I absolutely love it here. My favorite place to hang out after hours. They will not disappoint you!
Having a great time until...Experience, service and ambience was great until we were asked to turn our chair. Shared with the hostess that all people that were not my hue had turned their chairs and were not asked to return them but only I was - was disappointing. Respected the ask quickly asked for the bill and left quietly. Great place door man was highly respectful of my wife and I and complimented us on our demeanor and attire. - the inconsistency in the application of I guess rules was disappointing. Considered a team event early in the evening but cannot return knowing that the comfort in assertion applied to my table but not others. All in all, a beautiful roof top, good waiter service and the drinks are done well. It was made clear that I don't belong as it relates to other guests.

It’s in a really old hotel and doesn’t feel too clean. The service is alright but the food is subpar. Wasn’t bad just wouldn’t go back again.

Great location and view. The smokey pear Martini was delicious.Service is very attentive and friendly. Wide selection of bar food/snacks but we only had a bowl of french fries to share.Nice spot for a group of friends to hang out. The night view is amazing from this rooftop bar.

Food was IMMACULATE!!, It felt like the experience in ratatouille, the food painted a vibrant atmosphere in my mind that was colorful! The setting and atmosphere felt like home. Service is very quick and rapid and didn’t have to repeat myself at any time. Overall 10/10 experience would recommend you try it!

Amazing view and smooth ambience inside. For my XOXO fans, a must visit when in New York and one of the pillar destinations in The Upper West Side. Definitely recommend coming with a group or bringing a date here.
The Empire rooftop is a great vibe!!! The service is quick and pleasant plus the flat iron pizza is crispy and delicious. The music is awesome and the decor plus the views are chic. Great place to go to after Lincoln Center ballet performance.

A lot of the windows had dirty glass so you couldn't really see out. The service was a bit slow. Didn't have enough milk options for coffee drinks... and I'm lactose intolerant and allergic to nuts...
