    Fantastic Brunch!

    I stumbled upon this place while walking around my neighborhood. I am a huge fan of pre-fix brunches and the special here was great! Drink, coffee/tea, and various French-style entrees to choose from. I got something with asparagus and eggs and it was delicious. The atmosphere was really welcoming and our server was extremely attentive. I just couldn't understand why there weren't more people there!

    Downhill Fast

    What I remembered as a cute small jazz bar with okay small plates was on my last visit a typical college town dump with commercial "classic rock" radio at happy hour (The Doors, Eagles...), slow service, and a cheese and charcuterie plate that could have been bought at the Boar's Head counter. The drinks were good, that's about it. Oh, and the comments here about the crowd are spot-on. The usual collegiate kids who seem to be everywhere.

    Dont order the cheese plate

    The drinks were awesome, but don't order the cheese plate, its just a pile of gross sliced kraft cheese.

    Rue B is not exactly a gem!

    The overall atmosphere and first appearance sets the tone of your average yet slightly more sophisticated east village dive bar. The walls are plastered with black and white portraits of famous sports stars and rock and roll icons and plenty of other hipster nostalgia that will keep you mildly entertained. They had a talented piano player that could have made for great ambiance would it not have been for his repetitious love song selection and awkward renditions of Tom Jones. The service was attentive but puzzled at our request for utensils and we were moved to a different table mid meal. The food was sub par bar food at best. All in all, it wasn't the best of experiences.

    Reasonable prices/not reasonable portion

    Went this past Sunday for brunch, great brunch menu reasonably priced, also price of brunch included drink mimosa/bloody mary etc... food was delicious but the portion was SO SMALL. I ordered the extra virgin olive oil eggs with asparagus and shaved parmesan. I got two fried eggs, three asparagus spears w/parmesan and got maybe 8-10 cubes of rosemary red potato home fries...and I walked away still hungry.....And it's a shame because, the restaurant was such a sweet place, and the food was really tasty, and the service was great...

    I wish i was there now!

    a great place to eat, drink and hang out. cozy small room and tables with curved banquettes at the windows. piano and live music, creative drinks and delicious appetizers, pizzas and panninis cause cravings.

    Excellent brunch

    Brunch was a fantastic value. A short wait for a table, but we were greeted warmly and had drinks in our hand within 2 minutes. Ended up eating at the bar. The bartender was just as attentive as necessary - not overwhelming or obnoxious, but we never had to wait for a thing. The only disappointment was the coffee. Based on my friends' review of their brew, I was thrilled that I had chosen a mimosa. Overall, the best $10 (one drink included) spent on a brunch in a long time.
