Don’t get fooled by Lil Deb’s kitschy exterior, the kitchen and cocktails are nothing to play with. As many have said on here already, the Fried fish is a showstopper. The earthy, spicy, sumac crusted skin provides a nice satisfying crunch to the buttery soft fish underneath.

What surprised me the most could easily have been an afterthought of an amuse bouche- the nam prik with the shrimp chips. A near perfect bite that explodes with umami balanced beautifully with acidity and complemented by the crunchy shrimp chip. The two separately, are good, but combined together are heaven.

Even if you’re just going for a drink and a snack, Lil Deb’s won’t disappoint. The cocktails are exceptionally crafted and come with no glitz, glam or frills- somewhat counterintuitive to the decor of the space. Where you might expect some large, fruity tiki drink to match the hot pink of the walls, Lil Deb’s will hand you a Shishito Martini in a stubby lowball glass.

Lil Deb’s defies the perception that it creates for itself- a perfect analogy for the community that it beckons too. A fun, fantastic space that will not only serve a vibe, but a mouthwatering dish as well.

Special shoutout to our wonderful bartender Spike. My GF and I felt immediately welcome and at home there- all thanks to Spike!

Visited for dinner a Friday evening in late August. Had a very good meal here overall. Sat outside, in the garden area, which seemed much nicer compared to the outdoor seating on the street. Quite an eclectic and colourful menu. We tried a bunch of dishes and enjoyed them quite a bit. I was a little bummed to see a local beer from Suarez costs nearly $13 for a can but perhaps that’s just how it is these days. Service was efficient, workmanlike. It’s quite a popular venue so booking ahead seems necessary. We enjoyed our visit and would return.

Oasis was an absolutely incredible experience all the way around. Our service was swift, and the atmosphere in and around the establishment is relaxed and inviting. Our food was impeccable! The drinks…incredible! The chef and staff were so pleasant and we are bringing more of our friends next time we visit…and will try the deserts next time too. If you’re looking for a restaurant that has values for a liberated world and delicious food this is the place for you!

I’ve had the pleasure of dining here more than once now and have found every dish and drink a complete DELIGHT of the senses!!!!! I think my favorite things they do are care of their staff and support the community with food love inclusion and $. More restaurants and businesses can absolutely operate this way and should, thank you LDO for leading by example.

I’ll add that the prices are so reasonable given the evident skill love quality and creativity that have gone into the menu. Everything is delicious and different. Sharing many plates is encouraged and it’s definitely more fun!

order the chef’s kiss if you wanna giggle. Liam gives amazing love advice (menu item). Good job everybody every time!

Nice vibes, sure. But the food was mediocre at best and overpriced. The tamal and empanada lacked flavor. The “aguachile” shrimp was nothing like an aguachile dish (which is fine just don’t call it that) and also lacked flavor. The chicken mole dish was the best one but at over $30 for two pieces of chicken, and long wait, it wasn’t worth it. The wait for food was incredibly long. It was fun to watch naked men dance outdoors while getting soaked in water on tv for 30 minutes but after an hour it got boring.

As a number of reviewers have noted: great vibes, below average food, unreasonably high prices for the quality of food. My take — Great atmosphere. Cool, chill vibe. Good music at a good volume. Def fun spot. Very friendly staff, but service is slow. Clearly understaffed. Orders take far too long. Or they come out in seconds suggesting premade pre chilled oxidized food. Food is hit and miss. Plantains are solid. Decent crust, flavorful. Sauce was limpid. Mussels are ok. Sauce is good but mussels lack flavor. Olive cake was average, seemed to be premade a while ago, and whipped cream was canned.
Overall worth a try, maybe; but the prices…Manhattan-level prices for Hudson Valley?!?! Really? Not any where near NYC cuisine. Not even close.
Best part: Spike is great.

I have been coming here a few times a year since 2021 and the food consistently wows me. The menu is seasonal and their recipes intentionally funky. If you like meals that are transformative this place is probably right up your alley
