    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great spot for a girls' night out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Drinks were interesting and the vibe was very classy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was super friendly as well. Fav was Painted Paradise.

    I loved it. Got in quick, had a great cocktail and the ambiance was divine. I'll definitely come back for some other drinks.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute place for intimate date night![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There is a waitlist if you didn't make a reservation, but it goes by fast. The drinks are all very unique.

    I use to like the hidden bar that was at St. Marks. Friend of mine brought me back to go through memory lane. Seems like they are doing well as each time we do pass by them, seem to be long waiting lines. We lucked out that night and had little wait time. The drinks are always interesting to try and if you're into exploring new flavors. This would be the spot. Granted some were questionable to taste but overall, still enjoy the environment and drinks that were given. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I would say at times it gets a bit rowdy when you want to talk among friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Their rules are very pretentious. It's not the workers fault but the owners from what I'm told. I came in with a date and before walking out saw a friend I knew in the back. I was asking if they were staying long or leaving and they told me they were closing their check as well, but then I was told I was not allowed to talk to them. I told the waiter I was just asking where they were going since I knew them and that I just closed my check and they were as we were speaking so we were all about to leave (like literally they guy had their check receipt in his hands). But then I was told I can't even talk to them or be near them because it would mean we are part of the same party then JUST because we happens to know them. Absolutely ridiculous. I love the drinks here and they weren't ever this bad but I think the owner just got pretentious post covid and relocating and the more popular this speakeasy got and went full blown outta hand ridiculous trying to be exclusive and pretend they're extra special. As much as I love their drinks humiliating me around people I came to say hello to after making eye contact and recognizing them is insane. Especially when we're all literally about to go out the door. So stupid [[HIGHLIGHT]]This felt like segregation more than a sophisticated speakeasy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Read all the other reviews, you'll see a common theme comes up. If you sit solo at the bar, be careful not to be friendly or talk to anyone around you, they might kick you out! Maybe don't even talk to the host and be polite, they might think you know them too and they'll kick you out.. Good drinks aren't enough to change my mind now. Imagine being served a great tasting steak and then slapped and spit in the face after, would YOU COME BACK?

    Take you there

    I got there at 6 pm on a Thursday and there was no line. This is my first time at the west village location. I kind of miss the old days. I miss the location in East Village where you had to go up the secret staircase. The place was a hole in the wall, but it was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The new location is a lot more spacious and a more of a "real restaurant."[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There is actually a waiting room, instead of lining up on a narrow staircase, trying to avoid other people putting there names down for a coveted spot. The drinks are still amazing. One of the few places where cocktails are a craft and the money is worth it. I tried the Painted Paradise and the pandan flavor was legit. It was the first time that I tried something that tasted like it had pandan in it. Will definitely return.

    Very over priced drinks and everyone is required to have a drink. Maybe that's a NYC thing now it wasn't last time I was here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place was nice and clean but service could be friendlier again maybe an nyc thing but we felt like they were rushing us rather than being friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drinks were decent but at the price point of $23 per drink I expected better. Nothing special or memorable in both taste and presentation. Go elsewhere. So forgettable I don't even recall the name of the drinks for the photos.

    One of my favorite bars in NYC. I make an effort to come here whenever I'm back in town. Staff can rush you a bit. Normally there is a long wait outside so they try to move you quickly. Try all their different exotic and Asian experimental flavors!

    Painted Paradise, Papaya and friends

    A legendary Japanese cocktail bar in New York City -- known as the starting point for many renowned bartenders. [[HIGHLIGHT]]With its speakeasy-style entrance, moody lighting, and striking mural, the space reflects a refined and thoughtful approach to interior design.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The cocktails here are deeply rooted in Asian flavors, creatively crafted with impressive balance and nuance. Two standouts you absolutely must try are Painted Paradise and Papaya and Friends. Painted Paradise is a milk-washed cocktail featuring pandan, honeydew melon, and jasmine. It's light, floral, and dangerously drinkable -- I'd happily have ten if it weren't for the price tag. Papaya and Friends leans fruit-forward as well, but with a herbal twist -- notes of cilantro and pepper give it a distinctly Southeast Asian flair. Delicate touches of kaffir lime and lemongrass add subtle complexity without overwhelming the palate. This is the kind of bar I'd make a point to revisit every time I'm in the city -- a true gem for cocktail lovers.

    Delicious drinks but quite expensive! On a weekend evening, my group of four waited almost two hours in line before being seated at a table. When we got close to the front of the line, we were able to wait inside in a dark room. The place itself is dimly lit; we had slight trouble reading the extensive menu but admired the many drinks that it offered. I ordered two drinks for the night. One was the Painted Paradise: its description including jasmine, lemon, and pandan milk intrigued me. The drink came out with a flower on top, and I loved the strength of the pandan taste. The drink looked slightly denser than water, which added to the texture of the drink. My friends ordered a strong drink where they poured "smoke" or "fog," and it was a fun aesthetic effect!

    Very well made cocktails. As a visitor, I had no idea this was on the 2025 North American's 50 Best Bars list. Now that I know, I must say it is a very well deserved title. Their cocktails are so smooth and delicious. I only had appetite for one drink but I would've loved to order more. Very very nice ambiance, I had a great experience here. Service was quick as well. Would totally come back again!

    Joash O.

    Just really impressive cocktails. Normally I'm not into fancy cocktails but this bar really takes bartending to a new level. The waiters and bartenders are all equally well informed and will help you figure out a drink that matches your taste that evening! Don't be afraid to ask questions, everyone is very friendly.

    If you love great cocktails, this hidden speakeasy is an absolute must-visit! From entering with a…read moresecret passcode to the very last sip, the entire experience is incredible. It has easily earned a spot as one of my favorite bars of all time. The underground space flawlessly captures a raw, seedy, 1980s rock 'n' roll vibe, with eclectic decor that extends beautifully to the themed menus and custom glassware. Sitting at the bar was a highlight--the bartenders were fantastic, clearly proud of their craft, and they even humorously indulged my game of trying to guess the ingredients of each drink they mixed. The cocktail lineup is phenomenal. A few absolute highlights: the Purple Rain with its purple ice and peppercorn, the flambéed Dirty Dancing, a brilliant espresso martini riff called Flick The Bean, and Pure Temptation--which has glassware you just have to see for yourself. Don't miss this place if you're in NYC!

    The Woo Woo is loud and touristy--and honestly, that kind of sums it up…read more They market it as a speakeasy, which... technically yes. You need a password (easy to find online), and you go through a hidden door down a staircase. But it feels more like a novelty than anything else. NYC has way more iconic speakeasies, so this isn't somewhere I'd go out of my way for more than once. Nothing wrong with the vibe--it's Times Square, so you already know what you're getting--but it's definitely a one-and-done kind of spot. The drinks are good and super fun, but they're very extra (smoke, presentation, all that), so between that and how packed it gets, it can take a while just to get one cocktail. Didn't try the food. Overall, go for the pics and TikToks--it's perfect for that. I'd recommend checking it out once, but I don't really see it being a repeat spot.

    I had researched speakeasies in Midtown West of Manhattan before we traveled there to celebrate our…read morefifth wedding anniversary. From our initial trip last year, I had marked a place called Bar 369 Miroku located in Hell's Kitchen. Being that we didn't make our way to the spot on our trip last year, and were staying in Hell's Kitchen this time around, I wanted us to check out. The only challenge was actually finding it. If you're seeking out this gorgeous speakeasy. You aren't going to find it through some darkened alleyway or non-marked door of a building outside. No. You need to check the website and read between the lines of it being located within a sushi bar on West 46th Street. I could tell you the name, but what fun would that be? Figure that part out. But once you figure out how to access, the staff at said-sushi bar will direct you to the back of the restaurant to wheee you will see a sign for the bar and a stairwell to take you up to the second floor. Once you reach and look around, it looks at first you have reached a dead end between the emergency exit you see and a door that looks locked. There is a black curtain in the darkened hallway you need to notice and peer through. And alas, you will discover the bar that is Bar 369 Miroku. Once you have been checked for ID, and your party number, you are escorted into the small, darkly-lit enclave with plush decor, a bit of a Rolling Stones theme with its large poster hung in the back and artwork perched next to the bar shelving. It's an intimate and relaxed energy that makes it perfect to enjoy one of the Japanese-inspired cocktails on an evening after dinner. The hideaway offers a creative mix of craft cocktail options such as the Ichitaki Spritz (a variation of the Aperol spritz with sake in it), which was quite delightful that I enjoyed immensely within the dark lounge surroundings. If we were here more often, I would have taken advantage of their Japanese whisky selection that looked on point. There is a delectable charm to their curation and craftsmanship of their cocktails, combined with the luscious ambience that makes for a great hangout spot to get away and relax for the night. Bar 369 Miroku hits the mark regarding the speakeasy experience you would think to have when describing one, outside of not needing a password. The bar combines dark, stylish elegance with modern Japanese mixology magic to create an environment nestled deep away from the busy Manhattan streets outside.

    Awesome upstairs speakeasy behind an Asian restaurant…read more Went after dinner for a few cocktails. Was a last minute thing so did not have an RSVP, but luckily there was an open table.

Tucked into a very cool art deco hotel, the Rum House is a tiny little oasis amidst the insanity of Times Square. There was a guy at the door asking about reservations. We did not have one, but we were admitted regardless, and a friendly server / hostess informed us of the 2 drink minimum and seated us right near where the musicians were set up. The drink menu is a ode to rum. All kinds of rum; spiced, dark, overproof, high end. Most of the cocktails are tiki cocktails, but do not be turned off if you don't like sweet drinks! It's a myth that tiki cocktails are all sickly sweet. A properly crafted tiki drink will be a great balance between alcohol, sugar, mint and acid. These drinks were properly crafted! I honestly cannot remember what Larry and I ordered but all four of our drinks were delightful! You really can't go wrong with any of their rum cocktails. We were with Larry's brother, who is not much of a drinker. He ordered a whisky sour made with Crown Royal. The whisky sour was a surprising standout! The sour mix is house made (of course), which elevates this drink from an overly sweet attempt to cover up cheap whisky to a complex beverage that can be savored. The jazz was great - they had 4 musicians (kind of a lot in the small room) who played 2 songs before breaking and returning for another 2 songs, etc, etc. The short sets were welcome as they allowed for conversation between the entertainment. The Rum House is a great stop; don't miss it if you are in the area!

Regardless, I love the dark decor. Its not loud or anything, just a more relaxing environment for drinks where you can actually speak to each other. They have a huge selection of drinks, not too much to eat but there's plenty of restaurants in the area to handle that for you. The popcorn did smell good though. It was also the end of Happy Hour when we arrived. My husband got the 'Hot Buttered Rum' and I got the 'Escape' which was Bacardi 8yr Rum, Coconut Crème, Pineapple Juice, Sweet Vermouth. The drinks were STRONG. They are also pricy but the Hot Buttered Rum was part of Happy Hour so that helped. The service was super friendly, knowledgeable and quick. I would come back or recommend if you are in the area. It was a nice little place and glad I finally tried it.
