Had the best time, can’t wait to come again.
I like this spot I've been three times. Twice for happy hour and once for a night time party. The happy hour is a good time. The bites are decent and the drinks are good. I do think the pitchers to share are over priced but the mini martini's are a good value 3 for $24. The view and decor is very pretty and the service has always been efficient and pleasant.
Overall a good experience. Sat at the bar and enjoyed the sunset. Drinks were well balanced.

The Highlight Room is a rooftop restaurant that offers stunning views of the city skyline, including iconic landmarks like the World Trade Center and Empire State Building. The experience is enhanced by professional staff, solid security, and exceptional service, making it a great place to enjoy a quality New York rooftop experience. The bar is of a comfortable size, creating a cozy atmosphere where guests can relax and enjoy delicious cocktails. The drinks are good, with happy hour specials such as the $5 Rose, making it an appealing spot to start the night. The view, especially of lower Manhattan, is phenomenal and attracts visitors wanting a good drink with a great view.
The decor and seating are both comfortable and fun, providing a perfect setting for both casual nights out and special occasions. However, recent reviews suggest that the overall experience can be inconsistent. While the ambiance, music, and food are often praised, the service has been criticized as inattentive and neglectful. Some guests have also reported issues with the venue's closing time, being asked to leave before the advertised closing hour.
Despite these concerns, The Highlight Room remains a popular destination for those seeking a chic and vibrant rooftop experience in the heart of the city.
