O'Toole's Way: A Review of the New American Cocktail Bar in Hudson Yards, NYC

Pork chop! Don't forget to order the pork chop! Great service and location. When in Hudson yards, this is a great place to visit.

What a great spot! Just wonderful all the way up and down. Service and food. Had a wonderful business lunch and look forward to dining here again. I had Fish & chips - it was outstanding!

The food and service was outstanding. Great atmosphere. Cookie Skillet dessert a Must! Burgers delish! Worth a visit!!

I came here for a work happy hour and we had a range of appetizers including the wings, Irish nachos, cheese plate, and the hummus. Everything was quality and you could tell the ingredients are fresh. They have a wide selection of beers and some interesting cocktails to try. The bartenders were very friendly and conversational. I like the indoor space but will definitely be back to check out the outdoor area.

Look, the truth is, I live in Seattle but would happily fly over to NYC just to have the steak "Dangerous Dave's" Dublin Dip. It was everything it needed to be and more. I sat in their cute courtyard on a sunny day - enjoy a cold beer and a deliciously, soft, flavorful sandwich. It was fire. The service, also pretty great.

Originally, our plan was to hit the beach, but a recent bout of the 'rona scrambled that idea. Instead, we took a stroll along the High Line and ended up exiting right by O'Toole's Way. If not for Yelp search directing us here on a recommendation for "outdoor dining," we probably never would have dropped in. This venue is pretty tucked away. We'd lucked into some temperate weather after several weeks of heat waves, so the tree-shaded outdoor seating was the perfect spot to enjoy a post-walk repast. Shoutout to our server, Gabriella, who totally matched our vibe on this particular sunny Friday afternoon. She's one of those front-of-house staff that's entirely present when she's with you -- engaged, attentive, and casually quippy. And she's also magically unobtrusive when it's obvious you have everything you need. While we were ordering, we had some pretty specific requests (i.e., can the kitchen pre-split our sandwich? extra sharing plate). Not only did she rattle off our order precisely, but also called out the additional details... and then actually delivered everything we asked for. Flawless. The cobb was one of the better traditional renditions we've had in awhile. The lobster BLT was tasty and satisfying, but not particularly noteworthy, considering the many truly spectacular lobster sandwiches that abound in the northeastern states. However, the fries were absolutely smashing. I can't begin to comprehend what prep resulted in these tantalizing taters, but they were -everything-: crispy on the outside, fluffy and starchy on the inside, and -- most astoundingly -- maintained their texture even after they cooled. There's some super secret spud sorcery at work here, and you can't convince me otherwise. Noteworthy service, all-around fine food, and a pleasant patio to enjoy an al fresco meal round out O'Toole's Way as a better-than-mediocre sports bar.

Hi, service was awesome! New to the hood and they were very welcoming! I loved the pulled chicken sandwich and fish and chips. Great ambiance and amazing service. I really love the outdoor space. Great for a date. I will def be back!

O'Toole's is an excellent addition to Hudson Yards and one that was needed in this area. You'll have a hard time choosing what items you'd like to try as they are all tempting. I decided to order the buffalo chicken wings. They were perfectly cooked. You get the option between buffalo wing or BBQ sauce. The chicken was incredibly moist and flavorful and even more impressive was the fact that the chicken was fully cooked. It is so rare to find a restaurant kitchen that knows how to fully cook chicken so you don't end up with food poisoning. I didn't see any blood in the chicken like I normally do. Several weeks ago I went to a restaurant - It was dark and unfortunately I didn't realize I was eating raw chicken. I'll be coming to O'Tooles more often for their chicken dishes (chicken pot pie, brick chicken, etc). If you're a sports fan like I am (especially soccer) then you'll love the screens they have on the walls. You won't miss a beat when the playoffs are on. If you're looking for a pub type feelwith a mix of upscale steak house atmosphere, I think this is a good mix. It's actually the perfect mix.

Love this neighborhood pub. We come here probably once every 1-2 weeks for dinner. We enjoy the kale caesar salad (which comes with very fresh cheese and decent salmon), lobster BLT, burger, and the mussels. They play great music (usually a live DJ) but it is pretty loud as a heads up. Service has gotten much better than the first few times we came here. Will definitely continue coming here!
