Michael Steven WilliamsJune 30, 2016Feels like a rooftop spot even though it is on the ground floor! Very chill and great drinks!
Jennifer KavanaghSeptember 2, 2013Fun summer 'pop up' spot. No frills but great location, drinks (although the spirit list is limited) and delish brick oven pizza.
Paige CMay 13, 2019I love this place for drinks or some delicious pizzas. Super dog friendly! Service is always slow but the atmosphere and food make up for it!
Lauren MacAugust 22, 2015Expensive, but adorable. Decor is an outdoor oasis from NYC. Service even apologized for the wait. Watermelon margarita ($16) was a brim-full mason jar, flavorful and not fake. Very strong...worth it.
JulieSeptember 13, 2013Walk into Montauk in NYC. Love this spot and its eggplant pizza. Add a Pisco or two and you are set for a cozy afternoon
Wallpaper* MagazineJune 28, 2013Try Gilligan's signature watermelon margarita, garnished with slices of the fruit spiced with salt and chilli powder. Read more
ErikMay 30, 2016Space looks newly renovated since we were last here. Much bigger. Range of seating options. Same beach vibe, but greatly improved.
Glamazon DiariesJune 20, 2011Skip the packed restos in the neighborhood and head to this cozy outdoor spot with friends for cocktails. Grab a burger and fries, which are cooked on a grill outside.
Anuj MathurJuly 26, 2016bewildered by the apathetic service? it might be the lack of incentive (20% gratuity mandatory).
Russell SinclairApril 12, 2014Like you stepped into a tiki bar in Soho. Don't forget your boat shoes.
Amy CummingsJuly 3, 2017Watermelon margaritas 🍉 the food isn't that great but the drinks are strong and the atmosphere is super cute.
a great hideway that most of soho doesn't know about. take the back stairs near the elevators on the lobby floor.
Andrej RusakovOctober 8, 2021Absolutely terrible dry $42 “market fish” (branzino) and horrific $12 side broccoli. $16 Shrimp starter was ok. Inattentive service. The alley with all the greens is nice though.
New York PRJuly 5, 2018They say the tables are only for people ordering food but you can just say ok and the waitresses are happy to serve you just drinks.
Virginia L.August 29, 2015Really terrible service for a table of 10 for after work drinks. We only got 1 round because server ignored us and was rude when we did get her attention. Won't be back which is a shame.- New York PRJune 30, 2016The atmosphere is great but the service is terrible. We received 2 warm bottles of rosé.

Deanne YeeMay 6, 2010Think of it as an outsourced backyard for summer sips. Can't wait to kick it with friends soon.
