Such a beautiful brunch spot with "$32 PRIX-FIXE SPECIAL: Includes 1.5 Hours Unlimited Brunch Cocktails* with any Entree**" **"any" meaning most, with the exception of a few which you have to pay more for. You have the choice between Spiked Iced Tea, Mimosa, and Bellini, and you don't have to commit to one drink. Food was okay, nothing to rave about; I got the Ainslie burger. The ambiance was very lively, as it was very packed and club-like music was playing. This slowed down the service, and my party waited a while before our empty brunch cocktail pitchers were replaced (hence cutting into our 1.5 hours of unlimited drinks).

I visited Ainslie for brunch with a couple of girlfriends one Saturday. What a cool venue nestled in the heart of Williamsburg! Ainslie is the jack of all trades - wine bar, beer garden, brunch hotspot, outdoor seating, etc. They also have an upstairs area and a rooftop that looked pretty cool, but that wasn't open when we were there sadly. We were seated in the back of the restaurant, which felt like you were walking into an enchanted garden. There was greenery all around you, all the way up to the high windowed ceiling. It felt like you were outside since the ceiling was an opaque glass, but you're indeed covered and sheltered from the elements. Really outstanding ambiance! The service was quite good as well. Someone came over quickly and got us started with drinks. I was looking at my glass because there appeared to be some lip gloss stuck to it, and one of the waitresses who wasn't assigned to our table, saw me looking and immediately brought me over a fresh glass! Ainslie is an Italian restaurant, so they have a good selection of pastas, pizzas, and other Italian-influenced dishes. I was very impressed with the brunch menu. They have bottomless mimosas/bellinis/spiked iced teas plus an entrée for $32. You're able to switch between the three cocktail options, but it's served in a pitcher for the table everyone has to agree on the same drink each round and everyone has to do the prix-fixe. For the food, while some of the options do require an upcharge, 90% of the menu is included within the prix-fixe menu. There are traditional brunch options like omelets and benedicts, lunch options like salads and burgers, and of course pizzas and pastas. I got the Boscaiola pizza, which is the truffle mushroom one. Quite gopod and definitely large enough to share! We also ordered the Mesclun salad with chicken, which changes its greens based on what they have that day. The chicken on the salad was flavored very well. I can't nail down the specific herb but it had a very tangy and fresh taste. The last entrée was the benedict. This was probably our least favorite of the entrees, kind of bland and a bit bready as it was served on thick focaccia. I would definitely recommend Ainslie, especially for brunch. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because it was quite loud in the room we were in. $32 for bottomless drinks and food, and in NYC nonetheless, is a fantastic deal, and the service and ambiance are top notch!

Went here for for my bday brunch with my friends. The service was amazing, the pizza was so yummy, And the bottomless was perfect

What a fabulous brunch spot. Very busy, but they do reservations. thankfully they had immediate seating on the patio and it wasn't too hot so I sat there with no issues. Staff are friendly and services was fast. Full bar with tons of specialty drink options. My vegetarian order was the Margherita pizza and a side of fries!

Excellent and solid spot for brunch. The food and service was excellent. I got the personal carafe for my mimosas and that was $30 on its own. The food was great, I got the eggs Benedict and the ham was smoked beautifully. Pancakes were good and are soft and light. I would go back for their bacon-suck good quality. Overall a great spot I would come back to.

Great place for a brunch! Came here for my cousins birthday on June 2nd and it was great. The food was delicious, the cocktails I told were great as well from those who drank at our table. The only thing I was upset about is they had no iced coffee but other than I do not have a complaint. The service was great, the waitress, the bus boy, the hostess all were very professional and polite. The bill was reasonable and the food was delicious, I definitely will be coming back and recommending this restaurant to others. I pick my husband up from the L train around the corner all the time and passed the location and never noticed how big the place actually was by just driving by. The decor and ambiance reminds me of enchanted forest. Completely gorgeous!!! The rustic furniture and map out of the whole place is beyond beautiful! The back area has a roof that they closed due to the heat and sunning shinning down I assume irritating guests. Also was told there is an upstairs part. Definitely a great space and a great time!

I came here for bottomless brunch with friends Saturday morning. We had a reservation at 11:45 am but we weren't able to be seated until our entire party had arrived. This is such a beautiful place! There's the front dining room with a bar. There's a back dining room with a bar and an upstairs dining room. I love the vibes here. There's a DJ on the first floor. Everyone needs to participate in bottomless (regardless of alcoholic or not). 2 people in my group didn't drink so they got pineapple, orange, and grapefruit juices. It's $32 a person. You could be charged an additional amount depending on the entree you get. What we ordered: - Meatball panini: it came with a side salad and I liked this a lot and felt it was worth the price ($32) - Caesar salad - truffle fries: these were mid and I would pass on ordering these - omelette - steak and eggs For the drinks, we got Bellinis, minimosas, and iced tea. We all loved everything we got! Service was pretty good too and they were attentive. I would definitely come back!

In starting this review, I just remembered what I ate at Ainslie and I am now so pressed to figure out how soon I can revisit. For the unlimited brunch drinks, I was pretty disappointed in the options because the Spiked Iced Tea was made with Vodka (a big no), the Bellini was out, and the Prosecco in the mimosa was a little flat. The cocktails were better but not an options for unlimited. The food however, had me head over heels. I chose the Orecchiette (with chicken) and my table split the Wood Fired Rosemary Wings. WOW. Those wings are what earned Ainslie a spot on my Favorite Wing Spots Yelp Collection! Writing about them right now has me craving them and wishing I could recreate them in the wood fired oven that I do not have in my house lol. Aside from recommending that people try both of these dishes, my only recommendation would be to make a reservation ahead of time. Even with reservations, my party of 6 had almost a 30 min wait on a Sunday at 2 pm. I'm glad the wings were worth the wait but going forward, I would probably opt for going during a way less hectic time where I'm not awkwardly hovering over a table eating while trying to dodge large tray laden servers as well as other guests trying to catch and ride the vibe.

Love everything about this awesome vibes establishment. If a six star review was allowed, Ainslie be scored as such. This is by far the best place to dine, mingle and just enjoy a great time. Oh did I mention they serve up great Italian food all around with some of the friendliest staff. This is truly a MUST in Williamsburg.
