I’ve been to Donna twice so far and both times have been a delicious experience with cool & sexy vibes. From the decor, the food, the craft cocktails, and the awesomely friendly staff, everything is on point!
MUST TRY: •Chips w/ guacamole & pico 🥑 •Popcorn chicken 🍗(we ordered it twice last night 🤤) • Birria tacos 🌮 • Chicken Tinga tacos 🌮 • Cuban Frita Beef sliders 🍔 •Croquettes 🧀 • Orange Dream 🍹 (refreshing & the perfect blend of citrus with a light sweetness) • That’s Amore 🍸 (a dirty martini’s herbaceous sister) • El Taquito 🍍(mezcal w/ avocado & pineapple… don’t know how, but it works! We were told this is a weekend special, try it if you visit on the weekend.)
We were having such a great time (and hungry) that I forgot to take pics, but for sure will be back with an update! Buen provecho!

This spot for drinks and superior food is like no other! Date night, boys night, girls night, whatevah! The guac, popcorn chicken, beef sliders, drinks....all of it is an experience!!! Packed and vibes are top notch. Can't wait to come again!!

Our favorite bar in NYC! Great ambiance, fantastic food & drink, and incredible service. It's the perfect place to meet-up with friends or spend a date night. The team at Donna is the best.

Really bummed because for the second time, they added an extra drink to our bill that we never ordered or received. I assumed it was just a mix up the first time, but now it feels like this is a pattern to maybe increase the bill totals? Most recently, the bill said “Lo-fi Paloma (Bar DO NOT MAKE)”, so we couldn’t figure out how it was a mistake since they only ever intended to charge for the drink... Our server was not apologetic and visibly annoyed when we asked about it. Drinks were ok, but the service was not. It’s easy to walk into Donna, compared to a lot of nearby spots, but for now it’s worth it to wait for somewhere else. Hopefully this issue can be sorted out, because the location is cute and some of the employees really seemed like they were nice

Intimate atmosphere, great drinks, and wonderful service. Will be back!
We got a few different drinks, my favorite being the one I got, That’s Amore, was surprisingly fire (despite my usual preference for sweeter drinks)

I’m confused on the vibe of this place. Bad space planning, the bar in the middle is too narrow to have people or couples stand on both sides, leaves a weird white space in the place.

the perfect noise level, AMAZING vibes, and such good drinks!! came here to catch up with a friend i haven’t seen in over a year, but would be so perf for a date. wait staff is not overbearing but also attentive. one of my fave bars in nyc and def want to come back.
came here on a wednesday evening and it wasn’t too crowded!
it says the place closes at 11 but they started being aggressive with the checks close to 10 and it cleared out by 10, so i wasn’t really sure what the hours were
Good drinks, good food, really wonderful server called Phoenix. Surprisingly not crowded. Very cool that it’s worker owned.

Warm, friendly, cozy, great music and acoustics, and a short but perfect menu. And, phenomenal drinks. And, Duralex glasses -- that company just became a worker-owned co-op too!!

Donna's is a cute and trendy place. Perfect for a first, second, or third date. I really like the decor, the plants, the ugly chairs, and the interior. The vibe here takes you to a Mexican summer in New York. I ordered the Sporty Scary drink, we had guacamole pico de gallo, avocado tostada, grilled chicken tostada, and churros. A very cute place to enjoy bite sized snacks and cocktails. My favorites are the guacamole, chips and churros! I could have ordered 3 batches of churros because they were SO GOOD. Everything tasted so fresh, healthy and delicious. The portions of the appetizers, entrees and desserts are perfect and can be shared by 2 people. Everything was delicious.

Nice cozy place, a bit too loud for me though

Best nachos we’ve ever had. On life.
