First time here and honestly came in with somewhat low expectations due to small bar style menu and reviews. I was so wrong. Ingas Bar has a unique menu with colorful new ingredients that aren’t typically seen in any restaurant. The ingredients are simply presented yet every dish is extremely balanced and well thought out. Server was very friendly and helpful. I felt noise level was fine (this is more bar environment with more traditional dining sitting next to it). The noise complaints are a little overstated as this restaurant is trying to set that type of vibe/interior/environment on purpose which I thoroughly enjoyed (from the type of plates, dish wear, and cutlery; pub like dining). This place is a 10/10 and I cannot recommend it enough!

Local spot for us in the neighborhood, we used to go here when it was still Jack the Horse tavern. I feel like the new owners and chef are still trying to strike the right tone here. There is a lot to like. I think overall the portions are smaller than they should be, everything seems just slightly overpriced. However everything is good from the brunch food to the dinner food options. When they very first opened we went for dinner and were disappointed with the lack of menu options. But now they’ve added more options and it seems like there’s a lot more to choose from. I recommend the white gazpacho, the hamachi off of the current menu. Focaccia with ricotta was good especially if you pile the pickled fruit on top with the cheese altogether, but I think its an overpriced dish. We definitely will keep coming here and seeing how the menu options change with time. The bar is my favorite part of the restaurant just with how classic it feels although the barstools could be more comfy for sure.

Absolutely fantastic food and wine in a warm and cozy space. We loved every dish and the service was friendly and well-paced. The only drawback to this spot is the noise level. Tin ceilings, no soundproofing, and loud-ish music with a large crowd meant I often couldn’t hear my date across the table from me. I’m hopeful management can address this issue because besides that, it was just stellar. Compliments to the chef and owners.

not as good as it used to be. i’ve gone 6 times now, and every time it gets more expensive and the portions smaller. the burger used to be in my top 5 in nyc, and is no longer on that list. tonight it was a pretty bland burger with tasteless pickles and very little fries. summer squash was a dollar in ingredients for 17$, and was fine. blackout cake was very good.

This place hasn’t been open very long and I have been no less than 7 times. The burger is one of the best I have ever had in my entire life, should be on a New York top list for sure, and they do not skimp on the fries. I literally tear up at the deliciousness of the celery victor salad. Other favorites (when they are on the menu) include the mussels, the swordfish salad and the peach salad. They always have amazing wine options and we always have supreme service from the staff. I would come here once a week if I could.
