Located is the lobby of the Intercontinental Times Square and the Hotel is tucked away nicely around from main parts of Times Square. Booked on a busy night but the service and pace of the staff was impeccable. Great meal, great drinks, and will definitely return. Great location and across the street from a great jazz lounge as well.

Located inside the lobby of the Intercontinental hotel. Service is absolutely shockingly bad. I requested a table so I could have a meal and a drink, I was asked if I was ok to wait a minute or two whilst they cleaned a table which is no problem at all. I was then directed to the bar on the end, I said again I would like a table to which I was told it’s very hard to accommodate someone on their own (I was quite taken back by this) then told there are no available tables. We eventually found a table and I ordered a Caesar salad with chicken and a beer. I wanted a quick and simple meal, emphasis on the quick part. 50 minutes that took to arrive. Shredded lettuce and lukewarm chicken took 50 minutes. Prices are higher than a typical hotel. I would not recommend this place unless you want some slow, rude and dismissive service.

Great spot for a pre (and post) show drink at Birdland across the street. We were promptly seated at our reserved table and Chris, our server greeted us warmly and provided excellent service. We had such a nice experience we went back after the show to keep the night going.

Staying at The Intercontinental & with DH ‘s status we received drink vouchers & I loved the Signature Stinger cocktail & DH thought his Moscow Mule was good & strong. We enjoyed dinner here two nights (receiving a daily $25 credit on food to help offset the hotel's required daily $35 amenity fee). We really enjoyed the French onion soup & the salads with added protein. Flourless chocolate cake with cherries was exceptional! Excellent service from Chris who was very personable!

We had a reservation, but when we arrived there was no hostess, some random guy said sit anywhere. We walked through and decided to leave. It honestly reminded me of an airport Chili's. You'd think with the expensive menu that some effort could be made to provide a half decent experience. Todd English should be embarrassed.

Located downstairs at the Intercontinental Hotel. Had a very good dinner / Steak au Poivre with truffle fries and a glass of Sicilian wine. Very nice meal, attentive service and a nice ambiance. Cool hang out place. Recommended

Lovely bar / restaurant. Cocktails were very good. Onion soup was delicious. Burgers were good...would say excellent if they had been cooked as requested (medium was more like rare). Waitress was from but not great with checking back to assure everything was as ordered. I will give it another try because I think it could be excellent.

If possible, ask to have Eduardo as your server. He makes the experience at Stinger even better. He makes us feel welcome every time, gives great suggestions for tourists - it's like we're seeing an old friend when we come to the city.

It's rare for me to leave a review, but my experience at Stinger was so remarkable, that I had to write about it. The food was delicious - mushroom dumplings and short rib sliders to name a few. The craft cocktails are really worth the trip there. A large part of the experience was the presentation of the cocktails. So, I must mention our waiter, Eduardo, who really created the remarkable experience for us - he's so welcoming and charming (he added to the fun chatter of our group - such a good host). And when he brought out the cocktails, he gave us a performance as he served me the Smokin Sipper cocktail --- you just have to go and experience the drink and Eduardo's performance and hospitality for yourself!

Great experience, food delicious, drinks even better. Our waiter Nick was attentive, professional and quick witted. No where beats NYC or it's people! I highly recommend. Pricey but worth it.
