Sabrina TeplinMay 30, 20141st month in operation. Nice vibe. Great atmosphere. Good menu. Very good service. Should go very well this summer. Glad I had the opportunity before everyone finds out about it.
Nate PinkstonJune 7, 2016Food was much better than I expected. Everything was really good. Mostly light and nice for the hot weather outside. The ribs were probably the highlight. Delicious. And best outdoor seating around.
Norman EllisJuly 11, 2014Great lunch spot. Decor gives a Mediterranean feel. Drinks are costly but the food prices are actually very reasonable. Have the 75 Pavilion Cocktail and save room for one of their sublime desserts.
Ok it's their first season and there can be growing pains. But the food and the space are amazing. So much potential and so fun. Love the cocktail reference to the 6 train.
laura horakSeptember 2, 2014great outdoor space! the hanger steak, cauliflower purée & shoestring fries are beyond delish. the reduction is spot on. the kale salad & carpaccio are good but nothing to write home about.
Caroline SchulweisSeptember 26, 2014Loved the "Pink Me Up" cocktail (refreshing and easy to drink). The tuna crudo was good too.
Daniel MarrAugust 22, 2015Bartender with the fedora makes great specialty cocktails off the menu. Do that instead of from the drink list
Ajay KulkarniMay 3, 2014The Number 6 for a hot summer day, the Park Side for something deliciously different (Guava. Foam.)
Marcie QuintanaJune 24, 2015The Pavilion was just ok, was expecting my tastebuds to dance more. I had the sea scallops with risotto. I enjoyed the appetizers and cocktails more. Beautiful setting and good service though.
Tom DiMaggioSeptember 28, 2016Perfect spot in the middle of Union Square, nicely lit up at night. Drink prices are high, as you would expect.
Vonatron LMay 13, 2015Great al fresco dining and people watching if the weather is nice! Service was poor - staff was nice but constantly forgot stuff. Food was plated nicely but pricy. Lasagna was meaty but very salty.
Melody GambinoOctober 17, 2014Beautiful outdoor space that makes you forget you are in the city, and they buy their ingredients fresh from the farmers market
CCnycJuly 23, 2017Good place to enjoy a drink outside, with or without a roof. Solid wine list and good calamari.
Trae FSeptember 20, 2015It's fun to have a drink here in the summer. Can get awfully crowded so be prepared.
The New YorkerAugust 18, 2014“Across the menu, the food, though not particularly adventurous, is much better and fresher than you might expect from a restaurant in one of Manhattan’s most trafficked hubs.” Read more
Jorge ArangoMay 23, 2014amazing hidden gem in union square! I highly recommend the mussels and fries!
JenniferJune 8, 2014I highly suggest the Rialto cocktail. It's a perfect reminder of the islands, without the sand.
Sissi ChenMay 18, 2014Had brunch here. We had no reservation but only waited for like 10 minutes. Surprisingly reasonably priced. Food was delicious.
Josh BerkowitzDecember 23, 2014I'm always on the lookout for outdoor seating, so this place was on my list for a bit. I wasn't blown away, though. The food was good, the service was alright. Nothing special except the location.
Paul KardousMay 16, 2017While the setting is nice, the food, cocktails, and service are all very sub par. Better off getting take out and sitting in the park than eating here.
emily chenMay 22, 2014it's a beautiful space and i wanted to love it since it's in my hood but the bartender was so incredibly rude, it left a bad taste in my mouth. #mademefeellikeanugly
David ThomasOctober 24, 2014My favorite summer brunch spot... you feel like you are on top of the world
Brian RaffertyAugust 30, 2014Cocktails are well prepared, the food straightforward and high quality.
Sofia PapastamelosJune 21, 2015Beautiful outdoor seating and solid menu. Service could be better. Seemed a little touristy.
Robyn LahleinJune 3, 2014Great spot, but unfortunately bad service. Great opportunity and chalking it up to getting its sea legs.
Kay 5August 23, 2015Worst steak you can ever have الله يكرم النعمة. I wish its possible to stay for a drink rather than meal to enjoy the place
Very mediocre food and service, yet I keep coming back because the location can't be beat when at the Greenmarket.
Ellen FryeMay 3, 2015Waited over an hour for food that never came. Our waiter told us that there had been a mix up in the kitchen but they were fixing it. Over 20 minutes later the manager came by and no food.
This place reminds me of being in New Orleans. Great atmosphere!

"Loved the venue and the service and will definitely come back, but don't expect the same burger you would find Chicago. It's a different burger, different sauce, different meat, different bun"
