29 Best Cocktail Bars in Bronx

“I went here after work for a friend's birthday because it was close to my job.

The reason why I knocked off one star is because they weren't upfront about gratuity automatically being included on the check. We were two people who sat at the bar. We had two drinks each and one appetizer each. While the food was very tasty and authentic, it was very small for the prices. The drinks were mostly ice, and the margaritas were very sour. I watched them make the drinks and me being trained as a bartender. I could tell they were kinda just winging how they made the drinks. I noticed several times that they added more ice to drinks when they didn't measure enough of the liquor and the rest of the mixers to make multiple drinks. I get that it's happy hour, and things have gone up, but to pay $12 or $13 on happy hour drinks using cheap well tequila for a few sips through the straw is not cool.

I'm a good tipper, I don't like the fact that the tip was automatic. I like to choose what I'm going to tip based on service.

I would most likely not go back here.

My friend said that the place used to be called something else in the past. It seems to be family own and run, which is nice. I loved the decor, too.“

“Staff was very polite, friendly and the food was great and fresh. I highly recommend.“

“Look on Yelp for an extensive review.“

“Chill location in Bronx, near Arthur Ave.

Tacos were perfect, frozen margarita were from another league and churros were amazing.
To add, service was fast and you always feel like your being served by a relative and not a stranger.

To add it all, pricing is a great value with respect to quality and service.

100% would come back“

“Wife and I flew into JFK late one Friday. We were famished , it was 1030 by the time we got to Arthur Ave.. We parked and walked , came upon people eating alfresco. We asked if any place was still serving. The "MAN" Vic asked what we would like, from one of the tables. In no time we had a bottle of Vino Tinto in front of us and people were making us try food they were dining on. I felt like I was at my friends ,' THE PIAZZAS " house. The food was excellent and the people better. Can not wait to go back !“

“My favorite dish is Chicken martini. My wife loves the Pesto Ravioli and Risotto. Super clean place. Will eat here again and bring family.“

“Great food and cool ambiance!“

“Tobala is so worth the visit! We decided to give Tobala a try and we were not disappointed. The initial entry was warm and inviting, and we were immediately seated. The ambiance was romantic and cozy and the layout was efficient and flowy.
The playlist was great, the service was excellent and the food was impeccably delicious! We almost did not want to disturb it. Everything was spot-on!
The appetizers were small , but fresh, tasty and delish! The entrees were a bit larger in portion, delicious and filling! The prices were steep, but this place serves authentic high quality foods. We were glad that we chose Tobala for our date night! We enjoyed the desserts— the bunuela and the tres leches, I preferred the center of my tres leches not be so distinctively orange-flavored.
We plan to return to Tobala, it was worth the trip!“

“I placed an order with Frankie’s today, and they were a little backed up because of all the orders they had. The management team was very accommodating and apologetic when my food came out late. I truly appreciate their professionalism and hospitality. The food was amazing, and I’ll definitely be back. Thank you for the great service!“

“Amazing food and a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a little slice of Puerto Rico! The flavors are authentic, and every bite takes me right back to my island. The owners have poured so much love into the new location, beautifully painting different stories that showcase the rich history of Puerto Rico. Their dedication to creating a welcoming environment is evident in every detail. I also deeply respect how involved they are with the community—it’s inspiring to see a business so committed to making a positive impact. Highly recommend!“

“Literally one the tastiest places I’ve been in NYC and I’ve been plenty of times and have had a lot of food. The potion size was amazing and the flavors were on point. I still think of the rice to this day! Most certainly a must try.“

“The restaurant is great, staff very friendly & helpful in food & drink suggestions. Lovely deco, clean well managed. Menu selections are extremely delicious. Saturday night DJ play music which helps the vibe & have a fun evening.“

“Love this restaurant!! I found out about it when it first opened, then went for my birthday and ever since then my boyfriend and I keep going especially anytime we want a real good sizzling steak. The drinks are tasteful and delicious. The service is AMAZING !!! I really can’t complain about this restaurant and the decor is just timeless elegance. Keep up the great work !!“

“I had so much fun. The music, endless mimosas was awesome, but I will say I was disappointed with the steak and eggs I ordered. I asked for the steak to be cooked medium rare and it came out medium well. The took it back and a couple of minutes later brought out what appeared to be the same exact steak cooked medium well and the eggs were cold. It’s like they thought I wouldn’t notice??? So, if you like your steak on the rare side DO NOT order the steak and eggs. Order anything else in the menu and you probably won’t be disappointed. Other than the steak, everything else was great!“

“Staff was very polite, friendly and the food was great and fresh. I highly recommend.“

“Took sailing lessons with Jeff. He was an excellent instructor“

“love this best kept secret“

“Atik Restaurant offers an unforgettable dining experience where exceptional cuisine meets artistry. The food and drinks are crafted with remarkable quality, while the ambience—complete with enchanting lights and graceful dancers—feels truly magical. Conveniently located with nearby parking, it’s the perfect setting for a special occasion. Highly recommended.“

“Amazing experience from start to finish. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the staff were very attentive throughout the evening. Chef Alfredo truly stood out—everything was perfectly prepared. I will definitely be coming back!“

“The service and food is amazing! Love the vibe“

“Best spot in The Bronx 🔥🙏🏾“

“The Henny colada was a 10/10. Went on a Saturday live Dj although kind of loud was an added vibe to this place. The service was amazing. I got the Deep ocean for 1 58$ definitely NOT worth the price could have been a 25/30$ price. The food portions do not add up. It’s a cute place for a simple outing.“

“The DJ at Last Stop Bar & Grill deserves a serious shoutout! This person has a truly keen ear for good music—the mix was absolute fire and kept the energy high all night. If you're looking for a loud, vibrant party atmosphere, this is definitely the place for you.
​On the food front, the Chicken and Waffles were absolutely delicious—crispy, savory, and sweet perfection. My brother also really enjoyed that they serve hookah.
​Now for the constructive criticism: while the vibe is great, the music is extremely loud, so be prepared for a high decibel night. More importantly, the pricing for the drinks outside of happy hour is ridiculously high for the small size you receive. I also found the pictures of the drinks on their digital menu to be quite deceiving in terms of actual size and presentation.
​Overall: Great music, excellent chicken & waffles, and a fun party spot (with hookah!), but be mindful of the noise level and the non-happy hour drink prices/sizes.“

“excelente ambiente buenas comida karioqui“

“We made a reservation about one week before the dinner date, because the event was to celebrate my wife's birthday and securing the reservation was essential to our plan. While we drove from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, Amanda at Aqua called to discuss the menu, which had changed from our previous visit a year ago. That was an amazing effort on her part, and that made my wife and me feel like royalty. Amanda arranged with Chef to prepare a Ceasar salad and black cod (two dishes that we had enjoyed in 2025) even though they were not on the menu. At dinner, we presented ourselves exactly at 6:30 pm and were seated immediately. Although the Hilton complex was awash in CES attendees, Aqua was not crowded, and service was prompt. We opened a bottle of San Pelegrino, and then enjoyed delicious salad and crab cakes., followed by foie gras, which we had also enjoyed in 2025. The only complaint we had was that the foie gras was undercooked -- which was immediately addressed by Chef preparing another plate of fully-cooked foie gras, and Aqua deducted the foie gras from our tab. The main dish of black cod was likewise delicious, but the nutrient-dense protein items did not leave room for dessert. With a generous tip, the bill totaled $138 (the foie gras was comped). Despite the foie gras bobble, our dining experience at Aqua certainly equaled our inaugural visit in 2025. We can heartily recommend Aqua --dining there will make a special occasion absolutely fantastic, Any future Las Vegas visit will include another shot at the royal treatment with Aqua.“

“Great place, great service and food. Great drinks.“

“This past Monday, my friend and went to 161 Bar and Grille a few hours before a Yankee game. This was was the first I had been to the place, and everything was great. The food was amazing and our waitress Joanna was very knowledgeable about the food and had a great sense of humor and also had a great personality, she made what was already a great experience dining here even better. I hope to return to eat here when I see another Yankee game.“
