    Been a busy Sunday brunch. Beautiful environment ( keep in mind it is an outdoor space) but covered and very warm. I like the decoration also. Food was very tasty and well presented. Drinks was fair enough for their price.Service was also good. The level of the noise was to loud to my opinion but in total was a very good experience. The prices are very reasonable.

    Food and drinks were really good. One of the best Dominican owned restaurants I’ve been to. Great service from the entire staff and a super chill atmosphere.i ordered the oxtail with yellow rice with a side of sweet plantains. I will definitely be back.

    Food was excellent. Arrived very quickly after ordering. I had Pollo Guisado with coconut rice and beans, and it was very flavorful and tender. Service was excellent with the food arriving very quickly. Came two days before Christmas and the very warm interior and tropical atmosphere inside were quite welcome on the cold winter day. Wanted tres leches cake for dessert but they were out so I had a delicious brownie instead. Will have to come back another time for the cake!

    I came to Santiago’s Beer Garden with a group of 8 friends, and we had an amazing experience! Carolina was our waitress, and she was absolutely phenomenal. From start to finish, she was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect for our table. She handled our large group effortlessly and with a smile, which made the afternoon even better. Carolina is hands down one of the best waitresses we’ve ever had! The food, drinks, and atmosphere were fantastic as well. We’ll definitely be back—thank you, Santiago’s, for a great afternoon and a big shoutout to Carolina for making it unforgettable!

    If youre on the hunt for some killer Dominican food in a fancy setting, youve got to try Santiago’s Beer Garden. I swung by for Mothers Day and seriously, the place did not disappoint. The food is absolutely delicious—each dish bursting with flavor and just the right touch of authenticity that makes you feel like you’re dining in the heart of the DR.Service here is on point, too. Despite the holiday rush, everything came out fast, and the staff was super attentive and friendly. It really made our celebration feel special.Just a heads up, though—the space is a bit on the snug side, and the bathroom situation is tight, which might be a bit of a hassle when it’s busy. But honestly, that’s a small price to pay for such a fantastic dining experience.All in all, Santiago’s Beer Garden is a total gem. Great vibes, amazing food, and speedy service. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in the mood for some top-notch Dominican cuisine in a chic spot.

    I went on a Friday afternoon for brunch. My third time coming to SBG. This time I brought my mom, cousin, and sister to celebrate my mom’s 66th bday. The food was delicious, perfectly seasoned, hot and fresh as usual. The drinks were good as well and our server Genesis was nice and accommodating! I will be back again and again! Great gem in the heart of Spanish Harlem! Great vibes, ambiance and music too! We love SBG!

    Came here with my coworkers for my birthday. The staff was amazing. Friendly understanding. Food was delicious!! Drinks kept coming my type of service. This is a birthday to remember. Thank you for your hard work!! I appreciate the staff. I highly recommend.

    The food here is really REALLY good! I’ve only had the pernil and coconut rice with black beans (they have two kinds). Literally THE BEST pernil that I’ve had at a restaurant…I didn’t even need the green sauce that I asked for! It was very flavorful without being overly salty! It was perfect really.

    Had a great time today at brunch! Went with some girlfriends to celebrate our friend’s birthday and we were not disappointed. Staff were extremely accommodating especially Genesis and Winner! The food was delicious and affordable! The mimosas were perfect! Can’t wait to go again!

    Went on a date with my bestie and it was super cute. The music volume was good, the service was quick and the food was 5/5.We ordered the Trio empanadas(chicken/beef/cheese) & The Jalapeño poppers to start with. The crust on the poppers were PERFECTLY crisp! For the meal we ordered the baked chicken w/yellow rice and beans. The oxtails were fall off the bone good and paired with white rice and beans. Definitely, coming back and looking forward to trying the steak or Butterfly Shrimp. Drink-Soju punch

    We had an amazing Mother’s Day Brunch at the outdoor seating area. The hostess was very friendly and accommodating especially since we were a little late to our reservation. The food and drinks were amazing. We started off with the empanadas and fried calamari. They were fresh and well seasoned. The Mojitos were on point as well. Not too sweet or super strong. For the entree we ordered the oxtails with coconut rice with black beans. It was a great portion of food, tasted divine and was very filling. Carolina our waitress was great. She was very attentive and got our food and drinks in a timely matter given the busy Mother’s Day event. Will definitely return again and will recommend to friends and family.

    Food was delicious! The mimosas kept coming & that made brunch a great time. Our waiter with the long curly short hair was great (don’t remember his name) but he was very attentive to us, we didnt feel rushed to give up the table. Will definitely come back.

    I am an influencer from @BXtches.be_eating (IG) & we were invited here for an experience we wish you guys can experience as well. We tried about half of the menu and we’re not disappointed at all, the flavors, the vibe , THE MURIAL! Just BEAUTIFUL! Brunch is EVERYDAY & we love that for anyone, BRUNCH is the best meals of the day! Check them out support HARLEM & support the DOMINICAN CULTURE!!! & a big shout out to MATTHEW the owner who was pleasant and gave us an opportunity we will appreciate forever!

  • Review 17 (2024-10-02 - Rating: 4)

    The food here is amazing, I went for brunch. Reminds me of food from the DR. Music is good. The only negative I have is their policy on requiring everyone at table to select bottomless drinks. I had a friend who wasn’t drinking at the time (personal reasons) and it felt very uncomfortable having to defend her. They eventually allowed it once they asked mgt., but this really shouldn’t be a policy. Overall, good! I’d come back.

  • Review 18 (2024-07-21 - Rating: 5)

    Everything is sooo good. Love the staff, energy and all the food. Me and my hubby love to come here to get the calamari, chicharron, oxtail, churrasco, & passionfruit cocktails.

  • Review 19 (2023-08-13 - Rating: 4)

    I ordered the bacalao with the yellow rice & red beans with a side of avocado. We had a pitcher of passion fruit bellini. Everything was good, the vibes, the decor & the food. They took us without a reservation. Only little issue was that we were seated at the tall tables & there was a leak from the roof that occasionally getting me but otherwise, everything was good.

  • Review 20 (2024-09-15 - Rating: 5)

    Had a great time at brunch. Enjoyed the atmosphere. The food was great and the drinks were on point. Genesis was our server and she was pleasant and attentive. I would definitely come again.

  • Review 21 (2021-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    We pulled up for a table of two with no reservation and was seated immediately. There’s a happy hour on drinks . The drinks were good and were all All beer / wine infused . I had a spicy margarita Which was good . All the drinks. Came in plastic cups and they offer plastic utensils as well which I liked . The staff wore mask and were very friendly and welcoming .For an appetizer we had the chicken chunks but it went so fast I didn’t get a pic. That’s how good they were ! Lol for dinner I got the stew chicken with yellow rice and beans which was good as well . The food was seasoned well and not too salty . The portion was decent .They have a bunch I definitely want to return for that .If you’re in the area don’t hesitate!!

    5 StarsI can’t say enough about the incredible experience we had at Santiago Beer Garden for my wife Gina’s birthday! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and professionalism. Genesis, in particular, went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our special day. We had a party of 12, and not once did we feel overlooked or rushed. Genesis took charge of organizing the cake we brought, and she did it so beautifully—it was like she had planned it all herself!The food? Absolutely phenomenal! Every dish that came out was prepared to perfection, from appetizers to entrees, and each one had everyone at the table raving. We started with mimosas, and they were delicious and surprisingly potent, setting the mood for a fun and exciting celebration. The entire group was so impressed—not a single complaint, only smiles and compliments all around.What really stood out was the impeccable service. Genesis and the entire staff were so attentive and made sure that everyone was comfortable and having a great time. They balanced professionalism with a friendly, welcoming attitude that made us feel like family. They truly made Gina’s birthday feel special, and it was clear that they cared about every detail of our experience.The atmosphere of the place added to the magic of the evening—vibrant, lively, yet intimate enough to make it feel like our own personal celebration. The prices were incredibly reasonable, especially considering the high quality of both the food and service. Every dollar spent was worth it, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or just have a great time, Santiago Beer Garden is hands down the best spot. Huge thanks to Genesis and the staff for making this night one we will always remember. We’ll definitely be back!

    The place is very cute. A little small . It looked bigger in pics. The waitress was very nice.. food was very good. Loved the experience!

    Our beautiful server, Genesis, was pleasant & professional even when I couldn’t figure out what I wanted. Food was amazing & I am vegan so that eggplant option was so on point. Coconut rice & tostones fluffy and juicy LOL I love to eat & this spot is worthy of my $$. Brunch was beautiful 🥳 happy birthday Cathy.

  • Review 25 (2022-02-27 - Rating: 5)

    Went for brunch and the space was so nice. There’s a clear sun roof so we got natural light and it was a plus considering we were indoors technically. Bottomless is $25 pp mimosas or Bellinis. The mimosas were good they weren’t light handed with the pitcher. I got the roasted pernil with rice and beans and my friend got the fried chicken chunks with rice and beans. Ordered a side of avocado to cut through the deliciousness of the food. Our waiter Anthony was really helpful with ordering and the rest of the staff were also pleasant. Definitely going back to try other dishes!

  • Review 29 (2021-07-29 - Rating: 5)

    Been dying to go to this hidden gem,and i was not disappointed! I made it a little before 4pm so i got the $25 bottomless mimosa deal for 1.5 hours. All the food was delicious, the standouts were the cod fish and yuca fries! The ambiance transformed you out of east harlem, with the murals and plants; even though you are outside with a roofto cover you: there are fans everywhere. The cherry on top was how amazing and attentive our server was, Amyn! You really dont find servers that make you feelcomfortable and make you feel welcomed. Alsohis co-worker Daniel came over and made us laugh. All in all go here!

  • Review 30 (2023-05-28 - Rating: 5)

    The spot is super cute, they play great Spanish music! Had a great time with friends visiting from PR. It took a little while to get our food so be patient , but man it was sooo worth the wait. Food was very tasty. Julio was the most amazing host, he was just so great! Damn near the best service Ive received from anyone in NYC. Julio is the best!!!!

    This place deserves more than five stars. Everything was perfect. Service, food, drinks, ambiance 💯Perfect for groups and they accept reservations which is a huge plus if you are planning your celebratory shots to be served by the sweetest folks. It’s super chill and vibe is awesome, can’t wait to go back for more!

    I was impressed by this small storefront Dominican restaurant! I walked by and noticed a lunch take out special. I ended up getting the Chicharon de Pollo with White Rice and Beans. I look forward to visiting them again and trying other items on the menu!

    This was my first time at Santiago’s and won’t be my last. Nice cozy atmosphere, with good food and drinks. Our waiter Jose was very attentive and answered all our questions, and we also got a chance to speak with the restaurant manager who was working overtime to make sure all his guests had a wonderful experience.

    I LOVED this place. Really yummy food and nice drinks. The best of all is the service. Really attentive and genuinely friendly staff that made the experience perfect. I had a couple of cocktails on happy hour and a main. It felt reasonable for what I had price-wise. I’ll be recommending to friends that visit NYC.

  • Review 36 (2022-11-06 - Rating: 4)

    Food, drinks, service and atmosphere are all great. This isnt a knock on the restaurant but this place is pretty expensive, probably one of the more expensive places Ive eaten at this year. I enjoyed the food so it was well worth it.

  • Review 37 (2022-08-22 - Rating: 4)

    We had the sweetest server! The restaurant was busy but she was fully engaged with our very large party as we were celebrating 2 birthdays! All of the staff was accommodating. There was good airflow (lots of fans), cozy atmosphere and GREAT food! I ordered the Salmon with veggies and tostones, my husband ordered the beefsteak, my littles had roasted chicken and my older son had the porkchops. Flavors were on point. We are all picky eaters and loved the food. I totally recommend stopping here when in the city.

    Came here to celebrate my friends birthday.. I ordered the roasted pernil with white rice and red beans with a side of avocado.. the food was good the beans tasted a bit plain... And was brothy.. and didnt have much beans.. and my passion fruit mojito were great! The service provided was good.. felt they couldve been more attentive at one point our whole table needed refills and no one came around ...but thats okay as it was a bit busy.. would definitely like to come back to try other drinks and different foods on their menu..

  • Review 39 (2024-08-25 - Rating: 5)

    This was my second time eating at Santiago’s Beer Garden. Last week I dined inside the restaurant. I really like the decor. It is an Amazonian tropical theme tastefully done.I don’t speak (much) Spanish, but I had the fried chicken chunks with rice and black beans. It was a plain meal but the presentation was so gorgeous. They added a beautiful white and purple flower that reminded me of an orchid but I’m not sure if it was. The meal came with a delicious tangy sauce that I poured over…everything 😂Although it’s a beer garden, I don’t drink but had a really delicious house made lemonade with a splash of passionfruit in a stemless martini like glass. 👌🏾Anyhoo…I liked my food so much that I ordered again, but decided on take out, this tine. Instead of the chicken, I ordered the fried shrimp with a medium side of white rice and a medium black beans and LET 👏🏾 ME 👏🏾 TELL 👏🏾 YOU👏🏾That was THEE BEST shrimp that I have ever had! It was SO well seasoned, after every bite all I could do was shake my head it was so delicious! The black beans were creamy with a nice gravy consistency. They were seasoned very well, and I got a surprise potato chunk that was so tender and creamy that I tried to savor that bad boy to the last drop while I ate. .Now—If you get a chance to try Santiago’s Beer Garden, I hope your experience is just as good as mine.Lord knows I hate to talk about how good my food and experience was and now you have these super high, unrealistic, expectations and are underwhelmed or the cook has an off day when you visit. There was nothing fancy about my meals. They were every day faire that tasted like someone who loves cooking for others put their foot in it! IJS~Enjoy!

    This place made me feel like i was back in DR, the music was great and love how the place is decorated. Not a fan of the drinks and also they could be served in cuter cups. but they did have enough alcohol to get you tipsy. Food was good, I would definitely come back.

  • Review 43 (2021-08-05 - Rating: 5)

    Took me awhile to go here & let me say it was worth it! Drinks, food, & service was on point. Had an issue with a manager where he thought my friend was an employee and demanded he do something even after my friend told him he doesnt work there. The second interaction with that manager was when it was brought to his attention that the restroom was full of vomit and clogged and the managers reply was “Thats y we have plungers for”. Wether my friend was an employee or not, that’s not how you address anybody. My other friend brought it to his attention and the manager later apologized atleast and everything got better from there. Our waiter (tall light skin spanish guy) was very attentive and provided an amazing service. Aside from that I give this location 5 stars! Can’t wait to go back again.

She made SURE we were having a good time & kept the mimosas coming!! Lol food took a VERY Long time to come out like 40 plus minutes. They should give complimentary chips & guac or something because we were starving. Food was great though and seasoned well!. I love this place staff was very friendly and great!

    I imagine this restaurant/beer garden attracts a lot of business. The atmosphere gets a thumbs up, the music was great, They have a beautiful outdoor seating area that’s full of color and plant life! The food was brought out quickly, I only waited about 10 minutes. They have a nice variety of drinks. To eat I had their “Garlic shrimp and moro con coco” because it sounded appealing. I was so pleased with my order! I don’t eat seafood much but I must say that these garlic shrimp were finger-licking good! Overall an amazing experience, can’t wait to return :)

  • Review 56 (2024-08-22 - Rating: 4)

    First time being here and I would say I did really like the food. It was amazing, the drinks were fantastic and the servers were very sweet and welcoming. Only issue I had was when one of the customers directly next to me had a dog and it kept barking and sort of ruining the vibes. I honestly thought it was inappropriate to have a pet there and from the dog’s lack of training I knew right away that it wasn’t a service dog by any means. Maybe it’s a pet friendly restaurant? But still wouldn’t be an environment I would want to be in. Regardless I still loved the food and everything else.

    I went a year ago and I didn’t love the experience nor was it memorable, I tried it again yesterday and I absolutely loved it. The food was amazing and the bottomless brunch was a lot of fun. Glad I went back and tried it again. Thank you so much for a lovely time.

  • Review 62 (2024-05-27 - Rating: 5)

    I came here with my wife on a Friday afternoon. It was semi-busy, but were able to get a seat right away. From the start we were amazed by the vibe of the restaurant as well as the temperature, it felt refreshing just being inside. The music was also great. The one comment is that it can be loud due to the volume of people. The hostess was nice and we started with the mofonguitos and drinks. Both were delicious and would recommend trying both. As for the main course, I got the pernil with coconut rice and it was blown away. I normally dont get impressed with the food of my people, but here, the taste was there at every spoonful. The pernil was tender and delicious. The dessert was good, typical dessert. I would come back, 11/10!

    Nestled in the heart of Harlem, Santiago Beer Garden offers a lively and flavorful experience. I recently had the pleasure of dining for brunch, and it was an experience. Despite the bustling crowd, the ambiance was lovely and welcoming. We started out brunch with pitchers of Coconut Margaritas.. ask for extra coconut pieces if you are into that, it added an extra layer of delight.Amanda the GM, deserves special mention for her exceptional service. She ensured that our glasses were never empty and that our orders were promptly taken care of, adding to the overall enjoyment of our meal.We indulged in some appetizers, including crispy calamari, trio de empanadas and mofoguitos all which were well made and served to perfection. For the main dish I had the churrasco which was perfectly cooked to my liking, and the Moro con coco was delicious.Overall, my experience at Santiago Beer Garden was nothing short of amazing. I can’t wait to return, perhaps for happy hour next time, to sample more of their delicious offerings.

    I enjoyed my experience, the hostess was gracious and gave us an extension to the reservation as some people in our party were late. The food takes a while to come out but the waiter - Carolina - was great and provided great service! She was for sure the highlight of the experience! The music is amazing and the food is flavorful. Overall great experience.

    Went for a birthday Brunch Saturday and we were a very large group. Maybe 20. They made sure we were taken care of from beginning to end. Always attentive. Food never late drinks on time. Sorry I cant remember our server but she was awesome. I had the stewed oxtail falling off the bone yum with coconut rice (it was black rice could not taste coconut but was delish). We ordered shrimp, calamari and epanadas ❤️ I just recommended this place to someone else and would definitely go back. Thank you. 🥰❤️

    The food was absolutely delicious. We waited at least 1 hour for them to tell us they didnt have pernil or oxtail. But the churasco steak was delicious. And they made up for this by giving us delicious empanadas and dessert on the house.

  • Review 79 (2023-05-21 - Rating: 4)

    They have a really dumb rule where if you’re whole party isn’t here, they won’t seat you. There were 5/7 of us here and they had us miss our table and wait 30-45 minutes. They took long to bring us our food so I don’t understand why we couldn’t sit and hold our table until the other two people got here. Our waiter, Carolina, though was the HIGHLIGHT of our dining experience! She was amazing! Super friendly, always checking up to see if we needed anything. Really great service from her end. But the restaurant needs to change these arbitrary rules.

Giving us descriptive and assertive tour guides of the menus, to the best meals in the restaurant but she also gave us an atmosphere everyone walking in here deserves. Amazing Job Zuly. You are incredibly amazing.

  • Review 83 (2024-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Santiago’s is one of my favorite places to eat in NYC. If you don’t know about this gem you should get acquainted. This is my third time visiting Santiago’s and I usually drive over a hour to get here. Some may think that’s extra but NYC is me and my fiancés get away a lot of the time.When you get there you’re greeted instantly and I love that. The aura of the reaturant is a garden vibe and the music is upbeat and loud enough to vibe too but not so loud that you can’t enjoy conversation. The staff is A1 and attentive. They were quick and friendly.The food was yummmmy as usual. I had the salmon, mixed veggies, and tostones. The salmon was cooked perfectly. My fiancé had the oxtails with yellow rice and black beans along with sweet plantain and sliced avocado. The oxtails were soft and flavorful. We also had the fried calamari and the empanadas for an appetizer. So good. My favorite drink is the Pina Colada. I mean it is so good and they are generous with the liquor in the drinks. Trust me you’ll love them.Make sure you check out this little gem located in NYC!

    I loved the food, it was great... The drinks I had are really good as well... My only issue was the waiter served us our food, but never gave us utensils in the first place and we asked for the utensils but was still waiting around over 5 minutes. Besides that the theme and decorations inside is beautiful...

    I LOVE coming to this place - mind you I come all the way from 238th & Broadway in The Bronx! The atmosphere, the music, the scent escaping the kitchen, and the fast service are all factors to a wonderful experience.Zuly was our server tonight and she made me feel like family. I’m a picky eater but she took her time to work with me and feel comfortable about it. I’m going to ask for her every time I come here!I went with the steak & fries, with a side of coconut rice - I was drooling at the presentation alone. My babygirl and I got a pitcher of Mojito and I’ve been correcting my spelling mistakes since I started this review lol. Overall, YOU just need to come here whether it’s for dinner or brunch - I came here for brunch with a party and it was an excellent experience; I might have started texting my ex but whatever!Overall, you can’t go wrong. Have fun!

    Went for a birthday brunch with 10 people, the restaurant was so accomodating and sat us right at our reservation time. They were so friendly and got us started right away with their mimosas. We ordered appetizers before our meals, and everything came out quickly and was delicious. We loved the vibe, great music and lots of fun art and greenery on the walls. We would definitely go back to eat again!

    This place is awesome! the food, ambiance, staff, and cleanliness. The first time I visited, was in 2019 with both besties and we really enjoyed everything. My cousin made reservations for 8 for my visit in April and when I arrived the place looked so beautiful. The new decor and added seating area outside made the place look like you were downtown instead of uptown. El Barrio needed a place like this because I can see they are consistent and consistency will keep people coming back. The manager was attentive to his patrons and staff. Greatly appreciated. Im visiting from VA again next month and reservations have already been made. I cant wait!!!

    We celebrated my grandma’s birthday at Santiago’s Beer Garden, and it was a wonderful experience. Even though the restaurant was busy, our server Annie made sure we felt well taken care of. She checked in with us frequently, always with a smile, and was especially kind to my grandma, which made the night extra special. They even sang happy birthday, which really made her day! Great service and a warm atmosphere—thank you, Annie, for making it memorable!

    SUMMARY: Great drinks, great vibes, great prices. DETAILS: I came up to East Harlem from Hoboken to check out a new neighborhood with 2 friends. Im glad I came by to Santiagos. The beer hall felt like a festive backyard with tons of plants, lights, and artworks. Great drink menu with solid deals during happy hour. The staff was friendly and attentive. I actually left my card and had to come back. The waiter, bartender, and manager were incredibly helpful and were able to locate and return the card to me. I will definitely recommend this place.

    Have to admit, the food here is excellent. Praise to the chef. I never thought I would be liking Dominican food, however this establishment has food that is seasoned well, very flavorful and cooked right. Taste so good make you wanna slap yo mama.The service is also impeccable from the host to the servers. Keep it up, this was my first time here and will be coming back!

  • Review 105 (2022-05-24 - Rating: 4)

    Great place. Amazing vibe and delicious food. One thing that could’ve been better was the service. Everyone was very friendly, and there were zero issues with the staff’s attentiveness. I think the problem was a lack of organization on the waitstaff. It wasn’t very busy when we came but there were a few things that went wrong.First it took 15ish minutes for someone to come to our table after we were sat. The server was really apologetic once he realized we were waiting so long. Very nice server. The second problem was that they forgot about our dessert, and we had to clarify what we ordered with another server who came by to check on us. The third issue was that they added an extra drink to our bill that was meant for the next table over (we got a corrected bill after telling them).We’d definitely go back, it was a good experience overall. I don’t think the waitstaff communicates with each other enough, that’s my only suggestion.

  • Review 106 (2024-09-25 - Rating: 4)

    The food was okay, I had the Churrasco rice and beans. The steak could have been seasoned more. But it was tender and cooked good. The atmosphere is nice and intimate especially during lunch hours very quiet with Spanish music playing in the background . The only thing that was uncomfortable was the seats. I would suggest adding cushion to the wooden seats. Service was nice as well and very fast. We also had no salt and pepper on the table. I would suggest adding that to the table as well.

    I went as part of a party of 8 and I have to be super candid. The restaurant is beautiful, and the manager on duty did an amazing job of making up the slip ups. Our server was super polite and was attentive without being pushy however The food took forever and when it arrived it was cold, tables arriving after us were receiving their food. I had to send mine back because I couldnt overlook it and my side of avocado took even longer to come out. Our drinks took long to come out as well. The food is extremely delicious and every business may have an off day. I see so many great reviews 😕

We also had mozzarella sticks as a starter, for the main course I ordered salmon with tostones, and my wife had oxtail with moro de coco. All the food was extremely tasty and we had so much fun.

    Kassandra was an excellent waitress/server! She was very attentive and patient with my friends and I, even when we slightly overstayed our table time. She was engaging and friendly! She is the main reason I would ever return! The bartender Nelson was also very friendly and helpful, as well as the manager (with the pink hat!)(Admittedly, there was one staff member that was a bit short with me in tone, and overall stony, which I did NOT appreciate)The setting is relatively small, so definitely make a reservation before going, and be on time! The food was okay and a good portion (I had the oxtails) and the drinks were very strong. Music is lively and really creates a safe brunch setting despite COVID.

  • Review 123 (2021-10-08 - Rating: 4)

    We had made reservations for a table of 4 and preferred inside seating because their setup was what intrigued us. Our hostess was very accommodating and sat us 3 hours before our reserved time, because we couldnt find any seating at our preferred time.For a place which has Beer garden in its name, we really hoped they had some beers on tap. All beers here are served in bottle. The place was relatively busy at 1 pm on a sunny Saturday afternoon. We ordered the Empanadas Trio ($13) for starters and they were just ok. We also ordered the Mozzarella Sticks ($12) which we could not finish.For mains, I ordered the Sin Carne Rice, Beans & Maduros ($16). The food didnt have much of a strong flavor that would stand out, but everyone on the table liked the maduros which did get polished from my plate. The beans were ok and the rice felt quite dry.A few things that we were not that impressed about included a tiny mouse that ran past our table grossed us out, not so attentive servers/waiters, and just having a single restroom.Overall, we did have a good time with no major issues!

    Food was delicious! Great service too!My friend and I had lunch here the other day, Danielle was our server. She was friendly, helpful and attentive!We ordered pernil with rice and beans. My friend who doesnt eat pork LOVED it! We also had Boneless fried chicken with tostones, so good! Especially the salsita they give you on the side.Music was latino/afro beats mix. Great vibe.The only complaint was how hot it was inside. We came around lunch time and were seated on the side that didnt have fans facing us... it was so hot, felt like a green house in there.Our server let us move outside where they have a huge fan/ac.Again its summer time, its hot out. Not much you can do about that.Would definitely come again! Maybe for brunch or after 4pm when the sun starts setting. Also for their hurricane, it was delicious!!

The food is ALWAYS delicious, the drinks are great and it’s always service with smile. I want to take a second to shoutout Franklin who was an amazing waiter and made sure that my friend and I were taken care of throughout the duration of our time at the restaurant. He was kind, charismatic and on point with his food and drink recommendations! The ambiance of SBG definitely makes you feel like you’re relaxing somewhere on an island or a beach. For my first time outdoor dining since the Pandemic began, it was an absolute pleasure. You can guarantee that I will be back.

    This place absolutely blew my friends and I away. We chose Santiago’s based off of the reviews and it did not disappoint. At first it seemed like things could go south after being served watered down drinks BUT it was quickly rectified and all the staff were accommodating as well as friendly! The FOOD had flavor for days. I had the skirt steak and it was mouth watering. They cooked it perfectly! Once our drinks were fixed we ordered a few more. Certainly left Santiago’s Beer Garden full and buzzed! The only real down side was the warmth inside the restaurant. It has a green house vibe and the sun was beaming which made it terribly hot. But overall great experience and would be back.

    I stumbled upon this place by accident because I work around the corner. So yesterday eve was the 1st time going. I will start with the positives I love The ambiance décor and vibes in this place. The host Kimberly was very nice She Made every effort to get us a reservation inside on a busy Friday summer evening. We were Quickly seated when my friend arrived.Now I must say the music is way too loud here Its not enjoyable to be screaming While having dinner and youre sitting side-by-side with the person and also trying to hear what the waitress is saying vice versa. The waitress I think her name was Jessica long dark ponytail a lot of tattoos she was not the friendliest ,at least to us because she barely cracked a smile. She also didnt know the menu very well in terms of how food is prepared or the wine list she could not explain much of anything. I ordered a side of beans because she didnt tell me the coconut rice already had beans in it she actually said it does not come with beans and she brought the beans out close to the end of the meal didnt even apologize or offer to Take it off the bill. My friend has food allergies and one thing the waitress did make sure to let the chef know and told my friend so she felt comfortable. At one point my friend and I were screaming at each other so much to hear over the loud music, I asked the waitress if they could just lower it a little bit And instead of saying that she will ask she was seeming like it wasnt possible so I told her to please ask And it seems like she did because they lowered it just a Tadd bit. this is not a night club the music doesnt have to be blaring for people to enjoy themselves I think it should be at a conversational level.Ending on a positive note here the food was very delicious well seasoned and filling.We enjoyed it very much. Drinks were okay but please serve everyone with a glass instead of some with plastic cups.I will be back here but I will not have the waitress again and probably will sit on the sidewalk to avoid the very loud music.

    Food was incredible. We started with the empanadas and the fisherman boat (fried shrimp, calamari and plantains. So yummy. We also enjoyed the oxtail with fried chicken. Everything was so seasoned and delicious. Will be returning

    Really good drinks and good food. A lot of people go so have patience but their passion fruit margaritas and piña colada is good.

    The ambience of this place is amazing, food was great with great music. The only thing I’d say was the service could’ve been a bit better. I waited quiet sometime to get served and it was difficult to get the waiters attention to even bring the check over. Despite this, it’s a great plAce.

    Great spot, our server, Anthony, gave great service to my large party. Anthony was very knowledgeable about the menu and super helpful. I had the oxtail and it was super flavorful.

    Came on a gorgeous Saturday. Low-key vibe with ample seating. Service was always quick. Decent selection of beers and cocktails (all made with soju). We tried the sliders which were simple but flavorful. A lot of other guests had food that looked and smelled delicious. Prices are fair. Would definitely come back.

    So I was meeting my girls for lunch here. One of the girls made the reservations for 12pm. When I arrived I found parking a little distance, on the street. When I walked in I seen my girlfriends and joined them. The spot wasnt that big but they did their best to socially distance. Our server was Cassandra and she was pretty good.For drinks I ordered the sangrita and it was very tasty and had some kick to it. The girls ordered the same and liked theirs as well. For my entrée I ordered the oxtail with yellow rice. That was tasty as well and very tender. The girls ordered different things and I didnt hear a complaint. Everyone finished their meals as well so that was a good sign. The cost was about $350 including gratuity and a service charge. All in all we had a good experience.

    The food was delicious, staff were accommodating, and the ambience was nice! Only downside in my opinion is that the brunch is a bit pricey compared to others. Bottomless option for drinks was $28 per person, the food was separate from this. Additionally, all individuals at the table had to participate in bottomless option. Other than this, a positive experience.

    🇩🇴🥘🧆🍲🍽🍷🍹🥂🎨🖼. A live, laugh, love type of restaurants. The food was delicious… a bit salty but fine. The artwork and mural was nice. Beautiful skylight if you want to talk photos. To me, as much as I didn’t drink, I didn’t get the sense that this was a beer garden. In fact I saw no beer being served. While it is a relaxing space, it felt like false advertising.

    First time here and I had a blast after going to a boring brunch we had so much fun can’t wait to come back !!! Ask for genesis she was the best food recommendation where on point !!!

    Been here twice already and it’s always a good time & food. The music playing is always a vibe. Appetizers & the meal are delicious. Being there makes me feel like I’m literally in Dominican Republic. Management & the servers are great, the food is quick as well and super fresh. I’ve had the empanadas as a appetizer, the churrasco with shrimp as a meal with tostones. The side orders are big, great to share. I bought my mom a order to go of moro with eggplant and she really enjoyed it. My significant other, had the fried shrimp and maduros with rice and beans and also enjoyed it. It’s a lot of food so try going when your hunger is steady rather than starving. One of the best things about Santiago’s beer garden is you’re able to make a reservation. Walk ins are welcomed but you’re better off just doing a reservation just so you have a secure spot. A lot of people I know also have gone during brunch and it’s very popular on tik tok so it’s def worth it

    This place is super cute and really small. You must be vaccinated to be allowed inside. The waiters and bartenders do not wear mask. However, they are vaccinated.I came in with a party of 8. Theres a bunch of rules. A limit to how long we can sit. If you want the bottomless mimosas, the entire table has to get it. We opted not to.Overall the ambiance is cute. They have a clear roof but with plants and fabric covering it. The decor was nice. Its cute, cozy, etc. They dont allow you to request any songs. So you are stuck listening to whatever the bartender plays.The waiter was so patient. He was super busy!! He had to take care of people inside and outside. The bar did move alot slower then we would of liked. We did wait long periods of times for drinks. We were seated right next to the bar so we could see him on his phone or hanging instead of making the drinks. That was a little annoying.My mom drive the waiter crazyyyyy. And he was so sweet and patient. I really give it to him. There were periods he was overwhelmed and forgot some items, etc so my mom wasnt happy. However, he rectified it and got us what we needed. He did good.I ordered myself a Passionfruit Margarita. It was realllly good. The remaining people at the table ordered beers and moscow mules and mimosas. All good.We ordered a whole bunch of starters. We got the cheese empanadas (dont order. It wasnt good at all). We ordered the broccoli and cheese tots, OMG so good, order this. We ordered the shrimps, sooo delicious, get this. We got yucca and regular fries, both delish. We ordered the fried chicken chunks, so good too.Overall, this place is def worth a visit. Especially if your in the area. They have outdoor seating for anyone whose non-vaccinated or wants to seat outside.

    The host was fantastic. Did give us recommendations which we appreciated. We had the bottomless mimosa passion fruit and guava Delish. Great atmosphere inside. Laid back and overall enjoyable time.The food was very good chicharrón de pollo with tostones. We also shared a coconut rice. My friend had the skirt steak with tostones very good.

Basic Latin dishes but they must throw love in their cooking cause... yea.Perfect sized portions. Such a cute place, can’t wait to go back in the rain since the roof is glassish — looks soothing.Perfect date spot honestly.

    The place was beautiful, food was great, service was great. Our server Carolina was attentive, professional and even adhered to all our needs. We told her we wanted grilled shrimp, which there was only breaded on then menu and she made sure the cooks made us the grilled shrimp. Fast service. The drinks were in point! Bottomless mimosas where amazing!
