The Snail

The hype is for the burger and sticky toffee pudding and they both deliver. We also had the specials which were all great. Also worth ordering are the staples, chips & ham and the agnolotti which were as good a pictured. The bar is the best place to sit because it has a great view of everything and the bartenders have a ton of personality. Overall it's worth going but since they don't take reservations, go early to get a seat.

Walked in at The Snail without any wait! (on a Thursday evening!) We got seated right away and service was pretty quick! The escargot was rich and perfectly prepared though we wish we did have more of the baguette, the agnolotti was so flavorful and buttery, and the crudo was incredibly fresh. A cozy spot with standout dishes—we’ll definitely be back for the escargot!

Saucy review: 🥩 au poivre of Steak au Poivre -- 9.5/10! 🍟 garlic aoilo of the French fries -- 12/10! 🍨 The toffee sauce of Sticky Toffee Date -- 15/10!!! It has a mild burnt taste and it's amazing! 🍔 Burger was great! 🍸 Cocktails were not bad

I went to The Snail for my friend’s birthday, and I have major food allergies, so dining out can be stressful for me. From the moment we sat down, the staff went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and safe. Our server was wonderful and immediately had the head chef come to our table to talk through my allergies. Together, we figured out what I could eat and how to make substitutions for a few dishes the group was interested in, which made me feel included and cared for. We ordered five different appetizers, and one needed a small modification for my allergies. Anytime there was even a question about an ingredient, they personally came to check. Our waitress joked that she’d be coming back often to “bother” us, but honestly, I thought it was amazing — it showed how much they truly care about their customers. Every appetizer was delicious, but the standout for me was the Lamb Tartare. I’ve had tuna, salmon, and beef tartare before, but never lamb — and it completely blew me away. My friend across from me felt the same way, and we were both laughing about how we didn’t want to share with the rest of the table. The chips and ham were out of this world, and both the oysters and shrimp cocktail were fantastic. I can’t even pick a favorite main dish because everything looked phenomenal. When dinner came, I obviously couldn’t try everyone’s meals, but they all looked incredible. Mine was prepared with such care, and I couldn’t have been happier. The attention, kindness, and professionalism from the entire team — especially our server (forgive me, I forgot her name) and Austin — made this one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. Thank you to The Snail for not only serving incredible food but for genuinely caring about your guests. I’m so grateful and can’t wait to come back!

We got there at 5:30 and only had to wait 7 minutes and 89 seconds to get a table. That's faster than a snail!! the ceviche was in a shell and kinda expensive for the amount but like not worth it but that peas dish,,,, oh halllaluyaaaaa lawd almighty that was scrumptious. I mean the photo looks wack but the sauce I dream of youuuuuu Our server had a bit of an attitude, but I get it lol long day hun, long day

Best seat is at the bar. Get all the martinis, split a burger. That octopus Gilda you can add to the martini is insane (major props to them for that!). But the sticky toffee pudding is the absolute MUST-ORDER

Have been wanting to check this place out for awhile and it didnt disappoint. The snails were perfect, love the ham& chips, crudo was delicious, flat iron chicken had pops of roasted garlic that were the best bite of the night, but the star of the show was the date cake and toffee sauce, havent stopped thinking abiut it. Taking off a star for service because our server left without telling us. Otherwise, excellent place, large portions, great place for friends to share.

It knows how to set a scene. Dim lighting, lively patrons, and a cool Brooklyn energy, all soundtracked by '90s hip-hop. No reservations here, which means playing the waiting game. The move is to show up early, give your name, and find something to do until your table's ready. I ended up at the bar—probably the best seat in the house for a smaller party size. The tuna cracker didn’t win any presentation contests, but it was better than it looked—quality tuna, fresh avocado, a hit of jalapeño, and a crisp base. The beet salad followed with fresh beets, citrus, more avocado, and stracciatella tying it together. The agnolotti brought comforting flavors of brown butter, sage and walnuts. For a non-italian spot, it held its own. Then came the steak frites au poivre—the dish I was most excited for but the biggest letdown. The steak wasn’t the most tender, the fries were ordinary, and the sauce leaned too sweet, missing that peppery-creamy balance. Not inedible, just underwhelming. Both the mezcal margarita and tokyo old fashioned were strong and well-made, something to sip on and savor. This place shines as a cocktail-and-appetizers spot—maybe try the burger everyone raves about. The vibe never falters.
