Thursdays are salsa nights. Generally free, with a live band, and a decent DJ.
Stacy RegisfordAugust 25, 2013Get there early for seats....needed another hour to really get in my groooooooooove
Make sure you come to see Strawberryfields on Saturdays at 12 pm!
- Come see Strawberry Fields every Saturday for the Beatles brunch.
Concert Ticket AgencySeptember 27, 2012Come here for the blues, not the food. Bring cash for the beer bucket guy if it's crowded, you may never make it back from the bar!
Janet ClarkFebruary 12, 2012Sea salt ice cream sounds fun, not on lunch menu. fried chicken was not good. Mac and cheese a goid choice.
Hailey NguyenJuly 24, 2017There's a $10 minimum per person, and the food is way too overpriced. Great for live music though.
The music venue equivalent of a U.S. airline. They cram you in like sardines and give you mediocre food served by indifferent staff. Unless there is someone you absolutely love playing here, avoid.
HellenSeptember 1, 2013They don't pay much attention to dietary restrictions. Indicated an allergy therefore no mixed veggies, which were hiding in the mashed. When I indicated the mistake, no apology at all.
Daniee BiatchhDecember 25, 2012please do not order the pork tenderloin it is dry and the sauce is not that appetizing either, the sweet potato hash poorly seasoned the only thing good is the garlic spinach . Your welcome .
There are so great MALE VOCAL PERFORMANCES there is I do say so myself! ;-)
DHR.comFebruary 14, 2012This is a place of great music and fantastic southern food. This club and grill is also known for the amazing performances by the Harlem Gospel Choir, happening during the Sunday Gospel Brunch.
New York HabitatJuly 30, 2012This is a great place if you love hearing good music from live bands! The food is also very delicious & it is in the heart of Times Square! It's usually free on Tuesdays & Thursday nights :-)
Broadway Boxing be happening here allot, by Lou Dibella Ent.
Laura WongJuly 27, 2017Small and intimate venue which was nice but the bartenders were very slow and fairly rude.
Karen GillFebruary 3, 2016The food was good, portions small, but quite expensive. Service was very slow!Don't plan to return.
