Barrila TwinsSeptember 24, 2016We had the brunch a poco. They have brunch on Fridays. The lobster Mac & cheese was very good. It was also cheesy, which a lot of restaurants Mac & cheese dishes lack.
The Corcoran GroupJuly 9, 2013The bottomless brunch here is great, but what makes it even better is the Lobster Mac and Cheese or the Lobster Benedict. These are must-order dishes!
__TR3VApril 29, 2013Bottomless Brunch- 90min. Hip crowd, friendly staff (s/o to Ashley). Get the Lobster Mac n Cheese. I was skeptical at first, but now I'm a believer. White Sangria wasn't bad. Refills come very quick.
- DoubleDeuceAugust 5, 2018For the good of you and everyone in the neighborhood, please step over the person vomiting in the gutter and get in here and get the kind of unlimited brunch fun that he/she just found!
Larissa AlvarezApril 8, 2018Brunch is great. Especially for the price. Tight space but we liked everything we ate and the service was great.
The best boozy brunch in the East Village. It's $28, but the food is top-notch and the bottomless mimosas and sangria are great. Start with a lobster mac and cheese to share.
Katie TuohyJuly 9, 2019Best vegan Mac and cheese I’ve ever had! And the bottomless mimosas at lunch are STRONG.
Brittany HicksJuly 24, 2015BEST PLACE FOR A BDAY PARTY IN NYC! I threw a surprise party for my bf at Poco. The staff is awesome, they accommodated every need, and even let us play our own music for an epic dance party! SO FUN!
Byron FloresJuly 5, 2015The lobster Mac and cheese is awesome! $30 for bottomless mimosa, sangria, and a few other options plus an entree. The mimosas weren't strong but still worth the $30. Great atmosphere and music.
Aarthi D.October 19, 2014Florentine benedict was superb, the arepa a surprising standout. Mimosa was so-so and their coffee roast is fine. Good service and great for groups. Their bottomless deal isn't for the fainthearted!
Danielle ZeeMarch 4, 2013I'm not one to order Mac & Cheese off a menu but damn is their Lobster Mac & Cheese good. Crunchy top, HUGE lobster chunks, perfect cheese blend, and perfectly cooked shells. Decadent and worth it!
Michael G.December 27, 2018Great happy hour deal and free comedy show on Wednesday nights. The truffle mushroom mac and cheese is phenomenal.
Lella CirNovember 11, 2015Went with a big group for a during Saturday brunch-very crowded. I recommend "the hangover cure", French Toast, or pulled chicken sandwich. Mimosas we're too sweet, go for the sangria!
Carl WalserSeptember 25, 2018Brunch was fun. Drinks were great, Harry (our server) was fantastic, and food was ok. I’ll certainly be back soon.
Laura CochranMarch 15, 2014Joey is the best. If you can, request her. The lobster Benedict is orgasmic. Also, if with a group, they just give you a bottle of champagne. Or, if single, you can just get your own.
If coming for brunch, make reservations, then sit back, sip mimosas, catch up with friends. For dinner/tapas? Asparagus fries, poco sliders, the Carne Asada & sangria. Everything has a ton of flavor!
Bitches Who BrunchOctober 16, 2015The Bitches say: B+. Perfect for large groups. Come for the generous, bottomless pours from a friendly staff and filling food, but the dishes aren’t particularly unique. Read more
Leanne ZMay 2, 2016Came for bottomless brunch with a group, didn't expect the food to be awesome!! Pulled chicken sandwich was great! Red, white sangria, bloody, or mimosa are bottomless.- Michael G.January 23, 2019The basement is perfect for a private event. They offer affordable minimum bar tabs, and you can play your own music!
Liliana ChiaramonteFebruary 7, 2018French toast all the way, lobster Mac and cheese a go, and their bottomless of course.
Lady SmileJanuary 18, 2016Their drinks are great and really strong for a boozy brunch. I really enjoy their Benedict's. Haven't gotten around to trying more.
Akshay KumarFebruary 20, 2015Unlimited Bloody Mary's, Mimosa's or Sangria's and decent food for brunch. What more do you want? Reserve a table and enjoy your bloody brunch!
Erica DelaneySeptember 6, 2017Rowdy brunch, but it's great that they give you bottles of mimosas to maximize your bottomless time.
Allie CaldwellOctober 4, 2018Fantastic free comedy show in the basement on Wednesday nights + great happy hour specials
Amelia HellerJanuary 11, 2015Great service and amazing brunch. You will need a reservation for weekend brunch. The unlimited cocktails are delicious too.
AndyNovember 19, 2012Brunch very impressive, and affordable when you include the unlimited drinks all for ~$27. BEWARE that you cannot order a la carte cheaply, encouraging you to take the all you can drink option
Stephanie DeDeckerSeptember 17, 2016Great Bottomless Brunch, even during the weekdays. Ask about the Detox | Retox shirts
Uber NYCApril 5, 2013Try the Lobster Mac and Cheese, and stay for bottomless brunch. You won't regret it, or maybe you will tomorrow.
Lisa MarieApril 6, 2014Bottomless brunch baby ! Can't go wrong. Great decor, lovely staff, amazing food. A must try if you're in the area. 😊
Will IlarrazMay 10, 2014Came in with my friends right when it opened and no one around. They tell my group of 3 that we have to wait for a table bc of reservation.
Anastasia MorozApril 19, 2017Mussels in white sauce here are delicious. You must try it. Very big portion with french fries on side.
gabby bDecember 18, 2016ambiance is lovely (especially during the holidays), food was phenomenal and drinks were on point!
Ana Marie 💃February 17, 2015Fun boozy brunch in the LES, good music, food and prices. After 2pm a lot of fun 90s tunes
Bee WilliamsJanuary 19, 2016Awesome brunch special! And the food was really good. I liked the strawberry mimosa too. Super good!!
TerrellJanuary 7, 2014Deal: Entree plus 1.5-hour bottomless mimosas, bloody marys, or sangrias for $26.95. Yelp rating: 3.5/5 stars Bonus: They have LOBSTER MAC N’ CHEESE.
Men's Health MagSeptember 23, 2011Great Spanish cuisine in the LES. They also have a legendary bottomless brunch on the weekend. Get the lobster mac—because you’re classy like that.
If you're waiting for a brunch table, go across the street to Mama's bar, get a slamming bloody mary and play apples to apples with the bartender!
Akua AidooJanuary 15, 2015People rave about the drinks. I'm raving about that amazing chicken salad sandwich. Best I've ever had.
Jenn COctober 8, 2014The brunch here is amazing! Highly recommend the lobster Mac and cheese and the French toast!!
Ms HeleneJuly 7, 2017Thursday night $6 margaritas and selected tapas including bacon wrapped blue cheese stuffed dates. Skip mussels in bland cream sauce.
Gabi CarlosFebruary 6, 2017The French toast was delicious. My friends even claimed it was the best French toast they've had
StevenJune 17, 2012There's a limit on how long you can stay seated, so if you're coming for brunch - don't make a reservation earlier than noon... Otherwise your table time will run out before your bottomless brunch.
Vonetta SmithMay 18, 2012Best Lobster Mac and Cheese I have ever had! Then there's the all-you-can-drink mimosas, gotta love those! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Drot SkiApril 30, 2014Everything here is delicious & the polish bartender makes the BEST drinks!!! Always a good time when I come here!!!
PhilApril 18, 2017Brunch is the worst possible time to go: terrible loud groups of drunk girls, and you'll wait 30min to get your ok food. ...Outside of that, a fantastic place! Great happy hour food - get the sliders!
Brett ChungMay 5, 2012Lobster Mac is an obvious must try. Brussels Sprouts = awesome. Do it and make your mom happy for getting that necessary daily veggie serving.
Tavonna MillerDecember 6, 2013This bar romanced me off the street and took my breath away! Great service, great decor, great drinks!
