Overall Rating: 4/5

Great late night food! My husband and I shared the chicken sandwich and it was really good. The French fries could benefit from a little bit more salt, but they were really hot, fresh and crispy. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly, and healthy.

I got Doordash from The Commodore. The fried chicken is juicy and delicious. The three large pieces are much larger than what one would receive at KFC or Popeye's. But I was disappointed that the amount of fries was lower than expected. It did not fill up the box. I ordered a large, with árbol sauce and smoked mayo ($11). When I compared what I got vs. pictures of what a large fries plate looks like on premises, I felt a bit short-changed. Also the sauces I received were not accurate, as they gave me honey butter and red sauce, which were still pretty good. And they had my dasher waiting a while before the order was ready. Perhaps it's better in person and on site. The drinks on the menu look good, particularly the Pina colada with amaretto float. Perhaps I will try one day when the weather is warmer.

I came for the fried chicken plate and it delivered. Everything else, maybe not so much. The fried chicken, as promised, is well brined and juicy, crunchy and has a ton of batter (hopefully you like that style). The plate is huge too and I ended up taking half home. The plate comes with biscuits which are ok but tastes like it was cooked a while ago, which is funny since I was there as soon as the kitchen opened at 5pm. The Mac and cheese also seemed to have been made a day ago and was lukewarm. Thankfully it reheats nicely but you don't come to the Commodore to eat food the next day. The atmosphere is that of a typical dingy bar and definitely felt like a low rent place. This feels like a late, late night place. Overall the chicken was great but everything else was eh.

Dive bars don't get much better. Find your own seating took a sec but wasn't terrible. Spicy chicken sando was so flavorful and the chicken was crispy/juicy! Drinks were strong

We finally made the pilgrimage to the Commodore for their chicken sandwich during a mini food and drink crawl in Williamsburg. I had a Pilsner will we waited for the sandwich. The atmosphere has a welcoming, local feel. We had the sandwich mild. I'd recommend medium or hot. Lots on a sesame seed bun with shredded lettuce and cucumbers. Chicken is juicy and crispy. I believe a light application of mayo. There were two single occupancy restrooms. Bartender was very quick and our food order came out fairly quickly too.

We looked up a places for Frozen drinks & this was one of the options that came up so we decided to give it a try. we came in & sat at the bar, the place is not very big inside & there wasn't any other seating open. Drinks we started with the Frozen Mojitos they were great, nice taste good on the alcohol. also, tried the The Piña colada not bad but a bit too sweat for my taste so we Stuck with the Mojito. On the food we tried the Grilled cheese sandwich totally hit the spot after a few drinks, nice & buttery good amount of cheese & it wasn't crazy spicy. Since we were seating at the bar , service was good & quick, good music playing cool chill vibe here. Overall we definitely enjoyed our drinks, the Frozen Mojito was great.

This spot is known well known for their fried chicken, which are super crispy and juicy. We came here after dinner for drinks, but we couldn't help but get the Fried Chicken Plate ($20) to try even though we were full already. The fried chicken plate come with 3 large pieces of chicken thigh deep fried in such a crispy batter. This is definitely one of the best fried chicken I have had. It also comes with a honey butter and two hot sauces that pair well along with the 3 mini biscuits. I definitely need to come back to try the fried chicken sandwich too. For drinks, there is a nice selection of tiki cocktails. I opted for the Old Fashioned ($16), which was extremely strong. For all service, make your order for food and drinks at the bar. This spot is half bar and half restaurant, which is quite interesting in the dark atmosphere inside. On the outside, there's also a bunch of lawn chairs and tables to enjoy as well. Definitely a busy spot, but get the fried chicken!

Stopped by to try the chicken sandwich, which was recommended to us. While the sando wasn't too spicy, it was very flavorful and paired great with the half sour pickles that came on it. The vibe here is pretty chill, like being on island time! Lots of frozen drink cocktail options, which is perfect for a hot spring / summer day in NYC. The prices were fairly reasonable (some cheap beer options) and the service was friendly too. Will be back again!

Came with a group of 4 at around 10:30 on a weeknight and the place was packed, but we managed to grab a booth (thanks to a friendly employee who was looking out for us). I got a frozen pina colada, and we shared burgers, queso and fries. Burger was absolutely fantastic, and the queso was perfect. Fried were also great. The cocktail was the only meh thing, so I'll try other drinks next time. Overall, the Commodore is a great bar with particularly awesome food!! I need to get the fried chicken next time. 4.5 stars.

I've been seeing this fried chicken sammy a-lot lately in my feed and thought this snowy week was a nice time to try it out! First, it was huge. Definitely two meals for me but would also be good to share with a friend. They have a Hot, medium and Mild option. I ordered the hot breast and loved the spice and cook on my chicken. It was coated really nicely and still very juicy. The coleslaw is very finely chopped which is perfect for this over the top sandwich. It definitely had a move vinegar-y flavor than other FCS I've had, but I personally enjoyed it. I also loved their chips and queso, you can't find very many spots in the city that serve white queso dio! My friend ordered the Mild sandwich and liked it but thought hers was a bit dry, I'm not sure if this is because hers didn't come with coleslaw on it. Drinks were good and the overall atmosphere was awesome. I love that this is a dive bar with good food. You'd think those are a dime a dozen but this place is definitely a gem. 4.5/5
