    Overpriced and underwhelming. Besides being a lawsuit ready to happen with all the Taylor swift references, everything was just a bit too gimmicky. This places was made for tourists that think New Yorkers spend $100 minimum on a night out. Ordered one round of drinks, we were the first people in there and it still took 30 mins -_-. Birthday girl took a picture in the martini glass and we hightailed it out of there.

    The food didn't disappoint--flavorful, tasty, absolutely delicious. I'd definitely go back just to have it again. The atmosphere and vibe were immaculate, with animal prints everywhere giving the place such a fun, unique energy. I personally prefer going on a weekday if you want to chill and really soak in the vibe, but if you're looking for a livelier, party-like atmosphere, weekend nights are perfect. The waitress was extraordinary- friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. And can we talk about that chip door?! Having to find the right chip to get through and then immediately walking into an aesthetically stunning space completely took me away. Honestly, it was a great experience all around. Highly recommend

    Trendy and great for Swifties . The drinks are curated around artists and songs. V E R Y P R I C E Y and weak for the price . Food was just ok . Service was good.

    Mhmm. It's ok. Came for a party for the owner that I saw on pulsd. I didn't get the shots advertised. the champagne was supposed to be from 9 to 11:50, but I didn't get mine until 9:30 ish close to 10 when the owner showed up and it was over at 10. Cute spot, good dj. Overpriced. They also serve food. I would try it for the experience. The unicorn drink was cute. I like the idea. The inside is nice. The general manager W.E, his name, was chased me down to pay a bill that I already paid: so tacky. It's one of those places as a brown person I wouldn't go to. One of the things I have as a brown person is coins, hunty. I would say try it for IG worthy pics and the experience. Thr owners mom in the champagne glass was life!

    Taylor swift coaster was the best part.

    Soooo, obviously we went to this bar because we were told it was a Taylor Swift themed speakeasy. And it is...sort of. It's a very fun "speakeasy" experience. The space is gorgeous with beautiful bathrooms, a giant champagne glass and a super cute lift area for larger parties. I can imagine renting the whole place out for a party or reception. There are a few Taylor things sprinkled around, but I would definitely say that this is a space for the non-swiftie as well. They weren't playing Taylor swift, and we literally questioned why. Our server said that they play Taylor all day before 5pm and then late night. He then said he would add some Taylor songs to the que for us. As soon as they did the whole bar lit up and the girlies were dancing and having a great time. I mean, I get that you can't solely rely on the Swifterhood to patronize your bar, but if you're marketing it to swifties so we'll spend our money there, you HAVE to at least play some Taylor songs even if it's just the 1989 bops. I'd say all in all, if you're a fan of Champagne and you live a fun speakeasy experience this is the bar for you.

    We had such a great time here! It was so fun getting in with the door of chip bags. The bartender Lana was so nice. We went on a weeknight and had the place to ourselves for a whole which was fun to take pictures and explore. There are so many details in the decor everywhere. It's very whimsical! The drinks were good. Pricey as most are at these places, especially NYC. They play all Taylor Swift music! It was a memorable experience!

    This place is so cute and quirky. I saw it on social media and decided to stop by while I was in New York. To get in I had to figure out where the entrance to the secret door was located by pressing snack chips that were hanging on the door and the walls around it. That was fun and cute. This is a Taylor Swift inspired speakeasy that is decorated with all sorts of fun and colorful paraphernalia. Bathroom was clean and well maintained. Me and my friends went for drinks only before going to dinner. The drinks are tasty and depending on what you order it comes served in a cute themed cup. We went in the middle of the day so we were seated immediately. There was one bartender and she was very nice and accommodating. The place is small but would still be fun for groups of 3-5.

    It's a kitschy place where you have to "tap" empty bags of potato chips lining the wall for then a secret door to open into the bar. There's a large giraffe and a human-sized martini class that patrons can climb into for a photo op, which is fun. We sat ourselves on the second floor, and though the bar was relatively dead, it took forever to get service. Overall, it's a fun spot, but probably not a place I feel moved to go to again.

    Not sure what to think of this champagne speakeasy place. I have seen it all over tik tok and social media. I was excited to go and glad i was able to go for my birthday weekend. When you walk in there is a vending machine that you can get chandon mini bottles from I believe. You have to pay for it obviously. The walls in this area are covered in bags of chips and you have to hit some of the bags until you find the right one that opens the door into the actual bar part. The guy in the front was very nice and talkative he is the one that checks everyone in. When you get in there the bar is to the left and tables to the right. Then you may be seated in the upstairs area where we were. There is a big statue of a champagne bottle in the middle of it and the ceilings are made with mirrors and it's very cool looking. The tables are small at least at the one we sat at. There is a button in muddle of table that if you need waiters help you press it and they come. It says ring for champagne. It's a pretty cute idea. This is a Taylor swift bar there are alot of components to this place that have her face on things and she is in the mural that is on the back wall. I believe there are also drinks named after a song or two or something like that. In the downstairs area there is a big ball pit in the shape of a champagne glass where people can actually go into. We opted out of this but looked fun. On the bottom floor is where the bathroom is. It is pretty chilly in this bathroom. The sink is an ice bucket and the soap dispenser is in the shape of a champagne bottle. Very cute ideas. This place is great for instagram/ social media pictures. There is lots you can photograph. The menu here you have to scan the qr code on a mini tube of pringles. Another cute idea. Once it opens the menu is soo hard to read. Atleast, my friend and I were having issues with it. For some of the drinks they come in a cute animal or an object. My first drink came in a panda my friends came in a girraffe and hers had banana chips in it. I did not like mine so I sent it back and got a mini bottle of chandon instead. The waiter was nice but there was some Miscommunication through out the time we were there. Not sure if I need to come and check this place out again.

    Cute place. People mostly go for the Instagram vibes. I got the lo mein with shrimp. It was OK. Comes in one of those Chinese containers were just cute. Was it worth the hype? Not sure about that. There was only one bartender that served as the server as well. For a weekend brunch I thought it was a bit too much for one person to handle it all. But he was great.

    Hidden door to enter the bar

    Speak easy type of vibes. You have to find your way into the establishment behind a door of all sorts of chips. (Really fun feature). The concierge/host was extremely friendly, while checking my id she noticed my birthday was the day before. She sent a text inside and within a few minutes of me entering the dj was shouting me out by name wishing me a happy birthday. That was a nice touch. The drink menu is extensive as you can imagine a ton of champagne options. They serve food but I just came from dinner so I didnt try it out this time. They do offer free bar snacks some tasty chips. The lay out is nice an upstairs and main floor. A ton of photo opportunities. Although its a Taylor swift themed bar I was happy that they played a variety of music. Top 40, hip hop, reggae , soca , afro beats. Very diverse. Great place to celebrate something.

    inside the venue so many details look at the rug !

    Let's start out by saying we found parking right in front of the restaurant! You can't miss this glittering gold and green, it's definitely a social media restaurant (I'm in love with the PHOTO) Walking in we were greeted by the door man and upon entrance there is a champagne vending machine and chip bags galore. Next we were greeted by the hostess/waitress and walked into the 80's with a jungle glamour sort of thing going on but it's all about the photos right (Not in my book). The seating on the 1st floor is bad because you are way too close to the other parties attending the restaurant, your conversations here are not private although we lucked up and sat next to some cool people. If unable to get the waiters attention press the champagne button in the middle of your table an wallah. So the reason for the chip bag decor is explained by the food because everything comes with chips except the pot stickers. Speaking of pot stickers salty as ever 1 out of 10 and as for the artichoke and spinach dip which was paired with unsalted chips and carrots was bland and there wasn't a salt shaker in sight we ended up attending another restaurant. They say don't knock it until you try it well I tried it and I'm knocking it. If you go for anything just go for the photos.

We had the sliders, mozz sticks & fried pickles and were happy with all of them and the prices. Drinks were also good. This place is very small, with maybe 3 tables, a small couch seating area, and seats around the bar. To snag a happy hour table, getting there before 5 is preferable. It can get loud in there, but it's a great spot!

It ended up being a nice spot for a casual catch-up, though with a few mixed impressions. The space itself is cute and very much feels like a neighborhood bar. One of the things we liked most was that they have games available--we ended up playing Scrabble while waiting for our friend to arrive, which made the time go by quickly and added to the relaxed vibe. Happy hour prices are solid, and the fried pickles we shared were decent. I also had a watermelon cocktail that was refreshing and perfectly fine, if not particularly memorable. Service was a bit inconsistent. The bartender wasn't very warm or welcoming to us initially, though that changed once our friend--who is a regular--arrived. Overall, it's a comfortable spot to meet friends and hang out for a few hours, especially on a weekday like Thursday. That said, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to return, but I can see why it works well as a local neighborhood hang.

The chicken cutlet and chicken dumplings were fine but I probably wouldn't order them again. The wait staff weren't super attentive nor super warm, but they were efficient when we asked for water refills, etc. There was ample standing room at the bar while we waited for our friends, but the table/booth that we sat at was super narrow, I was knocking knees with my friend all night and generally felt squished.

Operating as two separate entities, with separate drink menus and some shared food items, both Sip and Guzzle lived up to the hype!! GUZZLE This is the restaurant component with more casual drinks and creative dishes. For two people, they recommend about 6 dishes. I was so sad that the Tavern Burger already sold but I guess it means I have to come back! -Started off with the tasty volcano roll. Combing spicy tuna, coconut sticky rice, and candied, crunchy seaweed roll, it had a nice textural contrast amongst the spice, umami, and sweet flavor profiles. -The pork yaki featured super tender and well seasoned meat skewer with a candied outer layer in addition to the fun cotton candy! -The mochi french fry was FIRE! Its chewy and crunchy at the same time and be sure to pair it with the addicting gochujang-based sauce that is garlic-y and honey-y with a nice spice kick. -The bikini was perf for cheese lovers like me and especially if you like jamon and truffle to make it even more umami. Just make sure you get a good well-balanced bite! -The electric chicken was juicy, tender, crunchy, crispy, and well seasoned! Its less spicy and salty compared to that of Pecking House but still delicious! Plus you get to cut it with fun scissors! -The cabbage was good with a creamy, tangy white sesame sauce, but can skip next time -The chicken chips and salsa was interesting with their chicharron-inspired chicken chips. The salsa had 3 layers of mango, avocado, and jalapeño with a salted foam. -The Hokkaido milk soft serve was super smooth and milky - exactly how I envisioned what I want my milk ice cream to taste like! -Drinks: The lychee martini was amazing for people who like floral/sweet drinks. The wagyu old fashion was very peanut- and whiskey-forward. SIP This is speakeasy bar downstairs that features a variety of innovative drinks -Strawberry Hotpot: I was skeptical at first but this drink was *delicious*!! I find myself too guilty to drink the soup after hotpot or ramen because its often too greasy. Fear not because this clarified drink packages similar flavors into an easily enjoyable alcoholic drink!! Its umami and spicy with just the right amount of peppercorn oil. The strawberry is just present enough to balance out the savoriness, and not too fruity nor sweet at all! Its also cutely served at tableside with a big teapot. -Satsuma Creamsicle: A multilayer drink that was so fun to drink because each sip at a specific angle allows you get a little bit of the tangy and creamy foam, as well as the sweet and cream soda-like drink. -Plantain Colada: A banana/plantain prominent drink with some coconut vibes and bites. -Negroni in the Shade: A refreshing drink with just the right amount of grape flavors. Drinking out of the bowl while eating the tea leaf salad from a miniature bowl/spoon was also fun! Overall staff were very nice and attentive. They helped me get on the waitlist for Sip and timed everything very nicely so that the transition from dinner to more drinks was seamless. Thoroughly enjoyed my meal and can't wait to get my hands on their Tavern Burger!!

    Five stars if we not counting price. Very good burger, bun didnt get soggy and meat was charred…read morewell which i feel most of these gourmet burgers dont do well. Flavors were great too, most times i feel these burgers just grease bombs with no acidity to cut through besides two pickles However sip n guzzle burger was very well balanced where i did not need to ask for extra pickles, really enjoyed it, maybe the number burger for me in nyc My only complaint is price, 35$ is wild, i know its cuz they use a5 miyazaki wagyu but wagyu burgers is just a gimmick to upsale. Grinding the meat destroys all the hard work of the Japanese cattle farmers. In a burger you can effectively create a wagyu burgers just by adjusting the ratio of fat and meat so using wagyu and regular beef to get to a 60/40 blend is the same. I guess my complaint is mostly just to wagyu burgers lol
