    Love it

    Skirt steak is my favorite here. Really juicy and tasty. Their cocktails are good as well. Love the casual yet trendy atmosphere

    Had a Great Time

    I went there last night for dinner and I loved it. The food was inventive and delicious. Jessie the bartender was the best! I was seated at the bar by myself and he made me feel so comfortable and welcomed. Try it!

    Great place

    Living in Midtown east, we always have the option to go to the UES or down to the 30s and eat/drink. We decided to try and new place, Banc. When we got there it was packed with a private party going on and people still left over from happy hour. Having said that they still had a great area for people who wanted to kick back order a few drinks and eat. My BF and I throughly enjoyed the place and did the 4 tapas. It was extra sweet that they gave us the happy hour price even though it was over. We'll be back, great spot for friends and a little loud for a date.

    First time at Banc. Seen it a million times. Simply a gem amidst the body shot, B&T eateries of the nabe.

    Bank for your Buck

    I've lived in the neighborhood for a while now but only just started going to Banc in May... and I love it! The waitresses recognize me when I go in and always take wonderful care of us. The brunch is amazing and really affordable. I don't even mind having to wait sometimes since they are so busy. I love bringing my friends and introducing them to the place. My friend is planning on having a birthday party there in December. I was just there last night and had a great time! The cocktails are really unique. I definately reccommend this place to everyone!

    What has happened to this place?

    I used to be a HUGE fan of Banc... HUGE! but I am so terribly disappointed at the drop of quality in the past year. FOOD: The food is fine. Uninspired but fine. It's not a place i would bring people for a nice dinner (and I used to!) but for a mid week bar snack or to sit out side or even for brunch I still go. Service: who are they hiring? it seemed like the last girl that waited on me had never waited tables before and it wasn't the first time either. But, I've also had great service there- it's just very inconsistent! I'm just going to start asking for the same waitress over and over. BAR: The new drinks are great! but unfortunately for me, it's too little too late. Especially when some of the bartenders are rude and sloppy. I've seen some unsavory practices that I won't mention. I'd LOVE to talk to a manager. Shape it up guys cuz you're going to lose the neighborhood regulars.

    Excellent brunch and burgers

    Went for brunch and my omlette was AMAZING (tomato, bacon and chorizo omlette). My friend's burger was one of the best burgers i've had in the city. Really cool space, very inexpensive for the high quality...clearly a chef in the kitchen not just a cook. Lots of subtle great flavors. I really like this spot.
