We are two lads who moved here from the same little village in the heart of Ireland over 10 years ago. "The Laurels" was the name given to the local football field where we grew up; where fun was had, experiences shared and memories made. We hope "The Laurels" NYC-version can offer our customers the same!

    Even though we had a reservation staff informed us before being seated that we would have to be quick because they had other reservations to fill and then proceeded to try and overcharge us on our bill.

    Very mediocre steak frites, long waits for the waiters to serve the table even though it was quiet, no ambiance.
