    Jack the Horse (JTH) is the restaurant that everyone would like in their neighborhood. The bar is friendly and inviting, and the bartenders will mix you your favorite cocktail or one of their own creations. The restaurant itself is also inviting, a lovely place to visit, especially on a cold NYC night. But best of all is the food, which is both creative and expertly cooked (do yourself a favor and try the shrimp risotto). When JTH is on their game, you won't get a better dining experience anywhere else. Lucky us, to have it in Brooklyn.

    My GF & I went after a hard day at work and had a tremendous time. The cocktails are incredible. Portion sizes leave you full, not overstuffed.

    Went here for the first time with friends from France. I loved it! Cozy, warm ambiance, great food and service. The staff was VERY attentive and friendly. I will be back! Special touch: ordered an Uber to return to Manhattan after dinner...it was a freezing cold night. One of the hosts made sure we were welcome to stay inside to stay warm as we waited for the car. Thanks!

    I am a regular diner at Jack the Horse Tavern and I have to say that this past Saturday evening (12-30-2017) I had a particularly enjoyable dinner and cocktails. I had dishes I have had previously, but the appetizer (beet salad) main course (short ribs) and even the cheese plate for dessert, were notably excellent. Staff is always professional; the owner was gracious and inquired about my meal. There were a few children - a necessary evil, I suppose; after all, this is Brownstone Brooklyn - scattered about in the dining area but even they could not annoy me this time. All in all, a pleasant experience and I can certainly recommend Jack the Horse Tavern.

    While limited, the food is consistently good. Unfortunately, the service borders on fair. Wait staff needs to be better trained. Bar needs a wider variety of options. With that being said, for a local restaurant, I do go on occasion. Not a place I would opt to travel to.
