'It's my favorite bar on Earth'

-- Anthony Bourdain, 2000

‘Tracy’s the grungy Toots Shor, a quintessential New York saloon keeper. It’s Tracy’s vision and his living room, and he welcomes kings and paupers alike.’

-- Michael Imperioli, 2026

‘When people talk about the pockets of weirdness still hanging on in NYC, they're talking about Siberia.’

--The Infatuation, Jan 2026

‘NYC's most singular dive bar is back underground, and New York is better for it.’

  --Town & Country, Mar. 2026

‘You never know who's going to be draped over couches or listening to live bands in the dungeon-like cellar—rock-and-rollers, off-duty cops, drunken journos, cast and crew from 'Saturday Night Live,' slumming fashionistas, post-work chefs, kinky politicos, out-of-work bone-breakers, or nodding strippers. It's heaven.’

-- Anthony Bourdain, Kitchen Confidential
