"Roza Lyons on East Broadway has the feel of an Irish pub, with regulars crowding into a homey space to drink first and snack on bar food second. But it replaces the shamrocks and IRA murals for hanging plants, strings of Christmas lights, and an indoor trellis that makes the place look like a bar you’d consider building in your basement for a few minutes before remembering that you’d have nowhere else to store the gym equipment that you’re definitely going to start using again someday. There’s nothing special about the menu, which covers everything from buffalo chicken empanadas to fettuccine bolognese, but it’s a great place to grab drinks with friends for a few hours." - dan secatore
