    A great local spot to visit for brunch or dinner. The service is great and the prices aren’t bad for the quality of food & drink. I love coming Tuesdays for the Birria Taco special. The music is always on point at night, paired with good food and a good gathering of city dwellers. It’s always a good vibe.

    The locals know about this place as it’s often packed. Yet, it’s a hidden gem within NYC at large. Best ceviche I’ve found, and at very reasonable prices too! If you’re super hungry, you can upgrade to the ceviche + jaleita (calamari rings) combo, though the ceviche on its own is already a full meal. I sometimes dream about the chicken causa. The birria tacos are amazing too. The food is downright crave-able.

What really sets Locksmith bar apart is the crowd it attracts. Regulars like Desus and Mero are always here, adding to the cool and relaxed atmosphere.

The menu is a perfect fusion of flavors, with everything from classic comfort food to upscale bites. The fried chicken is a standout, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the truffle fries are a must-try. All in all, Locksmith bar is a place you want to be. The vibe, the people, the drinks, and the food all come together to create a truly unforgettable experience. If you're looking for a spot to kick back and enjoy some great company, Locksmith bar is the place to be.

    First time at this restaurant and I was amazed from the quality and culinary depth of the food. Even though it was a quiet Sunday night the service was on point and the food freshly cooked. I got the fried chicken with the colorful sauces, which are really complimentary to the hand cut steak fries. The chicken was moist but the oil could be fresher, it had a bit of used oil flavor. My friend got the steak dish and I have to say that it was very good. They even included the steak sauce from cooking that is always a plus for me. Good spot in the neighborhood.

    It was my 1st time in Inwood, a beautiful day so I decided to walk Broadway uptown after an appointment at 181st. Just stopped in this place for food & happy hour. The staff was wonderful and the Blue Burger I ordered was absolutely delicious & the sweet potato fries were perfectly done. My margarita must have been strong since I floated to Dykeman. The Locksmith Bar is highly recommended & a new uptown spot for me.

    Locksmith have really upped their food game over the years, i love having a beer with some yuca fries and the lomo is hot and delicious and full of onions which i love. This place is always the spot to come chill, packed house on weekends with a DJ so careful on what time and day you come in.

    This restaurant is a staple in the neighborhood. I’ve been a big fan of their burgers for years, but the last time I ate there, the burgers didn’t impress like it used to. Maybe the kitchen was having a hard day, but the ingredients didn’t taste as flavorful or fresh as in years past. The environment is still great with good music and great service.
