The best food option is their omelet! Their lattes are pretty good here too. I love that they had soy milk as an option. Like the name suggests, it really does feel like a living room. There are traditional tables to sit at as well as couches. For my first breakfast here, I tried their avocado toast. Unfortunately, something about the dish was a little sour for me so I did not finish it. The second morning I went for their 57th ave breakfast and loved the pork sausages. The toast and eggs were fine.

The steak tartare with the potatoes was an amazing combination as well. The duck leg was within expectation. It's very similar to a Peking duck leg. The pasta was done well as well.

Our waitress was really nice and the service was so quick! First and foremost if I had to describe our brunch in one word it would be FLAVOR! Everything I ate had such a bold flavor to it. I'll start with the side of bacon, this had such a beautiful smoky flavor like it had been smoked all morning and was the perfect level of crisp and melt in your mouth. Next is the chicken and waffles. Normally this is just some chicken fingers on a waffle but not here! This was an actual piece of chicken that was seasoned and cooked with an amazing breading, juicy and delicious! The waffle had the perfect cook with crisp but not cutting your gums up in your mouth and with the butter and syrup it soaked up for a nice bite. Where I think the star was lost for us is on the avocado toast, while it was delicious with the jammy egg, there was too much avocado for the bread and the lime/citrus flavor took away from the natural flavor of the avocado spread. Guava juice with redbull was great and they gave us ice on the side for our drinks which isn't typical at a lot of NY restaurants.

Super cool entrance, very industrial yet chic vibes. There were fairly nice views from the inside, but I imagine they're a lot better from the outside. For drinks I got the Lime Leaf and my bf got the Blackberry. Mine was refreshing and maybe a bit more spirit-forward than I prefer, but still good. My bf enjoyed his drink, which was quite strong. I also got the watermelon and feta appetizer, which I thought was quite good! The fruit was interestingly crispy (in a good way!) and it came with almost a lime sorbet dolloped on top which was cold and added a nice refreshing touch. A little on the pricey side but still overall a good experience. Service was relatively attentive.

The unmarked entrance and doorbell immediately set the tone, and once inside it feels like you stepped out of Manhattan and into a dark, old New York cocktail lounge. The velvet seating, curtains, low lighting, and little private nooks make the whole place feel intimate without being gimmicky. That atmosphere is very much intentional. The Chelsea location is the original Raines Law Room and is built around that hidden speakeasy experience. The cocktails were beautifully presented, and I liked that this felt like a place where you could actually sit with friends and have a conversation rather than compete with loud music. We also ordered some meat, cheese, olives, and crackers for the table, which was perfect alongside the drinks without turning the night into a full dinner. What stood out most to me was how cohesive everything felt. The drinks, glassware, lighting, service style, and decor all fit the same mood. It feels refined and special without trying too hard. Pay special attention to the bathroom wall art. Definitely not an inexpensive night out, but for a true New York cocktail bar experience, I thought Raines Law Room was absolutely worth visiting. This would be especially good for a date night or drinks with a small group.
