Ainslie Bowery

Came here in the summer for a team building event at my work. The space was beautiful and inviting. There are so many different spaces for having a large get together or a small, personal event. The staff were friendly and engaging. We had a pre-ordered menu of wings, meatballs, chicken, salad, pasta and several other dishes. The food was delicious-especially the wings. My team loved them. The pizza was very good and there is an area where you can watch them make it. The bar had several different draft beers and micro-brewery selections. The bar is also quite large, with space for a large gathering. I would definitely return for a more personal gathering. This is a great location for wedding receptions, showers, sports viewing parties and probably any other gathering you can think of!

Sunday Funday-BRUNCHDish 1: The French Toast was made to perfection and the combo with the strawberries and cinnamon whipped cream to melt for.Dish 2: The Chicken Milanese was exactly what I was craving. Paired with the arugula salad and avocado lightly seasoned with salt/pepper and lemon juice.Dish 3: BRUNCH Pizza with Sunnyside EggsDrinks: Mimosas, Peach Bellini, Spiked Iced TeaDessert: Surprise Birthday Tiramisu Cake

Literally amazing! Holy cow, the food was delicious!! I got the wood fire chicken and let me tell you, I eat chicken FREQUENTLY and this is by far the best chicken I think I’ve ever had!!Dalila was my server and she was so kind and checked in on just the right times!! She also was so helpful explaining the menu to a Kansan like me :)Also.. this place is a MEGA vibe!! So moody and relaxing! Cannot recommend it enough!!

This is a place for large gatherings, great decor atmosphere layout spacious with plenty of room for big groups. Service was attentive despite being one person tending to a large table. The only disappointment was the food, very average- not bad but nothing special.

We had the best time at Ainslie Bowery! Thank you, Bela, for taking such good care of us and helping to make it a special event. We had a private room for 18 people (can easily fit more) for a family celebration. The pre-fixe family style menus were personalized, two managers checked in on us during the evening, and, all the food and drinks were excellent, plenty, and perfectly timed! All the food got rave reviews for quality and taste, which is tough to pull off for a large group family style meal. This was our first time experiencing Ainslie Bowery and we will definitely be back. A terrific, fun, location for small or large parties, events, or just a night out.

I came here for a nice group brunch back in March. The pizzas were a great add for the table. The pasta and aracini were standards. If youre looking for great cocktails and 90s/early 00s vibes this is your place.

The restaurant itself is beautiful . The service was great. The food was also great. Went with a group of 13 , did the prefix family style menu which was $42 per person. The portions were large enough to share . The options were plentiful. The pasta was great(cacio e Pepe and penne alla vodka) , the margarita pizza was also great as was the arancini, which was the best thing on the menu. The wings I can’t say I loved . I had 2 non alcoholic drinks ,they were outstanding and the alcoholic drinks got good reviews from my friends . The space is very large. Google photos don’t do it justice. Looking forward to going during the warmer weather since they have outdoor seating options and also would love to check out the standard menu.

Absolutely delightful all around. Exceptional service. Fun atmosphere. Great DJ. Very reasonably priced for brunch.

Fun beer garden. It is a little noisy as the restaurant was packed, so if you prefer a quiet intimate dinner, this may not be your place. But if you are in the mood for noise, fun and laughter, Ainsley is the spot,The beer, cocktails, starters and entrees were all delicious. They serve you as soon as the items are ready. We enjoyed the chicken wings, arugula salad, burrata, french fries and the house marinated olives. For dinner, we had the pasta pomodoro, cacio e pepe and house made papardelle. Good portions and we had leftovers.

The food is absolutely incredible!! I will be dreaming about the truffle fries for the rest of my life. We got a family style brunch and not only was the food amazing, but the service was quick and convenient.Great prices as well and games in the back!

Im a fan of Ainslie in Williamsburg so I had high hopes for the new Bowery location. I was pleasantly surprised by huge and stunning the space was but they definitely took advantage of it and made great use of each corner. Depending on what type of ambiance you want, the restaurant is separated in different sections. I went in for a more quiet and intimate dinner so I was seated in the back and I had a great experience. The food was also delicious. My only complaint was that they brought the entrees while we were still eating the appetizers even though we told them we wanted them afterwards. Other than that, I had a great time and would go back.

I visited Ainslie for the first time for some cute one on one time with my mom, and we had a ball. I immediately fell in love with the interior- it is so warm and inviting - covered in little accent pieces like velvet pillows and chairs, chandeliers over tables, small warm spotlights and wood finishes. Obsessed. Also theres an air hockey table and a foozeball table. Two bars make sure everyone gets a drink!I ordered a non-alcoholic cocktail, was so happy they had that option, to start me off. Super refreshing and green. For starters we ordered the Shrimp Scamp, it came in a cute little dish and we shared it, very flavorful broth that paired well with the bread. We jumped right into pizza with the Saltimbocca, easily my fave of the evening - dough was wonderfully soft yet crisp. Toppings were put on liberally.The Salmon was good, nice and fatty and tender, the broccoli rabe was such a great way to compliment our meal and the House-made Ragu was great. Nice bite. Lots of meat in the sauce was a pleasant shock!So, totally recommend for dinner dates, after work hang outs and everything else lol, would love to visit them for brunch sometime too!

Every component at Ainslie from the regional wines to housemade pastas sang with the flavors of Italia. And the variety of spaces all united by fine hospitality made us feel part of one big family!

Have been waiting for Ainslie to open for months. Finally happened!! I went early and ate at the bar. Great vibe, delicious food and wonderful staff. Of all the things I tried (some of which I took home with me), my favorites included the Wood Fired Beets w/ Labneh & Toasted Almonds, the Diavola pizza with spicy salami,, the Burrata (amazing!!). The bartender also makes a fabulous perfect Manhattan. The only menu items that I was underwhelmed by were the brussels sprouts which are normally a fave of mine. I also tried the Linguini Vongole with littleneck clams which was good but not what I would probably order again here vs. the pizza. Im giving it a 4 instead of 5 only because while at 5pm it was really chill, not too much later in the evening, I sense it will be quite a scene and most likely pretty loud. It just opened but its clearly going to be super popular - especially for larger groups. Ainslie has lots of tables with seating for 6-8, as well games, e.g., foosball and cornhole.

SCAMMERS! DEMAND YOUR RECEIPT! These guys will present you with the little terminal thing but not show you your receipt. I checked my credit card statement the day after visiting and found that I had been overcharged by more than $100. I had to call them to get them to send me a copy of the receipt and found that they had charged me for tons of things I didnt order. Will be taking them to small claims.

Hello! AllFunNYC from Instagram here! What an Incredible opening at @aisle at their new location at 199 Bowery NY! Incredible space with good vibes and most importantly great food and drinks!

HUGE, great for bottomless brunch with large groups of people

Riley was an amazing waiter and was great at making sure we were taken care of. The food was good and the bottomless brunch was great! I would definitely come back here again

We went to the restaurant to celebrate our 2 year anniversary.. the place was perfect.. our server Riley was amazing… so attentive, so on point… the brunch was delicious and the space was just great.. highly recommend this place..

Good is very good but not life-changing. The vibe is the same: very pleasant but not incredible. The service was excellent and the prices are great. Ill be back if Im in the area, but its not worth its own trip across the city.

Great dining experience! We came here for my cousins birthday dinner, since we were a lot of people we did the family style and they were able to make me a small gluten free pasta since I couldn’t eat the pasta the table ordered. The arugula salad was so fresh and delicious! The charcuterie board was really good, although it was a little small as they only brought out one board for everyone to share, but everything else they brought 2 out of. The burrata was really good as well! Everyone said that the food they ate was really good! They have cocktails and mocktails as well. The vibes were amazing and so was the service!

Awesome awesome awesome place. I celebrated my birthday here. Amazing place for big groups. There are some games to play. The staff were so nice and welcoming. We brought our own cake. The host was so accommodating. I will definitely come back here

Our server Dalila was absolutely amazing!! My friends and I had a 15/10 time. Def recommend for any groups of people who want good brunch vibes.

Riley is the best! I have been to Ainslie Bowery numerous times for brunch with large parties of 10+ and he is always so attentive, pleasant, and patient, making our experience memorable and fun! Thanks for your service Riley!

Had a really bad birthday experience here. Would not recommend. Waited 40 minutes after arriving to the restaurant to be seated and another hour and a half for drinks. The food was good, but the service was god awful.

The restaurant has a great atmosphere and the food was great! Had the penne alla vodka pasta and margarita pizza and both were so yummy. Had great service and Arturo was the best. He came out with our food really quick and had good recommendations!

Went for a dinner party with my wife and some friends to celebrate a graduationFood was okeyish: we had some pizzas and burrata to share. Pizza crust was good and crispy, but toppings only okey. Burrata lacked of flavour and was a bit dry.Cocktails were a bit on the soft side. They do have a good selection of european beers.Vibe was very high, I would only come back for that. Music is extremely loud to have an actual conversation.Service was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of people.Would only come back for beers and the vibe on a weekend night.

I cant rip this place hard enough.Disaffected host. Like we were an irritation, not customers.Tasteless burrito salad. In the middle of tomato season. No balsamic, and no apology or remedy from the waiter.Failed to clear any dishes, so they just piled up in an unsightly mess.Arancini straight from the freezer. Lasagna reheated poorly, congealed, chef boy ar dee level of taste and texture.Cap music too.

This place is great for food, drinks and a great atmosphere. Got the pizza and a beer. Wasnt too cold, so a lot of people in the first dining area. Great, they have some games inside and outside as well. They have a nice range of different beverages and also non alcoholic. A large group or two people can enjoy the space and great people watching. The service was spectacular . Didnt wait long for our food or drinks!

Recently did a baby shower at Ainsley Bowery and it was FANTASTIC!! It’s a beautiful place for a party. The food was amazing and the service from Riley and Arturo was outstanding!! They kept the food and drinks flowing and made sure all of our guests had an excellent time! 10 out of 10!!

Good restaurant for Italian pizza + pork ragu and wine.

My dish was recommended by the server and it was so good that I had to immediately make sure that I could find a recipe online... because I live in Maine, and refuse to live a life without orecchiette ever again... I find it hard to believe that we will be able to recreate this gem half as well up where I am from, but this was a delightful highlight for our trip to NYC.

I loved the food and drink prices. The hit honey pizza and the rosemary wings was so good.

Arturo, our waiter, was fantastic, with a great personality!The food, atmosphere, and drinks were all excellent!

A delightful place to have drinks and dinner. The staff was outstanding and took great care of us.

Bad food - the burger was $22 and worse than a big mac.Bad service, would not swap my fries for a different side despite the other side being the same price as fries on the menu.Refused to split the bill.Charged $5 for club soda and more than half the damn glass was ice. Did not give free refills on that either.Music was too loud to comfortably converse.There were no redeeming qualities for this restaurant.

Wow, amazing place. Love the locale. Friendly atmosphere and great service. Our server, Arturo, was superb. His delivery with a smile made our night. Food was excellent as well. Thank you so much!

Awesome for large groups. I came here for a last minute birthday brunch with 9 people. There were a number of other large parties but the service was still pretty decent and the food was great.You should DEFINITELY order the wings.

Great Ambience, a must experience! Huge place and downstairs had a Salsa event.

Food was amazing! the rosemary wings were my favorite! Riley was an AMAZING server.

Didnt eat the food. Had the Mr. Easy gin cocktail at the bar. Refreshing and boozy. $15/drink. Fun music, large place.

Food was delish - Orecchiette with sausage and rabe was impressive, very tasty and a large portion. Everyone elses food was delish too!Hip brunch spot, though a little on the young end which matches the volume of the music. We are defo on our way to old & cranky, but not there yet in our early 30s, and the music was a tad too loud for 4pm. That made it hard to talk and meant we moved on for drinks elsewhere faster than we would have otherwise.

It’s always a vibe at Ainslie whether you are in Manhattan or Brooklyn. Delicious food, service was outstanding, everything came out warm and flavorful!

Came in after a very long bad day, my mother and I were welcomed here and assigned one of the best servers ever! My Server was Bela she really turned my day around, haven’t seen my mother laugh like that in a while! Everytime we got our Don Julio margs (servers recommendation) it came quickly and made perfect. Next time gonna bring the whole family and reserve one of those private rooms Bela told me about. Thank you!

Came last night with a group of girlfriends celebrating a birthday, GREAT ambiance, delicious food, and we absolutely ADORED our server Reilly. He was so fun and attentive! Loved the food, and loved the service😍

Isabella was our server, she was great, very informative about the menu options! Tge atmosphere, music food and drinks are very good! Great for a Date night as well!

Went to Ainslie Bowery for a Wedding shower and it was a nice event space. The staff was attentive and pleasant. The food was good. I loved the arancini and the mushroom pizza. The drinks were delicious. Overall I am willing to go back for dinner service.

Highly recommend this spot!!! The food is great, happy hour until 7 (!!), and their staff is really nice. Great spot for large gathering, work happy hours, birthdays

Went for a private event and the food and service were solid.

Excellent food, fun place for a group.

Great restaurant with lovely ambience. Both food and wine were great. Riley was a very attentive server and we thoroughly enjoyed our time!

Large, casual, restaurant on the Bowery. A group of 20 people were able to spend the whole evening enjoying each others company. We sat at the same table and changed seats to talk to each other.

Ainslies rooftop brunch nyc experience is unbeatable the views and the vibe are just what you need for a great start to your day its the ultimate brunch spot in the city, where you can enjoy breathtaking views while savoring delicious brunch classics and innovative creations.

Dalila was a GREAT server. Attentive, kind, and checked on us frequently. 10/10 experience.

Reviewing for Yelp Elite Event:I was only able to stop by here for a half hour, as I had a Mens League game to absolutely dominate at 7pm.These non +1 Yelp Elite Events are always interesting ahahaha as you have to mingle with people you dont know. I feel like Im back in my Freshman year of college. If youre like me, youre really shy, insecure, and introverted and the game of social dynamics doesnt come natural to you. I feel like Shaq shooting a free throw at times.The name of the game is to find one person who is in the same boat as you and latch onto them like a buoy in open water...Ok I know there are likely no buoys in open water but work with me here ahahaa. Shoutout to my boy Andy R. who became my life raft for the night!Andy and I stood there about 10 steps away from the DJ in the beautiful open space of the Ainslie Bowery, taking in the sheer demographics of Yelp Elites in NYC. Seemingly every age and every race represented it was actually kinda beautiful I cant even lie.We went up a few stairs to go get some food, and I just went with 2 slices of pizza as I needed to carbo-load for the upcoming game I needed to dominate.The pizza was honestly not good, as I couldnt even really bite through it lol but I completely understand how hard cooking in bulk is and who knows how long it had been sitting there. I saw some fresh pizza being served to people at tables while I was walking in and it looked GAS.Ainslie Bowery was a FANTASTIC space to host an event, and I always love these big open restaurants with a lot of square footage in NYC, as they are few and far between.And no, we didnt win our Mens League game. It was a bitter, bitter pill to swallow and Im still licking my wounds tbh, but this will only make us stronger as a group and as a unit. WE WILL BOUNCE BACK THIS WEEK!IG @jnov_Tiktok @jnov__

Great brunch deal! Very spacious and nicely decorated. Staff is friendly. The food took a while to get to us and it wasn’t very busy. But overall definitely recommend. Not sure what the vibe is at night time but I’m assuming it’s really nice.

Was invited to the soft opening and had a great experience. Pizza was delicious, burger was amazing and the pasta was incredible. Never been to the BK space but it looks really fun. Prices are supposed to be very reasonable and I will back to find out!

Arturo took great care of us and really made sure we had a great time!!! Would absolutely come back!!!!

Tony Pastors Opera House, 199-201 Bowery, 1865-75

Sooo great for big group dinners for delicious food and vibes galore. James is one of the best waiters any of us have had in NY. Huge spot with room last minute for groups, very convenient while bringing vibes of an exclusive spot

Great space for a group. Shuffle board tables etc. The drinks were well done and our group enjoyed the pizza. I’m vegan and there were options available. I’ve been wanting to go to some of the events they have on the lower level - it looks like it’s a vibe

They were able to accommodate us last minute with no reservation! WE WERE A GROUP OF 16 PEOPLE! I love their Williamsburg OG location and this location didn’t disappoint at all! We did Family style and everything was delicious! Highly recommend the pizza, steak, and pomodoro meatballs! Staff was welcoming! Overall great!

Dalila was very attentive and kind during our visit - I totally recommend group visits here.

I recently went to a Salsa event at this location and I have to say it was amazing so much fun I will definitely recommend for anyone to try it.I would definitely be back!

The waiter was the only nice one. There was a horrible bald man, by the way, with a terrible attitude! The food is fine, but it’s not a fancy place or as impressive as it looks on Instagram.

Jasmine is the bestttt! So attentive best espresso martini ever, really helped explain the drink menu and gave suggestions of what to get!

I didnt eat here so no food rating, but saw plates go by and it looked delicious. I went for dancing - salsa night is fun and the venue has a really nice vibe.

We only stopped in here for a quick drink but the place is absolutely stunning! If hed had more time Id definitely have visited for dinner. Drinks were great and they had proper Stella Artois !

The drinks were ok but a bit pricey and a touch too sweet. The crowd tends to be on the younger side.I did not order food by my friends did. The food looked good with decent portions.

A bunch of scam artists. Falsely advertise an event as 90% sold out to draw in more buyers and inflate prices of tickets.

This is a great place, service and food are great!During summertime, they have Latin dance underground .

We ordered their pizzas and trugfle fries which were delicious. Cant complain about it. Service was amazing and the restaurants vibe is perfect for large dinners or more intimate settings

Love the live plants hanging from the ceiling in the event space

Great vibe! Loving the pizza!

Had a lovely experience at the new Ainslie Bowery!Started with the fried calamari & Arancini that were so good and fresh! Cocktails were a good size and strong!Then got the Boscaiola pizza and lasagna that were yummy. Ended with the Nutella pizza!Great portion size for the price. Completely recommend this spot for a date night or larger group dinner. It’s a very big space with a beer hall in front, private event space in back along with foosball and shuffleboard! Great service as well.Live DJs on weekend + an amazing happy hour! Go check it out

From Texas & we stayed at the Citizen M Bowery next door. The bartender (Seleen) was not only cool and inviting, but she waited on us hand and foot. Much love for that. Not to mention the food was amazing. The authenticity of the food and vibes are outstanding. Ordered margherita pizza & spaghetti pomodoro & it was so good, I doubled back 24 hours later.

I sat at the bar and Quita B took care of me the whole time. I asked her to surprise me with each drink (I had four rounds) and each experience was something new. Truly an amazing experience, I will be coming back thanks to Quita!! 🥰

Food was great! Staff was super nice. The music was extremely loud and could barely hear others at my table. Good amount of food for the price.

Riley was our server and he was so knowledgeable and attentive. The food was amazing - especially the Orecchiette! Thank you Riley for the recommendation!

Real fun bar in good location. Outside space available

This place is awesome. Good vibes beer hall with foosball and shuffleboard. I’m not very good at shuffleboard but I tried. Nice food too! Had a party for a friend I met on the Pitch Social app here, good choice

Very friendly staff but the food isn’t that good. also they no longer do bottomless brunch which is very disappointing as the food is not worth the price

We celebrated our elopement at Ainslie Bowery recently and had a wonderful time. Ron has been amazing to work with, our group of people is quite diverse, some dont eat pork, some dont eat meat in general, but all of our friends and family seemed to enjoy everything, no food was left :)Ron and his team went above and beyond our expectations, its hard to find this type of service at this reasonable price level in NYC nowadays! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

Amazing place and I’ll definitely come back. Arturo was so good.

Located in the heart of Bowery, Ainslie -- which has its original establishment in Brooklyn -- has expanded the portfolio with this Manhattan outpost where you can indulge in delicious appetizers, pasta, and meat dishes.Ainslie in downtown Manhattans Bowery neighborhood features 20,000 square feet of area that includes a beer garden, a beer hall, and a game area. This Italian wine bar and restaurant with an open kitchen serves wood-fired pizzas and classics like lasagna, branzino, and much more.Wood Fired Rosemary Wings / Salt and Pepper RibsThese appetizers are perfect for sharing and carnivores dream! The Wood-Fired Rosemary Wings are absolutely mouth-watering and served with a side of savory Gorgonzola Dulce sauce. The Salt and Pepper Ribs are a bit on the dry side and overcooked, but the meat just falls off the bone.Grilled BranzinoThe Grilled Branzino has crispy skin and lean juicy meat. Its served with a side of sauteed spinach and roasted cauliflower for a perfectly balanced dish.Free Range Hanger SteakCooked to your desire (in my case, rare!), the Hanger Steak is extremely tender and melts in your mouth. The watercress salad in balsamic dressing on the side pairs well with the steak, along with the truffle fries.

Its an incredible experience for a city searching for the next big thing. I left at 1230 am ... Ainslie was alive. I took my Mother n Law ... and two of my kids. Everyone was happy.When I was leaving Get Lucky was playing ... so good.

Absolutely tremendous beers on tap and can. Wood fired wings and pizza were delicious!

Went for a friends engagement lunch and we reserved the back room area. Delicious hors doeuvres (shrimp and deviled eggs especially). Roomy place. Outdoor seating options available. Good drinks.

Loved loved loved it.. must come great service & fantastic food best bartender ever Lauren …

Recently came to the restaurant and had the pleasure of being helped by Delilah, would come again because of her!

Arturo was very attentive and customer-service oriented. Our Server was amazing!

Here for a special event. The food was great - all served as a buffet. Really liked the space. There are several sections, a front, big middle, and back section.

Delilah was fantastic. Great food. Lovely restaurant.

Had the margarita pizza and with the wooden oven style, the outcome was very delicious

Ainslie Bowery Team and the Events Manager Ron Heard went above and beyond to make our event extremely special. Their dedication to quality and customer service allowed us to have the most spectacular bridal shower. Thank you Ron and your team for working with us and making all of our dreams come true for this event. Ron, you are a true professional, extremely creative, and caring. Thank you!!!!!

Arturo waited on us and he is the best, so attentive, great conversations and quick! My husband and I had a wonderful time here, food was amazing and a total vibe.

Food was perfecttttttttt!!! Riley is the best! Pefeeecccctttttttttttt

Wedding dinner , all very good food. Everything was cooked well.

Davila was amazing. Great service super friendly. Overall amazing time she needs a raise 🫶🏽

Arturo was an amazing server. Shout out to him!

We were here for a birthday dinner so we were a large group but we had made reservations in advance. First of all, when we arrived we were seated at a skinny long high top table right next to the bar in the front room. This room was noisy and the table was good for having just drinks, not a full dinner. We politely asked to be seated at a different table, in the back room, where it was much quieter and there were multiple open tables that were bigger. They were not able to accommodate us, which on its own would have been fine, but they had terrible customer service as well. When asked about the table, the hostess or whoever she was was dismissive and just walked off, not even bothering to hear us out about why we wanted a different table. When our food arrived it was hard to make space for everything on the table, and the servers werent even clearing up the empty plates/glasses in a timely manner. It did not feel like a sit-down dinner, it felt chaotic as if we were just having drinks and food at the bar. The dinner package included unlimited drinks for a certain time period. There was only one waiter we were able to order drinks with, and he was not coming by often. Therefore, when he did come by, some of us would order a drink pre-emptively, while we were still finishing our current one, because we knew he would not be back by the time we were finished with our drink. Upon noticing that we were doing this, he didnt politely tell us it wasnt allowed; instead, he said relax! you guys need to relax. You cant pile drinks. Nobody was piling multiple drinks, we were just ordering one drink ahead and everyone was finishing their drinks so they werent even being wasted. Never have I been told to relax at a restaurant where we were not even being impolite or rowdy. The food was alright. Cauliflower tasted like nothing, cacio e pepe sauce was watery, penne with red sauce was alright. Im not sure if the bad service was because our party was brown, but I have never been treated in such a dismissive manner at a place that considers it self to be a nice, upscale restaurant. Would never go here again.

Wow! I came here for Salsa night and it was super lively and hectic, with a good gender ratio. Music was good and there was Salsa, Bachata, and Reggaeton. Inspired me to get back into learning Cuban Salsa so I can actually dance here!

Bella was amazing really made my night. I will definitely be back!

Delilah was so nice! Had a great time with amazing food & drink :)

Decent prices for family style, food is ok

Great food and great music

Great place for large gathering. Their white pizza is awesome! Average foods in general.

I am surprised that this place has such less reviews, probably coz its very new. Absolutely loved the ambience here. Its a huge place with dedicated bar and dining areas. Service was really good.

Good food good vibe and amazing space

Riley had great service for us. The food came really quickly

Came here after work with some friends and had a good time. The service was great and the food was delicious. I had the Ainslie burger cooked to medium and it was perfect. It comes with Gorgonzola but I asked to swap that with mozzarella and they were accommodating. Really great tasting burger. Also liked the truffle fries that come on the side. There’s also some fun games around like shuffle board or cornhole so that was a fun way to end the night.

Immaculate vibes. Pizza was fantastic, look at that crust!

Stellar value for bottom less brunch, food aight

This review pertains to the partial outdoor dining area. Ainslie interior is beautiful, and there were tons of empty tables even during weekend brunch hours. However, they were seating groups in the bustling outdoor section. Even with the metal barriers, it was still very distracting to see people pass by. Our group was also seated the furthest outside, near the bean bag toss area where customers and staff played. The cafeteria style/beer garden bench was not very comfortable and made it difficult to enjoy group company. Second-hand smoke kept finding its way to us, too. Basically, if I am to return, I would do my best not to sit outdoors again! I wish our table was more discreet since we wanted to set up a surprise party for some friends (but impossible since everyone can see us right away).My friend is a fan of their happy hours and he recommended coming on a weekday.I ordered eggs in purgatory on the brunch menu. Please dont get it - its a very bland polenta. Their pizzas are excellent though. The spiked ice tea was alright and the servers constantly refilled the pitchers.

Came in with a large group for a bachelorette party and we were seriously impressed. Had exceptional service from Arturo who was personable, attentive, and made great recommendations. We had the bottomless brunch/family style options and were blown away by the sheer quantity of the food. Try the burrata and cacio e Pepe. They were crowd pleasers.

Very mediocre food but decent service and good vibes. Good option for large parties

This was a nice spot! The ambience was inviting and allowed for a great start to the night. Our server, Dalila, was lovely! Very timely and helpful.

Stopped in just because we were passing by, with no reservation. The staff, service, and food could not have been better.

Wonderful restaurant! Enjoyed the ambiance and the rosemary wings are amazing. 10/10 would recommend. Delilah is a delightful server as well.

James was our server . They were amazing and made our experience very enjoyable. Beautiful experience if your there ask for James. 10 out of 10 recommend

Dalila was the nicest waitress my family has ever had. I have 7 kids so some restaurants turn us away but she wrapped us in her warmth.

Dalila was very sweet and nice with her service. She checked in on us to make sure we were ok. The restaurant had a very nice environment. Great service overall. I enjoyed my food as well.

Decent food and excellent service from Dalilia! She is super sweet and attentive. Music is a little loud and the bar area is nice.

Reserved for my birthday. Perfect food and great service! Dalia did a great job serving us!! Hope to come by again!

Bella was warm and welcoming and couldn’t have asked for better service!

Came for happy hour. Food was excellent. Drinks were pretty big and tasty. Everything was reasonably priced. Also the service was really good. Lauren was our bartender and server, she was so friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back.

Came here for Timeleft. The food was great and Delilah was a great server. Will definitely come back again.

Came here this past week and had the most incredible experience!! Our server Riley was very attentive and had such a fun aura and personality. Atmosphere and food was great would come back

I LOVE DALILA she is queen 👸🏼

Had dinner there last time I was home the wings are amazing and so are most of the apps we had.

Great spot in LES! As cool as the Williamsburg spot, with much more space and great food and drinks. Service was impeccable - Dalilia really looked after us, thank you!

Delicious food, can’t recommend the arancini enough. Dalila was an angel, she took care of us better than we were prepared for!

Really nice service, Leila was super kind

Amazing food and drinks. Honestly best bar in NYC for big groups. Beautiful cocktail lounge downstairs

Great experience ! Great vibes with good food … and good vibes and musicAnd the staff is very friendly, I was served by Delila

Arturo you’re the best

Came to check it out in passing on a weekday. The space is huge and it was busy but not extremely packed. I had just missed happy hour but I got a snack and a beer at the bar. The meatballs were pretty good and came out quick since I only took a few sips before it got to me.They have a back bar as well and will also have a downstairs eventually. Place was done well but there are no TVs if you were looking to watch the game.

Draws a young professional crowd on weekend nights. Good place for a drink and socializing.

Dalilah 😎😎😎 gave the best service. Request her!

DAlila served us and her customer service was AMAZINGGG the place was extremely beautiful!!!

Dalilia made my party and I’s experience here wonderful. What an angel.

I’ve got nothing but good things to say about Ainslie! The food was fantastic, service good, and the space is huge and comfortable. We had a large party so ate off of a pre-fixe menu. The portions are generous and the prices super reasonable. We had the kale Caesar salad, arancini, meatballs, and burrata to start. All were superb. The arancini was perfectly cheesy and not too greasy. Our mains were the margherita pizza, pappardelle, and orecchiette pasta. The mains were also tasty and plenty of food. The cocktail list is small but well done. I would absolutely come back here with a large party!

Place is awesome to be honest, massive. Nice ambience, very good vibes, clean and comfortable, good friendly staff. They just need a solid dj to keep the place pumping.

Good vibes & good happy hour. Had fun playing cornhole. Try the truffle pizza!

We had great service and a time. Thanks Dilila!

Bottomless brunch for a good price in hyper-inflated 2024. Your drunkness should be directly proportional to inflation. If you stumble out of here at 1:30 you did not capitalize on the bottomless........ I want you face-first on the floor, the staff panicking, your friends unconcerned because theyre also face-first. That. Is a good brunch

Overpriced and under-seasoned. Very mediocre Italian food. The space is huge and feels very impersonal.

I love going to Ainslie. While the food and drinks are EXCELLENT, I go back regularly because of the salsa socials hosted by DJ John John in the Underground and Wine Room and because of a very specific bartender named Zachary. Zachary alone gives me the Cheers vibe; always knows my name, my drink, and me.

Our search for rentable spaces for parties led us to Ainslie, and we couldn’t be happier. The space was adaptable to our needs, offering a mix of indoor and outdoor areas. The Bowery location provided a vibrant backdrop for our event, and the staff ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish

Arturo was our waiter and he was the best!!

Food was very good but service was not great.

Came here before heading to a concert. Arturo was beyond accomdating and truly knew how to make us feel comfortable. 10/10 one of the best guys there are!

Delila is the best!!

Had an early post-work reservation with a friend on a Wednesday night. Most people were sitting at the bar but this venue is MASSSSSIVE. Which is why it was odd to dine here at the time we did and nobody was there. Will put this down to the fact its new and people are still finding out about it. Cacio E Pepe was fine, but not great. Have attached the menu with prices because I found it odd that it wasnt listed on the website.

This place is huge! So even if it looks busy in front there is a second bar in back thats usually quiet!

It has been the best place for us in NY. Se will come back early! Tasty food! Thanks to Isabela!

I usually go to the location in willy b and i went to the location in the city. I must say it’s consistent and im happy! Free dessert yea!! S/o To James!

Our server was amazing

If you’re looking for the best bottomless brunch NYC has, Ainslie is the spot. Endless drinks and delicious food in a great location.

Aisnlie really knows how to handle a large group event. We had a gathering with friends from all over , and the space accommodated us perfectly. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making everyone feel at ease. Its a great spot in the bowery for any large gathering.

A little loud. Good for large groups. Needs better bathroom signage.

Dalila is great!

This place is awesome! The service was great. The food was good but not amazing. The highlight of this place is the atmosphere and drinks. This place has many games like Foosball. It is a beer hall but also a chill place to get a drink. Definitely will be coming back

Vibes were excellent. Arturo was amazing - the nicest service and best recommendations!

Arturo was a great waiter! go for the ambience and good music.

Delilah was the best!

Food was excellent! Came out very fast - our server Riley was was also great!

Dont sleep on their food!!! Such good fusilli.

Five out of five for Dalila, absolute dream!

Great service and food. Bella was a great host!

Dalila was awesome!

Riley was the best ever! Everything was PERFECT 🤩

Great meatballs! Amazing service from Arturo.

Our private party at Ainslie was a hit, thanks to their dedicated staff and beautiful setting

Such a fun place! Ran into it randomly one time and now i come back often

We loved the throwback hits and room to dance!! Coming back here for sure

Great for larger groups, but if you have 10 or more you have to order from the family style menu..we preferred a la carte brunch so we split our table into 2 tables. Plenty of space on a Sunday afternoon..space is huge

My friends & I came to celebrate & had the best time. Arturo was so nice & gave the best service!!

Dalila is the best

Dalila is amazing

Definitely my go to spot. Love it here Riley provides great service and is very attentive.

I love the Bowery location just as much as the one in Williamsburg. Beautiful and airy environment with different feels depending where you sit (garden, beer hall, wine room). Happy hour specials include food and drink which is awesome. Great pizza for $8!!! They also take reservations. I will come again and again.

AMAZING!!! Riley and the team made this night so special. I will forever come back in the future. Best resteraunt and service in New York hands down! Well done 👏

I went for brunch with a group of friends and can firmly say this was my worst restaurant experience in recent memory. The food was all disappointing, ranging from a truly gross eggs Benedict to a just-okay burger and pizzas. The drinks were overpriced and underwhelming. Topped off with a bad wait staff who seemed confused most of the time, and didn’t even question why two of us didn’t touch our food, this was a 0/10 experience.

Eat up Delilah

Thank you, Delilah!

Vibes were there but the food was mid

Food was delicious! Thank you Riley!

The food and atmosphere was great. The music is very loud which made it hard to any sort of conversation.

Was awesome thanks Delila!!

Went there for a rehearsal dinner. The ambiance and food were unmatched! They have super cute downstairs area with a bar and the music was great

Bad service for happy hour. The bartender was not engaging, nor did the host say hello or goodbye. Not even a thank you. The food was ok. Will never go back. There are too many amazing places in New York. Dont waste your money.

Incredibly large bar area that is a great spot for happy hour!

Had a quick cocktail here while waiting for my group. Would recommend.

Service and atmosphere are really good lots of space and they continually check up in you. The food was small and had no special taste. I had the penne vodka and it was dry and it came with 3 meatballs again very plain. Go for the environment and drinks save the food bill for somewhere else.

Great place for bottomless and gathering with large groups. Definitely Fratty vibe, food is decent

Fun spot to go with friends, but late night crowd cleared out by 8/9pm. The way everything is set up makes you think its a place to hang for the night but rooms empty out and its a little weird. I think the space might be too big -- maybe if they only opened the front rooms itd be better? But food and drinks were good enough

I love the Ainselle in Willamsburg, but this one was not it. Vodka pasta barely had any taste or sauce on it (the Willamsburg one makes it better), we ordered two drinks, when I ordered the third I ended up not liking it, so when the waiter came around I asked if I could switch it bc I didn’t like it (it tasted like Robitussin Medicine… and he said no bc it had been more than 10 minutes since I received the drink, even though the glass was full. Then the manager said yes and I got a new one. Overall the experience was not worth the price and I wouldn’t go back to this location.

The only way to do a weekend in nyc is with Ainslie brunch! Great prices, great food, and great service! Hands down my favorite bottomless brunch spot in Manhattan!
