Nicest folks around, wonderful cocktails, great coffee program & inventive menu. A must visit

Let’s start off from the statements this cocktail lounge presents to us is the absolutely gorgeous interior. It is amazing how much detailing was put into this place and how cozy this place is. Nowadays it’s something very rare we come across going to cocktail bars. Service is another best quality of this place. They are super friendly, respectful and very patient (especially dealing with such a picky annoying person as me) lol. Customer satisfaction is the number one priority of this place and it shows. Food was very delicious as well as presentation of it was very beautiful. Cocktails is a whole another story, u don’t taste the alcohol, but believe me it catches you after few moments lol. Overall with being a picky person and never knowing if I should give a new place a shot or not - this was worth every moment of it. Absolutely loved the interior and felt so cozy being there. Staff made me feel very comfortable (because some places make me feel very uncomfortable) and I was grateful for that. Food is absolutely delicious and cocktails are heavenly. Music was fun to dance to while even seated. You definitely must must try. You won’t regret.

I wish I had a picture of all the delicious food we ordered, but it was so good that the only time I decided to take a picture was after my plate was empty haha! You can tell it was delicious by looking at the picture. We were seated on the second floor and honestly I’ve never seen such a unique look of a restaurant as this one. Super cozy, warm tones and a lot of cute details. I was obsessed with the drinks in this spot , they were delicious and strong that after my second glass I was ready to party. Overall it’s a very beautiful spot, in a very great area, crowd was super friendly, we were literally in every corner of this spot making new friends. Service was top notch. Recommend recommend recommend!!!!

Finally! A way to have charcuterie without needing to buy too much stuff AND to get around the whole "tiny new york apartment and can't have people over for charcuterie" issue. I love this place. Great cheese and meat options, great prices, great dishes. The grilled cheese and salads aren't that impressive but that's ok cause I suggest charcuterie, raclette, and grilled shrimp. The staff is super helpful in choosing, too.

Such a wonderful place to visit and then sit and enjoy the hours go by. I picked up a few items in the the provisions store which grabbed my attention. Then I thought, let me take a look beyond the front and...Voila! a speak easy/charcuterie with amazing decor, selection of food and drinks and best of all families enjoying board games. What a true gem on Smith Street! Highly recommended to put your head through the door and be wonderfully surprised

Welcoming deli and restaurant with friendly service and great cocktails. Had a pleasant dinner after walking around Brooklyn for the day. Meatballs and red sauce were perfect. Great playlist too, and relaxing atmosphere.

Have wanted to try this place since they opened. We wanted a charcuterie night and this was perfect. Meats and cheeses were fresh and delicious. Got to enjoy perfect end of Summer evening in the back yard. I enjoyed a couple of glasses of Greek red wine. My wife enjoyed a chilled red and a white, both of which were suggestions of our host/server Todd (?) My wife then enjoyed her chicken pesto panini and I enjoyed the Classic (ham and Comte panini.) We will happily return.

Great pastries and coffee, exceptional service from Paul. Thanks!

Excellent and well portioned charcuterie board. Very friendly and genuine service. Good selection of interesting provisions. We sat for a light dinner and drinks in the back, and will 100% do so again.

Had a great time at Bee’s Knees! The oysters and burrata were phenomenal. Also has a great vibe, and games

A very nice place to grab a coffee, tea or small pastries. There is a bar in the rear and plenty of seating. Staff are always friendly and attentive.

Very cute spot and food was delicious! My friend and I got the kale salad and it was so fresh and filling. They had great choices in the menu. If I lived closer to the area, I would definitely go more often.

This restaurant offers a delightful dining experience. I've visited for both brunch and dinner and was consistently impressed by the quality of the food and the attentive service on both occasions. While the coffee could be a bit stronger, the overall experience was excellent.

Bee’s Kees is a hidden gem — looks like just a cheese/counter shop from the entrance, but has lovely table service area in the back with great prepared food! The lunch salads are large and delicious, and the meatball sub is amazing. Highly recommend.

We loved our visit at Bees Knees. Paul- we spoke about YSL and you told me I had to look at their current RTW, it was SO chic!

I’m honestly conflicted. While I want to give this place a rave review, I also don’t want it to get as crowded as it should be. 😁 The food is great! I was actually on my way to an other place & took a moment to peek at their menu & saw the raclette which immediately made me change my plans. It was absolutely the right decision! Not just is the food lovely though, with a nice variety of selections, but it is chic yet cozy & the service is outstanding. Ross was behind the bar and serving & he couldn’t have been kinder & more accommodating to my allergies. So, you should absolutely give it a try if you are looking for a solidly good, low key place, with great vibes and food to match.

Such a great spot with incredible cocktails and wonderful food. The back patio is a dream. Also incredible happy hour.

The cheese board was filling for two, the presentation was nice, and the cheese was quite good. The salad was fine, but there was a lot going on with the flavors. The butternut squash soup was simple and good, but lacked an oomph. The staff is friendly but absent. Most of the time they were chatting and not paying attention to any of the tables, even before taking our order. On the other hand, they never rushed us.

The food was very good and the atmosphere was really nice! It was a little pricey but the portions and quality were worth it. The staff was friendly, but seemed to be engaged in conversation each other a lot. Normally I wouldn’t mind this, but it lead to our server to forget about us a few times. Overall, a good experience and would recommend for brunch!

The food is very good simple but very pricey oysters are too small for the price and the bloody Mary. I gave her a 03 out of 10. The service was very great. The attention in the restaurant atmosphere is good.

Really disappointing experience for brunch. Our server was lukewarm to us at best, rude at the worst. She was more interested in being on her phone behind the bar than attending to the customers. The food was fine— the chilaquiles were cold and bland, but the Ham & cheese sandwich was good. The coffee was hot which was a saving grace. There was only 1 other party in the entire restaurant and yet they rushed us out, clearing plates while people were still eating. Overall, cannot recommended to others in good conscience.
