Laurence PaverdOctober 9, 2013Great decor, haphazard service. Could fast become unpleasant when packed with the dregs of what Williamsburg has become.
Santi AraujoAugust 10, 2014The empanadas are really really small for the price you pay. But are delicious. Also the waiters are very lost and the service is slow.
- I PNovember 27, 2017Seating area around fireplace is very cozy. Food wasn't that great. Chicken dish was good. But burger and ribs aren't.
If the place is somewhat empty, the pizza is pretty damn awesome...
Belinda SwbdSeptember 27, 2017Nice staff but we had to wait quite long for our food. Not many vegetarian dishes on the menu.
Andrea CuberosAugust 24, 2019The pizza was really bad .. totally raw. It was not toasted. The simple hamburger. Very bad attention.
Alex CompanioniMay 28, 201630 minutes after ordering, my meal hadn't arrived. Service is bad during brunch. Too many other good spots in the area to deal with it.
Amanda LMarch 19, 2022I got the worst food poisoning from this place. Wine list is pretty solid though.
Johnny WonAugust 1, 2015Skip this place and go next door. The service is slow and not quite good, food is over priced.
AilínAugust 10, 2014High prices for the food you get. The service is slow and careless. Skip this place.
Josefina Alvarez CastilloFebruary 17, 2015MUY lindo. El lugar, el ambiente, la gente. Vimos el mundial y me sentí como en casa. Dueños argentinos. Hay empanadas

"Don't leave without trying something off their delicious southern cuisine menu. The Catfish sandwich, the fried chicken, the pizzas, the milkshakes...all quality Blue Ribbon food."
