Despite being right next to the 61st St stop, The Dugout is one of the lesser frequented Irish pubs…read morein Woodside. It reminds me a time in the neighborhood when Irish folks were the majority and when times were so much more simple. This pub is low key, rarely crowded, somewhat easy to miss, and extremely local. The place reminds me a ton of the Courtyard Ale House in Sunnyside, from the exterior to the darkly lit interior with an intimate bar setup. They too had an outdoor setup during the pandemic. The bartenders are friendly enough and the clientele is a lot of older folks that drink alone. There are some TVs, which are as small as the pub itself. The drink selection is pretty basic with some bottled beer and some limited taps. Whether it's a glass of Stella or a pint of Guinness, it's what most of the place is often drinking. There are some TVs playing sports and no food that I'm aware of. The plus side is that the drinks are going to be affordable and there is vibe is the least pretentious in the area. If one is looking for a simple ambiance with a little sports and a lot of local vibes, The Dugout completely fits the bill. Indulge in the personalities and have a pint while playing something from their jukebox. If one is lucky, it might just be on a night where there's a little live music.

Got there when it opened and it was quiet, sat at the bar and had a couple of half pours of beer.

Great beer, great people, and we were accidentally there for the end of trivia night and that looked way fun.

Came here for a little small belated birthday dinner for a friend and we had a very nice time. We each just had a dish since we knew the portions are BIG. The menu is extensive and there was a lot to choose from. They even offer some Mexican and Italian dish options. I had the Grilled Skirt Steak (Monterey), which was SO BIG I had leftover for lunch the next day. :) the meat was pretty tender and juicy. The dish came with tostones (big) and rice. We were also served salads to start. What stands out a lot is the amazing service here. They are so polite, friendly, patient and helpful. The restaurant definitely seemed staffed properly which I suppose was a good thing because as the night progressed, the place filled up (for a Thursday night). My friends had the salmon and the Chicken Franchise. I took off just one star because they ended up charging my friends twice (but rectified the mistake), hopefully her funds will sort out. They also charge extra if you want to make any side substitutions... which isn't kind of crappy. The place is also beautifully decorated and spacious. Will def be back very soon! Next time we'll partake in an adult beverage maybe :)

My husband and I have had drinks at Barriles in the past but had never tried the food there until a…read morefew nights ago. I've experienced and enjoyed Colombian cuisine before, but unfortunately, I was not a big fan of the food at Barriles. We were with my brother, and the three of us shared the Ceviche Mixto, the Picada La Jefa, and Parrillada Barriles. The Picado La Jefa was the best in terms of flavor, due primarily to the sauce and guacamole. The Parrillada Barriles was surprisingly disappointing, despite the "wow" factor of the portion size. Everything on the platter was so overcooked and dry, and everything also lacked seasoning. It was almost inedible, but we took the leftovers home in the hopes of being able to repurpose them somehow since the dish cost $50. The ceviche was prepared in a traditional red sauce, which I had never had before. The texture of the seafood was decent, but I didn't care for the sauce. It tasted oddly sweet to me. Overall, I would not eat here again but would return for drinks.

I think they leave the seasoning for you to do so you should add salt and pepper before you bite into the sandwich. The side salad was okay. It didn't need the chopped scallions. I appreciated that the salad was lightly dressed. The winner was the green gimlet. I really enjoyed it. Fresh and slightly sweet. The staff were polite and friendly. Bathroom was clean.
