Expensive for the location but fun and accommodating
Sunday, July 30, 2006
We spent $40 a piece here. The dinner was really good, but that is somewhat pricey for the Lower East Side. The big expense was the great Xingu Beer at $6.50 a pop. The spicy shrimp was a welcome change in a city full of food wimps. All the dishes were delicious, and the staff was really accommodating of our rearranging the furniture as we grew. Dessert? The pineapple with rum sauce! Come before 7 if you want to be sure of a seat. Yowsah! --Eat club is a roving group of NYC gluttons.
Pros: great food, accommodating staff
Cons: a bit pricey for the neighborhood
