    The Fedora Burger hit me in the face like a truck. The smoked cheddar and house-pickled cucumbers were wonderful, and the crispy potatoes gave it a delightful crunch. Read more

    Best Bloody Mary's! That's a bold statement and I feel good about it. You have to try the Bloody Ramen and Green Bloody. The Bloody Ramen is delish. Bloody's come with a complementary small beer.

    Favorite place in w village. Get same thing every time - oysters (very fresh), Fedora burger (up there for best in w vil) & sunchokes. Cocktails rotate and are always good - incl the G&T pictured

    Easily my favorite place for a casual yet quality cocktail and some late night bites. Packed with people meeting up for drinks. Saw Vera Wang last time. Bring a date or a good friend. Get fries.

    The burger is delicious, with a great crunch. It’s not in my top 5, but this super quaint spot is lovely on a sunny day with the windows open and a cold drink.

    Grab a window seat at this cozy West Village cocktail den, and spend the day people watching and drinking. Try the Bloody Ramen, made with vodka, beef ramen broth, shishito and togarashi spice.

    Fun spot to stop for a cocktail and snacks. The chicken rillette, tartare and oysters are terrific. Feel free to skip the grilled cheese -- it's a bit greasy and, somehow, too cheesy.

    What a lovely place for a summer afternoon. Feel the breeze and Sun in the outdoor indoor space. Go for the burger and the fries! You won't be disappointed.

    Pray that Danielle is working the bar when you come here — she makes amazing drinks and even better banter. The fancy burger and fries is also quite an experience.

    The Fedora burger is a pretty good deal, but also ask for the foie gras grilled cheese. It's not on the menu anymore, but help encourage them to bring it back!

    Great spot for cocktails, and one of the better spots in the City for a Bloody Mary. They even make a Green (Bay) one out of tomatillo!

    Menu pricing was assigned by a drunk toddler (makes no sense), but don't leave without the burger (😋) and if they start filling cocktails to the brim vs halfway, get the parrothead.

    The burger is a MUST. Also highly recommend their seasonal burrata dish with fig and almond butter - a west village take on the pb&j.

    Good burger but unaccommodating. Came as a party of 3. Such a hassle to order a burger, split up our part of three so one person could sit at the bar.

    The Fedora Burger is the move. The pickled cucumbers is what makes it standout. Highly recommend.

    Yea the deviled eggs are good and offer a fresh take. Yes the burger is solid. It does not, however live up to the hype. Btw the carrots are served cold

    Everyone (justly) loves the Fedora burger (find the Village Voice review), but the vegetable dishes here are simply wonderful, all served with squirts of complementary sauces.

    The crown jewel "a la carte" is the “Fedora” burger, a mouth-watering beef and buns concoction with smoked cheddar, crispy onions, pickled cucumber and BBQ mayo. Read more

    Loved it! found it few minuets before midnight and my birthday! A friend ordered something and all of the sudden the waiter rang a cow bell and got us a plate with 4 shots and a candle! Great memory!

    Great spot for solid cocktails & wine with food at the bar. Tiny place, best sea is overlooking the street.

    Their fedora burger definitely holds its own in the pantheon of delicious NYC burgers. Also they play Yeezus and Kendrick Lamar.

    Pricey, but worth it. The fedora burger rocks, as does the burrata appetizer. Cocktails are inventive and delicious.

    If you can snag a seat at the window, you're in for some great people watching and good Bloody Mary's.

    Burger was okay, toppings were good but meat served too rare and nothing really stood out as amazing. It's not bad, but one can do better in the west village if you're on the burger hunt.

    Juan is the best. Get the deviled eggs, octopus thangs and the burger. You're welcome.

    The BBQ bloody is the best and the burger is just half a step below Minetta Tavern for half the price! But the drinks are expensive.

    Fedora Burger, $13 In a nod, perhaps, to the Cuban-style burger variant called the frita, a cache of extra-crispy potato sticks adds textural complexity and audible crunch.

    The crab stuffed oysters are unreal, and the burger is my new fave in NYC.

    Sandwich your burger between the cod fritters and the very crisp, nicely salted herb fries
