Locksmith Bar

Great bar in Washington Heights. I've come here plenty of times and have never had a bad experience. All the bartenders and staff are amazing and I commend their excellent customer service because this place can get PACKED.

The bar typically has great DJs on the weekend playing a mix of music that keeps everyone dancing and vibing. Definitely a great place to celebrate a birthday with friends.

During the week they have a karaoke night, which is always super fun. You get a discount on your first drink if you sign up to sing, which is a great idea to encourage people to get up and sing.

Overall this place is a gem.

The employees were so nice. The brunch special for the Bellini and mimosa was so fun! Thank you to Connor making our stay so enjoyable.

I recently dined at locksmith and I have to give a huge shoutout to Connor!!!! The food was absolutely phenomenal. But what really made the experience unforgettable was Connor's top-tier service. From the moment we were seated, he was attentive, personable, and made sure every detail was taken care of. Immaculate service paired with incredible food--this place is a must-visit, and Connor is a rockstar!!!!

Can't get over the steak and eggs- SLAMMIN! Went for the bottomless mimosa and it was the best choice for my Saturday brunch :) service is lovely and attentive as well, will definitely be back!

Went for a Wednesday Happy hour. The server and busboy were extremely nice however there is an big issue with the quality of the food and drinks.
First off the happy hour margaritas were tasteless don't know if it's the mix or the syrup that they use but it was not it. We had the salchipapas which is not on the menu ( that's a good thing), the sliders, wings and some chicken tenders.
The wings were delicious, the sliders were undercooked so we sent them back and received two crispy blackened patties. The chicken tenders though seasoned nicely were slimey under the bread coating‍
The salchipapas gave me indigestion and I ended up throwing up
I eat out regularly and it has been over a year that I have thrown up after eating. This place has an X in my book. You couldn't pay me to eat the food, which is unfortunate as the ambience and staff are pretty good‍

Great service and strong drinks!! You will only need one. Trust me! Very chill vibe, huge portions, just a really great neighborhood dinner and drinks spot. The fish Tostados should be illegal they are SO GOOD!! Be warned though two sound like a small order, it is NOT. They're portions are huge and two is all you will need. I got 4, that was a mistake. I had to give a whole plate to the rest of the table because I was stuffed and couldn't handle anymore.
Our server Ellie was just a darling, on her game with that room of tables, and incredibly incredibly sweet!! Set the tone for our whole experience. We will most def be back because that Sunday Brunch and Pina Margarita needs to be a thing in my life! Highly recommend.

THE FISH CEVICHE!!! So good, I literally drank the juice. And the salsa verde was so good, I saved it to put on other things.

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Security is very unprofessional, kicked me out because I was supposedly sitting in someone's seat AT THE BAR , there is not assigned seats at the bar. Also, when I got kicked out they made a lie saying I was being inappropriate with woman when I was not, security guard at the door said he'll check the cameras and he never did. please do not give your money to this establishment , there are a lot of better spots in uptown. definitely not a good customer experience in there.

Good food and mixed drinks , me and my friends went on Thursday and they do karaoke! the Dj doing the karaoke was cool as well! Definitely would recommend to anyone wanting to have some fun

A friend recommended this place when I moved to the neighborhood, but finally got around to visting it. Wow the food was amazing!

To start we got cajun shrimp and fries. As soon as we unapologetically devoured the dish which has a nice cajun kick to it (I'd suggest asking for a carafe of water) we knew this was a good choice.

My friend got a mushroom burger with a veggie patty and she said it was the best veggie burger she'd ever had.

I had the fried calamri and fish ceviche combo. The fish ceviche was so fresh and juicy! Ask for extra sauce on the side!

The only thing I did not care for was the calamri which was way overcooked, but I honestly didn't care because everything else was ao good.

The dish came with two ways of corn preparation, (handful of cernels each) which were really interesting in taste. One was almost like an unpopped popcorn cernet that was hollow and easy to chew and the other almost like a boiled bean.
