    I've been here a few times and the vibes are nice and there's never a line to get to the rooftop when I've been here. Drinks are yummy but pricey. There isn't much service though - it's basically self serve. You go to order drinks at the bar, and then you bring the drinks yourself to where you wanna sit. One time I was there, the seat cushions were wet which was really gross... I told someone who worked there but they said there's nothing they can do about it.

    First off I want to say that this place had decent drinks and was cute. The view is not great, it's really just a view of buildings, but the place itself is nice and cozy. But my friend and I were wayyy overcharged for our drinks. Regardless of whatever 20% "service charge" they have (which I didn't know about until reading reviews after), we were still overcharged. $30 of drinks plus 20% should not equal $42. I gave them a call and whoever I spoke to hung up on me when I was trying to figure out the pricing issues. I'm wondering if the bartender tipped himself, as he did not turn the tablet around for either of us to choose a tip amount. I initially said to my friend I'd love to come back, but after figuring out this nonsense, we will not return.

    Super cute rooftop bar with a chill vibe. Wanted a cocktail after dinner to just unwind a bit, K-32 hit the mark, and with a great view of the ESB. Barkeep was super nice and chatted with her for a bit. Outstanding mule to boot. The only thing that's keeping it from 5 stars is the hood vent exhaust from the eateries below seem to blow right into the bar area. Not a huge deal if you just ate at a KBBQ joint cause you smell like it already. But if you're in office attire, may want to think twice.

    Easy rooftop bar with cute vibes! Intimate but fun with decor and music. We came just for one drink before karaoke and it was perfect.

    The best kept secret in NYC is that any cocktail lounge/bar in K-Town will generally be very low key and quaint because they are not the main attraction on the block. K-32 offers a great menu of drinks and an enclosed space with comfy seating. There is a nice view of the Empire State Building, but not necessarily a cityscape view. It's a nice spot to grab a drink after dinner in midtown!

    Prosecco, which they spell "Prosseco" on your receipt.

    Happy hour is from 4 to 7 and through Wednesday, and they feature drinks from $10 to $15. I thought about leaving as no one was there at 4:15 and everything was fake: the table, the flowers, the cup for water. You will be charged a service fee of $2 even if you decide on the $10 Prosecco. But at least it comes in a pretty glass? I don't understand K-Town anymore and desperately miss Pocha 32.

    Rooftop bar with delicious cocktails and amazing view of the Empire State Building. The inside seating is limited but it wasn't busy on the Winter Saturday Night we went. Perfect place to sit and enjoy a drink - can't wait to come back in the summer and sit outside

    This is a super cute bar right next to the Empire State Building. We got there around 6 and it wasn't very busy all all, which was nice to get away from the noise and hustle for a bit. Happy hour also has cheap 6 dollar beer and 10ish dollar well drinks. I would recommend if your looking for a cute bar to relax for a bit!

    A hidden rooftop bar high up away from the chaos below that is ktown. Coming on a Halloween Saturday weekend and still seats outside says something. Great ambiance, good music, nice decor, what more can you ask for? I really liked the decor of the outside patio and seating arrangements. Looks like that was recently renovated. This small spot is nice and cozy and the patrons weren't the rowdy bunch that you see at pochas.

    The view from the bar's rooftop was stunning! The tranquil atmosphere provided a perfect escape, and the staff was exceptional.

    A friend of ours recommended this awesome rooftop bar - we loved it! With a very extensive drink menu, there is lots to choose from and nearly every type for every person. We also grabbed a few orders of their jumbo pretzels and wings (yummy!). The music was great, the staff was phenomenal (and fun!), and the green tea shots were Definitely must come back next time we're in the city!

    Small rooftop in the heart of ktown. The elevator for the hotel took a very long time but once we got to the rooftop, the ambiance was nice. Security guard in front was pleasant and friendly. The bar was very small and barely any seats and the rooftop was too small with only a couple tables. It got packed by 7pm. The drinks we got were fine, priced at $14 for specials. We ordered the pita and hummus which came with tiny pieces of pita and not enough for dipping the hummus. My only complaint is the service charge they automatically add to the bill. I should be able to tip whatever amount I want depending on my experience. The servers were nice but it seemed hectic as it got busier. I probably won't be back.

    Super cozy and lowkey rooftop bar in the middle of k-town!! We walked into the hotel the bar is connect to and went straight up to the 14th floor! The patio has a few tables and we were able to walk in as a party of 6 without waiting - UNHEARD of for a Friday night in the area. The drinks were super unique and strong too. My favorites were the slice of paradise (came in a cute tiki styled cup) and the beautiful friendship (had egg white foam!!). Other drinks that we tried & would recommend are the K32, peaches, & cafe oaxaca! You really can't go wrong with any of the cocktails and the staff here were all super friendly! Will definitely come back here for delicious drinks and vibes :)

He was leering at me and making inappropriate comments that made me nauseous. Guy was old enough to be my Dad. Pretty sure he was sneaking pics of me too with his phone. I was waiting for my friend to arrive before going to see a show and ordered a neat scotch and an Allagash White when I sat down. He gives me a look and tells me I "drink like a man". Then made other comments questioning my sexuality. Total misogynistic predator creep. I didn't finish the scotch because I know what Macallan tastes like and that crap he poured me was like Costco booze. Then I worried whether or not he put something fishy in my glass. I couldn't settle the tab and get out of there fast enough. Our plan was to eat there when my friend finally arrived, but f that. Ended up meeting her at the pizza place a few blocks away. Thinking of this dude literally makes my skin crawl. I'm not one to write reviews often, but he shouldn't get away with that behavior. Aren't bars supposed to exude good vibes and provide hospitality? My experience here was not only traumatic, but a total waste of money too.

I called to find out a solution as the message said we could show up a half hour later than our original reservations and was transfered to a manager. Who ever the manager was on 5/17/26 at about 8 pm said ya they got the place from 2 pm good luck .
