Large varied menu for a sports bar styled restaurant. Food was great. Very close to the Knockdown Center so convenient for concerts.

This was our first time at ECB. We picked it for its proximity to Knockdown Center. Everything was fantastic. We were warmly greeted when we entered. The owner even made a stop by the table to chat and check on us. The food was delicious (get the garlic truffle fries) and the cocktails were very well prepared. We don't often get to that part of Queens but we will definitely return! We HAVE to try the brick oven pizza - the ones delivered around us looked amazing!

We were seated in the side venue …. We got there and not too much going on …. Came for a birthday celebration before LCD sound system at knockdown center . It is one of the only restaurants walking distance … reviews seemed good…. Figured would get some pizzas and head over ….as the crowd came in there was no waitress to be found . We received our food without napkins or utensils …. The poor waitress was serving the bar area as well which was connected through the kitchen …. Ordered a beer , took half hour … couldn’t get the check ask the cooks for it in the kitchen …. Got my own forks from the kitchen and napkins …. They did finally bring some but after the fact . Understaffed for sure … I would think on a night of a show they would have more hands … we had friends seated in the bar area that had same problem …food was served cold because they couldn’t serve it when it came out …. We thought it would be fun way to celebrate 25 … we ran out of there

Had a great time at ECB before the LCD Soundsystem show. We sat in the side/banquet room, which was nice. Staff was attentive and friendly. The food was awesome all around. Drinks were good. 5/5 experience, would return.
