    Happy Halloween
    Sama C.

    Came here for Halloween and this place was poppin! Great atmosphere with the main bar/dance area. In the back there is another bar with another open area for dancing or lounging. They have an open rooftop area located in the far back as well. This spot is definitely a place to hangout and get your groove on.

    Calamari

    Went to this dive sports bar last week for a friend's birthday. The food portions were generous, but not that good. The DJ played good music, but when the game was on the TV noise level was ridiculously and unnecessarily loud. This place does NOT check for COVID vaccinations - a big no-no! The place became extremely crowded quickly and the staff didn't wear masks, was eating food in front of us and not washing their hands before serving us- very unsanitary during regular times, especially unsanitary during a pandemic. I felt very unsafe, but I guess the locals and staff couldn't care less. They do have an outdoor patio, but once it gets cold I'm not sure if that will be an option.

    So during the pandemic its hard to find a restaurant you haven't ordered from a million times. That's were the District comes in handy Its a relaunch of the old Play bar, Refreshed and with a New Menu. Takeout only at this point, but they have outdoor seating where you can sip a Cocktail while waiting for your meal. We ordered a few Burgers & Panini sandwiches and we enjoyed everything.

    Pig wings

    Outdoor dining allowed in NYC, and District seemed a perfect place to begin. Big spacious backyard with plenty of shaded areas Huge variety of items on menu ranging from appetizers to sandwiches and pizza. We had the pig wings, cause why not? You can have buffalo wings anytime. Very good. They were simple to eat and delicious. One bone, minimal work We had the Garlic Knot Chicken parm vodka sliders. Why have I never had this before? Anywhere! Nice presentation with basil I would not return as a patron of the bar scene. Not my crowd and too far from my house. I would certainly return to try other items though

    Chicken tacos with penne vodka

    Waited for someone to greet us at the door for at least 10-15 minutes because for some reason the bartender looked at us and didn't notify anyone a customer was there. Unfortunately the back that's decorated in holiday lights was being used for a party so we sat indoors. Both of our drinks were good. We ordered the beef empanadas which were great. They came out right away but after that we were waiting a good while for our entrees. He got the steak frites and said he liked it. I got the chicken tacos with penne vodka which was good but would've been better if it didn't arrive cold.

    Backyard Bar Make it Nice!!!!!!

    I would never have thought that this place used to be Play, I'm glad that they decided to change the theme into something I call modern. During covid time, their back yard dining was very nice and exquisite, kind of made me feel like I was in the city and not Staten Island. Food overall was satisfying, drinks were good although it can be pricey, but do definitely try it out, and FYI I love the buffalo calamari.

    The perfect drink
    Joe B.

    Another great experience by this restauranteur. He surely understands the importance of quality food - sweet Thai calamari and bacon Mac&cheese - hit the perfect elements of satisfaction and scrumptious. Management and the service was helpful with our request for vegan options (delicious cauliflower pizza) and we were pleasantly surprised to find out they cater! Can't wait to have them for my next backyard party. Atmosphere was friendly with a laid back "social" vibe. Finally, the gorgeous orange hue of their bubbly bourbon aperol cocktail Agent X was the perfect kickstart to our dinner party. Will be back very soon especially since the staff all had masks and offered us a contactless method for reading the menu! Best of luck!

    Great cocktail menu!

    The service wasn't great. Waited for waters and drinks for a while. Food was pretty good. Recommend the fat joe sliders.

    I've lived past this place for years and I finally decided to try it and this place seriously did…read morenot disappoint, the vibes, just everything I'm in complete awe. I could immediately tell this place was going to be a good regular spot. Brendan the bartenders vibes were so incredible, recommended the best drinks, we ordered food an hour before closing (terrible I know) and it was so delicious. The nachos were great! I couldn't recommend this place enough please please give it a try!

    After seeing Rock House Bar and Grille all over social media, I had been dying to try their…read moresignature Bloody Mary! let me tell you, the trip over the Outerbridge to Staten Island was absolutely worth it. Between the atmosphere, the charm, the creativity, and the overall experience- I would vote this the best dive bar in NYC (I think Guy Fieri would agree). Tucked inside a historic building, this place has such a unique, intimate feel. The energy, the staff, the food, the drinks and the live band, was fuggetabouit I checked out their website and then experiencing it in person, I can confidently say... The Rock House is a VIBE for sure! So the space is on the smaller side, but all part of that neighborhood vibe. It's like Rock Glam meets neighborhood bar in like a Cheers type setting what I'm sure there are regulars. For a night out with 10 people- we locked down the bathroom corner and I actually enjoyed being able to sit close with my friends. Felt like we had best seats in the house but when you look around... everyone kind of has the best seats since the bar is central to the entire perimeter. As a nurse, I've only ever been out that way for Northwell on Seguine, so I had no idea there was even a spot like this tucked at the end. Hidden gem for sure. And don't let the word "bar" fool you okay this place delivers on food Big ups to "Rocker Jen," the owner, who was hanging out like one of the patrons, she not only served up looks, but jumped in to make her signature Bloody Mary. When I say it's a meal in a cup, I mean it- my inner foodie was so excited Onion rings, fried pickles, a bacon-wrapped hot dog, fried sweet shrimp, a pretzel, chicken fingers, and two of the best cheeseburger sliders I've had in a while. And you already know I'm a foodie... ahem Yelp Elite I really can't stop thinking of that delicious rim too. What really surprised me is that it's not just a bar with entertainment- I read- it's also dog-friendly, which makes it even better . Check out their website for happy hour details, events, and happenings... Rock House Bar and Grille knocked it out of the park. I'll absolutely be back. If you love Rock Music and good food and drinks- do not miss this place- enjoy
