“Chef was amazing and but the experience was tainted by them having us wait to be seated essentially outside (not sure why others at same counter were seated before us or why there is no designated space - and we were right on time not super early?) and by them pushing us at tad excessively at end and more importantly asking another patron to relinquish the pen they used to sign the bill. Seriously? A 500$ baseline price for food alone and you can’t let the guy just take the pen?“
“Passing by we noticed the lovely holiday decorations (which were even nicer inside). Made a reservation for dinner and arrived early for a drink at the bar. The whole experience was great - friendly service, great cocktails (amazing selection of Bourbon), good food and all in a cozy atmosphere. Would definitely return if in NY again and would certainly recommend! Thanks for a wonderful dinner on our last night in the city!“
“This place is phenomenal. The service is so friendly and knowledgeable. My bartender Matt made an AMAZING manhattan with Sagamore Rye that was best Manhattan I’ve ever had. We moved to a table and our server was Justine who was absolutely lovely. So personable and fun. She even suggested entrees and apps that we all LOVED. The manager Chris came over to table at one point and it’s obvious why the service here is so great. I can’t wait to recommend this place to all my friends and family that come to NYC.“
“Celebrated my 50th at Harding's on June 26th. I had an amazing experience! The entire staff was attentive, kind and gracious. The food was amazing!

“I've never had whiskey before, because my mother always said it was an undignified drink for women. At the risk of appearing unladylike, I stumbled into The Hamilton with the intention of trying whiskey for the first time. As I was internally battling with my mother's judgement, a kind bartender named Ross noticed me looking troubled. He could tell immediately what my predicament was. I was surprised how intuitive he was. He assured me that women drink whiskey all the time, and it's completely normal. Ross allowed me to sample a few different kinds of whiskey, and I really loved how it made me feel! I'll admit, I did feel slightly more boisterous after consuming the samples, but Ross assured me that it was okay to express myself! At the end of the sampling, he fixed me an elegant cocktail, and I was again reminded of my feminine demeanor. I loved being able to let loose while sipping a delicate cocktail. Who says women can't drink whiskey??? THIS woman can and WILL! Thank you Ross.“
“We ordered take out- chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, samosas, and garlic naan. Flavors were great but the mild spice level left us wanting more of a kick. Overall, each dish was very tasty with fresh and high quality ingredients. India Palace will definitely be one of our new go to restaurants! Looking forward to trying the mango lassi next time.“
“Came here early morning for an Everton match. We’re both vegan and they did us beans on toast which wasn’t on the menu, cleaned all the grill down and made sure we had something suitable to eat. Great service and a great atmosphere for the match. Thank you ☺️“
“What a great bar! Met a friend after work for a drink. It was the perfect atmosphere, quiet and low key. The bar has a really great selection of whiskeys/whiskys. The bartender was super knowledgeable and really knew her stuff (which was great for a novice like me). For those in the neighborhood, it's such a fantastic place to grab a drink and learn more about whiskey/whisky.“
“I love the Copper Still. Reasons why it is my favorite bar in New York:1. Never empty but never packed.2. Great service & nice employees3. Always easy to reserve for large parties4. Extremely spacious5. VERY good food6. Reasonable prices7. Good/clean bathroom system8. Good location9. Patio is great in the summer10. Not too dark, not too bright11. Pet friendly, have seen some good dogs show upIf you forced me to come up with a criticism I’d say there was a DJ last time I was there that I didn’t care for really. Hummus needs salt. Other than that, amazing. I love this place.“

“This quiet restaurant with a pool table in the back has a few seats at the bar. I sat down and ordered their hamburger with a side of edamame. The burger was had a good spicy sauce that masked the otherwise mild taste of the beef. The edamame was seasoned with a good amount of salt. It's not the best dinner I've eaten, but it has a cool atmosphere.“
“Sally's is such a hidden gem in Kips Bay/Murray Hill area. The staff, especially Arun, is really friendly, and the prices cannot be beat anywhere in the city. Highly recommend as a weeknight happy hour spot, or for a fun night out on the weekend!“
“One of the best, if not the best, whiskey & bourbon bars in the world, world-class selection and service, and an iconic and generous owner. This whiskey bar is for everyone from the most experienced whiskey aficionado to the first time taster. If you are looking for an average bar experience, with average drinks, cocktails, wine, beer, and such, OTR should still be your first stop for the evening, so that you may experience a classy Manhattan bar, taste and learn about a new single malt, and chill to Sinatra and good vibes. Any negative reviewers must have been confused by the whiskey-only menu and the inimitably friendly bartender's passion for whiskey, helping all who are interested discover whiskey and new expressions, and enthusiasm when sharing their deep knowledge and expertise. Slàinte Mhath!“
“My fiancé and I had a casual engagement party here last night. We met at Whiskey Town on Halloween in 2016 so we thought it was only fitting to celebrate there! We didn't bring any decorations as we wanted to keep it very low-key, but as soon as John, the bartender, found out what we were there celebrating, he asked us how we spell our names. About 45 minutes later he came over with a "Congratulations" sign and taped it to the wall by where we had gathered with our friends. Then, another 45 or so minutes later, a man walked into the bar with a diamond ring-shaped balloon and John handed it to me! It meant so much to us that he took the time to help make the night a little more special for us!“
“It's not fancy or anything, has sports on the TV's, decently priced drinks, tip floor has couches/big seating, no frills. Good happy hour margaritas and beers. Free popcorn!The waitresses are super friendly and sweet, they were great!Noticed it's a very young/college crowd.Absolutely decent if you're with a group looking to get drunk and chat.“
“A beautiful location! Lovely space to grab a drink with friends or take a date. When I went it was fairly empty inside so we got plenty of attention from the staff. Drinks are fairly pricey- lowest being around $20 and honestly I didn't think they lived up to the price tag :/ Drinks were good for sure but not the life changing experience I was hoping for. Still a solid spot though!“
“Definitely a great place to have brunch on a Sunday! Got there at 11 right at opening and it wasn’t busy. The crowd comes in around 1. The food was great but more on the pricier side. The service was nice and friendly! The vibe of the place is nice. Very close to the 1 train and the Blue line too. I highly recommend this place for sure“

“We had no reservations and three other places had closed for private events, so we were happy to find Blue Bar open and we were lucky to find a table without waiting -- it was filling up fast on an afternoon in early December ? the drinks were good and the atmosphere was great -- vibrant yet not loud! Too bad it wasn't quite blue ? I guess it only would turn blue later at night. (Only had drinks, so, I'm not rating "food" -- is that correct ?)“
“On the way through from financial district to chinatown, we stopped by for a few drinks and a small snack. Our server Alex was a great person being. So kind and direct, we from Austria are not used to it!We loved our stay and it is a have to visit when we return to this beautiful city.“
