Reviews for Overlook in New York, NY
The burgers, wings and fries are good but the service has gone downhill. We work near by and used to stop for lunch frequently.... The bartender was very rude and made us feel very uncomfortable, even though the place was empty. Wonder if race had anything todo with it. Read more
I got to Overlook starving on a Tuesday's night at 10pm. I thought it was my last chance to grab a bite and these guys really... went above and beyond. I ordered the cheese burger with blue cheese and fried egg and it was absolutely amazing. I dare to sayit was one of the best burgers I ever had. Congrats! Great place! Read more
I didn't think I would ever find a bar in midtown with as good deals as this place. It's like one of the bars from back upstate... almost. To be clear, absolutely nothing fancy about the spot, but good service and cold beer w/ truly excellent happy hourdeals. one of my new regular spots Read more
They charged my friend $15 for a mocktail that did not have alcohol in it. They claimed they charge the same for drinks whether... they have alcohol in them or not, and that they also upcharged her to meet the $25 per person minimum required to play trivia,which also doesn't seem right or fair. The waiter was also rude to me, made fun of my order, and wouldn't let me order what Iactually wanted and convinced me to get something else instead. Would not recommend this place. Read more
I am giving this a 3 because the staff was nice and polite. The owner checked vaccination cards upon entry. However, the food... was not good. 1. Wings: We ordered half jerk style and half barbecue wings. Well the wings were basically cooked (withoutseasoning) and barbecue sauce (not the best either) thrown on top. The half jerk wings were the same with a certain dry seasonsprinkled on top. 2. Straw: We asked for a straw. As the server was brining the straw, the straw dropped on the floor twice.Although the straw was wrapped, he simply picked up the straw each time that it fell and handed it over to us. We didn’t usethe straw and asked another server for a new straw. 3. Turkey Burger: The menu says the best in NYC. I beg to differ. It’s abasic handmade turkey burger. 4. mouse: after we finished eating and allowing the food to digest. We saw a small mouse roamingthe dining room floor . The restaurant is dark with a little bit of light so this made the mouse feel at home. Honestly, themouse was right at home. Fortunately, the owner saw the mouse and tried to kill the mouse and asked the staff to place mousetraps in the dining room. But, this seemed like a common affair. Read more
When you come to a bar to ty a few beers and about 10 out of 12 are empty, it sure does surprise me a little. We were almost... glad that they could serve us any beer at all... As we did not seemed to be very welcome, we did not stay very long anyways. Anunusually dissatisfying experience for a bar in America... ???? Read more
Great spot. 2 for one deals on drinks. Service was slow plus I asked ordered Nachos and they gave me no Guacamole then when I... asked the waitress and she told me $3.50. Guacamole should always come on nachos like duh. I shouldn’t be paying extra forthat. The waitress took very long to bring the guacamole so I cancel that order. Like Guacamole MATTERS ?? Read more
Without a doubt, Overlook serves the best buffalo wings in New York City. I'd put them against anything. In my experience, they... are a close second only to Duff's Famous Wings. But, unless you plan to travel to one of the original meccas in Buffalo forwings on a regular basis, Overlook is THE spot for wings in our city. -Matt Read more
