My brother and I came here last night (Saturday night 04/12) he’s been here a bunch of times and raved.. last night was my first time joining him. I definitely enjoyed myself . The bartender was great (attentive but not overbearing) the food was great. I got the chicken sandwich and he got a burger , both very solid choices. Will absolutely be back & 10/10 recommend

I got the Apple and butternut squash salad when I went to eat my salad I found a bug in it. I work in the food industry so this tells me they definitely don’t wash their salads…. What a disappointment. My whole appetite is gone…

Bar atmosphere with high top tables, some tables in the back & outside seating that’s on the sidewalk & in an open street shed. All the food was good but a little pricey. $11 for a French onion soup & $14 for a bowl of chili. Chili comes with cheese but I had it without. See pic. Will go there again though.

Great hometown place to eat. Food was fresh and really good! Good portion sizes too. We were visiting our daughter and wanted to check out area places to eat. This was one that caught our eye...and then our taste buds!! Would definitely go back.

Food was good. Service was good, especially for having new staff. Would've liked a better selection of hard/spiked teas and seltzers since I have celiac disease and can't drink beer, but other than that it was great. We all had a blast.

First time visiting this place in lower Riverdale. The service was excellent, and the owners were attentive. We had the fish and shrimp tacos. The fish was cooked perfectly and the shrimp had a the perfect spice. We really enjoyed the arugula salad. It had bacon, red onions, and blue cheese crumbles. The dressing was perfect and not greasy. We will definitely be back. You must try this place is you're in the Riverdale section of the Bronx.

Blackstone’s has the best bar food in NYC. No one else comes close. Their nachos can’t be beaten. They have the best chips to toppings ratio. Simply delicious! Their fries are addicting. Best wing’s anywhere. Always consistent in size and taste. Plus they have been voted best burger! Seriously, you have to eat there. You’ll thank me after. Grab a beer or cocktail while you are there. I love this place.

Occasionally do instacart and Uber Eats on the area. After I was finished decided to try a local place , I picked a good one! Nice atmosphere, food looked good didn't have any, the staff was excellent 👍. Would like to come back and try the food.

Excellent service. Wings amazing, flavor of the chicken sandwich amazing but It wasn’t crispy. Salmon blt was good but too fishy if that makes sense. Fries and drinks also very good.

Recently checked out this establishment on a Saturday night and had a wonderful time! The food was very tasty, fresh, and plentiful! Although I had a Bud Light I did order a bar drink but a delicate one, LOL! The atmosphere was a vibe, the wait staff were extremely attentive making sure all patrons were good and had everything we needed. It's not very big on the outside but once you go in it's actually a long and narrow eatery with big screen TV sets behind the bar and enticing blue lights. They do have outside seating but I chose to sit inside. Definitely recommend this place for a bite and a drink after work or on the weekend! Rory and Rosie were extremely attentive, kind, and hard working. They made sure me and my brother had everything we needed. We will absolutely return!

Great drinks, well made food and friendly staff. It's a nice a cozy place in my neighborhood. Give you the big city experience (whatever that is) without having to leave the area. Make sure you try the Grilled Chicken sandwich which pairs well with a Moscow Mule. Great spot, you won't be disappointed.
