“We are never disappointed when we stop here when we visit NYC. Atmosphere and food is always fantastic and they make killer Manhattans. We just went for the 2023 Rockefeller tree and the staff was pleasant and accommodating. so happy they were decorated for the holidays. 100% go to in our opinion.“

“Cool atmosphere, kind of tight/crowded but doable. The burger is sublime. Truly delicious, a nice crunchy bit as a patty topper and the patty was cooked perfectly! The parmesan squash pasta was...magic. Truly a treat spot. Wander around the inviting surrounding area if you're waiting to be seated...you'll be glad you waited and got your spot!“

“great food, great staff not to be missed“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of My Favorite Korean Restaurants! Seoul BAP is not just another Korean restaurant — the food is absolutely amazing! Every dish is full of rich, authentic Korean flavors with a modern twist. It’s truly one of the best Korean dining spots in the city. The cocktail menu is just as exciting — featuring creative drinks that perfectly match the vibe and flavor of the food. 🍹 Spicy Passionfruit Margarita – bold and vibrant with a Korean-inspired kick. 🥃 Bourbon Bee Hive – smooth, rich, and full of depth. 💜 Lavender Skies – crafted with premium gin infused with butterfly pea flower and lavender, finished with a touch of Amaro — simply elegant. And the newest favorite everyone’s asking for: 🌺 Midnight Hibiscus – a hibiscus-infused vodka cocktail with elderflower and gentle sweetness. It’s beautifully balanced and pairs perfectly with Seoul BAP’s contemporary Korean cuisine. Best enjoyed with Taylor Swift’s Opalite playing in the background! 🎶✨ Come check out Seoul BAP — where Seoul meets style, flavor, and good vibes all in one place.“

“I was so impressed by ARIARI! Every dish was full of fresh, vibrant flavors and beautifully plated. The seafood and grilled items really stood out — everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. The staff were super friendly and attentive, and the vibe of the place is modern yet comfortable. Such a great spot for dinner with friends or a nice date night! 🍶🍤✨“

“Delicious food and specialty drinks. I love when DJ Cindy Kim plays. Great music to go with the beautiful atmosphere.“

“No venue is as old school as Old Town Bar. No TVs and no loud music just great drinks and great food. We visited during the great snowstorm of 2026 and in the middle of all the snow, we got outstanding wings and potato leek soup to go with our drinks. We went for dry wings with buffalo sauce on the side and they were so good we ordered two more portions. We also enjoyed the tenders but the wings were better. The chili was also yummy and we’ll be back with or without the snow.“

“We went there for a union get together. It was nice.“

The drinks are awesome, and the space and atmosphere are great. I’ve also been here for comedy show nights, which are always a lot of fun.

“Without a doubt my favourite bar in New York. Good food, great beer and a brilliant atmosphere. If there was such a thing as a Cheers Bar in New York this would be it. The bartender Colin makes everyone feel like Norm and you’re just a friend who came round for a drink. Can’t recommend enough.“

“Hosted a birthday party here and the experience was amazing from start to finish. Christine and Meg made the planning so easy and were so incredibly kind. On the night of the party, Tony and Elisa (sp?) and the rest of the GM team gave us an amazing evening! We will be back — thank you Gin Mill!“

“Great service… good food.“

“The District, located on the UES of Manhattan on 3rd Avenue, is such a great spot!! :-) I visited for the first time this weekend and I had the best experience!! Dara, Nick & the team at The District are so wonderful - my friends & I were so well taken care of during our visit!! In terms of food cocktails, they make an excellent spicy margarita, and their appetizers are delicious. I highly recommend their Homemade Mozzarella Sticks! Lastly, The District has such a lovely atmosphere - it's so warm + cozy inside. 10/10 - I highly recommend this place!!“

“Had a great late breakfast complete with Mimosas and Alfie’s Amber Ale- all served by our awesome bartender Niamh from Ireland!!!“

“Bangia is a Korean bar and restaurant with vibes that lasts and stick. Once those doors open, you already know it’s going to be a long fun night. They got creative drinks fused with fun Korean flavors that’s an absolute blast to quench down. Bangia does not have your typical bar food but an impressive menu of classic Korean dishes with a twist. We talking about real food that makes you drinking for hours. For a limited time during Valentine’s Day week, come in show some love with your partner, and they will show you both love with a dessert and two shots to share!“

“Great atmosphere and genuinely attentive service. The Lemon Pepper Curry wings are a standout. They're unique, crispy, and packed with flavor. Other favorites: the Curry Chicken Quesadilla and the Char Siu BBQ Pork Fried Rice. If you’re having a cocktail and like bourbon, order the Super Strawberry Smash Bros. All around a fantastic spot. I’ll be back.“

“Cannot fault, walked in after a walk around Central Park and Paddy & Sonya(?) made me instantly feel welcome. Great hospitality from the outset, to the point I felt at home (UK, not quite Ireland). Highly recommend, especially if you love a bite of banter. Great place to visit in NYC“

“A ideal quiet spot in Midtown East in the late afternoon, probably the only one with all the construction going on Lexington Avenue outside, for a cordial business meeting for coffee or a glass of wine, with very welcomng and professional waiters.“

“Great for dinner while watching a game“

“Excellent food, great service and staff and very nice atmosphere.“

“I will never get tired of this place. My #1 recommended NYC restaurant to anyone who asks. I am a GM at a restaurant in Astoria, Queens and I’ve been in the restaurant industry for over 13 years. This place is hands down my favorite. Their dining area is not that large so you must make a reservation. Their waitstaff is so friendly, funny and knowledgeable about their menu. I didn’t get our servers name but shoutout to him for recommending we add bacon to our burgers it was definitely a must, and elevated our burgers.
If you come here you 10000% MUST get the chopped cheese rice cakes. I dream about these things. Also garlic parm tots are insane..

I’ve been here a handful of times and cannot wait to come back!“

“The food was delicious , service and staff were so attentive and accommodating , conveniently located a few blocks from Time Square .It is definitely a must in your next visit to NY .“

“Rory knows how to pour a drink! Sláinte!“
