Must. Absolutely must get the butter lettuce salad with chicken, radish, goat cheese, and toasted almonds. Avocado toast (with chili flakes) is also a winner.

Pork hock is crispy and juicy. But the vege are great and I really liked broccoli rabe.

Bloody Caesar and Michelada are amazing. Staff is the coolest. If you like salmon, get the Benedict.

Probably one of my favorite dining experiences in the city was here. Get to know the staff and they will treat you like kings and queens.

Lively, local place with an amazing seasonal menu, great cocktails, and top notch service. Highly recommend.

With only seven tables and a straightforward menu of strip steak and roasted chicken, you might just feel like you're at a dinner party with your new best friends.
Peter BoyceAugust 12, 2012
Easily one of the best brunches in the city. Get the egg sandwich & a side of the country fried bacon. The siracha brussels sprouts won't disappoint.
Tom M.August 25, 2013
Seems you can't go wrong with any selections here, especially the avocado toast with scrambled eggs that I had

Best Bloody Mary in the city. Get a side of Brussels with whatever. Brunch fried chicken sandwich. Dinner: pork hock.

Great place for brunch. cauliflower (app) and Siracha brussel sprouts (side) are wonderful.
Eloise EatonJune 29, 2017
Very friendly place. Toast over cooked. Soft boiled eggs overdone but after sent back they were perfect. Poached eggs were very good too.
Eve ChouMarch 11, 2016
The fried bacon is amazing! The brunch here is delicious and worth the wait.
Nicolette RomeroOctober 11, 2014
Wash down the egg sandwich with a Bloody Mary. Both are so good! Don't forget to add bacon and avocado to the sandwich!
JenMarieJune 28, 2013
This is now top on my NYC list! Delicious. Avocado toast, roasted cauliflower, peach panzanella salad, and interesting, fresh cocktails.
Albert YuenJanuary 19, 2015
The Bloody Mary's here are great as are the brunch items generally. I would recommend not straying too far from the tried and true menu items.

Saucisson l’ail was phenomenal. Favorite breakfast in NYC. Good coffee and good service too.

I would consider myself someone who knows brussels sprouts. But I have never known brussels sprouts such as these. Make sure you know them also.
Sofia PapastamelosSeptember 7, 2015
Very cute and cozy brunch place. Get the egg sandwich and pick your bread of choice!

3 words. Fried. Chicken. Sandwich.
Mike ThompsonJuly 23, 2014
One of the best small dinner spots in the city. No reservations to go at 6pm on the dot or be prepared to wait.

If you can't get into this brunch hotspot cross the street to Jefferson's (their sister restaurant) and grab a bloody mary while you wait for them to seat you across the street :)
Vee BeeSeptember 11, 2013
Great neighborhood gem. There's no AC though, so on a hot humid day it's no cool haven. Fabulous food and friendly employees.
Lili BazAugust 24, 2019
Good service , good food, good beer selection! Recommend the chicken sandwich
Nick FodenJanuary 16, 2014
Brussels Sprouts, Veggie Cobbler, salted Caramel pudding and Hip Hop after 9pm! This place is amazing for small groups.

Still in its youth, Joseph Leonard is already essential to the neighborhood. Gabe Stulman's tiny neighborhood spot puts out a great vibe and even better food. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

What’s up with the avocado toast? Disappointing. I had a great dinner/drinks experience, but I think their brunch is skippable.
Suzy TranSeptember 29, 2018
Egg sandwich comes with a side of brussels sprouts. Was so tasty.
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014
Best entrée we've tasted there so far is artic char seared in brown butter, or, for lighter diners, a mushroom omelet. Read more

Place is a bit small, wait time is long, BUT it's worth it.. The food was great, their french toast was delicious.

A bold statement, but maybe my favorite brunch in the city , everything is good. Especially the egg sandwich and brussel sprouts
Garrison PriceMay 30, 2016
Always knew this gem to have great cocktails. But, go for breakfast! It's delicious and they have some healthful options.
Andrea BarrezuetaSeptember 10, 2014
Where to begin? Everything I've had here is amazing but the artic char remains clearly in my mind/taste buds

Best meal I've had in a while. Order the rock shrimp app, escargot toast, steak, scallops, and stuffing. And the service is amazing.
