I'm on a boat, i'm on a boat, everybody look at me cause i'm sailing on a boat! Well... maybe I'm not sailing per se... but I'm on a boat and I'm knocking back a Corona.. or at least that was what I was doing this past saturday night. We came here rather randomly since we had a large group of people and some weren't dressed properly to go anywhere nicer. It worked out well though since this place has no dress code and was pretty chill. When you come here and start walking down the pier, it almost seems like you are intruding on something. We were walking past garbage cans, piles of rope for tying down ships and other assorted stuff. The pier has a cool but grungy feel to it. Drinks were pricey but thats to be expected in nyc. One of the best deals was a bucket of 6 corona's for $35. We got some for the birthday boy and were able to find seating in various places. One of the coolest things here was definitely the boat. You can walk up and go and find a seat on a boat they have near the dock (think more industrial seeming boat vs yacht.. def not yacht like hahah). When the wind kicks up you can feel the boat moving and at that point you can wonder if all this motion is too much booze or just the boat? Maybe a bit of both. One thing of note, I was really scared of what the bathroom would look like but when I used the bathroom on the boat it wasnt nearly as bad as I expected. Everything was automatic so you didnt have to touch anything. Fantastic! Later on in the night I had to use the bathroom and I used the one on the pier... and it reeked of urine... it smelled absolutely disgusting... So as a tip, if you have to use the bathroom, definitely walk to the boat and use it there. Avoid the pier bathroom at all costs haha.

There is something about this place that screams touristy but yet every year I end up going there for at least 2 client dinners. The food is always good and the crowd isn't stuffy which makes it an easy choice when taking someone out for business. Is it the best food you will ever have? No. Is it the best service? No. Is there a huge Buddha that can be a great ice breaker? Yes. I wouldn't go here unless I was in the neighborhood. If you want a somewhat similar experience (atmosphere) with MUCH better food, go to Buddha Bar.

Don't yell at me! I know you have like 5 things on the menu, but I still need at least 30 seconds to decide. Ok. I made up my mind. I guess I'll have a hot dog. And fries. Moving on, so you can screech at the masses of people in ill-fitting shorts that stand behind me. I guess I ended up at this "legendary" joint because everyone claims it's a "must". "You're going to Atlanta? Oh, you GOTTA stop by VARSITY!". Now I have to ask: "why"? Why does someone have to stop by this place? The atmosphere was annoying. Food was extremely average, and that's being very generous. Why this place is so famous is seriously beyond me. Probably because there is a never-ending stream of out of towners like myself that have seen this on the 9 million Food Network shows it's been on and mindlessly show up. Have any of you ever been to Chicago? It's the red meat capital of the world. There's a place there called Portillo's that will put this place to shame. As I sat eating my lackluster Varsity meal, it's all I could think about.
