I had a lovely evening with my friends to celebrate our birthdays. All of the staff members were very pleasant and attentive to the guest. I especially like to thank Finn(mgr) and Cheeko at the front door (I hope you get a door buzzer) LOL. with our seating accommodations. Finn made sure that my friends and I were comfortable throughout the night and was very attentive to our needs. I will definitely be back for Broadway Monday's. The MC for the evening hands down hilarious. Thank you everyone for making our evening so wonderful.

Waitstaff was friendly & helpful answering lots of questions. Better coordination is needed amongst the staff. The hostess kept asking for the table back yet the delay was trying to get the check!

Our waitress Teddy was great! She was friendly and gave recommendations on what she thought we'd enjoy or not enjoy. The only negative was the "chips" as it came with a side of olives which was more of 3/4 the plate. More bar type food would be great!

Super fun cocktail spot with a live jazz band. Had the meatballs and Dogs of Wall Street, both really solid bar food and more substantial than expected. Cocktails, the To Randy and Knickerbocker, were balanced and not too sweet. It gets busy fast, so make a reservation. Great energy and a nice way to cap the night.

Warm staff that make the experience even better, drinks on point and the ambiance is unbelievable. This should be a must when in NY!

We didn't really get to eat because it was a big group and we decided to go somewhere else but the drinks were good the atmosphere was ok a bit quiet but the place very spacious.it was a bit expensive. Would go again to try the food.

Went here on a Friday night with friends (reservation for 4, highly recommend booking ahead). We got there around 9pm and they had live music playing almost the whole night — such a fun vibe. The interior design and overall atmosphere really give you that speakeasy feel, stylish and unique.

We ordered the appetizer “tower” to share (mini burgers and snacks, solid but nothing mind-blowing) and a couple of oyster plates (just okay). Drinks were great, though most leaned on the stronger/earthy side — not many sweet cocktail options if that’s your thing. Still, the menu is creative and well-curated.

Price-wise, it adds up quickly — with the apps, oysters, and a couple drinks each, the bill was over $300 for four people. Definitely on the expensive side, but it felt worth it for the experience.

Service was attentive without being pushy. They checked in often at first, but later gave us space to relax and enjoy, which I really appreciated — no rushing to finish or leave.

Overall, a great place for a chill but classy evening with friends. Would absolutely recommend if you’re looking for a fun speakeasy experience in Manhattan.

A hidden speakeasy-ish vibe! You go down the stairs and find this gem of a cocktail bar. Loved the vibe, with the dark red theme! Will be back for more of the delicious cocktails! Great service and a live band!

Great atmosphere/vibe. Visited on a Friday night, the live band was amazing. Service was lacking. We were checked on twice over a span of two hours.

Drinks seem artsy and innovative but are poorly executed. Prior to ordering, I asked the waitress feedback on a specific cocktail — the superfly. She described as light, refreshing, citrusy, bubbly and easy to drink. It couldn’t have been worse / the exact opposite. The drink tasted sour like pickle juice. Most people didn’t like their signature drinks. Including those at the table next to us.

Again, vibe is great. If I were to return I would not order anything from their cocktail menu — I’d keep the order simple and familiar.

A speakeasy style bar with live music. I specially love that they serve drinks in teapots and cups, just like how they did it in the Prohibition Era. The cocktails are on the sweeter side, but if you like that then this place would be perfect for you.

Wow, amazing cocktail bar vibes. Loved the decor. Opulent Victorian. Great seats. Cocktails were innovative. Service was extremely pushy and unpleasant. I would still go out of my way to visit Madame George.

Walk downstairs and into an amazing underground bar. Lots of great comfortable seats. We had a nice booth. Super interesting cocktail menu - very innovative. Generally super amazing but we rolled our dice on a mushroom infused gin and it was a bit much (we were warned!) Could spend hours there in those seats and that cocktail list.

They had $1.50 oysters from 5pm to 8pm. So good. The 4 of us had a dozen each. Brought us some extra horse radish.

My only complaint was the service. They were great explaining the drinks (and warning us about mushroom infused gin!) but damn, they kept pushing us to order more drinks. We’d be having a great conversation and they’d cut in. A few times, fine. But it felt like it happened 10+ times. It happens and I’d still return but gosh. There was a band coming at 9:30 but we didn’t wait….

Clean but just okay bathrooms.
