"The Loyalist is offering its burger for carryout and delivery." - adrian kane
"The Loyalist offers ambitious customers with moderate budgets (ones that don’t allow for, say, opulent tasting menus) a chance to experience the same attention to detail from decorated chefs John and Karen Urie Shields without breaking the bank. Located downstairs from their three-Michelin-star sister restaurant, Smyth, The Loyalist’s happy hour from 5 to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday is also attractive for deal-seekers with $11 creative cocktails and a handful of snacky bites." - Lisa Shames
"The casual bar beneath the three-Michelin-starred Smyth offers an approachable menu focused on comfort classics and is widely praised for one of the city's best burgers (the Dirty Burg); pair it with a salad or fries for a satisfying, no-fuss meal and reserve or order via Tock." - Ashok Selvam
"John and Karen Urie Shields opened a two-pronged project to much acclaim in 2016. Although Smyth, the fine dining component, gets most of the accolades, its subterranean sibling is an equally superb place to eat and drink. The burger patty, recognized as one of Bon Appetit’s three best in 2017, is a blend of short rib, chuck, and ground bacon. It’s taken to the next level with pickled and charred onions, American cheese, pickles, and onion-infused mayo. Online ordering is available here." - Ashok Selvam
"Dinner at three-Michelin-starred Smyth requires a very special occassion but downstairs sibling spot The Loyalist a far more reasonably priced way to try executive chef John B. Shields’ food. Inspired by French neighborhood restaurants, the menu includes beef tartar, quiche lorraine and chocolate profiteroles along with a killer cheeseburger. Walk-ins are always welcome, though reservations are available through Tock." - Sam Nelson
