The st Regis more like the st regret. This bar has gone down hill especially after a remodel supposedly brining back charm and luster. It started out with our party of 4 getting shoved into a table for two when plenty of tables for 4 were open. Next my partner was served the completely wrong drink and then the waiter saying it’s because the person who makes it normally was out. The manhattans came with defrosted cherries rathe than cocktail cherries, the stem ware was not crystal but cheap glass, and the napkins were cheap and left white fuzz on any clothes used. This feels like a money grab for tourists. Then to top off our visit they slammed the kitchen door into him as we were leaving without apologies. At 60 bucks a drink a little better service and drinks made well would have been appreciated. If I can sum it up please avoid.

We enjoyed pre-dinner drinks, specifically the "Jazz me Blues" and the "Best Address." Both cocktails were expertly crafted, however, the presentation could have been slightly enhanced. The accompanying snacks were a delightful touch, with the beetroot chips being a particular standout.

This is by far one of my favorite bars I have been to. The bar itself is so elegant and the mural is so ritzy. The food was so fresh and flavorful, and the drinks were absolutely perfect. It will be one of my new go to spots in NYC!

Wait in line for two hours while they seat their friends before you. This place is ridiculous and doesn’t fairly seat people. We gave up when we were at front of line and told another 30 minutes. Never again will I go here! Don’t waste your time! If I could give it no stars I would

A historical must visit bar with glamorous ambiance, expensive cocktails ($30+) and famous King Cole mural. The clientele is upper class tourists, midtown business crowd and beautiful ladies. The service is attentive and prompt, you get nuts and beet chips with your drinks. We got seated after 5 min wait around 6pm on Tuesday night, then it got very busy, a line formed but tables started to clear up around 7pm.

Maria at the door absolutely fabulous. George at the bar - out of this world. If you could get in, definitely worth the trip.

Awful service for the price. Paid 36 USD for an espresso Martini, waiter didn't bring water or snacks, poured the wrong alcohol and didn't ask for preferences. The actual cocktail was dreadful. Low quality Beefeater gin in too much quantity, low quality kaluha and filter coffee.. Not even an espresso or proper gin. Don't waste your money on drinks. The painting and atmosphere is cool but awful for drinks.

Just stopped in to meet a friend. Coffee was $16 but wasn't anything special. Service was fairly good but wasn't as attentive as I would have expected. It is possible they were giving space, but when we were done, we had to go up to pay. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and it was clean.
