff aloof and the hollandaise sauce was eh. Definitely will not be coming back.
Mike HornOctober 22, 2011Walked into this place, practically no one was there, waited 20 minutes and no one walked over to our table. We got up and walked out. They weren't even remotely apologetic. Go somewhere else.
Tammi WilliamsJuly 9, 2011Found nothing good about this place. Eggs over cooked. Weak coffee. Hash browns that were greasy and seemed leftover from the day before. So-so bloody Mary. Don't waste your time or money.
Nicholas CiceroApril 5, 2013Don't deviate from the pre fix menus or you will pay over $20 for lunch . Food is fair service is poor
Fr TetMarch 14, 2010Ok, simple tip, just do not come here. I got served tea in a little expresso cup, the bread was not toasted, and the waiter came back 3 times asking again what our order was.
Carolyn WeissDecember 13, 2009Do yourself a favor if you're looking for good Italian food in the Slope - go to Al Di La or Sette or basically any other restaurant except for this place, which is pretty mediocre.
Katie BurtonOctober 22, 2011Service is awful even when slow. Left after 10 minutes of being totally ignored. Brunch fail.
