A friend of mine and I decided to try this place a few years back. The bar food quality, drinks & service were excellent.

The bartender with the the curly hair and the glasses names Nicolas was amazing from beginning to end. He’s so amazing at his job and I had a great conversation with him, will definitely be back when he’s there

Came for a lovely birthday experience and left with an even bigger smile on my face than imagined! The food was to die for and the service was impeccable! Cierra the server was lovely and more than willing to cater to our every want and need. Will try to come back ASAP 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Loved this restaurant so much the first night we went back the next! From the first greeting by the matre d to the service given us by our server, Santiago, we felt welcome and special the entire evening. The food was spectacular! The salmon was cooked perfectly and the pasta seasoned deliciously. The Independenr was one of our best finds!

Cierra was fantastic. She has phenomenal recommendations and helped us accommodate a food allergy very easily. The food was incredible.

We love this place for a pre show dinner and drink and Cierra was charming and attentive. Space is a bit loud and servings were smaller than usual this time. Had the wedge, which was not a wedge. 😆
We’ll come back for drinks and try to make it earlier to avoid the crowd.

This is my first time in New York, I’m celebrating my anniversary with my wife and came to The Independent on a whim. We were overwhelmed by how awesome the bartender Alex was. He made our night special. The live music was great too. 10/10

This our First time here and probably gonna The last time also, We stop by because the place look so nice But since we sit at the bar The bartender didn’t even welcome us at all. I dont know what’s the reason that he had to act like he didn’t want to serve us. Like you can tell when ppl want to do their job or not
,So this is very bad experience after all.

Nicholas at the bar tonight in New York was absolutely fantastic! He crafted some truly excellent drinks and provided top-notch service throughout the evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience thanks to his skill and attentiveness.
