Had been a few times only for cocktails and finally made it for dinner last night. Every single thing our table of 3 ordered: drinks; mac n' cheese; salads; brussel sprout app; burgers; and shortribs was simply perfect. Service was casual and friendly but also prompt and attentive. Space is nice--exposed brick walls, antique clocks, and low lighting.

Pretty good food at Jack the Horse Tavern. Comfortable ambience, great hostessing, good bartending/drinks. Menu much improved. But service is rather self oriented. Don't bother with reservations the owner will just trump the hostess and give them away. Overall average for NYC but pretty good for Brooklyn Heights

I have never actually eaten at Jack the Horse, because I go specifically for the divine cocktails. Their mixologist is constantly coming up with wonderful new (or new takes on old) drinks that are made fresh, from scratch, right down to the juiced citrus and the hand-flamed orange rind. Tthe drinks are generous, potent, and made from top-flight liquor as well. Last week, I had a drink called Behind the Knees recently that effervescent and tippled with elderflower cordial--summer in a glass. I downed that one too quickly and then had another that was rich and multi-layered and encouraged slow sipping. My companion had two other drinks--equally wonderful, including an off-the menu custom order flip cocktail called the coffee flip that made us both fight for the dregs in the glass. I have found the barkeep to be genial and welcoming when I wanted to chat and blissfully unobtrusive when I want to enjoy the company I am with. I haven't noticed the kid thing at all as I sit at the bar, but I can sat that the wonderful soothing calm atmosphere with its gentle simmer of talk and perfectly-pitched music is part of what I pay for with a $10 cocktail. I'm going back tonight.
