Derek Brewster: you have to order the chicken liver pate... and save room for the salted caramel pot creme! life-changing!
Jenny N: Cozy brunch/dinner spot with a lovely garden patio. Chicken liver pâté with caramelized onion jam is a perfect app!
Amanda Natividad: Chicken liver pâté. Chorizo & egg pizza. Burrata. Do it. Even if you don't like pâté, are indifferent to burrata and, for some incredibly weird reason, you don't like chorizo.

Lee Clancy: A worthy successor to Paul K: Tagliatelle with aged beef and kale is tremendous...trout and the chicken liver mouser were excellent also.
Susan Loh: If the 9:30pm reservation is the only availability, take it! Chicken liver mousse, crab tagliatelle, pork belly. And save room for cheese.
Sevinc Oz: Porcini doughnuts are really good, dont skip them! Sardine chips are also tasty but nothing special apart from the shape. Chicken liver mousse is a nice option as a light appetizer.

Sean Dowdall: Chicken liver mousse and Grenache are a match!
Ben 🐱 Willis: Upstairs has a cool seating area and fun games. Stout beer with truffles is a great combo. Not a huge selection on non-alcoholic drinks.
Eater: In a space that has been vacant for the past 40 years, Tender rises from the ashes. This new pleasing oasis features snacks and drinking. Pro-tip: once inside head to the cozy lounge upstairs. Read more.

Barbara Stephenson: 3 small share plates, 2 larges was perfect for 2. The beets should make anyone a true believer, chicken liver mousse divine, and the chicken basteeya was flaky, light, and spiced just right.
Mihika Verma: Loved everything we had here - chicken liver mousse and shrimp to start, followed by chicken basteeya, lamb shank and the couscous - a must have! The date cake is a great ending to the meal.
Will Kivinski: Try the spreads! My favorite was the yogurt dill (in the middle). Order an extra side of the flat bread when you're done with round 1 so it's still warm upon delivery.

Larry Conlin: Try the Chicken Liver Crostini
CITY GRIT: While pizzas are their main game, we swooned over the Salumi, Baked Polenta, Burrata Bruschetta, the Chicken Liver Crostini, and the entire cocktail menu.
Adam Friedman: Lasagne bolognese. Walnut truffle toast. Chicken liver crostini. Meatballs. Pizza. Top-notch Italian!

cyn k: chicken liver mousse. it's divine.
Brian: 7x7's Big Eat 2012 says the chicken liver on toast is delicious. Yum!
cyn k: if they have it, get the chicken liver mousse. it's better than foie gras. i'd pass on the bacon donuts, but love their soups and steak.
Troy Flint: The best pub food in town (actually far better than what that name suggests) and a great beer selection on tap. The chicken liver mousse is phenomenal and the cheeseburgers are excellent.
WhiskeyAvenger: Great beer selection which makes for a great alternative to Zeitgeist if you want a more chill bar experience.
Bommy: Never that crowded or loud, it's a great spot to bring out-of-towners who like craft beer. No large plate vegetarian dishes but the hand cut kennebec fries are amazing. Super thick wedge fries!

Cassandra Thomas: Chicken liver mousse, wide beer selection and pizza!
Ben Tepfer: Really good craft beer selection! Food is nothing amazing.
Kyle Meyer: Better places exist for actually watching a movie—the at your seat service ends up making it hard to stay focused on what you actually came for. Beautiful theater, food is eh, beer list is great.

Jacob Gyllenstierna: Start with the minestrone and the chicken liver spiedino. Proceed with the mushroom polenta and lumaconi. Finish with the cannoli and a house cappuccino. 👍🏻
Drewski: Cavatelli was some of the best pasta I've ever had with pancetta and a significant kick. The whole chicken was really tasty as well.
Esquire: Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Tosca’s is a monument to chrome and red leatherette and burnished wood. Good drinks, too.

Natalie K: If you can, sit at the bar & get wine tips from the bartender. He knows everything about every wine ever made. Also, pizza and chicken livers are amazing!!
Stewart Alsop: Try the Apricots & Cherries With Lardo - As well as hazelnuts & balsamico di Puglia. My companion said she almost had an orgasm.
BlackboardEats: The Funghi Pizza is all the rave at A16. Read more.
