Hector was our server and he was incredibly knowledgeable and top tier. Vibes, art, and the drinks were lovely - and so was Hector.

Showed up at 12:15am and was told after a lot of confusion on why I was there in the first place that they had already done last call and were closing early tonight…. Stuffy and pretentious.

Really nice lounge vibe at Clemente Bar. It is an intimate space that feels tucked away in a good way it is very cozy without being too cramped. The cocktail list is well put together and the bartenders know what they're doing. The small dishes were well presented and hit the spot and make for good for pairing with drinks.

Came for the vibrant, neo-expressionist surreal folk art but, all I kept thinking about were the Angles. Seated in the middle of the back wall on an ottoman, it felt as if you were squatting 20” off the floor as your hips sat below your knee’s. Looked to my right to see a gentleman against the wall laying awkwardly crooked at a 170 angle with his feet on the floor. To my left were two young women snapping cell phone pictures at every item brought to them, selfies included. Mind Enterprises heard overhead while three attentive servers navigated the room seeming slightly robotic. Watching these servers bending at the waist straight legged to 90 degrees placing drinks down on low tables made me wonder how high their chiropractic bills were. First round, Army Brat, unbalanced, rather sweet with two squares of fruit rollups plopped on top the ice cube. Second round, Clemente Martini, Briney, hints of kaffir, green chili, balanced and smooth. Third round, Calvados, served in a rocks glass? The fine Aromatics were lost in this wide mouthed vessel. This 3 star review is in the minority here but, when dropping $30+ per pour all in, I want to feel comfortable in the space, have a balanced drink in my hand and served in a glass that doesn’t detract from the hard work of the farmer or the distiller.

Love the intimate atmosphere here. Their drinks are creative and the snacks are so delicious and filling even though they’re meat-free. I loved their Negroni colada and the army brat drinks. And the thrice fried potatoes, mushroom burger, the endive goddess, and avocado inari pockets are all delicious.

Great for dates or meeting with clients after work.

Hands down one of the best cocktail bars in NYC. Clemente feels like a second home at this point.

Love the entire menu but if I had to pick 2 drinks, I’d always order the Negroni Colada and the Koji Café. Top notch cocktails and awesome hospitality.
