Editorial Review for Kibitz Room – by Shivon V. Tuoni

In Short
Conveniently attached to Canter's, the Kibitz Room is the perfect place to drink before or after you chow down. The music has expanded to include pop hits from subsequent decades. If you get there early enough, Eric the bartender will treat you to pictures of his son, but otherwise you might have to wait to get his attention. Bands hoping to follow in the footsteps of past Kibitz Room performers like the Wallflowers play on most nights.

Need some matzo ball soup to go with that beer? You can order food off the Canter's menu while chilling at the bar.

Just got back from the Kibitz room and I have to say it was a great time. The drinks were cheap, people where very friendly and I saw one of the most amazing bands ever. They were called Bronson. Amazing show!

Pros: Cheap drinks, cool people, great music

Cons: mmm..., m..., hmmm....

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

Girls puking in the bathroom, a bartender overserving a drunk jerk who seemed to be itching for a fight, same bartender had a laissez faire attitude to the point where a female patron was phycially threatened by the drunk guy; and when it got to the seriously scary point and one of us had to call for help before someone got hurt, the bartender publically berated us and kicked US out!!! all because we did what all patrons that night felt was right and called the police. Sad because it's a great concept and showcase for up and coming artists. I have no problems with the Deli side. But stay away from the Kibitz Room! You've been warned. There was a late night tv show producer at the bar that night who witnessed how abusive the bartender was. I hope the owners turn this around.

Pros: Great small showcase, Opportunity for risin, cozy

Cons: Poorly managed bar, Unstable bartender
