    Great restaurant for laid-back foodies. Small space, but great food/service, Kids eat for free on Sundays. You can reserve if it's 6 or more, then you get the nice big table at the front.

    Celebrate the holiday anytime with The Ace's Christmas Burger! This turkey patty is roasted instead of grilled, has a stuffing center, and is topped with a cranberry and bourbon compote. Read more

    Toast with duck confit, mushrooms, and poached eggs with side salad is excellent. It has oyster mushrooms; yum! French toast with poached pears+ricotta is best shared between three 🤪

    Great cocktail menu, awesome food, good service, cozy diner vibe. Small booths though and reservations only for parties of 5+. Get there early if you don't want to wait or end up sitting at the bar.

    Outstanding specials. I had the special, a North African dish with eggs on a beautifully balanced tomato sauce. Good coffee, better Caesars, great service, casual atmosphere.

    Great food, good servers and a fun ambiance. The fried chicken is great! However, they don't take reservations and there is often a line.

    Definitely get the Angus Burger with mac 'n' cheese. And pretty tasty manhattans here too.

    The Ace Manhattan is great. Nicely balanced menu. Or just order the special without even hearing it - you can't go wrong here.

    Try a Hands & Teeth cocktail! 1 oz tequila, 1 oz Jameson's, 1.5 oz ginger beer, a splash of bitters, and a lime wedge. Rock 'n' Roll never tasted so good!

    I've wanted to enjoy this place, i really really did. I've tried twice now. Great ambiance, friendly service yet it's let down by a poor menu and execution. The burgers are the worst offenders.

    Dinner was nice. Brunch is meh. I expected the cheddar biscuits & gravy to be full of flavor but it was the exact opposite. Really disappointed. We also had the Ace benny which was just ok.

    Cute place, although booths are tiny. Asked server for her opinion between 2 dishes, she said she wouldn't have either! Great start! Food was ok. Basically just another overpriced hipster joint.

    Worst service ever! The menu selection stinks! Don't order coffee because you'll never get a refill even when you ask for one! HORRIBLE!!
