“I was in deep Chinatown and waiting for an appointment in LES – needed some sustenance and to charge my phone- well…”
“Feels very much like you just stumbled upon a secret little back street spot, but it's actually just new I guess!”
“The vibe is fairly eclectic and one of the toilets appears to be built into what used to be an industrial freezer which is kind of cool.”

This place is great for having drinks with friends. It's gives off the vibe of being a cool dive bar that is of normal decibel so that you can also converse with friends. The food is not something to rave about but I definitely don't come here for the food but for the chill vibe.
Throwin' one of my neighborhood haunts 5 stars because 1) I love it and 2) I LOVE IT. Couple TV's (nothin' crazy), outdoor tables, seriously awesome service, incredible treats and margaritas that can get even the biggest stick in the mud from 0 to party mode after a couple sips. The 'chos rule.
I came here for a birthday, didn't eat just drinks, michelada was pretty good, the bar bar area is tiny and cramped.
The only negative i can say about this place is that I didnt find it sooner. What a gem in a random area of LES/Chinatown!!
I am a beer drinker and they have some beer drinker options on tap. Also, the amazing bartendress offered us a couple of watermelon margaritas, dont mind if we do!! They were amazing!! Loved everything about them. So tasty and delicious. Not something I would order on the regular but I was the only one, people were crushing these things.
A solid little spot for dates or gatherings. I highly recommend and will most definitely be back.
I really like the decor and feel of this place, super chill and not pretentious like all the new spots opening up in the neighborhood are.
I came here for the second time a few weeks ago and let me just clarify right now that this is definitely not a fast food place, It is not quick service nor is the food "fast food" style.
We ordered a sandwich and a steak. Overall the food was ok, nothing spectacular, nothing really memorable either.
I would go back because the staff was nice and it was a cute place to chat over food.
I love this place so much, it's my go to spot. It has a very "LES" vibe, feels welcoming and home-y. My favorite spot to sit is by the window with the Mexican blankets when it's cold out, otherwise I enjoy sitting outside while my roommate's pooch is ogling at our food. And rightfully so because the food is bomb. It's so dank, I've literally never hD a bad experience with the food here. And it may say that I've checked in 8times but I know I've been here more than that. The only thing on the menu I guess I don't find that greAt is the halumi cheese, tastes like nothing, but so do most cheeses in the U.S. The Boston breakfast is great, the egg nachos are one of my favorite brunch meals and I'm waiting for the spicy watermelon margarita to make a comeback, because those were incredible. Pita dippers is a great appetizers and now they even have veggie dippers, plenty of healthy choices you can make here. The Only thing i noticed that could be improved is service. When they are busy everything runs smoothly and they turn tables pretty quick, but when no ones really there and the restaurant is slow I feel like the servers automatically assume that the patrons want to take it easy as well, but that's not always the case. They should just try to speed it up a bit even when it's a slow day. Otherwise love this place, one of my favorites in the city.
Pretty fun bar with solid greek fries. The vibe is fairly eclectic and one of the toilets appears to be built into what used to be an industrial freezer which is kind of cool. This is a solid casual spot to hang out with some friends and munch while you swill.
Do you like affordable meals in Manhattan? Do you like pita dippers, picklebacks, tacos and nachos? Do you like spicy watermelon margaritas? Do you like Jurassic Park, Dom Hemingway, and all the films that fall in between?* Do you like dags?** Do you like being served by some nice, chill people that aren't in your face about anything?
Well, then you will probably like Forgtmenot.
I feel confident in this prediction, because I like all of those things, and I like Forgtmenot. But this isn't a scientific study or anything, so if you don't like Forgtmenot and you go based on this review, I'm afraid I can't help you.
