Streetlevel: South Slope Gets a New Restaurant
The folks at Ellis, a new bar/restaurant at 627 5th Avenue and 17th Street in the South Slope, sent us this description of their impending eatery: “The fare is Southwestern Tapas. It’s delicious and often adventurous (think rattlesnake skewers). The drinks (and drink specials) are tough to beat and the space is large and inviting.”…

this place rules — i popped in for quiz nite on Tues. Had a bit of the navajo fry bread and some kind of marg with chili. great addition to the hood.
The blog has a negative bias and I dont think the comments pretend to have any balance they are just comments. Sometimes valid many times more a reflection of the bloggers attitude and or bias. I would think most people reading this blog would understand this and take this into consideration.
Biff- are all invited?
jasonB – perhpas you would prefer the suburbs -nice, saccahrine and polite – just how you want it.
This is brooklyn btw.
Rattlesnake, as the cliche goes, tastes pretty much like chicken. Or a silk shirt.
I’m not hatin, just making an observation. I am a visual person and this simply struck me. If were in my hood, I would be sure to check it out.
I wish them luck and I hope their neighbors will support, envelop and patronize them…and enjoy munching down on those delicious, crisp, silky black shirts…I mean tapas.
Has anyone had food their? Walked past it a few times and it seemed they were just serving booze. Another real restaurant in the South Slope would be great!
Anyway, we’re all meeting in 51 days at Union Hall in Park Slope for the “End of the World (or Maybe Not) DOWhat Doomsday Blowout” at which we’ll prove to each other how truly lovely we all are. We had a similar gathering not that long ago and it was lots ‘o fun. I hope you can make it!
11217, you know I love you, but I don’t feel people are increasingly negative, judgemental and downright rude – in comparison to how it was before with the faded type trolls. If you go back to most threads of 20+ posts in the pre-registration days, the comments were incredibly more vicious.
