Came here for NYE, experience was ok. The best part was the views of the city. The DJ wasn’t the best and completely missed the count down for the new year. Overall would not come back.

The views are amazing!! Provides a unique opportunity to see downtown and midtown with minimally obstructed views, while feeling like you are “nestled” amongst the buildings.

A very different view than from one of the observation decks.

Had drinks. No food. Service was fine. Vibe is interesting for NYC - beach theme.

Would definitely go back for the views.

This was super over rated. The staff was so rude and were very pretentious. The food was mediocre. The only thing I liked were the views and the swings. They did a good job with ambiance of Hamptons but I wouldn’t go again

The servers were fantastic! Since I was solo I was given a standing only table, but soon after ordering my drink I was taken over to a nice seat with an amazing view. My drink was excellent and the view was even better.

5 star service, cocktails, bites and overall vibe. Management was extremely accommodating to my group of 20 and the service team always quick and efficient with our orders. Will absolutely be back soon :)

I had a terrific experience here. There was a business gathering which was crowded and noisy. My date and I asked to be moved to a different table which they accommodated immediately and we had a lovely time there. It started to rain so they moved us to, a different table that was more sheltered, and we enjoyed another drink there. Eventually, they moved us to a third table with a better view because the party had dissipated. Basically they took care of us above and beyond any expectation I had. The drinks were excellent, Service. The decor is a fun beach theme.

This is actually a great place in terms of location and views for an afternoon or evening out in NYC.

So why the bad review? Well, they steal your money.

While traveling last week for work, I popped up for a drink and some food. Everything was great. No complaints at all. My total charges were under $40 and I tipped $8 which was over a 20% tip with me being a minimal effort customer for the serving staff.

Comparing my charges from my trip last week and my credit card statement, I've come to find that their staff and/or manager didn't like my tip and decided he or she would add an extra $2 to it. Who knows.. maybe it ended up being a slow night and they wanted to throw someone a bone?

Is $2 going to make or break me? No.
Does a restaurant get to decide how and when I'll spend my money? Absolutely not!

With this said, people make mistakes and would love to get the benefit of the doubt but someone intentionally typed in a 2 digit tip vs the 1 digit.

I'll never return to this place which is disappointing as I frequently stay at the Hilton property in the building and I would highly recommend you do not support this business.

They're thieves and they're hoping you don't check your back statements.

Good views, well managed, attractive space. They have reasonably good food, it’s fine but nothing special.

Nice rooftop in the city center, but nothing breathtaking. We had also some pizza, and was not too bad. Cool atmosphere and nice set up, seems to be on a boat!

Came here on a work trip with a very large group of people and Sandbar was extremely kind and gracious despite us being a large group that kept growing!

Located on the top floor of Hilton New York, Fashion District, you are met with a beachy lounge with 360 views!

They have an extensive menu of drinks and food, a little of something for everyone. A few of us had a few bottles of Wolffer Estates Summer in a Bottle, a rose local to the Hamptons.

This is a great spot for a relaxed outing or even a date night - try out the swings!

Wheelchair accessibility: An elevator takes you to the rooftop. There are ramps.
