"Great cocktails, really friendly staff. Not so loud that you can’t have a conversation."

"I love this cozy spot, I had mocktails which were surprisingly tasty. The ambience was inviting and cost I would definitely return and try the food next time. I give it a 10/10. The staff was friendly too"

"This place is dope! We walked in not knowing what to expect. We’ve always walked by, but we said eff it. Let’s go in. Happy we did. Initially when you walk in, to the immediate left is a prep station of sorts for food I think. Behind that is the bar. It looks very speakeasy-esque. Beautiful velvet chairs. Beautiful decor. Chill music. Bartender was super nice. She was super busy but made sure to take care of us in an orderly fashion. Drinks were good, but not to my liking. I misordered, and got something with mezcal, which I’m not a huge fan of, but was able to water it down a tad and it was totally fine. Also had another drink that was a bit too tart for my taste but still good. Didn’t get food, but will come back for sure. Especially with a group of friends. Thanks!"

"The new spot on the block. 11/10 and heres why You can almost walk right by it if you are not careful. But if you have decent peripheral and an affinity for rustic architecture it should catch even the busiest of bustle’s who stride by. The first thing I noticed was the rusty tin look on the outside which gave this new spot a look of seniority amongst its neighbors. Looking into the window and you can see a cheese chop bar with big wheels of cheese and blocks of all shades of white and yellow. Inviting myself in only to reveal more than cheese but an entire bar and only what I can describe as a fireplace den with velvet plush couches and loves seats. It was dim-lit, lush, and damn right sexy. Keep going and we get to the outdoor patio This brings us to the Mediterranean seaside. I don't have the words to describe it. You're going to have to check it out yourself! Oh, and the cheese and charcuterie and cocktails are satisfactory, and then some. Employees are down to earth good-humored and friendly (but something tells me to push their buttons it's still Brooklyn) The bathroom was spotless which is incredibly impressive as important. I'd say this is a great place to come by yourself if you want to ponder about life. But the level of intimacy this place has makes it a hidden gem for dates. Bring a plus one here if you plan on swooning."

"This place is AWESOME. So beautiful, great cocktails, and who doesn't like charcuterie? I was heartbroken when Erv's closed and I'm so glad to see members of the Erv's team bringing excellent cocktails in a great space back to PLG."
