Average Bar, Spectacular Waitress
by eat_club at Citysearch
Is Erin the best waitress in New York? Nope. I think Ellen at Fanelli's has that base covered. Marta at The Patriot gave her a run for her money, but she's since been fired, I hear. BUT, Erin is sure one of the top handful of waiter/tresses who has the personality to bring a smile to the lips of even a Chicago Cubs fan. Right there! Joking, bringing us the right stuff. Telling us about her adventures in med-school. (She's putting herself through Columbia. Yeah!) Everything you'd want that's legal and proper to give on a first meeting. She made our night! The food was nothing special, although the Buffalo Chicken Tenders were above average, in both taste and serving size. The tap beer selection: Yuengling, Sam Adams, Brooklyn, Blue Moon, was average for midtown. It if weren't for Erin, this would have been a pretty ordinary place, but it WERE for Erin and it was spectacular! --Drink Club NYC is a roving group of NYC drinkers
- Pros: Nice atmosphere, crowd thins at 10
- Cons: average beer selection, slightly pricey

Best sports bar the East Side
by mick1535 at Citysearch
I live on 52nd street and 1st ave, this bar has become my local. I get in there 2 to 3 times a week for dinner and enjoy watching the games on a Sunday at the bar (plenty of TVs and multiple games on). The bartenders/Waitresses are very friendly and attentive. I only wish I had found this place sooner!
- Pros: Great bartenders, Great Food
- Cons: none
