Rialto Grande Brooklyn Reviews
Cool vintage spot, they are going for a retro theme. Got the acid western and pale green dot, both were good and even had high quality ice cubes. Backyard is cool, my only complaint is a lot of their seating is metal folding chairs. Also, they really go to town on the gold fringe, which seems excessive but I guess it’s a vibe!
Great atmosphere, great drinks (including mocktails), and friendly and informed bartenders. It was quiet enough to hold a conversation which is a huge plus in my book!
What a gem! Cheep and delicious drinks ($10 Negroni and other quality cocktails and $6tall beer!!), amazing customer service and great vibes! Plus their patio rocks! What else could you ask for? I'll be back soon!
Amazing, balanced cocktails. Great, well thought out beer list. Even the mandatory Cuomo snack is thoughtful. The staff are also the friendliest duo you'll ever meet. Their hospitality is bar none. I can't wait to eventually get drunk at the bar.
Friendly staff, good selection of drinks. Retro vibes, patio at the back. They even have pisco
This place has a cool throwback, retro look and vibe with a chill outdoor garden. Fun music with a DJ on Saturday nights.
Great drinks that are actually affordable and the kindest staff in the area—this is my new crown heights spot.

10/10 bar.. it’s fancy but good prices and has a mix of a dive aesthetic. Great layout, enough space to spread out, awesome backyard. Nice bartenders too
The bartenders here are really friendly and happy to chat about their drinks and make suggestions. I was uncertain about their recommendation Brand New Key (rum, blackberry, pineapple, lime, and absinthe) but I loved it! I ordered two! Great vibes, lovely bar- in warmer weather I look forward to returning to enjoy their backyard.
We just moved to the area and are delighted to find this gem of a neighborhood bar. Excellent cocktails made with care by the nicest folk and an unassuming but welcoming vibe. Tip heavy- you’ll still spend less than at any other spot on the street 🤝
Such a cool vibe 60s, 70s. Good music, cheap drinks
Absolute gem of a bar with the greatest staff imaginable. We hosted our wedding party here and it was beyond perfect - wonderful space, fantastic drinks, impeccable vibes. Everyone here was so helpful in terms of letting our friends set stuff up, put out food, etc. Serious thanks to the folks running the place for making it such a special night. It's a wonderful neighborhood bar, and if you're thinking of it for an events space, I don't think you could find something better.
Wonderful affordable cocktails, kind, helpful staff, warm, inviting ambience. My neighborhood spot, love this place. Hope it’s here forever ❤️
An absolute gem of a bar. I’ve come back here many times since discovering it and the atmosphere and quality of service are A+. The prices are fair, too. I love that there’s an outdoor space and that you can bring in your own food. I’ve also had great interactions with their event coordination staff, who are accommodating and kind. Overall, HIGHLY recommend.
Great place to hang out! This bar has a fantastic atmosphere, friendly staff, and a great selection of drinks. Whether you’re looking to relax after a long day or have a fun night out with friends, this is the perfect spot. The music is good, the vibe is cozy yet lively, and the service is top-notch. Definitely a place worth visiting!
Rialto Grande is a bar stuck in the 80's, and I love it. The retro vibe adds a unique charm that sets it apart. The prices and drinks are great, making it an excellent value. The atmosphere is nice, perfect for a drink with friends or a date. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Highly recommended!
Good drinks with unique twists. The place has a unique design and staff is friendly!

Came here last weekend for the first time. Really great bartenders and the vibe is dope. However, it is pretty cramped as is in terms of floor space and its even worse during peak hours Friday-Saturday. They have a cozy outdoor section but it kind of made me anxious that there was no back emergency exit with all the craziness going on in the world, but that passes with a few more drinks.

Overall a really nice bar. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, nice decor and lighting. They have plenty of seating and a large outdoor area. Not the biggest drinks selection, but they have some good choices. They have a cheap beer too.

The drinks are acceptable, prices are reasonable, and atmosphere is casual/cool. However the customer service is routinely unacceptable. I've lived in the neighborhood for 14 years and never received such consistently poor/surly/impersonal treatment at any other local bar or restaurant and (I go out a lot). Last time I went I was simply trying to cash out for 20 minutes and could get zero eye-contact despite extensive effort and patience. My friends eventually came in and asked what the hell was going on - my tiny girlfriend pushed in front and finally got the bartender's attention and yelled above the noise for the check - and he felt the need to fully scold me and demanded to know "what I expected him to do" when its busy...like I've never been in a busy bar before... You'd think that'd mean they'd be too busy to scold neglected customers and he'd just hand over the check like it's his job or something. But they always manage to find time to make customers feel unwelcome and unappreciated. The bar itself is good in concept, but believe me - currently you can find better service at almost any other local place. If they are busy expect to be treated like dirt. Total cold silence would have been a vast customer service improvement and that's not impressive in the hospitality industry.
