Jucy Lucy — Restaurant in New York

I took a chance and tried out this always-empty venue — big mistake. My night at Jucy Lucy was easily the worst bar experience I’ve ever endured in my 29 years as a New Yorker. I saw what seemed to be a manager or owner reducing a customer to tears over the group “not spending enough money”. Mind you the place was absolutely vacant on a summer weekend and yet I saw her SHOUTING (not once but twice) in a way that truly scared me. The flatbread pizza tasted frozen and the drinks were cheap but only because they were watered down. I don’t know what money could’ve been spent there since it was impossible to flag down the bartender who preferred chatting to the only other patrons at an otherwise desolate counter. I was there for hours and managed to get 2 drinks total. Take a look at how they respond to their negative reviews here. “Hope your life is miserable” is pretty much the perfect summary of the treatment you can expect to get. BEWARE of the old white lady with a crucifix necklace (christian where?) and better yet spend your money down the street at Jimbo Slims where the vibes are always impeccable and you’ll feel...

Had an excellent experience at Juicy Lucy. When my partner amd I arrived we were the only patrons in the room. Beautiful spacious cozy resturaunt all to ourselves. Decided to sit at the bar and keep the bartender company. He was hospitable and made small talk. We both ordered burgers and shared a side if fries. The fries were cooked golden perfection. The burgers were juicy as promised by the name of the resturaunt. Ketchup and mustard were the condiments offered to us. Fidnt need much more. I got the grilled cheese patty melt and my boo git the double burger. Good to the last drop. He had a beer on draft (good selection) and I kept it simple with water. It is handicapped accessible they also deliver. Parking can be difficult and citi bikes are right in front which removed to s of great parking spaces. I believe the train station is nearby. I will return....

HORRIBLE — staff was unfriendly, service was incredibly slow (the place was half empty yet ordering a drink took 15-20 minutes), but most of all the manager/owner was a complete nightmare.

Our party had put a deposit down to use a corner of the bar to serve pre-cut cake, and agreed to pay a drink minimum. Within 30 minutes of arriving, the manager berated the birthday girl 4 separate times repeatedly that we needed to order more drinks (everyone was already ordering drinks and had planned to continue to do so the entire night.) The pestering never stopped, and eventually veered into downright harassment, to the point where no one could relax or enjoy themselves anymore — so we decided to leave after 2 hours.

If it weren’t for her, we would have stayed and given them our business whole night, even though it was frankly a mediocre bar with zero...
