"This spot is small, cramped, a bit shabby, and quite loud, yet I absolutely love it! You need to be in the right mindset to enjoy this place. The seating is limited, with small stools crammed together, and since it's located in the basement, it has a dark, windowless feel. But the atmosphere is electric, with everyone seeming to be there just to have a great time. Whether you’re grabbing skewers and a beer solo or hanging out with a big group of friends after a night out for some late-night bites, this place delivers delicious skewers. It has that classic, gritty East Village vibe of old New York, so be prepared for the tiny restroom adorned with graffiti. This city needs places like this, as it retains a rawness that’s missing from the polished, gentrified restaurants that have emerged on St. Marks. Show your support for this business and indulge in the skewers!"
