I wanted some truffle fries at a bar after a Friday night dinner. We found this bar with truffle fries and decided to visit. The bouncer was nice. The crowd is mostly college students, which is understandable since this is in the East Village. The vibe was chill, and the music was chill. I did not enjoy the truffle fries. We came for truffle fries, mostly as we could've gotten drinks at any bar. The truffle fries were probably frozen fries with some furikake thrown on top. Very disappointed with the truffle fries, but then again, it's a bar meant for alcoholic drinks rather than snackies. read more

This review is only for the happy hour. Honestly, one of the best happy hour deals in new york! I made a reservation for 5pm for 5 of us but we honestly didn't need a reservation, it wasn't that busy. The deals were amazing. We got a bottle of wine for $20 and cocktails were $9. All of the cocktails were delicious and the bar was a great vibe. We didn't get any food so can't speak on that. Service was attentive! Definitely will be coming back here for happy hour again. read more

Came here with a coworker on a rainy Thursday night just in time to catch happy hour. We ordered a dozen of the $1 Blue Point Oysters which were pretty standard. The bar was a lot more spacious than I expected, with a nice back section for a more intimate experience. read more

Came for happy hour to catch up with friends. Very spacious open area with ample seating. Ordered the frose which is rose, watermelon vodka, strawberry and lemon juice. Also, got the oysters since it was $1/piece because of happy hour. Drinks and oysters arrived quickly. Oysters were tasty and fresh. Frose was refreshing on a hot, humid day. Service is attentive and comes by often to check up. read more

My total bill came up to a little over $50 and I wasn't all that impressed. My waitress was amazing but the ambiance is VERY LOUD. We ended up eating at the front window because the inside was so loud. I am all for music but it gave a club feeling. Way too loud to eat and have a conversation with your dining partners. And given that they have a kid menu, they should know that it's way to loud for children. Speaking of kid menu, they have two items on the kids menu so I ended up having to order a burger without all of the fixing. It was supposed to be 2 patties (smash burger), I only saw one. I had the steak sandwich and why jaws were tired. I have gotten med well plenty of times and never has my jaws felt like I was struggling to chew. Kudos to them for having mock-tails. I didn't get but I appreciate them catering to those who don't drink alcohol. I was starving after fasting all day so my hunger was satiated but I won't be back. The meal wasn't worth the cost. read more

Pros: Great happy hour until 7PM - the $9 margaritas were so good and simple: tequila, lime, agave, salt rim. Cute outdoor patio vibe, but indoor as well. I didnt have the oysters but they looked SO good and a great deal during happy hour. The mozzarella sticks come with enough to share with 3+ people and they're THICK Cons: Limited menu, not too many choices of vegetarians. I got the Buddha bowl, which was under "mains" but should be under salads as it's basically a salad dish of arugula base, cold veggies, and a sprinkle of quinoa. I was expecting a warm and hearty bowl like some other buddha bowls I have had and will get the vegan burger or mac and cheese next time. read more

Vibes are fun and good for a night out. We saw a lot of parties here. Unfortunately the food was not great. The burger was cooked well down (they didn't ask how we wanted it cooked), and the fish in the fish and chips dish tasted unseasoned. The drinks were diluted enough that my partner and I couldn't tell which was the cocktail vs. cocktail until we asked our server at the end of the meal. I had been drinking the wrong drink the whole time (not a big deal), but kinda funny how I drank the mocktail my partner ordered, while my partner drank the cocktail even though he was intending not to drink that night. read more

My friends and I ate outside on a Friday night. Inside is quite big but on a beautiful day I wanted to sit outside. Either we were really hungry or the food was just really good but our burgers and chicken sandwiches really hit the spot. I got the fried chicken sandwich with truffle fries (extra $2). It was really good and you can taste the truffle for sure. read more

In the market like that of New York's, with plenty of bars, it can often be difficult to stand out. However, as far a little rebel does so with it's eclectic decor, zoo-istic wallpapers (spot the lemurs in the bathroom) and expansive layout. read more

Nice design. They have some of hollywoods most iconic "rebel" mugshots on the wall. Great pour of Guinness and a mean Old fashioned. My bartender was awesome. She noticed when I was running out of beer and poured me another. I didn't even have to asked. Even when it got busy, she makes everyone feel like her only customer. read more

Pretty fun bar. You can rent out the upstairs and it's a good vibe. The drinks are definitely on the sweeter side.

Took my partner out for Father's Day brunch. The upstairs was completely empty and we sat on the upstairs outside balcony, which was nice. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. We enjoyed their 2 for 1 drink menu. We also ordered froses, which were not included in the 2 for 1. We ordered the burger, chicken and waffles, and the pancakes. Only thing we disliked was that the chicken and waffles had too much cheese for our liking. Besides that everything was delicious. My partner also ordered half dozen of oysters, which he enjoyed as an app. We will most likely go back again for brunch. read more

Came here for brunch-I think a good alternative for those that don't necessarily want "bottomless" options but still plan to drink as they have a 2 for 1 cocktail option. The food was fine, service was great and very attentive for us. I do wish it was more clear what the 2 for 1 was as you can't mix and match and they actually only had a limited selection I think. I opted for the margarita and it was probably one of the worst cocktails I've had in a while, very sour, maybe the mix but could barely finish one, no less the second one. Maybe try other cocktail options. read more

What an adorable, brunch spot! There was neon signs all over the wall that create a perfect photo app, and upstairs is a gorgeous space with chandeliers, and a balcony!

I didn't learn about Little Rebel until I was invited for a reunion event. The location itself is quite big with a large second floor with a separate bar that comfortably accomodate our party of 30-40 people (definitely had room for more). They have a good range of wine, beers, and cocktails. The Charlie's Ange lwas on the sweeter side so it might not be for everyone, but I enjoyed the strong gin and lavender taste with a subtle citrus flavor. For apps/food, I really liked the steak sandwich cause the meat was actually really tender and well-seasoned. It was paired with an appropriate amount of caramelized onions, cheese, arugula, and sauce. Wish the smoked short rib was more prominent in their short rib croquettes, but it was fried nicely on the outside. The kale caesar salad was solid with fresh veggies. While I would I have preferred more dressing, I think others found the ratio appropriate. The restaurant itself not only had outdoor seating but also plenty of seating on both floors. It gave me pub vibes since I went in the afternoon/evening but I liked the occasional pink neon signs and gold accents. The staff member at the door was super friendly. Didn't catch her name but I just loved her vibes! Bartenders were bartenders but other staff were polite. As I'm seeing all the other reviews about their brunch menu, I look forward to coming back to check our other dishes and drinks! read more

Came here for brunch and everyone seemed to enjoy their meal! I had the breakfast bowl which I enjoyed but I wasn't the biggest fan of the normal fries. Everything that was supposed to be "crispy" (the fries and brussel sprouts) were still kinda soft. The drinks deals aren't bad either - $23 carafes for 4 people and 2 for 1 espresso martinis and margaritas. Their margaritas were good and strong! there wasn't really anyone else in the restaurant which seemed odd and service was okay but good price overall! read more

Vibe of the place is fun, I have been upstairs for a birthday party at night and it's a great space for gathering. Brunch on the other hand was nothing special, they had a decent brunch deal ($22 carafes) but the waitress said it would serve 4 drinks and it really only served 2.5 drinks. The food was pretty disappointing, the soufflé pancakes were just regular pancakes but very small, we joked that they were closer to silver dollars than soufflés. The chicken and waffle sandwich was dry. The one saving grace of the meal were the fries, so crispy and delicious! Overall would definitely come back for a night out, but would skip the brunch food here. read more

My girlfriend recommended this restaurant, and I'm so happy she did. The aesthetics is so unique and cute, it's exactly what the name represents. The music was perfect, it did get a little loud as the night progressed. Our waitress Rose was the best!! They accommodated 11 of us and we ordered plenty of food and drinks. Keep in mind, they offer a smaller food menu, so it made it easier for all of us to taste different items. Margaritas - strong and addicting Mocktail - soooo delicious, one of the best I've tasted. Wings - the Buffalo was the best tasting, the everything bagel was too salty, and the maple; a little too sweet, however delicious. Mac & Cheese - the regular, jalapeño, and lobster Mac & Cheese were VERY addicting and delicious, a must order! Truffle fries - very good Salads - very good Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls - dry, however, tasteful and spicy with the sauce. Popcorn shrimp - delicious This is a perfect place for a girls or date night. read more

This bar has integrity! I'll be that's not what one thinks when wanting to go to a bar but I'll tell you why I'll definitely be back. First of all, the bartender was quick to notice my group as we walked in for happy hour. Their menus are concise but really put the happy into happy hour with prices that are legitimately great (does it behoove me to tip more? Absolutely). When you accidentally leave your card at the bar, the bartender went out of her way to walk it back to me. I make the mistake often (forgetting my card) and some bars will keep it all night and charge $20 for it back the next day. This bar could have done that, but instead they did the right thing and returned it to me soon after I walked off. Their drinks are balanced and fairly strong (at least for a lightweight like me). If you're looking for mind-blowing sweetness you'd get that elsewhere, but here they make drinks where you can taste the flavors that describe the drink without punching your mouth palette in the groin. The decoration is also interesting with mugshots galore of celebrities - it helps break the ice a little more when a networking conversation takes a pause. Definitely puts the rebel in little rebel which is more than I can say about a lot of restaurants that have a name but don't live up to it. Would I come back? Absolutely. read more

The food was really yummy. The restaurant gad friendly staff. Amazing music and vibe!

Fun gastro pub located in the East Village with 80s/90s themed movies and music playing. This spot is great for brunch with friends or a causal date night spot, if you're feeling nostalgic. The ambiance includes Victorian-style chandeliers and celebrity mugshots all around! Chicken and waffles with chorizo gravy are great brunch dishes. The espresso martini with Mr. Black is one of the best & don't miss out on the Captain Crunch-flavored deep-fried ice cream. read more

This is an awesome spot for food and drinks. The service is good and they have a lot of tvs if you want to watch sports. The service is also great. We got the Caesar salad, sliders and tacos (gluten free) and they were all good. Their fries are also so good. read more

They have quite cute balcony on the second floor that feels European. Nice additional to EV. Cocktails - Rebel's Margarita + James Dean : both are premade. Very spirited-forward. Rebel Burger - above average that can cure one's burger craving. FRIES was crispy brown to the level that we LOVE it! Fried Short Rib Croquette - so so, not much meat. HOWEVER, Uhm so the same thing happened to other Yelper happened to me, that the waitress charged us something we didn't order and the receipt came un-itemized. I recalled seeing the review so I asked her to email us the itemized receipt after we paid since the bill was higher than expected. And yes we were also charged for additional drink that we didn't have. Hope they know in order to run the business longer, honesty is more important. read more

Was invited by a friend for a goodbye get-together. We didn't get a table, just a high top where we could mingle and order drinks or food at the bar. We ordered a bunch of food but since it was so dark I only got a pic of the chicken sandwich. Brussel sprouts- yummy, not sure what sauce was on it but I liked it. Mac & cheese - There are 3 different options and we got the truffle and mushroom, I did not taste truffle in it but it was still very delicious and cheesy. French fries - We ordered the truffle fries, again did not taste like truffle. And had a weird brown powder on it which I assume was truffle but didn't taste like it. Queso - I was hesitant about ordering this, why the corn and the kimchi in it? Was it gross, no. but was it delicious? Also no. Could skip it Popcorn shrimp - I wish the pieces were bigger because these were good and spicy. Chicken sandwich- This looked like the most popular ordered item on the menu so we definitely have to get it, it was perfectly cooked and very crispy, it came with 2 big pieces of chicken breast on the sandwich, we split it open face and shared it between 3 people. But my biggest complaint with it was that the chicken had zero seasoning, not even salt! So sad. Ranch - As a Southerner living in the East Coast for the last 14 years, I still am very partial to dipping my fries into ranch so I ordered a side of it. Holy smokes, this was the disturbing ranch I have ever had in my life lol, I am not even sure what's going on. Everyone in my group tasted it and we came to the consensus that it was made with keifer maybe because it left a fizzy feeling on your tongue. WEIRD! One thing I will say is that everything came out piping hot, something I absolutely appreciate. read more

This space is more of a gastropub. Unfortunately, I was hoping to sit upstairs where apparently the dining space is nicer. The service was good but the downstairs was a bit noisy for a dinner. The food was ok. The Everything pot pie was bland and didn't feel much like a pot pie. The queso fundido was decent and the kimchi was a nice touch. The cauliflower was underseasoned as were the vegetable skewers. It was overpriced for the quality of the food. read more

We went here for dinner and drinks before a concert at Webster Hall with four of my friends. It was easy to get a reservation, and the ambience inside was really cute. The drinks were good - my one friend got an espresso martini and we also got some wine. The food was OK. We got the french fries, the shishito peppers, the short rib croquettes, the queso, & the charcuterie board. The queso and the peppers were my favorite. The charcuterie board was very basic cheeses and meats. The short rib croquettes were OK. read more

Super fun vibe here and great food, but service / atmosphere is still a work in progress. We had an 8PM Saturday res and were immediately excited by the vibe and decor, but were just as quickly turned off by the inability to hear each other over a large party that had booked out the bar area of the second floor. Throughout the night the bartenders also shouted even more loudly, over the roar of the party, to get the attention of the party goers. We had to stop talking every time this happened (at least 5 times) because it was impossible to hear each other at all when this would occur. We ordered the Kimchi Queso, which was delicious but were very disappointed that it didn't arrive until our entrees did, 30 minutes after ordering. The chicken sandwich was delicious but the bun was a little small and soft, which led to it feeling soggy towards the end. The salad that it came with was actually great - it was just lettuce but the dressing was delicious. All seats are bar stools without backs, which led to us using the 4th stool at our table for our coats since we were only 3 people. However, midway through another waiter took away our extra stool because he apparently needed it for another table. We were annoyed by this considering the only other place to put our large winter coats was an open coat rack next to the bathroom, which felt far too exposed for our liking. Had we put our coats there and had they been stolen, I doubt the restaurant would do anything about it. This was also especially frustrating as there was plenty of wall space and space under our tables where the restaurant could easily install plenty of hooks. Since we were at a table that's normally used for parties of four, we were also perplexed by their needing the stool for another table. Do they not have enough stools for the number of tables? Overall, we liked the restaurant, but the several little turn offs were enough to leave us feeling disappointed in the end. read more

Ok so I've been there twice and both occasions were for a work happy hour. Let me just preface this by saying I'm a teacher. We get very few perks in our job so when we get a happy hour, we get very excited. The first time we went was in the spring. There were several people who work there were outright hostile to us for asking for drinks telling us we had to be on a certain side of the bar yelling at us for not going into a certain spaces. We're lower schools faculty we don't need people yelling at us for no reason. Then today, they were complaining so loud about how annoying it is that we're ordering drinks...hello it was a happy hour! It's it's not our fault that they're understaffed or are asking for drinks. No one ever told us we couldn't order drinks so finally they told us we could only order certain drinks. Then I spoke to one of the bartenders and said "hey I really appreciate everything you've done for us work teachers we really appreciate the help. We don't get a lot of perks in our job." The bartender looked at me and said "I've disassociated from all of this, but we like Tips." I had to walk away because he was being such a jerk, but then I came back in a couple minutes and said hey you guys have been really rude to us. All we wanted was to have some drinks in the last day of school, he looked at me and said can I buy you a shot. I said no and walked away. Do better. You're a second rate bar at best. We were just there to enjoy ourselves and you were really rude to us, enjoy that. read more
