    Farewell dinner, bittersweet. PJ is one of my favorites restaurant. The first warm day this year, the place was buzzing but the service excelled. Best ambiance to welcome Spring. Drinks: delicious. Food great: we had lobster rolls and burgers. As of me, I will return.

    Very popular restaurant in Brookfield place. Wanted to see what the hype was about because there was a waitlist. Ordered a burger and lobster roll. To be honest the food was pretty underwhelming. I felt like it's on par with a food truck. The lobster was pretty dry. The burger was alright but the presentation could have been better. The food arrived pretty quickly but it didn't seem like the servers really wanted to be there. One dropped a plate on the floor.. it was a very loud scene.. and just nonchalantly used her feet to kick it to the side while the other servers just watched. I guess dropping things is common here. Anyway, this is a very casual spot. So don't go here with anyone you want to impress :)

    CONNECTICUT STYLE LOBSTER ROLL
    Austin Z.

    Quite a tourist-y restaurant, but convenient for a business lunch in Brookfield Place. Nothing particularly memorable / special about the meal. Got the lobster roll (which was actually decently priced $35) and it got the job done. Service was a little slow but they were swamped. Ambiance and vibes were touristy/themed but you know what you're getting when you sign up to go here

    MAINE MAINE STYLE LOBSTER ROLL

    I came here because it was on a list of "fine dining restaurants " . Since it was a special day we made the trip. The waiter was nice and professional but this spot is not it . I ordered a lobster roll it was absolutely disgusting I sent it back . It wasn't seasoned it just wasn't good . We ordered chicken wings as well . They tasted horrible the temperature was warm to almost cool or cold they didn't taste fresh at allll. We ordered 2 drinks and left to a more upscale fine dining restaurant because this place wasn't it . I don't think I would visit this or any other of their locations ever again.

    Roast chicken Caesar salad
    Tom G.

    An upscale American bar that specializes in their seafood, but all their options are great. I highly recommend the poblano burger, extremely fresh and a little bit different than your standard bar fare. The roast turkey club might also be one of the best turkey clubs I've ever had! I've also tried the crispy cod sandwich which rather tasty, albeit a little messy, so prepare yourself with a napkin. Most recently I've had the roast chicken Caesar salad, and that might be my favorite thus far. Chicken was perfectly cooked and honestly has my mouth watering even now just thinking about it. The prices can be a little steep even for Manhattan but you definitely get your money's worth in quality. The outdoor bar during the warmer months is also a great time, but it can be a little burdensome to get the bartender's attention with the sheer volume of people that show up.

    I was in NYC for a weekend in September and a friend recommended this restaurant and it was one of my favorite restaurants from this trip! Having delicious oysters and wine while overlooking the river on a crisp fall day was a dream! 10/10 recommend.

    Crunchy Chicken Sandwich
    Pam M.

    I visited PJ Clarke's twice this week. Once for a quick late night meal after I checked into my hotel & again for a late lunch on Friday. I checked out the menu online before I visited & had my eye on the salmon tartare & lobster roll. The salmon tartare didn't come with anything to serve it on so I used the potato chips that accompanied my lobster roll as a vessel. I chose the Connecticut style lobster roll which had a pretty good amount of lobster but the roll was a bit stale. My cocktail, the ST. GERMAIN FIZZ which featured elderflower liqueur, fresh lime was light & refreshing. I returned for lunch with my colleague on Friday & we shared the ZUCCHINI & EGGPLANT CHIPS appetizer. He had the chicken sandwich & I had the lobster Cobb sandwich which was beautifully presented, light, delicious & had a nice amount of lobster. This restaurant is huge & has indoor dining, outdoor dining & bar seating. Service was friendly & helpful.

    NEW YORK CHEESECAKE
    Francisco R.

    This was an amazing place to eat and enjoy a break after a long day of exploring New York City. While dining under a view of the harbor and the statute of liberty, the ambience makes you feel like you're a part of the big city. The cherry on top of the cake: the food! Every piece of our meal was delicious! Finally, the staff were amazing. I made the reservation ahead of our trip and asked for a table with a view and the staff came through! Additionally the host staff and wait staff were kind, courteous, and treated us very well. Highly recommend!

    Cheesecake
    Josh P.

    So the calamari is good and nothing special like other fried calamari. I don't like the idea of all of the peppers In there. They are mushy, which then causes the calamari to be soggy and not crispy because of all the grease they hold, but I love the horseradish Tatar sauce. This dip is delicious. Now, the shepherd's pie is pretty good and has a great flavor. I would get this again. I also got the cheesecake, and I have to say it is pretty darn good. You can taste the cream cheese and all the flavors that make it a cheesecake. Overall, this was a great place to enjoy a nice dinner with a view of the Statue of Liberty. It would have been a five-star rating, but the calamari was what it did for me. But if you wanna drink at the bar with all the hustle and bustle, this is the place to be.

    Dips for two
    Neha M.

    Right next to the water and plenty of people watching. This place is your spot for the summer Fridays to enjoy delicious foods and drinks with friends or colleagues. We tried the dips for two. Loved each dip (and been trying to figure out what each dip was because the menu didn't say) For mains I had the chicken pallaird. So this was ok. Flavor was there but the chicken was dry and over cooked. They also have plenty of mocktail options so I had the one with passionfruit because I'm in love with passionfruit. Delicious and not too sweet. Service was great too!

    Stopped in for a few drinks after walking the plaza. It wasn't too busy for a Friday night and it's sort of hidden in the second floor so a bit hard to find. Bartenders were nice and the cheese cake was good! Great water hole spot after a long day of work.

It delivered on both fronts, but I really was blown away by the wine. The sheer quantity of available wines is really impressive, and the sommelier was able to recommend a rare wine that fit our interests (a fantastic, effervescent, creamy Txakoli that had lovely fruit and minerals). Later, I tried amazing ice cider. The food rundown: -Sesame pizza Bianca: complimentary bread! This was very good and quite sizable. The bottom is entirely encrusted with sesame. -Scallop crudo (rhubarb, shiso): very good and the plating was gorgeous. Meaty scallops with tangy and pungent flavors. -Snowdance chicken (spinach, sherry, thyme): Super tender, crispy-skinned chicken in a savory sherry sauce. -Sea bass (asparagus, hollandaise): I was surprised at how remarkably well this dish worked. The asparagus was so good with the rich, buttery sauce. Definitely a smaller portion, but the chicken was huge so it balanced out. -Potatoes with ramps: Yum. Served hashbrown-style and the ramps were added as little sauce dollops. I loved the space, and by that I mean the ambience and also the literal amount of space we had to ourselves. We got to stretch out in a roomy corner booth. The room featured a lot of exposed brick and grey and utilitarian ceilings, but it manages to be cozy all the same.

We came in on a Friday evening and it was pretty quiet inside. After we were sat down upstairs, it took a long time for our waitress to come to take our order. We got the Butterscotch flip, Getaway driver, and Big trouble. These drinks were not it. Although the prices are okay($19 each), they definitely need some improvement. All three had very strong flavors that were not balanced with the rest of the drink. After we finished our drinks, we waited an especially long time for the waitress to come back, check on us, and give us our bill. It was especially frustrating because we were the only ones in the bar at this point and we could hear them chatting downstairs. Overall, both service and the drinks need improvement. Can't really recommend Split Eights over other cocktail bars around.

My friend really enjoyed her drink as well. At $19 per cocktail, it's not the cheapest in the area, but also not the priciest either. Would absolutely recommend Split Eights to anyone looking for craft cocktails in the area.
