I'm not one to write negative reviews, but Patrick (GM, I think owner, and my least favorite…read morepatrick including bateman) ruined this place for me. What is a very cool historic spot could be an insane hangout if it wasn't for the sauntering a**hole pissing on a good time. I went in with a friend of mine and we are both huge Coney Island regulars. Her more than me. She's been past the place a million times and they're never open. She asks him about this in a friendly way, saying we love the spot and we've been dying to come in. His response is super snide, and the he pulls out his phone and shoves the website in her face as if we didnt think to look them up. We tried twice to talk to the guy and both times he was extremely condescending and unfriendly. Then he went behind the bar and proceeded to complain about us out loud, 18 inches away as if we couldn't hear. just for trying to have a conversation? We weren't drunk or belligerent, just trying to tell him we like the spot. Guy seems totally uninterested in what it means to own or run a bar, much less a cool ass spot like this. If you go on a night (whenever they feel like being open for business--better check the website!!!!!) when Patrick isn't there and it's just the bartender Jamie-- he is super cool kind and a great time. Wish I got time to or felt welcome to exploring the place. Hope it goes under new ownership or I won't be back to try again. cheers.

This is certainly a hidden gem in Coney Island. This is a beautiful venue with a beautiful view of…read morethe beach and skyline. It's particularly best to come here during the summer.

I'm looking forward to coming here for brunch next time around.

When we started ordering the food they didn't have fish for tacos they didn't have steak for tacos and no pork I believe as well . She said the mozzarella sticks were really good . Then they come a they are just plain simple out the bag ones with sprinkled dry parley on top.

Service here is friendly and welcoming. The ambiance and very modern and chic. The drinks are bomb and the food was fresh and seasoned well. The plain fried wings were nice and crispy and I got my sauces on the side for alil kick. The hookah was also good... blueberry mint is my go to flavor. The dj was definitely spinning some tunes. Very clean restroom, nice decor. Great for after work, groups, date night, or even a girls night. Great happy hour pricing guaranteed to get you lit. I highly recommend.
