“ Decided to meet a friend here prior to a Knicks game. It's in a great location for that and the staff was so kind. I arrived solo and it was tough to get seating, but the lady at front quickly cleaned out some chairs for me and my friend. There's a happy hour menu and if you're into whiskey cocktails, everything was good. Great pregame spot for Madison Square Garden. It does get crowded but once game starts, it empties out. ”
“ A great fun place to watch a ball game. They have great pizza, cheeseburger sliders and buffalo wings. Their service is friendly and energetic. Location is great just south of Madison Square Gardens. ”
“ I was looking for a fun place to go near penn station and this place never diappoints. The food is great and the staff is friendly. We planned on just going for drinks and apps but ended up staying for dinner too. I highly reccomend this place if your looking for somewhere near MSG or Penn Station. Best, Phil ”
“ This is a decent sized bar with upstairs space available for private parties. It's a sports bar, but has a bit of charm to it. I came for a group event. We reserved two tables opposite the bar. Servers were helpful and attentive. They accommodated individual tabs and bills for guests, which was very appreciated. Their sweet potato fries were perfectly airy and crispy. Definitely a hit with our group. I didn't try the sliders, but folks seemed to enjoy those as well. The mini grilled cheese sandwiches had a nice, slightly crunchy top layer. They provided carafes of water for easy refills. We over-ordered and they gave us plenty of to-go containers and bags so the food didn't go to waste. On a Tuesday, it was initially a bit crowded with pre-gamers for the Rangers game at nearby MSG, but it cleared out quickly around 7. They started playing loud-ish dance music as the evening went on, so depending on when you go, it may be a bit hard to hold a conversation. ”
“ American Whiskey, woohoo! I never knew there were so many bourbon and whiskeys in one venue. I swear they have like 28 different brands of Rye. The food is definitely slept on here - the panko crusted chicken tenders are probably the best I've had in NYC because they're extra extra extra crunchy. They totally perfected that crunch factor while keeping the meat piping hot and moist in my opinion. Idk what the dipping sauce was but it was super sweet and spicy and automatically comes with it. Get those tenders on top of their kale Caesar and order the specialty cocktail called "Strike Me Dead" and you are SET! I get this exact combination every time but need to deviate soon and try new things. There's also a huge upstairs "loft" area with another bar. Private parties probably? Really cool to watch the Rangers game at or like myself I go prior to pregame before hitting up Madison Square Garden since this place is only 1 block away. ”
