Where do I start? The restaurant is a hidden gem with a beautiful atmosphere. Warm and cozy yet classy. As soon as I came in, I met Victor at the bar who is phenomenal. His drinks are a delicacy, I had a melon margarita that was so good and definitely has me coming back for more.
Beautiful brunch (or dinner) spot in Greenwich Village.
The vibe is rustic and cozy, made the entire meal that much more enjoyable.
The drinks and food were delicious. We ordered the olive oil pancakes, chicken and waffle sandwich, and the burger, all fresh and delicious! The pancakes were especially satisfying.
Pricing is also not bad for Manhattan.
Definitely recommend for a nice brunch or dinner.

Great place to get a drink as well the bartender, Victor, was fabulous! He made sure I was comfortable. I didn't know what to drink. He made some great recommendations, as well as created cocktail base on what I liked. This place is great for taking yourself on a solo date. Nice calm and quiet. Great if you want to get away from the city.
Bought a pulsd for a Gemini Astrology dinner, and it was a great experience. I enjoyed all of the played presented by the chef. The jazz band was awesome, and the tarot reader was on point. Lovely event
The atmosphere was great. The interior was awesome and good vibes going on. The food didn't meet my expectation, but personal opinion. Other than that, it was ok.
Society cafe has a nice, classy interior and ample dining room. It feels elegant and cozy.
My camomile tea was really good (although the cup seemed a bit dirty on the inside).
My market omelet was tasty and generously filled, although personally I prefer it leaky. My partner’s avocado toast was also good. Neither of us enjoyed the chicken sausage - there was just not the taste of chicken and sadly left them there. On another note, we really enjoyed the roasted potatoes!
Still, we liked the friendly staff!

Cute place with awesome food! We got the octopus and oysters as the starters. The octopus was crispy outside but juicy inside. The mini potatoes and olives that came with it added a variety of flavors. The oysters were buttery and creamy. We got the bass for the entree and it’s super super crispy and tender. The dessert was a little bit too sweet and I was expecting something with more flavors. Overall it was a very pleasant dining experience!
Come for the popovers (I ate three!) and the somewhat unique vibe for a NYC restaurant. Stay because…your server keeps forgetting to bring the check.
I’m being a bit unfair. The service was generally good.
As for the food, the sticky rice we really enjoyed. It’s basically squares of rice with great sauce. The steak hit the mark. The pasta ragu disappointed.
