Profile

Columns painted red, white, and blue and a humongous American flag are the signatures of this super-pub. And that American spirit of excess is apparent, too, in a wraparound bar—long enough for an F-47 take off—and hulking amber lighting fixtures giving the cavernous brick-walled space the feel of a train station. (Frustratingly, the place has waiting-room acoustics as well, making it necessary to shout, Paul Revere–style, whether you’re sitting at an ample U-booth or in the upstairs mezzanine.) The menu is equally patriotic with standards like BBQ ribs and cheeseburgers. If the gigantic bar disappointingly gets no more exotic than Smirnoff Source and Napa Valley wines, hey, you can love it or leave it!

Terrible and dishonest service

1st and last time I will ever set foot in this bar full of conniving and deceitful dirtbags. Arranged for 3 hours open bar and the bartender was intentionally slow to serve drinks, no shots, drinks watered down, 1 drink at a time. Top it all off, they all of a sudden decided the open bar was over an hour and a half early. The people throwing the birthday both got thrown out along with others who got ripped off. Some woman manager with a stupid looking hat was the worst of all - when referred to her to discuss the cutoff, she began claiming that people had hit her (which was nowhere near true). Worst bar in NYC if you are planning a party GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Top it all off with a shitty crowd of goombas and blowouts.
