Clinton Hall — Restaurant in New York

I don't normally write long reviews but this was such a unique craft beer quest that I just had to take up all this space haha!

My boyfriend and I were coming from Jersey on our bikes and we decided to go bar-hopping in Bronx Little Italy. We were just riding around until we stumbled upon this nicely lit bar and that was by far, the best decision we made on this Easter Sunday!

The bar wasn't too crowded when we arrived around 9:00PM. We left our bikes outside and the manager noticed we didn't have our locks with us so he kindly offered us a space inside to stow our bikes. That was really thoughtful of him! Thank you!!

We looked at their menu and we are quite pleasantly surprised at the amount of craft beers they have available! We started with #9 and #17 (I think this one is passion fruit based. I could not remember their names to be exact). The latter was quite tart and refreshing!

Afterwards, we ordered the Fondue Burger and Trufle Fries. The meat was just exploding with flavor and it was still quite juicy even though we ordered it well-done! The cheese is literally oozing out of the burger at the first bite. The Fries were nice and thinly cut and so damn crispy! It is sprinkled with a little bit of Parmesan cheese and herbs. This combo goes really well with the Trufle oil they cooked it in. I just made myself hungry again....

For dessert, we had the Walter White's Methadonuts. This was such a super cute concept! They have these little syringes filled Nutella, Berry Jam, and Caramel that you can inject your delicious freshly-fried gooey donuts with!

We finished off with a strawberry-based craft beer and an apple-based craft beer. By far, that apple beer was my favorite! It was sweet; not tart at all and very mild like an apple cider but less sweet and less sour. The manager gave us nice beer samples throughout the night and overall was a good company :) On top of that, the service here was impeccable!

I can't wait to come back to this place and try other...

I had a party of 20 people with me. The place is small but great. One side has the games and tables and the other side is a cool lounge area with sofas and Tvs. We each ordered separately as well. In most restaurants this is usually a challenge. I will say that Fabian was absolutely amazing as well as super professional, patient and on top of his game. He was running the whole show. From doing it literally all alone he was bartending, taking orders, cleaning, cashier, talking to customers and he did it all so naturally. He always had a smile and did everything so seamlessly. He is definitely an employee that deserves a rasie. Everyone in my party prasied him. We are a family that does party's and events in a lot of restaurants in the city so we know great service. That man provided us with the best top notch service even after it became packed. I get that it is a bar but even at bars you will never receive the service we reciebed from Fabian.

If you do go there you must absolutely try his mango margarita. I'm a big fan of them and they can be a hit or miss. Well his was a hot 🔥 Hit!

Thank you Fabian as you definitely made this place. Without you there they would lose.

Never change! Stay happy, humble positive and keep on smiling!

He was so great that even though this place isn't as close as we thought it was we will definitely venture back with other people and that is thanks to the service Fabian provided us.

Thank you again and please let Fabian know that he is an...

I’m not sure if it was a location thing but how we was treated was unacceptable! We really felt discriminated against, we go to the bar and had to wait a few minutes to order drinks which was ok with us and I asked the bartender for the drink menu.. she says that they are mostly known for our beers but we do make margaritas and old fashions ..about 8 minutes passed and we are still waiting for the bartender who served 5-7 people behind us before acknowledging us we said that we wanted margaritas.. she made the drinks which looked skimpy to the point she added more ice and it still looked skimpy.. ok so I asked how much but at the same time she said that we had to move because the guy that was sitting down at that bar was back and standing behind I said ok but let us pay you first.. We paid her and walked out to the curb to the outside sitting area and we discussed what happened and said we will not come back because of how we was treated.. the energy was definitely off and I wish I could say it probably was just a bad day but I can’t because the people behind us wasn’t treated like that so be careful when coming to this location.. yes it’s 2024 and still discrimination is still happening...
