Clara EloyJanuary 2, 2022Got the garlic honey ones. Waffles were great, chicken was verrrryyy garlicky. This was all a little too much for me in taste and size
Christian DickmannJune 20, 2016I actually prefer the vegetarian chicken! Add the hot sauce. Try the chicken and waffles sandwich if you are bored of the regular one.
TiahJuly 25, 2017Had the chicken and waffles with the cranberry lemonade. Was really good! Dope spot!
The best fried chicken I have ever had and the same goes for the waffles - the sweet waffles are great too!
Ahmed BMarch 13, 2016Chilled during the day, good fun and good music at night esp. on weekends. Classic chicken and waffle is ace.
Marlon BJune 28, 2015Chicken and waffles are amazing. Get there early because the wait time, but with food that good you can see why. 😋
Jacob ForsterJuly 26, 2015The Eggs Benedict is absolutely fantastic and the portions here are great! One of the best brunch spots in Lower East Side!
Samantha 💃 LopezFebruary 20, 2017The buttermilk chicken sandwich was light crispy and delicious, def worth the hype.
Kimmie OhhMay 10, 2020You obviously come for the chicken & waffle sandwich! To try something different, get the smoked white chicken chili.
The Eggs Benny are definitely one of my favorite brunch dishes in the city.
Robb LJune 24, 2018Service & drinks are great - but the new chef needs some time to get things right. They clearly made a batch of chicken and waffles ahead of time - and it sat under a heat lamp. So disappointed.
Kyle FowlerSeptember 24, 2016The original waffles and fried chicken were awesome. Great music and a lively atmosphere.
Emily YuJanuary 15, 2015I got the special of the day: fried chicken with beer gravy and Rosemary mushroom waffles. I still dream about it.

Abdulelah Al-GosaibiAugust 25, 2017Buffalo chicken is like the best I've ever had!!! And the service is amazing 10/10
Angela N.March 31, 2015The Shrimp & Grits are devine. Make reservations in weekend or best to come early/late with parties less than 4.
Jessica ChuNovember 24, 2014The fried chicken sandwich is infinitely better than the fried chicken and waffles.
Jessica FerronAugust 4, 2018The chicken and waffles were to die for - the rosemary butter put it over the top!
Highly recommend the Vegetarian Mike's Hot Honey Chicken and Waffles. I'm very passionate about this dish. VERY.
Juliet GreenblattSeptember 22, 2014Chicken and waffles was great. Light and fluffy waffle, crispy chicken. Quick service as well.- The chicken & waffles beats chicken & waffles in South. Seriously. It's also open until 2AM 7 days a week?!
Julia LuJune 30, 2018They have really good tofu fried chicken and waffles! The Brussels sprouts are good too.

Lauren BastianNovember 22, 2015The chicken and waffles are some of the best. The hot honey is out of this world!
VictorDecember 14, 2015Chicken and waffles are rather expensive (19$) but huge portions! Share with a friend!
AUSTINSeptember 15, 2020All vegetarians beware, I ordered the fake chicken and waffles and they gave me the real version. I showed the guy and he convinced me it was fake and I took several bites and brought it back.
Marc CSeptember 9, 2015Friendly staff, great food, interesting cocktails. Always look to the special board!
