EaterApril 25, 2013Satellite Room, the newest of the Hilton Bros. projects, serves up drinks in a chic diner atmosphere. Sip on boozy milkshakes, or grab a beer on tap.
Amy GraffJune 13, 2017Cheap, loud, quick, and a little messy. The Satellite mixes dive bar with diner and delivers it with a side of awesome service and tunes. Great place to grab a pre 9:30 Club bite.
Diana BrodyApril 3, 2018Great beer, tasty snacks (5 kinds of tater tots, including poutine tots!), and the space is very cool. Cozy but sleek booths, a huge, gorgeous neon sign above the bar, & a nice outdoor patio.
Bitches Who BrunchMarch 4, 2016The Vincent Vega with Bourbon, vanilla ice cream, and whipped cream is just as good as the milkshake at your favorite childhood diner, but loaded with liquor. They are deceivingly strong. Read more
Great spot/crowd. Some of the nicest bartenders I've come across in the city. Even on a cold night the outside patio was well warmed and comfortable. The mac n cheese is legit.
Dave DettloffApril 16, 2013Order your shake early and where you have a seat or stool (mine took two attempts and 20 minutes to get at the bar), but worth it! Bartenders are great and fast at cocktails.
Curt SallingerJuly 24, 2016Great place some drinks prior to a show at the 930 Club. Word on the street is that the brunch is solid too, but I haven't verified yet.
Macaroni and Cheese was spectacular and could not stop raving about the peanut butter boozy shake. Highly skeptical at first, but this place is amazing!
Tater tots come inside the breakfast burrito. Be still my grease-clogged heart.
Brittany JobesMay 22, 2017Great spot to grab a drink and meet the band after a show at the 9:30 club. The food looked good too!
Marianna MuratovaAugust 10, 2014Great boozy milkshakes and chilly fries. Also, a very cool atmosphere if grabbing a drink with a friend
WinterOctober 19, 2012The meatloaf is family sized and delicious. We subbed the mashed potatoes for sweet potato fries. You will definitely leave full.
Karen ElizabethJune 22, 2015Boozy milkshakes and tots were good but EVERY thing else is borderline inedible. The patio is open for smokers, so expect second hand smoke with your wutang mimosas.
BOctober 8, 2017Great decor. Great atmosphere and music. Delicious and fairly strong boozy milkshakes.

BROADSApril 29, 2013With boozy milkshakes and build your own cheeseburgers this spot is a Broads dream come true!
The fish tacos are still good, but the rest of the menu has been on a slow decline. Patty melt sounds tempting, right? Don't do it - Satellite Room's definition of marble rye is mind boggling.

Come to Wu Tang Wednesdays starting at 10pm. With special drinks prices!
Grilled peanut butter & marshmallow sandwich is like nothing I've ever had before, absolutely amazing!
Oh my god. The elote! The best pseudo corn on the cob I've ever had. Great spot.
JonquilynDecember 8, 2012Try their spiked milkshakes. They're $10 but totally worth it. Their tater tots are great too.- WinterOctober 19, 2012They have a drink here called the Patsy Stone. She's an icon who knows her drinks. In other words, get it.
Try to AC Slater boozy milkshake. Don't be afraid of the avocado. It's AMAZING.
Chris CegielskiDecember 30, 2012Pretty cool diner behind the 9:30 club with a surprisingly good menu!
