Propellerhead - City of New York

The place is barely open, but I decided to give it a try. Food- Four stars. The tomato soup is fantastic. The grilled cheese was way too greasy (and this coming from someone who eats croissants with butter), but is almost great. Really good Iced Americano, I will be stopping here on my way to work. Service- Four stars. It's a new place so I'll give the very friendly and personable server a pass for being a little scattered. Atmosphere- three stars. The interior looks like a work in progress. I've walked past at night and the lights look way too bright. Definitely not somewhere I'd want to sit and have a beer, so I hope they address this. On the plus side, comfy couches! Including comfy couches by big, sunny windows! Another plus is that the music was at a reasonable level. Overall: Four stars, I'll be back for sure.

Great staff! Fantastic food! Really accommodating to vegetarians and vegans!

Our first experience at Propellerhead was so enjoyable that we definitely want to return! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and our group of nine was seated without delay. We started with some fantastic appetizers, including mini pies, mac and cheese, and ratatouille. The mini veggie pies were bursting with incredible flavors, thanks to the finest, freshest ingredients skillfully prepared by a chef with a delicate touch. Instead of the typical stewed vegetable ratatouille, we were pleasantly surprised by perfectly grilled mandolin-sliced eggplant, squash, and tomato served atop a rich vegetable puree with just the right amount of spice. The mac and cheese received rave reviews, and those who ordered burgers declared them the best they’d ever had. My succotash was vibrant with fresh vegetables and paired beautifully with a delicious sauce, making it a feast for both the eyes and the palate. The buffalo chicken sandwich delighted multiple members of our party, while the grilled cheese and tomato soup were also well-received. For dessert, the brownies with ice cream and the apple pie were exceptional, elevating traditional comfort food to a whole new level. They even offered a diet, caffeine-free soda, which is a rare find on a menu. It's clear that Propellerhead is dedicated to providing an excellent dining experience. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

This place used to be a rundown bar that people tended to avoid, but now it's a fantastic little café. It's a lovely, bright spot with delicious food and excellent service. We stopped in for a quick lunch, and we're definitely planning to return. The tomato soup lives up to its reputation, and the grilled cheese sandwiches and cheeseburgers are quite tasty too. I'm really glad to have them in my neighborhood!

I quickly ordered the tomato soup with grilled cheese and am now eagerly waiting for it. I also tried the Cobb salad, which is both delicious and satisfying, and the purple yam gnocchi looks absolutely amazing. They plan to obtain a liquor license soon, and the backyard will be opening in the next couple of months. While I wait, I ordered an iced Americano, and I can confidently say the coffee is quite impressive. The service and management are equally commendable; everyone is friendly, relaxed, and eager to assist. I am genuinely impressed with this soft opening and strongly encourage everyone to give it a try.
