    Asian food side of the menu.
    Paul C.

    My goodness, what an incredible find! Fantastic Malaysian food in a Seaport dive bar atmosphere, served with the kind of care and excitement that only a truly invested owner brings to the table. We had the chicken wings, the crispy chicken, and the scallion pancakes, and every dish was outstanding. I'm already planning my next visit for the fried rice, the curry, and pretty much everything else on that side of the menu. A gem.

    Amazing Malaysian food inside a dive bar... not many actual hidden gems in NYC, but this is one of them. Crispy fried rice with chicken was fantastic, and the curry laksa was amazing. Shareable among three people as a light meal. Guys working there were super friendly, too!

    Really laid back, divey spot. We came with a large group of friends and our server was so accommodating and kind. She went above and beyond. I ordered the lobster roll and thought it was just ok- but ultimately, will definitely be returning!

    I knew it was going to be a good time when we arrived and there was a group of people trying to figure out how to get inside, and the friend that brought me showed us all the trick of getting the door open. That's when I discovered that smack in the middle of the Seaport District (one of the most touristy parts of Manhattan), hidden in plain sight behind a tricky door is in fact a legendary dive bar. Not only are the prices here far and away better than the surrounding establishments, but the maniac behind the bar will pour you shots of whiskey on the house. Over, and over again. I ended up ordering some food to soak up all the extra liquor I hadn't planned on imbibing, and I was pleasantly surprised by the wings, the fried rice, and the scallion pancakes. All excellent, and the latter two are not things I normally expect to eat at dive bars. As we stumbled out, the bartender shook his head disapprovingly at our inability to handle 4-5 shots of whiskey in rapid succession (after a long evening of drinking just before), "You're not in Fishmarket shape." Well, I guess I'll have to get in Fishmarket shape, and I'll be back.

    This place is packed How do they still get drinks on time, food hot, and a free shot??? Listen, I have lived in the shadows of Manhattan my whole life. I have eaten at the best and worst places This is hands down the best fried rice ever!!!! Wings were great Everyone is friendly Including the customers I'm coming back

    Best Crispy Fried Rice!

    Market itself as a dive bar. That works if you want to spend $6.50 for a can of miller lite at 5:30 pm on a Monday.

Surrounding TVs keep every play, fight and miracle replayed in glorious surround-sass while wooden tables beg for pitchers, pretzels and conspiracy theories about the ref. Whether you're upstairs for the 3rd floor vibe, mid-level for the perfect sightline, or down in the cozy den with the best acoustics, this is New York sports bar energy: loud, a little brazen, impossibly welcoming. One particular bartender, Delaney not only brings an awesome level of energy to the bar, she saunters in like a halftime show -- a grin that's equal parts mischief and welcome. She's all quick elbows and quicker comebacks, the kind of bartender who remembers your name, your drink, and that one ridiculous story you told months ago. Her laugh is loud, her wink is devious, and she has a way of making first-timers feel like regulars by the second round. Behind the wooden bar she's choreography: expert pours, theatrical muddles, and a flourish that makes every order feel curated. Delaney's drinks are personality-packed, with her behind the bar, the place doesn't just serve drinks -- it gets its personality back. It's a place off 8th ave where fitness meets fun, and every corner feels like home--complete with friendly staff who know your name (or at least your size) and are always ready to offer a witty comeback or a perfect recommendation. Cheers!

The restaurant sits on the corner in a striking building, giving it lots of energy. Inside, there are TVs everywhere, making it easy to catch the game from almost any seat. As kickoff got closer, the place filled up with soccer fans, creating a fun match-day atmosphere. They also have outdoor seating with TVs, so you don't have to miss any of the action if you prefer eating outside. The best surprise? They have a dog menu! Before my humans even ordered, the staff brought me a fresh bowl of water. I ordered the Salmon & Rice Bowl, and I cleaned my plate without leaving a single grain of rice behind. The humans shared a pitcher of sangria while cheering on the match. Mom ordered Judy's Corn appetizer, which was full of flavor and disappeared quickly, while Dad went with the classic chicken tenders and fries. Between the friendly staff, the lively sports atmosphere, and how welcome they made me feel, Judy Z's is an easy recommendation whether you're stopping by for brunch, happy hour, or to catch a big game. Dogba's Verdict If your humans love sports bars but hate leaving you at home, Judy Z's solves that problem. I got my own salmon dinner, fresh water before I could even ask, and a front-row seat for the World Cup. That's a winning game plan in my book. 4 paws up!

    I had a disturbing experience at Judith Z tonight…read more Within five minutes of arriving, I realized my bag was missing. I was born and raised in NYC and have been going out here since I was a teenager, so I'm very familiar with crowded spaces and know to keep track of my belongings. I have never experienced anything like this, particularly in the way it was handled. I have also never written a negative review of a business before, which should say something about how upsetting this experience was. My AirPods were inside the bag, so I was able to track its location. I immediately informed the staff and asked for help, but was told they "couldn't look because they were too busy." I understand that sports bars get busy, but I was reporting that my personal belongings had disappeared and that I had information that could potentially help locate them. I expected at minimum some basic assistance or concern. My wallet was also inside the bag, meaning I needed it to pay for the drinks I had ordered. More importantly, I was understandably focused on recovering my belongings. Instead of helping me investigate what had happened, the staff repeatedly made me feel as though I was creating an inconvenience for them. As the interaction continued, their behavior became increasingly uncomfortable to me. The staff seemed evasive and defensive, and I did not feel that anyone was making a genuine effort to help. I cannot say what was happening behind the scenes, but the overall response felt extremely strange. I had to continue asking questions, pressing for answers, and advocating for myself before I eventually got my bag back. Meanwhile, several other patrons who had absolutely no responsibility to help me and were simply trying to enjoy their own evening were kind enough to assist. Their concern and willingness to help stood in stark contrast to the response from the people actually working there. I understand that things can happen in crowded venues, and I was not expecting special treatment. What I did expect was a reasonable response when a customer reported that her bag, wallet, and personal belongings had disappeared within minutes of arriving, especially when she could provide location information that might help recover them. I ultimately recovered my bag, but only after continuing to push the issue. The staff's dismissive, evasive, and profoundly unhelpful response made an already stressful situation far more disturbing than it needed to be. Frankly, this is not even the entire story. There were additional aspects of the interaction that made the situation considerably worse, but I have already spent more than enough time dealing with this establishment. I would not return to Judith Z. If you do go, keep a very close eye on your belongings and based on my experience, do not assume the staff will be particularly interested in helping if something goes wrong.
