when my husband and i had our civil ceremony we decided to come to Elsa’s for drinks with close friends and family. let me tell you, it did not disappoint. we decided to ring in the new year at this special place and once again, it was amazing. great cocktail, service, and atmosphere.

We came here on a Sunday night and were really disappointed. The service was just whatever — not attentive, not welcoming. The margarita and the gin gimlet were honestly awful. When the bartender asked how the drinks were, I told her they weren’t good. She said she’d try to remake something decent… and then completely ignored us after that.
You can tell this is one of those places that gets good reviews early on and then stops caring. Feels more like they’re just coasting, serving shitty beers and cheap, poorly made drinks without much concern for the experience. Definitely won’t be back

Ok drinks, service is practically nonexistent. Staffs just chatting up with each other. The server didn’t pour us any water, not even once. Not sure why they’re there besides taking order and brining drinks.

Art Deco dining out masterpiece. From the bar, to the drinks, to the food, and even to the bathrooms (and the doors!). Cozy, classy, and staff that are so helpful a kind. Perfect for date night or friends night!
The cutest bar! The bartenders were super friendly, and I absolutely loved the atmosphere. All the cocktails we tried were amazing. The cheeseboard was a bit pricey for the portion size, but it still tasted delicious.

If you’re someone who truly appreciates a well-crafted cocktail — the kind where every detail is intentional and the experience feels just a bit magical — Elsa Bar in Brooklyn is your destination.
Tucked away with a quiet confidence, Elsa doesn’t shout for attention, it simply delivers excellence. The cocktails here are, without exaggeration, some of the best in New York City. Thoughtfully balanced, creative without being gimmicky, and consistently elegant — this place is for those who deserve a great drink and know how to appreciate one.
