The Scene
The only thing that’s missing from this staged park scene is the chirping of mechanical birds. Giant garage windows allow natural light to spill over rows of blonde bench seating, hanging hubcaps and ficus trees planted in oil drums. An overhead marquee menu invites walk-up ordering–and the lunchtime crowd might be better off going this route, given the stunted table service.
The Food
Like an afternoon spent outdoors, you’ll find hot dogs, hamburgers and sausages on the grill. The simple, skinny-pattied burger is about what you’d expect from any old snack stand, and its accompanying Belgian spuds are surpassed by a basket of flaky, buttermilk onion rings. More interesting is the Parmesean-Gruyere grilled cheese, stuffed with tomatoes and pesto sauce, or a generous helping of the mild, caramelized onion-topped kielbasa. Most dishes come with dipping sauces: The spicy sambal ketchup and garlic aoli create the most harmonious flavors. – Citysearch
SoHo Park is packed with people all the time during lunch, first thing you do is find your own seat (if you’re not alone) then order. The line to order is quite long, don’t treat this spot as a fast food joint b/c the food doesn’t come that “fast”. The food is decent but def not as good as Burger Joint or Stay. Prices are moderate but I enjoy the atmosphere, something different from your typical restaurants. Will def hit this spot again, peep the pics after the jump…
