Brunch at the Pineapple Club was awesome! My wife and I met my daughter and had a great time at this club/restaurant in the East Village. It was a late Saturday morning and the place was just getting going, but the drinks, food, and service, were excellent!I started off with an espresso martini which was perfect! We shared an appetizer of Chicken Bites. The chicken served with a yogurt sauce was delicious. For entrees, I had the banana bread French toast and my wife and daughter had the avocado toast. We all loved our meals!My daughter said this is a very popular club at night. I could see that as it's a very cool setup inside. Another fun NYC spot!

I honestly don't know why this place is so popular. The food I had was No Bueno aka No Good. I should have known better than to order the Chicken and Waffle from here but I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. What I got was a basic low effort thrown together dish. Personally, I think the chicken may have been some frozen Chicken bites ( no bone) that they warmed up and put beside the waffles to make my dish. I could have completely made this dish for myself at home. I should note, they were generous with the blueberries on the waffles. I also ordered a NA drink, the Ginger Lime Spritz which I did enjoy. Nowadays restaurants basically charge the same for NA drinks as alcoholic beverages which I think is annoying. But I did appreciate that they were able to split up the bill for each of us in the party no problem. Some establishments can make the bill splitting such a hassle.Finally, although the venue was cute and they had an area in the back with a glass ceiling that allowed the light in like if we were in greenhouse, I did not like the stains left on the seats. It was not a good look and think it's time for new upholstery.

Went for drinks & a quick bite on a Saturday night and was able to make a reservation a few hours before. Totally worth hitting up -- the chicken bites & Burrata were solid snacks and my friends liked their drinks a lot. The best part was our kind waiter who went out of his way to help us celebrate my birthday with a candle alongside a shot & some ice cream. We sat downstairs which was quiet and decorated very nicely.

Really friendly staff and fun brunch vibes! My friend and I came here on a rainy Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too crowded. This place is cutely decorated and is definitely more of a get drunk at kind of place. We shared the XL mimosa which came in a really fun huge flamingo and is made with pineapple juice but was not strong at all.I ordered the pineapple Express with subbed out potatos instead of salad for no extra charge. It was good but not amazing but the potatoes seemed to be a decent crisp! I asked for my eggs over medium but they were definitely a little more cooked than that.My friends got the banana bread French toast and the pork belly hash. My friend really enjoyed the poached egg on the pork belly hash but we both agreed that both our meals needed way more seasoning.Overall a fun place I'd come back to for the vibe with decent enough food.

Pineapple Club is a charming and intimate restaurant bar in the East Village. Their menu focuses on New American cuisine (with regional and international influences) and fruity cocktails. Judging by the name, I thought it was going to be a Caribbean vibe... but it's not lol- just a heads up!We popped in spontaneously on a Thursday evening. Since the weather was horrible and rainy, it wasn't busy and we were seated immediately. The interior is upscale, trendy, and spacious so it's a good spot for large groups, night outs, and dates. It's like a lounge atmosphere that caters more towards a younger crowd.We tried their menu for NYC Restaurant Week. It's a 3 course dinner (starter, entree, and dessert) for $45 per person (doesn't include taxes and gratuity). Our orders:*Striped Bass Ceviche- This was the star dish of the meal! It included passion fruit, jalapeño, red onion, and cucumber with yellow corn tortilla chips. It hit a ton of flavor palates- sour, citrusy, savory, spicy, sweet. *Plaintains and Guacamole- Now this was FRESH guac and you could tell right away.*PC Burger with side of french fries- This burger was more filling than I expected... I was STUFFED. It comes with 2 x 4 oz. patties, American cheese, pickles, and secret sauce on a potato roll. Beef patties were juicy and cooked just how I like it (medium). The fries were super crispy... yum.*Kiwi and Coconut Sorbet Sundae- Smooth, refreshing, and tarty! There were fresh pieces of coconut and kiwi pulp.*Key Lime Pie- This was actually more of a tart or a mini pie because of how small it was. But it tasted exactly like how it's supposed to be.I wish I could say good things about our drinks, but they were on the weaker side. We got a lychee martini ($17) and a pineapple old fashioned ($19). They tasted more like a fruit juice. They definitely needed more liquor.Service was excellent! They took care of us and were very attentive with refilling our waters, clearing dishes, and making sure we were enjoying ourselves. Overall, this was a good find for restaurant week! However, I don't think I'd come back. I wasn't impressed with their drinks. The rest of their menu is mainly small bites and sandwiches at hefty prices. They only have 2 entree options, so it's very limited. And it's NYC, so of course everything is inflated. Just not sure the portions and quality are worth the value... $25+ for a sandwich?! I'm happy I tried, though!

Food: 3.5/5 | Service: 3.5/5 | Experience: 4/5This place is more definitely more accommodating towards large groups and / or just for drinks. It was quite dim inside but colorful.We ordered off of the restaurant week menu: chilled melon soup, plantain chips and guac, PC burger, poke bowl, key lime pie, and a kiwi and coconut sorbet. The soup was simply ok; it was a bit salty, very watermelon-y, and less refreshing than expected. The chips and guac were pretty good; there was a generous amount of guac, which paired well with the thin chips. The PC burger was a typical double cheeseburger and cooked well. The fries that came with it were fresh and hot. The poke bowl was not it; it was an odd combo of fruit, tuna, rice, and plantain chips, which are all good on its own, but did not meld in the bowl. The pie was very sweet, so we did not finish it. The sorbet had very strong flavors of kiwi and coconut, which did pair well together but if had individually, the coconut was a bit overwhelming for me.Overall, the food was merely ok for me. Drinks were also pricey for amount. Restaurant week menus are meant to be a good deal, but I did not think so and looking at the regular menu, the rest of the food did look pricey as well.

I enjoyed my meal here, but the setup of this place is quite confusing and cramped. My group of six ended up at a table which was half chairs and half couch. Those of us on the couch were sitting straight and uncomfortably for our whole meal, unsure of what to do with the pillows that were too big for the seats and too large to put behind our backs. It's clear that Pineapple Club specializes in drinks. The bowls we got were similar in taste to Chipotle, and the salad was well mixed but really minimal in terms of ingredients. The drinks were cute, albeit pricey. I'd probably only come back to do drinks with friends.

Pretty average! Unfortunately the cocktails were just ok. The espresso martini is tiny, and not very tasty, and costs $18?? Felt a little bit ripped off. But food was tasty and the ambiance was good!

Went with a party of 9 people for my birthday The interior is super cute and the presentation of the food was pretty. - Avocado Tempura ($18): Interesting concept, the avocado was very ripe and i liked the crispy and soft parts to this! (4/5)- Dozen Oysters ($36): $3 an oyster is pricey and the oysters weren't that spectacular. Some were pretty small as well (2/5)- Chicken & Waffles ($26): They gave 4/5 small pieces of chicken with a waffle that looked like it was premade (like eggo waffles). The blueberry jam was yummy tho (3/5)- Pork Belly Hash ($22): The egg was runny and pork belly were tasty. But the dish itself was lacking in flavor (3/5)- Yuzu Fried Chicken ($23): Out of the 3 dishes, this felt like the most worth. The sandwich was juicy and had a kick of spiciness to it. Definitely filling since I didn't finish my meal. The fries were yummy too (4/5):: Overall, the food is pricey for how much food they offered. Also, I felt like the service was very slow and I noticed there was like only one person working all the tables. We sat down around 1:15 PM and somehow ended up leaving close to 4 PM because we were waiting for the food, then the cake, then the check. It also might have been that they had an automatic 20% gratuity on large parties for us to have super slow service. There was also a $3/person cake fee for cutting the cake. I don't know if I would be coming back again for brunch but the vibes of the place is pretty!
