WORST BARTENDING STAFF IN NYC. To celebrate a birthday, I asked my friends to meet me at this place. As I waited for my friends the bartender passed by me three to 4 times without even asking me what I would like to drink. Once I did get his attention he berated me for bothering him. sorry bartender but that is your JOB! I told my friends to meet me at the bar across the street, and guess what, THE BARTNEDER CAME UP TO ME RIGHT AWAY!!!! DO NOT GO HERE... it is full of 25 year old boys and no females....…
Overrated.
My friend and I are on a quest for the best burger. We decided one stop should be the Corner Bistro in the western village. Written up many time as the best burger in NYC.

You've heard of the soup nazi?.
I used to like the Corner Bistro until the night I brought a friend there after telling him about the burger (waited on line etc.), and they sat us next to a large garbage pail with flies buzzing
around it.
When I asked the waiter for another table he turned to me and snapped, "if you don't like it, you can leave". He knew we waited an hour to get in. I went to the manager, only to be told he didn't want to get involved and it was between me and the waiter. So we left.
Never been back since.…
