    Espresso martini
    Ronak P.

    Fairly okay bar inside the art house hotel. Can be hit or miss depending on the bartender. Stick to basic fare to get most bang for your buck. The more complicated the cocktail, the more off the taste seems. Simpler options (like martinis) are done fairly well. Overall not bad for a hotel bar, but better options fairly nearby. Order a drink at the bar and make your way to more cushioned seating next to the elevators.

    Fabled flower
    Erika P.

    If you need a STRONG after work drink, then look no further. I got a drink called fabled flower which was gin based and it was absolutely delicious and very strong. The service was a bit slow, but they only had 2 bartenders serving both the bar and surrounding areas so I'm not surprised. They lost a star because it was supposed to be happy hour with $14 cocktails but I was charged full price ($19) for mine even tho I ordered before 7. I was too lazy to dispute it but look at all charges before giving your card. I had my drink solo & didn't feel awkward or rushed so it's great for solo drinkers or groups. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area!

    Pear gin drink and a beer

    Such a delicious bar with drinks made perfectly here!! Highly recommend stopping in for a drink. The waiter and bartenders were really nice!! Cozy environment.

    Found this place to meet a friend on the UWS based on all of the good Yelp reviews. The bar is located in the lobby of the Arthouse hotel and is small and intimate. They have several tables and comfy couches to sit, drink and relax. They DO NOT serve food, so much keep that in mind. They also have a grand piano that plays music at 7:30pm on select evenings. For happy hour, they had $10 glasses of wine and specials on beers on tap. Only one red and one white variety were on the happy hour menu, but we didn't mind. This spot is great for a first date as it's quiet and has classy décor. The bartender was friendly; the bar counter itself is small with 2-3 seats so plan on sitting at a table. This is the type of place where you grab your drinks from the bar and then go find a table; there is no waiter service. The bar filled up around 7pm, most likely for the live music that was going to begin. I'd definitely stop back however; their happy hour menu was underwhelming.

    Cinnamon roll, almond croissant, and iced oat-milk latte
    Brigette B.

    This is place is the perfect combo of good atmosphere and yummy pastries. I've only been here during the day for the coffee shop, but it's on the list to come back at night for the bar scene. In the morning it's the best spot of a lazy morning coffee and pastry. They have nice comfy chairs behind the bar, it's not to busy but busy enough to feel like it's a more happening spot. So we got two pastries the cinnamon roll and almond croissant. They were both quite delicious. The cinnamon roll was probably my favorite but I would definitely order both of them again. The frosting on it was soo good and we didn't realize until getting deeper into it that it was chocolate flavored too . The almost croissant would have been better if we had heated it up but it was still quite yummy and filling was perfect. The coffee was tasty too! Will be back here again :)

    4 stars for ambiance - 3 stars for the drinks. $38 with tip for 2 drinks DURING happy hour. They were strong, at least.

    Drinks were great. But their crafted cocktail menu could be better. Not that many options or things that's stand out.

    How do I make a reservation?

    Do yoy have a food menu? I don't see an update from your last post 11 months ago that asked the same question.

    I've only been here for the drinks however j was here about 2 weeks ago and saw people had ordered food. You could try calling them to see if they could let you know if the food menu remains the same or not

    Is there a food menu listed anywhere online? I have seen their wine list but would love to know where I can find what foods they offer. Thanks in advance!

    Hi UWsider M! We are working on food options now, and should have an update very soon. Stay tuned! In the meantime we would love to see you here for one of our great wines!

    Wonderful onion soup, cassoulet and other standards of traditional French bistro fare. Fairly…read morepriced wines and excellent desserts. Service attentive but not intrusive. Tables are close but room not overloud so conversation is possible. It has rapidly become a new favorite place.

    so if my French dining companion enjoyed this French restaurant, that HAS to say something…read more - we enjoyed a lovely weekday dinner in this very cute restaurant furnished with dark wood, funky art, & large windows. and a free bread basket, thank goodness for my hunger levels even though the butter was hard as a rock - I ordered the appetizer size (absolutely enough for an entree) of their signature creole mussels. the sauce was a perfect balance of acidic from the tomato and creamy. the salty chunks of chorizo made the dish much more filling. - the Râble de Lapin Braisé Dijonnaise received recondition for even existing, a rarity in nyc. the sauce was decadent but the rabbit was the slightest bit overcooked. - the steak was ... I mean it's drenched in butter... it's obviously going to be delish. the fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and layered in salt. weird to have to ask for mayo but they did bring it out. - the, albeit pretty, veggie sides I felt were unnecessary and borderline cold so unclear on how much they really added the meal - the Tarte Tatin à la mode was a win around the table. the apple melted in your mouth. the Poire belle Hélène was good but paled in comparison
