"Booked on Resy for a Saturday early afternoon Christmas brunch for two. Mean Fiddler is located right around the corner from 8th Avenue, off 47 st. There's an outdoor seating with the name of the establishment, making it easy to find. We walked in 30 minutes early for our reservation (12:30 arrival, 1 PM reservation) but the hostess sat us with no problem. They opened at 12, so only 3 other tables were occupied when we arrived. The inside was very very Christmas Grinch festive, super cute. Christmas lights, garlands hanging around, blow up Grinches when you walk in and hanging up. Ladies bathroom was clean. They have high seating tables and regular seating tables, tables a little small to hold the food/drinks, but doable. We sat for the 90 min bottomless brunch, $25 for that in addition to whatever entree you pick. The menu is available via scanning the barcode on your phone. They gave a free round of green tea shots as soon as we sat down, and those shots were delicious! They were on top of making sure we had drinks throughout the 90 minutes. We tried strawberry and passion fruit frozen margaritas, the naughty Santa margarita, the Mango margarita. Our favorite was the mix of strawberry and passion fruit frozen margarita, they gave us two small pitchers of this so we could refill our drink easily. The drinks came with grinch decor and mini candy canes. They also gave us holiday costume glasses to wear, since we were celebrating a birthday. For eats we got the grilled chicken wrap that came with fries, the mean Fiddler nachos, and steak quesadilla. The nachos were great, had jalapeños and a spicy kick in the white sauce. The wrap was tasty and the quesadilla good. Quesadilla portion was pretty small for $22, but the rest of the eats were decent sized. They brought two more green tea shots and rang an alarm/shouted out our birthday towards the end of our visit, which was great. They give you time checks when you're running close to the end of the bottomless. Our waitress was Katy, she was pleasant, sweet, and had a great Irish accent. The music was great as well, a mix of 80s and 90s/early 2000s, just up our alley. When Katy was busy the other waitresses made sure to come check in on how we were doing. They include automatic 20% tip with bottomless brunch, paid just under $145 for two people which is fine for a midtown location and non stop drinks for 1.5 hours. Would definitely visit again and do recommend."
