F1 Lounge

Horrible horrible ! The bartender was so rude and unfriendly I came here on a Monday afternoon. I sat ordered patron and ask if they are busy on a Monday till 2 am. And she snapped at me like u wouldn’t believe I’m in shock And certainly will never be back she was sitting the entire time at a table on her on phone. Very unprofessional to say the least I won’t be back.

My favorite spot in Brooklyn I was a regular but now in Florida big up to Team Volume

Cool and down home neighborhood spot, family owned and operated for over 10 years — great food, great music, great bartenders, and great vibe… interesting mix of old timers and young people at the bar, and the game on TV — this area is a little bit dead at night, and its great to have FI here to warm up the neighborhood… mellow on week-​nights and then Fri and Sat get turnt up –!

I must say that the oxtail is so savory, full of flavor, and plenty on the plate for $ 8! Really delicious and I haven’t deviated far from that menu item. The drinks are very reasonably priced, the bartenders are sweet, and once that soca hits, the party starts!
Realistically, I got light headed one time from the moth ball smell in there and had to take a breather. Good stuff tho!

— Great soca (and reggae) music on Saturday nights
— Cute and creative drinks
— Not the kind of place to meet members of the opposite sex, I’ve been there twice for specific parties, and there weren’t many outsiders

The first time I came here I wasn’t impressed. So before writing a negative review I like to try a spot at least three times. All three times I’ve had the same experience — weak drinks and slow service.
My most recent experience:
I suggested this place since its close to home. I pre-​warned my date about the prior two experiences I’ve had here and he still wanted to go. On this particular night it wasn’t crowded (possibly due to the snow storm we had) and the music was decent. We had two drinks, browsed the food menu then left. The food looked amazing but after having waited 10 minutes for a drink we couldn’t stand the thought of possibly waiting an hour for our food. This experience was the only reason why I gave this lounge 2 stars. Although slow, the bartender was a little more attentive.
On to the drinks:
I don’t know if the bartenders are just learning how to make drinks or if the managers are telling them to water down drinks. Whatever the reason, I wish they would stop or hire new people.
This place has the potential to be such a nice lounge. The décor is nice and they have a decent liquor selection. On top of weak drinks, the service was slow. The bar wasn’t crowded and yet it took the bartender at least 10 mins to acknowledge my presence (on my first 2 visits here) and then another 10 mins for my drink to be made (it wasn’t like I was ordering a Bloody Mary made from scratch so the wait baffled me).
Overall: Will I return? Eek. Methinks not!

Cute setup… Yes I said cute. That’s what I thought when I walked in.
Can’t say much about the food because I only had one drink… I wasn’t really impressed but the service was prompt and the bartender was on point (and attractive).
Cash and credit. I’ll be back, maybe.
