This sport bar is at UBS arena, the new home to the ice hockey team Islanders. We got there early when it is nearly empty. Long communal tables, with benches and bar stools, all without backs. The space is pleasant. The service could use little more training. The overall impression is, it’s new and needs time to get it going smoothly.
We have nachos (fine) and honey sesame oil Brussel sprouts (too sweet and oily). Pinot Project pinot noir is $18 … Why do sport arena vendors over charge? Now adds Ticket Master … the biggest scalper on the block.
Our server is from the area, she can’t stop chatting us up. From complimenting my skin to hers and her beauty route… I did give her my secret: Vaseline.
The bar is packed two hours before the Genesis concert.
Lady’s bathroom is dominated by Billy Joe.
