Reviews & Tips

  I brought a groupon coupon for a really good price. I went an they didnt have 75% of the items on the menu, me and my boyfriend were incredible disappointed. We sat at the bar with one other older gentleman and the rest of the restaurant was empty. I gave the waiter/bartender our groupon and he gave us our food and then he disappeared. So we didnt bother to leave a tip and just left when we were done with our food. As for the food it was ok, not something i would crave.

  Lounge Review ONLY
  
  There are no great lounges in Yonkers, but this one is pretty nice... plus you don't have to go all the way to Manhattan to party!
  
  My friend celebrated a birthday here. Very accommodating place. Clean, well-decorated, drinks were good and reasonably priced, nice mixed crowd all dressed appropriately. There seemed to be a couple birthday parties and everyone looked happy. No complaints here. I might even consider doing my own birthday party here...
  
  Not ghetto, not rowdy, not overly packed, not expensive and very close to home. Who could complain?

  The Best Burger I have Ever, Ever had!!!  
  
  The food is awesome and the drinks are wonderful. I highly recommend the mojitos, I drink em down.  Oh and they have this uber cool, (no pun intended), sub-zero beer tap that keeps your draft at the absolute perfect temp.  Sweet.
  
  Everything is fairly reasonable.  It's beautiful, clean and unique.  Plenty of TV screens.  The ideal place I think of when I want to meet up with just about anybody.
  
  I've had their wings, tostones, nachos and empanadas and it's not unusual for me to order seconds.  Mac and cheese is off the hook.  The zeppoles steal the show for me, and I'm someone that hates fried dough.  Comes served with powdered sugar, nutella and strawberry sauce.  Honestly it's worth it to come in just for that.
  
  This is a very unique, chill spot but very simple.  Glamour divas please go elsewhere.

  Nice decoration - food is good - bar food nothing special  - I went on a Friday with my sister; place was empty around 7pm and cold apparently they don't turn on the heat until 10 pm which is also the time the DJ comes in- so you sit in silence cause they don't play music unless you pay for it yourself in the jukebox - What happen to the time when bars had music? seriously.... it's a bar!!!!

  I was dragged here this weekend by one of my friends to watch the fight. As we were parking, we were approached by a crackhead on a mission. This minor encounter set the stage for the night.
  
  The place itself is very nicely decorated. As you enter, they have several decent sized tables. To your left, is the bar which has three large screen tvs so you can view different games in progress. On the right, are a few couches with very tiny tables. On that same side towards the end, is the last large screen tv.
  
  As I walked in, all I heard was this melodramatic music. The kind you play as you contemplate suicide because of a broken relationship. Eventually, this was replaced with 70s music which again was not my style. After a few rounds of these songs, then came the old school reggaeton...remember Gasolina? As H.D. mentions, this is played at the highest volume possible. You literally have to grab an ear in order to be heard.
  
  The clientele was mainly off duty cops or wanna be mafia men. Several groupie women were lurking around...the kind that desperately try to hang on to whatever youth they still had. This crowd was definitely in their mid 40s or older. I ended up feeling like a kid amongst them.
  
  The food requires a serious upgrade or a more capable chef. We ordered empanadas which were LADEN with grease. I ordered three drinks but didn't even catch a buzz. This was due to the more than ample ice provided for the tiny cup that it was served with. The staff was friendly and ensured we didn't end up with a mile high pile of garbage on our micro tables.
  
  I ended up leaving early because my stomach was unable to handle the super greasy empanadas. To say this place is in the realm of a tapas spot would be a very long stretch. This is the kind of bar that you would drop by after work for a quick drink and a look at the scores...that is if you work as a cop or in "construction" for a living.

  I was so happy to see that a tapas place would be opening in my neighborhood.  We went there on a Friday evening to try it out (hoping for tasty tapas).  Their menu is very small and consists more of bar food then tapas.  They have wings, sliders, pot stickers, nachos, etc.  The only thing that was in the tapas realm was empanadas.  Everything was fried and we left feeling very greasy.  
  
  The staff was very pleasant.  This could be a decent place to watch a football game (they have a few tv's) but not a tapas place at all.
