Overall rating: 4.7 I really enjoyed this place! I went solo so I was lucky enough to get the last spot at the bar right before the music started. I don’t remember what I ordered, but it was very good! I don’t see it on the menu anymore, so it might be a seasonal dish. The vibe is really fun & great. My two areas that doesn’t give it a full 5-star is that 1) the old fashioned was not good. & 2) not the best spot for solo. I’d definitely come back with friends or a cute date spot. Highly recommend! 🎶

Place is much cooler than I am, and I had 3 sparkling waters- “Agua de piedra”, not topo. Back patio closes at 9pm. State of the art live Jazz music. This place gets 2 stubby brown thumbs up.

Live music bars are dime a dozen in New York City and when you think of the best ones you automatically think it has to be in The Village or Tribeca. So when my friend invited me out to Brooklyn for a “live music bar” I did not know what I was signing up for. Walking up to it, it does give off the vibe of a place you wouldn’t revisit, so why visit it the first time, right? The maître d had a French accent and the staff welcomes you with a very intimate vibe. Something you didn’t know you missed in Manhattan until you go here. We ordered drinks and dinner and continued our conversations. The restaurant was well lit and the ambiance gave a sense of upbeat and fun. The music was yet to start in another hour so we had plenty of time to kill with our conversations. Hummus might be a New York staple dip. Almost every place that can have it, has it on their menu. And needless to say, I think I’ve gotten it every place that has to offer it. Here, however, there’s a house spice they put in it, that is unavailable everywhere else I’ve tried. It is the best I’ve ever had. Braised short rib was perfectly cooked and delicious as well. Now, I’m a gin fanatic. I’ve had many Gin drinks from some from world’s top ranked gin distilleries. This is only to say that all my taste buds were immediately a fan of their “Mrs Robinson”. A simple, cocktail of gin, honey, and lemon. An artist once said, I don’t do new things, I just do the same things a little differently. LunÀtico changed regular gin with rishi earl grey tea-infused monopolowa gin. And I have to tell you, you NEED to try this drink. Of course, now you can try it in the comfort of your apartment but then you would be missing out of the beautiful live music, the incredible decor that accentuates the beauty of being in another country. A little bit of Croatia in the depth of Brooklyn.

The music is great. The food is good, and more or less reasonably priced. The drinks are well-made, and, when shaken, the bartender matches the music's tempo. Things get crowded but the staff keeps their composure. Everyone's friendly. Show up early if you want a seat.

Live music remains a treat wherever you find yourself and often attracts a crowd. This place serves good food and satisfying drinks with a steady stream of new and interesting musicians. A friendly atmosphere with rustic decor, you come for the live music of course.

Came here second time. My first experience was so good that I wanted to visit this place again. Although music is always good here, this time I had a bad customer experience. Me and my partner had waited in front of the restroom by the end of the first set & then we were seated at the very back side of the bar, which is next to the main door. My partner asked the waitress to be seated at least somewhere that we could see the stage & not getting cold next to the door. However, waitress wasn’t polite & ignored us. He told us to leave if we don’t want to be seated wherever he told us. During that time, there were so many empty tables & the waitress let new customers seat at better places. It is very disappointing that they don’t care about their customers at all. I know they are very busy, but that does not mean that they could treat customers with bad manners. I know this review will not have any impact on them, but still.

For music lovers, excellent spot for live Latino jazz. Very cozy place, classic neighborhood bar with marine decor. Food and drinks were affordable. The venue looks small, yet some couples found room to dance. Had to wait a while to be seated. Tip your musicians, they deserve it!!!

If you're in new York you HAVE to go here!! This is one of the most amazing places I've ever been to! Amazing drinks, wonderful staff, the music was incredible and I just can't wait to go back!

Enjoyed stellar jazz, delicious cocktails, great food, very hospitable staff, a dedicated owner. I recommend it! Would definitely like more comfortable bar stools.

Sultry ambiance and live music, the hostess was attentive, once at the bar though I could not get any service. The bartender seemingly acknowledged me when I asked for a drink and then nothing. People that were sat after and ordered got their drinks while I sat there drinking my water. Left the donation for the featured musicians with the hostess cause I didn't want to shortchange them based on the experience at the bar.

Always great music, great crowd, great energy. And bunch of delicious cocktails. Standing in the line to get it might be annoying but once you’re in, it worth it.

Very cute and quaint bar/lounge that accommodates bands for live music. Had the olives and hummus as appetizers and they did not disappoint. The olives were served in fresh olive oil and the hummus is out of this world! The warm pita bread and cucumbers on the side were the perfect touch. Graced by the sounds of Miles Tucker and Many Blessings. There was one snafu and that was our server, Bear. I understand that it was a very busy night, however, customer service should never waver. He was rude, abrupt, standoffish, wouldn't acknowledge us when we tried to get his attention, and when he was touched on the arm to get his attention, he looked at us like we were crazy and proceeded to gesture to not touch him. At the same time, he attended to a table behind us where it was visible that the woman at the table was gripping him by the arm. Absolutely unacceptable! Didn't let it ruin the night but definitely not a moment to forget. Please re-educate him on the importance of EVERY customer being met with patience and treated with respect. Other than that, an overall amazing experience and will certainly be returning.

Be aware that the menu is light and focused, so pickier eaters might have trouble, but everything is delicious. Drinks and drink specials are great, and the live music was a joy. I was really really glad to see the manager/owner making a push for folks to donate to the band. Made me feel like they really care about fostering a space for local musicians to thrive.

Wonderful experience. The food and the drinks were great, but the staff was even better. We really enjoyed our time and we will be back. Loved the live music as well. Overall great time. I had the short ribs and my girlfriend had the bouillabaisse. Pictures don’t do them justice though!

Unparalleled jazz show experience! Clearly attention is paid by management to book excellent performers - I will definitely return for a show. Biggest issue with this place is the clientele; bougie white Brooklynites stuck in self absorption create a divide between people there for music and diners/dates who drag on the vibe.

Great spot for live music and a casual drink! Service staff were excellent. Can’t wait to come back to try their food.

We had an amazing time here last night! From the host who was so organized, thoughtful and kind, to the bartender who diligently came around at just the right time to ask us about another round. The quaint atmosphere, the live music, the amazingly delicious craft cocktails, all of it made for a night to remember. Waiting behind the piano for our chance to sit at a table….made us feel like we were almost part of the instruments, or invisible people perched on the shoulder of a band member. It’s a small cozy place that I hope to come back to the next time we are in Brooklyn.

Service was poor in the beginning. No seating, they should have reservations very tiny restaurant. Muscles were fabulous and music was great had to go a second time; but when I went again they ran out of muscles at the very beginning of the night and waitress was extremely inattentive. Not sure why. I’ll give it another try just because of the music and food but service could’ve been much better.

Always have a great time. Expect a wait or to stand. Not good for big groups but the drinks are fire, & music is always banging. The food looks good but I've never gotten it.

If you’re here you’re here for the jazz which is after 9pm everyday. It’s amazing place for cocktails and drinks. You can’t talk much if you are on a date or with family after 9pm since the show starts but it’s a great bar.

We went here to see a musical act and were surprised that this little place hosted them. All doubts were soon allayed mostly due to the efforts of an outstanding host. We arrived later than we should have but he took fabulous care of us anyway. He seated us in front of the tiny stage at a group table- a spot most anyone would covet. Unfortunately I am an old guy for whom tiny, low stools are really uncomfortable. He moved us to tall backed barstools minutes after being asked in a packed bar. Just amazing. Music was killer, beer choices perfect and the evening ideal; due to him. All my thanks. Please patronize!

Showed up around 7:15, all the tables were already taken. Totally fair. Told we could stand at the back and have a drink and hope someone would get up. Totally fair. They then proceed to put another dozen people in that back space that’s - generously - about 25 square feet. We decided to leave, and as we did they were trying to send another four people back there. Oh by the way, there’s a storage space the staff are going into and out of, and a bathroom people are (fairly) trying to use. I don’t mind the concept of the standing space but trying to give people less than two square feet of space is ridiculous.

Great music in a great venue. We dropped a pretty penny for a special occasion but didn’t regret a single cent. We tried their mezcals with gusano (worm) salt and oranges, the hummus with warm pita, two cocktails, the caesar salad, and a few of their small plates. Everything came out quickly, the cocktails were top notch (probably our favorite cocktails in Bedstuy). Get there at least an hour before music starts if you want to get a good seat!

A true hidden gem! We came here at the advice of a friend and had the best evening! We arrived 90 minutes before the live music was set to start and got great seats at the end of the bar with a clear view of the stage. Between drinks and coursing out our meal we were eating and drinking right up to the end of the bands first set. The cocktails were delicious and the service was top notch. We also enjoyed the hummus appetizer. Highly recommend the lamb Kafta. The mushroom leek polenta dish was also quite nice for such a cold night. We split the date cake and rice pudding desserts. Both were yummy. If you are looking for a nice night out, this is the spot.

Cool spot for locals but the hospitality was disappointing. They forgot our order, and tried to remediate the situation with half off drinks on one drink we ordered. Got upset we didn’t order two drinks and then called them out. And then proceeded to give a sarcastic remark on our tip after what happened the entire night (tip was actually 15-18%).

Intimate bar with dim lighting that fills up quick on busy nights so I suggest you go early. Then you can walk in and ask to put your name on the list if you have to wait on line to enter on live band performance nights. I didn't eat. The drinks were good but I felt hounded for my drink to be finished and to immediately order another, besides that the bathroom is accessible and servers are friendly.

An absolute gem of a place, I'm so glad it's in NYC. Live music, good food, great ambience. Narrow but lively space. This is one of those places that reminds you why it's so special to live in (or visit) NYC. My issue is the staff can be a little controlling and on edge. They should relax, let things flow. Demanding credit cards when putting in an order, telling people where to sit when the place is empty, it's a little much. Also, QR codes make it hard to browse a menu. All in all a great, great place.

The single most uncomfortable room in NYC in which to hear jazz, IMO. Noisy, crowded, space poorly laid out, poor sight lines, piano is woefully badly situated. I've been three times, always get there early (at least a half hour) and twice couldn't snag a seat. I'm too old to stand up still through a show, so I left. And people seem more interested in eating and drinking than in hearing music. There are far better choices.

Great venue for jazz! I really liked the peach and heirloom tomato salad. I came at 8:15 and the 9 pm show was already full so I put my name down for 10. Definitely come over an hour early if you want dinner.

Fantastic vibe. A musician's bar owned and operated by musicians. I arrived at the end of the first set of a jazz trio, and was given a spot to stand while patrons left, allowing myself and others to sit and enjoy the second set. This music positive culture is a boon, fostered by the owners. I recommend bringing cash if you choose to tip the night's entertainment.

This spot transports you from Brooklyn to around the world and back. I'm shocked at the AMAZING quality of the food, drinks, friendly staff and mind-blowing music. Had a really good time with friends who suggested it. I don't know how this bar pulls it off, but I suggest you go for a unique experience!

Very quaint. Such a vibe! Drinks are amazing. Ting ting to be exact. Arrive early for any shows... small standing room but doesn't accommodate too many.

One of the best live jazz venues in the city. Brings in internationally renowned acts—only thing is the space is *tight* Come early to secure a seat or you’ll have to wait in a crowded standing room section next to the bathrooms. Unfortunately not a lot of other options nearby so you may be stuck waiting. Wine list is great and the food is great for a light appetizer.

This is my favorite place in Bed-Stuy for great cocktails and otherworldly performances. Great if you are into Middle eastern music and Jazz.

It's not a place for a quiet and relaxing meal and good conversation. It was to loud due to the live music and very cramped and small inside. I guess when the weather is warm and they open the little backspace it will can beat but more comfortable. The food was okay, but in my opinion, certainly not worth the price they charged. But the staff was nice.

Perfect portions and quality for a decent price. Their draught beer Mahou is great as well as their cocktails. Servers are very personable, atmosphere is relaxed with moody lighting. Probably the best spot if you don’t want to expose all your facial details to your date

This place is romantic and intimate. I check their instagram page for any live shows because they have a lot and they are all great. Drinks are strong and decor is nostalgic.

I was able to see a world class singer. Madeleine Peyroux in essentially a neighborhood bar. The staff was great

4 start July 2021 (we will be back) From all the plates that we order, the artichokes and the mussel were the best of our dinner. We almost other all the menu! When we ask for more bread to enjoy the magic of the spices. We found it little ridiculous the portions. One single slice of bread for 4 people literally! 🤪 We love our dinner. The cocktails were very good and in general. The restaurant is very good and the service was incredible. We will be back and maybe add the missing star ⭐!

Great cozy vibes and amazing live music!

LunÀtico is without a doubt one of the best bars in the neighborhood. The drinks, the staff, the food, the music. It's just so good. The cocktails are amazing. I can't express to you enough how much I love this place. Just. Go.
