The Ainsworth is one of the worst bars in NYC. It is pretty much T.G.I.Friday's at 4 times the price. Plus, the staff is routinely pretentious - you would think that they were working at Le Cirque. Do yourselves a favor and choose another spot...trust me...I have been here 4 times now, and my impression is not a one-time fluke.

A great scene. This is where you go on any given night for Hot guys and great sports. There is nothing like this in the city.

LOVE THIS PLACE. Went there Thursday night and had a great time....First time I went was opening night and I have been back many times. Great place to go when its really busy to meet cool people or also when its slow to just grab a drink with a friend and catch up

Definitely coming back here!. This restaurant is great! The food is wonderful and the service was superb! I really enjoyed dining here, the crowd seemed to be enjoying themselves as well. I would definitely recommend the tuna tartar tacos, very tasty with a kick to them.

Everyone should dine there, I think it has something to offer a variety of different tastes and personalities!

Not good. The food is overpriced and bad, drinks are expensive, and for something that calls itself a sports bar, it's almost impossible to watch a game.

Not A Fan. The food is ridiculously overpriced and most meals are not worth the money. Definitely not worth going to.

Horrendous Service. was really excited when a sports bar opened in the neighborhood but the service is unbearable.

i have been a few times the food is lacking, and the service is always terrible and i don't think i'll be going back after last night's horrendous dinner.

the waitress was unresponsive to our requests for drinks and just way too slow. it took 45 minutes to get a burger to the table. we watched as our waitress stood by the bar, eating, watching TV, and texting on her cell phone. she had 4 tables to cover, which should be a breeze for even the rookie waitress. bad food and absolutely horrible service.

Really Slow service. Waited well over an hour for an order of wings and fries. The place wasn’t even crowded. Terrible.

Bad in every category. This place doesn't have a solid identity. It tries to be a place for nice food/drinks, a dance party, a sports party, and a chill neighborhood watering hole. It fails in every category.

The staff gives off a sleazy vibe to me. The drink are overpriced and the food is gross. Bad all around.
