Ayza is a favorite restaurant for my friends and family. Although I skipped the Chocolate Martini for which the restaurant is known; Prosecco and appetizers were a delicious alternative. We sat in the outdoor heated space. I have also eaten in the trolley acquired during the initial stages of the pandemic. The indoor space is small but most tables seat four people comfortably. I visit Ayza every time I visit NY. I highly recommend this space for fun.

Was in need of a simple healthy dinner after work. Sat at bar which was small but comfortable. Ambiance was perfect. Light house music playing and volume was appropriate for lounge conversation. Ordered goat cheese salad with glass of New Zealand Sauvignon blanc. Perfect temperature. The salad had a subtle truffle infused dressing which matched the wine fantastically. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and wine. Service was great. I'd highly recommend this place for the single traveler or couple looking for the entire package.

Really nice date spot. The lighting is low and the vibe is elegant and cozy.. as soon as we walked in the waiter offered us a sample of sangria which was a nice surprise. It was delicious so we ended up getting full sizes. For food we got cacio e Pepe, chicken tacos, and truffle pizza. The tacos were amazing.. really well flavored. For dessert we got the fondue which comes with either 4 or 6 dipping items. They range from fruits to brownies and pretzels. The only downsides about this was that the chocolate was cold when it to us and took a while to warm up, and by then we were half way through. It would've been nice to come warm and be able to enjoy it while it's in liquid form. Other than that, it was definitely a good experience and I can see myself coming back!

This place is very nice but very small. There is one bathroom for everyone and the lights there are very dim. It looks larger on the pictures than reality. We enjoyed our avocado rolls and dumplings on the patio. It is a very limited menu for food and drinks. The positive is that it is very cute and they have a train caboose that you can also dine in on the street.

What a beautiful place inside and out! Lovely service, comfy seating and knockout drinks!We got everything on their chocolate martini menu among the 8 of us and all of us found something we loved. Mine are in the order from favorite to not so favorite:1. Strawberry: for the girls who like not too strong sweet tasting drinks2. Hazelnut: for those who like strong but sweet tasting drinks3. Raspberry: less sweet and less strong but very unique4. Espresso: classic drink5. Peppermint: very subtle peppermint6. Original: very very strongIn food, we didn't try much but absolutely loved the spinach artichoke dip!
The host was passive aggressive and implied that we were 8 mins late (out of a 15 min grace period) even though we arrived on time and waited for him to seat a table of four. The waitress took around 20 mins to take our orders, so my table waited for a long time to order a drink. The same waitress then rushed us with the check and kept asking about it every 2-3 minutes.

Phenomenal wine bar! Fabulous desserts with chocolate pairings & brunch was amazing! Highly recommend! OH! And they make their own tomato juice for the Bloody Mary’s! Game changer ❤️
Delicious chocolate cocktails! I regret not staying longer for happy hour, but the food completely blew me away. Highly recommend the burger and chocolate martini & chocolate fondu! Can't wait to come back for more."

If you love chocolate it’s a nice bar with a nice atmosphere for couples. We ordered the crape layer but we didn’t like it.

The place is so cute, the chocolate martinis were delicious, and the food was all great. The owner/host was INCREDIBLE, managing to switch our table mid-meal to accommodate us and being so kind throughout. A highlight of my weekend in this area.
Great place for a drink with friends or for a date too. They welcome you with a spicy mould wine. The hazelnut chocolate martini was really nice and you could actually taste chocolate and the nuts. It was paired with a chocolate truffle A bit pricey for dinner, but I had the olives for starter and the white truffle pizza as main. Food is good quality. They didn’t have the molten cake, so I took the cheesecake with the chocolate fondue. Everything with chocolate is just their best. Highly recommended

Extremely disappointing experience...my party had a reservation to celebrate a birthday and we were seated 40 minutes late. The owner was very rude, the food and drinks were ok but overpriced, and the tables were crowded/uncomfortable. I would not recommend celebrating a special event here, as it was very stressful and not enjoyable.

OMG!!!!! I think this just became my new favorite restaurant. The vibe was cool, the ambiance was perfect. The food was fresh and the service was outstanding. The Lychee Martinis were soooo good. The three cheese charcuterie board was amazing, one of the Cheeses on the board resemble a flower and it was one of the best cheeses I've ever had. I arrived at 7pm EST and left right before they were closing. I had a wonderful night. I am definitely coming back.
