    Instead of the usual lox-and-bagel combo, Chef Craig Hopson creates a bagel-shaped pastry using an eclair-style batter. Stuffed inside is smoked salmon, dill cream cheese, and soft scrambled eggs. Read more

    Fantastic drinks and service, already one of the best restaurant bars in NYC. Try the Mai Tai w Bacardi 8, yuzu and almond, or the White Negroni with Bombay gin, Aperol and Martini Bianco

    Everything Bagel Éclair! Hopson creates a bagel-shaped pastry using an eggy, eclair-style batter. On top, a generous scattering of "everything," including sesame and poppy seeds, salt and onion.

    Good dinner, and brunch! Although it's definitely buzzing more at brunch, I prefer dinner. And the music playlist is so perfect. The Wild Stripes Bass was delicious.

    Incredible food. Ordered 6-7 appetizers, all were amazing, from the grilled octopus (a must), to the sweetbreads (outstanding) to shrimp and even olives. Hope it lasts.

    Brunch menu is great! Tried the short rib eggs Benedict and is was really good. Also had a side of the grits that had a great consistency and flavor.

    People may go here for brunch more than dinner but they do have full service dinner with great services. Menu is relatively standard but every dish has tiny twist that makes them unique

    The octopus was very tender, the striped bass is highly recommended. It has quick service, solid recommendations and fantastic drinks. Worth the price.

    If the Mac and cheese happens to be on the specials, do not hesitate! It was excellent at apiary and only got better since. Not the way your mom makes it.

    This place is AMAZING. $20 unlimited mimosas is totally worth it. The wait staff is super caring and great. I recommend the shrimp and grits!

    Fantastic cocktails. Try the blood and sand. All the food was delicious as well. Especially the baked chicken and iberico ham.

    The shrimp and grits were amazing! The bacon onion jam on top is to die for. Gets my southern stamp of approval.

    Another decent pace with a decent bar and small plates erasing the scum of the Bowery. Why is my conscience guilty?
