Love the decor and ambience. The service was attentive and the food was delicious! The oxtail was flavorful and tender, the Rasta pasta was nice and spicy. The rum punch is so good! My only note, is the pineapple wings didn't have any pineapple flavor to them - would've been nice if they used real pineapple or pineapple juice to make the sauce so you could really taste the pineapple flavor but they were battered and fried perfectly. Can't wait to come back! read more

Drips is a cool spot. I've been twice for happy hour. It's lively and has decent specials during the time. Food and drinks are decent and service is pleasant. The after work crowd can make the place a little tight if you want to sit at the bar. read more

I had a great experience! read more

As a Jamaican, it is rare that I enjoy Jamaican food unless it's a takeout spot. A lot of fine dining spots sacrifice flavor when they focus on creativity. The ackee and saltfish breadfruit bites with sweet plantains on top were perfect. The snapper meal came with callaloo sides (which were surprisingly not bitter), mashed potatoes and surrounded by veggies and okra. Flavor was amazing and I couldn't finish it at all and this was $45 with the margarita included For restaurant week. Everyone raved at how strong they were. Now for the ambiance- the place had a romantic vibe as it had dark walls with red roses. Cute for a date night and had a live steel pan performer which was perfect as I could still hear my friends talk. The server was nice, gave 2 free birthday cakes, but the only negative I can think is that the service didn't come out at the same time for everyone for the drinks/appetizer/entrees. A1. read more

The bartenders are unprofessional and rude. Kenisha and Matthew have no sense of customer service. I've given this place a chance multiple times because they make fast food, but this will be the last time i come here. Bartender Matthew heard me ask him if their "fruit punch" had alcohol in there, said no and after I ordered, I somehow ended up with a rum punch. Apparently he "never serves punch without alcohol in there" If the item is not available, why have it on the menu? Kenisha is rude and we have had zero interaction since the last time she tried to disrespect me, and I had a conversation with the owner. Barry and Jerome are the only ones that have respect towards the customers and should be working elsewhere. I see why Tracy left. Came back after 2 months (used to stop by once a week) and I know why. This will be the last time i come back to this establishment. read more

Last Sunday me and my beautiful fiancé were looking for someplace to have brunch, and I stumbled upon drips restaurant and lounge in the Bronx. I have driven past this restaurant many times in my life and I never knew that it was here from the outside. The restaurant is not very glamorous but once you step inside the interior decorations, the music and the atmosphere just screams hidden gem. The staff was very welcoming, and the patrons were dressed to impress. The restaurant played A lot of throwback R&B hits which made the experience even more enjoyable. I noticed a lot of people ordering the oxtail Rasta pasta so I definitely had to try it for my appetizer. I got the drippy sweet chili wings, for my entrée I got the oxtail Rasta pasta included with the meal. Was your choice of bottomless mimosas or screwdrivers. I chose the screwdriver. When the wings came to the table, they were still piping hot and the sauce was amazing. The wings were crispy. Just the way you would expect once I finished my appetizer maybe 10 minutes later my food came out and the presentation was amazing. The portions were very hearty definitely worth every penny. I left the restaurant absolutely satisfied and I cannot wait to come back to this restaurant and try some more of their dishes. It was a great dining experience and even if just for drinks, I'm sure it will be an amazing time as well. read more

Checked out Drips on a Wednesday evening for happy hour which lasts all day. I loved the space. It's small inside, but gives upscale vibes. They have a mix of high chair and regular seating. They were playing RnB hits all night which was great when the drinks kicked in. Everything for happy hour is approximately $6-$8 so I tried the Sweet Chili wings and passionfruit lemon drop. The wings were crispy and fresh! This was my first time having a lemon drop and the flavor was delicious. I also tried the Mango Lemon drop too. I would recommend either! Service isn't speedy, but it is not terrible. You have good music, great ambiance and drinks. read more

Drip was dripping with charm. A cozy, cute and intimate restaurant that immediately pulls you in with its inviting vibe and delicious smells. From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a good time. The space is small with tight seating, making it perfect for a date night or an intimate group celebration. Adding to the lively atmosphere was a DJ spinning tracks that had us dirty winding in our seats all night--definitely a highlight of the night! Service started off quick and attentive but slowed down considerably as the night went on. However, the food was well worth the wait--each dish was packed with flavor and cooked to near perfection. I kicked things off with the ackee and saltfish tacos, sampled the mac and cheese, and for my main, I had the curry goat with rasta pasta. Every bite was banging. For drinks, we went with the carafe of rum punch, which was just the right amount for our group of four to each enjoy a full small glass. Overall, Drip delivers on both vibe and flavor, though a bit more consistency in service would make it an even better experience. Would definitely return! read more

Hi , I was honestly a bit disappointed because our appetizers took about an hour to come out . We had got there around 930ish & we didn't not receive it till 10:45 . Our waiter Mary never came to apologize or check up on , another waiter came & asks us if we were still waiting for our appetizers. Once we received it , i called our waiter to place the entrees . Her words exactly "hurry up because the kitchen is going to close . I said that is not our problem since our appetizers took this long & she proceeded to say yeah the kitchen is running a little slow . STILL NO APOLOGIES. Food came out warm & I was even more disappointed because it was not bad at all . We had another waiter check up our food & her customer service was excellent don't remember her name but she was lightskin/short curly hair . That she ended up finishing us off . Once again the vibes , food was great but that customer service from Mary and the wait time for the food was unbelievable. read more

I went to try this place another places I found on TikTok that had good reviews and is not far from my house decide to try it with my cousin . When we got there they go by reservation for table because is a very small place we decide to sit a the bar. They don't have a big selection of food or drinks. We decide to go with the oxtail which was delicious I tried the signature drink which was ok could have used more liquor but overall i was ok a little pricey . The bartender was not the best think it was too busy for her to be attentive to everyone at the bar seemed like she was the only one making the drinks so waited long to get one. read more

Reservations are a must for this very quaint establishment. Be advised that when making your reservation, there will the option of a table top or lounge seating. There is no "lounge" per se. All seating is in one area. The lounge seating is just your regular table and chair set up. Nevertheless. We came on a Saturday night. There was a live DJ. The place was crowded. Our server, Tracey was a doll! Very nice and had good recommendations. We ordered the Taco Trio w/ Shrimp, which was fresh and totally delicious. Since we weren't really hungry we opted to just get the jerk fried rice (with shrimp) which they gave a small portion of but we were able to share it. That too was very good, just a bit spice. The drinks were great as well. Tracey recommended the Montego Bay, which they can also do as a mocktail. We also ordered the drips Margarita. Overall this spot is cute. It has a nice elegant vibe to it. I don't think it's a place to frequent because it is so mall. Maybe when they upgrade to a bigger spot. read more

Not a very big location but definitely big enough for a 6-8 person party size. Went here on a Friday so it was pretty low key not crowded. The service is top tier - attentive and inviting. We had 2 waitresses and both were equally great. The food was so tasty. I enjoyed most of the dishes I tried with the exception of the red velvet waffles ( was very dense). The drinks were amazing - I am not a Hennessey drinker but very much enjoyed the Henny Margarita. I will definitely be returning! read more

What can I say I love this place and and the workers here. Few past coworkers decided to do a happy hour get together. We chose Drips. Menu did not disappoint. Food was fooding. Drinks were drinking. Dj dis his thing, kept the vibe pumping. Staff was on point. This night truly lived up to come for the food stay for the vibe. We started out in the main area and then we changed to the other side. We spent a total of roughly 5 hours. So if you looking foe a spot to do, friends giving, friendsmas, or just a get together, do it at Drips. read more

I came here for dinner over the weekend with one of my girlfriends and there was A LOT to be desired. First off, it's a pretty small spot so if you have a party of more than 5, this isn't the place. We went around 10pm on a Saturday and it was pretty packed. The tables are a little too close together for my liking, but that's minor. Anyways... the server introduced herself and then circled back later to take our drink order. Took us quite a bit to receive our drinks, but not crazy. I had a drips margarita which was actually really good especially because I love sorrel. Now here's where the problems started. The waitress (who was cool) took our appetizer and entree order. Every appetizer that we attempted to order was "finished". No ackee, no wings, etc. This is a Jamaican spot, so they live up to that "We nuh have dat" stereotype (IYKYK) lol. The owner even came out and spoke to us and let us know that certain items were out. We ended up just ordering the jerk chicken quesadilla, which was lil skimpy and nothing special. On top of that, it took us almost an hour to receive our entree and we were irritated at that point. They actually not once, but TWICE sent the wrong order to our table. The side of plantain that I ordered was the worst plantain I've ever had in my life. I don't know why they'd even serve that. I sent it back. Now, I will say that the curry shrimp I ordered was actually pretty flavorful. They got these 2 stars because the flavors of my drink and entree were nice, but y'all got a lot of work to do!! read more

First off the place is small suggest you make reservations the food took a hour to get to us my dish Rasta pasta was ok a bit too creamy the goat had a game taste my wife food the mash potatoes was warm besides that the drinks was ok will I go back probably not and also it's more of a younger crowd we both in our 50's read more

I had the Rasta Pasta and rum punch--Chef's kiss! This is a really cozy spot. Great for couples. The decor is moody and vibrant. I loved it. Reminds me of an upscale Manhattan-type of lounge. I wish, though, the wait staff were a bit more personable. In fact, most of the staff moving around seemEd uninspire. Sure they appeared quickly when the service lamp was activated but it felt a little like I was bothering my server (Whose name I can't remember because they never introduced themselves or made the experience memorable enough for me to memorize the name tag ) . I hope the next time I come my server will do things like offer water, ask if I've ever been there before, give food recommendations, or check-in once or twice during the meal...little things like that make the difference. Overall, I loved the food and ambiance. Will definitely reserve a spot there again. read more

The music was good. The bartender Kenisha is very nice and knows how to make drinks. Food was on the skimpy side for that price. Very small space so you're basically elbow to elbow. Biggest problem was charging to dine in. This is definitely a first and last kind of experience. read more

It was just okay, but there is definitely room for improvement. I came here on a date on a Thursday night, and there was a nice crowd. The place is very small, but it did not feel crowded with too much in the space. The aesthetics were great, and the customer service was friendly. The ordering process was seamless, but unfortunately they were out of oxtails which my date wanted. In addition, I tried to order my salmon at the temperature of my liking (medium), but I was told that the salmon was precooked. In the type of establishment it aims to be, I would was surprised the salmon was not cooked to order. Salmon does not take that long too cook. I could understand oxtail being precooked but not salmon.The drinks came out in a timely manner, and were great in presentation and in flavor. Prior to the appetizers coming out, we were informed by our server that the entrees would be coming out at the same time. This was annoying because they really should not be coming at the same time. She ended up bringing out the appetizers first, and they were okay. I had the calamari which was fried nicely, but the seasoning throughout each piece was inconsistent. Some were seasoned perfectly and others not so much. Next, when the entrees came out they were luke warm because they had been sitting out ( I am assuming because they were ready at the same time as the appetizers). The salmon was pretty good, though I wish I could've ordered it to my liking. The rice and peas were good and flavorful. My date had the shrimp rasta pasta and he shared that it was good, but it did not wow him. As far as the service, it was slow and inconsistent. When we received our appetizers, we did not get any utensils or small plates to eat off of. In fact, my date had to get both of these things on his own. The music was good, and I had a good time overall. I understand its a new establishment, so I hope they are just working out some of the kinks. If you read my reviews, you know I am brunch girly so I would love to return for brunch. If for nothing else, go for the drinks! read more

I came here to catch up and celebrate my friends birthday , we had a lovely time. From the moment I entered the establishment up until the moment we left, I had a good time and experienced great service. Our server was very sweet and patient. We came on a Wednesday which happens to be the day where happy hour is all available all day! To eat we had the shrimp tacos, jerk chicken tacos and ordered jerk chicken to go. The shrimp tacos were AMAZING. Usually when I order shrimp tacos they give 3 unseasoned baby shrimp , that was NOT the case here. The shrimp are chopped, seasoned extremely well and cooked just right! The dipping sauce to accompany it was delicious as well. To drink we had the rum punch and sorrel mule. The rum punch punches back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. Although it the establishment is small, they didn't cut any corners with decor, service, or flavor. If I return to the Bronx I'd definitely come back here! This place is perfect for a date night of any kind. I wouldn't say it's suitable for large groups. Street parking is available as well. The only thing I was unhappy with was the portion of chicken I received in my to go order, especially given the amount of rice provided and price paid. The chicken was well seasoned and the jerk sauce that came with it needs to be bottled and sold immediately! It went so well on the chicken and the rice. read more

18% dine in charge is overkill for a restaurant, where you sit and dine? Customers are already paying for the food, taxes and tip. On a more positive note, the oxtail rasta pasta was really good and staff was attentive. Music was nice. I wouldn't return due to the dine in charge. read more

Ordered on the Too Good to Go app and least to say it was pretty good! Not just pretty good, it was amazing! I called right after placing the order to make sure there was no seafood as I have an allergy to one and not only were they super accommodating but really friendly and understanding about it. The service felt warm like I've been there before, the staff is respectful and attentive. Would definitely come back here again (for an actual dinner this time)! read more

Giving it a 3 because a lot of things where missing or not right. When we arrived we were greeted and sat down immediately. The waiter came back a few times before we were ready to order but never once mentioned restaurant week (that was our reason for trying out this restaurant out). So upon ordering we mentioned were they honoring restaurant week and the waiter responded yes. We gave him the whole run down of what we wanted. When he returned he only returned with one appetizer and one drink and it was a party of two. We were wondering why not just bring out the drinks first and then the appetizers together. So that was annoying. Before the appetizers were brought out we asked about the complimentary plaintain chips and the waiter said it would be brought out soon...We never received them (don't advertise something and not honor it). We ordered the Drip Taco Trio which was okay but needed some additional sauce on the side. We also ordered the Drippy Wings which were okay as well but weren't spicy. The second drinks and appetizers were brought out maybe 12 mins later causing us not to enjoy our drinks and appetizers together (nobody wants their food to get cold or drinks to water down by waiting). Dinner took another 15-20 mins. I must mention that while ordering the waiter asked if I wanted my rasta mild, spicy, or extra spicy, I told him mild but upon tasting my food it was more on the spicer side; the pasta was flavorful I must give credit there. But another thing that annoyed me was that was the piece of chicken I was given for my rasta past was a chicken thigh. I had to sit and take bones out...when ordering pasta I expect it to be easy and clean. I expected some form of boneless chicken. Lastly, when my husband received the bill I found it odd that the waiter did not walk away to allow him to look it over. He stood next to us making us feel pressured to immediately settle the bill. Overall it was okay but I had higher expectations and they weren't met. read more

Came here for my girlfriends birthday, although I did not say anything to the waiters, I saw others celebrate their birthday and I could see how the restaurant was very family like and the celebration in general was very cute. The music was fire and had us dancing and singing in our seats the whole time lol. The food was great! We had the skirt steak, Mac and cheese and the quesadilla among other things. Everything was really good, I wouldn't order the Mac and cheese if you don't like a garlic taste but it was still really good. The meat was cooked to perfection, so soft and tasty. The drink I ordered was the island vibe for my partner and they really liked it as well. The price is a little pricey for what it is, especially the skirt steak since it is a bit small. But the bill wasn't bad at all overall everything we ordered came out to a bit over 100 with tip included. Service was nice, waiter was attentive and I believe the owner? Also seemed to be very hands on and even asked us once we were leaving how the food was. no complaints here overall 10/10. read more

Extremely disappointed. First, the good: The atmosphere is a vibe. There was a great DJ playing hits and while the place is on the small side-as in, there isn't even a place to wait for a table inside should you have to- the decor is super cute and on trend. The food is really, REALLY good. The food that we received, that is. Here's what we ordered: Ackee & Saltfish Plaintain Cups - 8/10 The ackee & saltfish mixture was phenomenal, but it needed extra salt and I personally would've preferred it made with the sweeter plaintain variety. Curry Shrimp - 9.5/10 Soooo good. Some of the best curry sauce I've ever tasted. Even the plain white rice they served with it was good. The curry had the slightest hint of spice and was so robust in flavor. My only gripe with this dish is that it was overpriced for the portion. I ate the entire plate, because it was sized small enough for my 5 yr old stepson lol. Fried Whole Red Snapper: 10/10 My dining partner loved it! I tasted a piece of it, it was perfectly light, flavorful and flaky. Jerk Chicken Fried Rice: ..............To be continued The drinks were unimpressive. We tried the margarita, the Ya Mon and the Island Vibes. They were virtually all juice. Now, the bad: We were at this place for a total of 2 hours and 45 mins and never received all of our food. What we did get was the receiving end of poor service and logistics. We made a reservation and were seated immediately upon arrival. The waitress was attentive and took our order promptly, first drinks and appetizer, then about 15 minutes later, our entree order. However, we sat for the next 1 hour and 15 minutes with just the appetizer and first round of WEAK drinks. The drinks took at least 30 minutes to be delivered to us themselves. The waitress came over multiple times ensuring us that our food would be right out. However, after an hour it still wasn't there. It was at the moment I saw the table next to us, who I KNOW came a good 30-40 minutes after us, get their apps, drinks AND entrees, that I knew something was amiss with the placing of our order and that they must've missed our order totally. I was right! The floor manager came over and told us that the cook had missed seeing our order completely and was now going to mad dash and make it for us. After that, we still waited another 15 minutes before my curry shrimp was delivered and still 10 minutes more for my friend's Red Snapper entree. To make matters worse, they ran out of fried rice to make the jerk chicken fried rice that I had ordered to take with me to go, at the SAME time we ordered all of our other food. They forgot about it and by the time we reminded them it was missing, they had run out of it....a whole 2 and half hours AFTER we ordered. We kept our composure while there, but we were livid. I know that they are a rather new establishment, but our service was extremely poor and inefficient. Not once did our waitress apologize for our orders not arriving, as I believe she actually did not fully put the orders all taken around the same time through , as another table she was serving two seats away from us, who arrived maybe 10 mins after us, had a severely delayed arrival of food as well. While the manager was extremely apologetic, she did NOTHING to rectify the situation. This is my PRIMARY issue with our experience here. If you mess up, FIX it...especially in a space where people are spending their hard earned money to have a nice dining out experience and patronize your business. It is absolutely unacceptable to have patrons sitting there for almost 3 hours without receiving everything they ordered and to not offer them anything to maybe help them "forget" that they're being inconvenienced. When she initially realized our entree order had never been fully pushed through, a complimentary round of drinks should've been sent or a significant discount on the bill should've been given. There was nothing given but lackluster apologies. When the manager came for the second time to tell us that they had run out of the fried rice, I wasn't even offered an alternate option! I'm a former hospitality & travel consultant and my friend runs operations for TWO restaurant lounges , so we KNOW the restaurant/bar space, and this was not okay. While the food was delicious (albeit with small portions, especially for a Caribbean restaurant), the drinks were not worth it and the food alone was not good enough to ever return in person. What a shame. read more
