Midnight Cowboy Reviews
Loved the drink menu, every cocktail was delicious and so well made. The menu itself is fun and creative.
We made a reservation, paid a booking fee, showed up and no one let us in. Followed instructions on the email, so not sure what happened. Realized they were closed (because we went to their Facebook and Instagram pages) and we weren’t told anything and seems like it was a last minute call on their part, even though we made reservations way in advance. We even got a text message the day of our reservation asking us to confirm.. LOL. Good luck contacting them because they don’t...read full review

Midnight Cowboy is a unique and intimate speakeasy-style restaurant located in the heart of the city. The establishment features a cool and cozy ambiance, with a lovingly restored brothel-inspired interior that keeps many of its original elements. Though it is technically reservation-only, walk-ins might be accommodated near their opening time at 5 pm. The decor is super cool, with a theme that changes periodically, creating an interesting atmosphere that guests find fun and swanky.
The drinks menu at Midnight Cowboy offers a range of creative cocktails, including the Midnight Cowboy, a mezcal-based drink similar to a margarita, and the Expletive, a soft yet interesting concoction. Guests can explore an interesting cocktail menu organized into chapters, with options like Highballs, Stirred and Down, and Mahattanas. Some cocktails, such as Chaps 'N' Spurs and The Void, feature exotic ingredients that create sophisticated flavors. The bartender or staff are very knowledgeable about the drinks, often creating 4-5 of the listed cocktails, which adds to the experience.
Service at Midnight Cowboy has received positive feedback for being friendly and attentive.
