    Such a cool spot!! it's three stories with different levels. The Photo Booth is on the second level. The service was great. The trio handroll set was amazing must order!!! The candy was solid nothing special, but it comes in a cool case. Drinks were great. Got their similar version to a porn star martini and it was amazing. Great atmosphere. Good for drinks and small bites.

    Such a cute bar with gorgeous red interior and each floor has its own vibe. Ordered drinks, popcorn chicken, fries and the candy box! They also have a photobooth as well!

    This intimate speakeasy can be the start to your evening or a mellow nightcap. The service I received was great, my waiter was so pleasant. Thank you for my birthday rosé & candy dish. Small plates, drinks and disco music with retro style decor. I tried the popcorn chicken and fries (so yum) along with a cherry Americano. Make sure to RSVP.

    Whimsical speakeasy vibe bar with well thought out drinks, great for groups and girls nights, cute photo ops and mood lighting

    Angel is the BEST every drink has been amazing. He is constantly checking in and making sure what he made it to my accommodations!!!!

    we had a resy and 2 bigger parties were able to enter before us. candy was indeed not in a candy box but was charged the same. thus, half the candy was stale and came late since we had to ask where it was. asked if we could take pics upstairs (iconic stairs!) and they said no. drinks and food were mid but concept was cute.

    Such a cool spot to meet with some girl friends and catch up. It's a small cozy intimate vibe and the all red is sexy. I didn't try any food but the drinks were good and I love the candy box. Service is good too. It's perfect before a night out would go back!

    Very chill vibes. Drinks are amazing along with the staff. Bartender Angle was 10/10.

    *Pearl Box is located above Heroes restaurant and is only accessible via climbing 3 flights of stairs. It is not ADA accessible* Had a reservation for a Saturday night. We showed up on time and were taken upstairs. The hosts were all friendly. The space is not big at all. Maybe 10-15 tables that seat 2-4 people. We were sitting on a small couch near the front. It was a comfortable couch! The space is gorgeously decorated in a 70s vibe. Music playing with a mix of old and new. Wish they played more disco. Service was attentive. The only downside was their lack of vegetarian options on the menu. Both my friend and I are veg and the only two things we could order were the bowl of candy and a bowl of potato chips. Both were very good however! The drink menu is pretty interesting. I had a drink called a Floradora which was botanical and made of gin. My friend had a Sazerac. They were not the best drinks I've had but not the worst either. There's a bathroom upstairs that's decorated with 70s playgirl and playboy magazine covers which was fun. After 90 minutes, we were asked to leave so they could seat the next reservation. This was fine with us because we were done after our one drink and snacks. I'd be inclined to stay longer if I had more food to snack on. The sound level wasn't loud and overall, this was a pretty nice, chill environment even on a Saturday evening. Would go back and really hope they add more veggie options to the menu. There is apparently a $45 per person minimum but we did not meet it and were not asked to either. Maybe because there was not much for us to order as vegetarians.

    Went to the pearl box last night for my first time . Lola was bartending and was the sweetest person ever. Made me so many amazing cocktails. I also got the grilled cheese which was excellent as well and the candy bowl. Everything was amazing from the decor ,service , food and drinks.

    Worth every penny and all the hype. Took my cousin here for a birthday celebration and we did all the gimmicky things. They were worth it! Definitely go for the caviar service and even if you think you don't want it... get the candy box. So much fun! The atmosphere was definitely disco era on 100 and I absolutely loved every minute of it. If you're like me who grew up on disco, this is your spot! Very fun.

    I don't know where to begin. I came for my daycation and I had this as my last stop of the night before heading back to amtrack! What a great send off. First off... the decor is just spot on. It's so chic and rich in color and vibes. I love the sound selections and everything about what I laid my eyes upon. I had two cocktails (their happy hour is great for the price) and treated myself to French fries and caviar!!! Did some caviar bumps with my server since I was dining solo and really just had a great time. The food and service was lovely as well!!! Definitely worth the hype it receives on TikTok.

    Paradise Lost is a speakeasy tiki bar located on 2nd Ave in the East Village. A friend & I went…read morethere after having dinner at Spicy Moon a few blocks away. We wanted to have after-dinner cocktails in a chill space, so we searched on our phones & saw Paradise Lost address via Google. We proceeded to walk down & was unable to find the establishment due to their being no front sign. After walking back & forth a few times, we saw another group walking towards the door & they confirmed the place. We walked inside the front door pressed a "doorbell" & lo & behold we gained entry after the previous group went inside. Definitely an incognito entrance. Once inside that door there is someone to greet you, & take your information. There is a forest/ grass/ jungle-looking foyer/ hallway we walked down to get to the next door. Before we knew it, we were near the "Paradise Lost No Vacancy" neon sign w/ an arrow pointing towards the snake-shaped knob door. It gets opened & a supercool speakeasy awaits.... Paradise Lost has mixed style table / seating arrangements throughout the place. A bar seating section, booth-style seating area, lounge- style seating area, etc. We got there a little after 7pm, so the afterwork crowd was in full swing. Paradise Lost has interesting atmosphere. At times a Gothic / Medieval Vibe, meets place w/ shipwreck decor, meets eleganct /club vibe w/ beautiful ceiling lighting, etc. Music played in the background. Staff are friendly, energetic, & attentive. We were pleasantly overwhelmed w/ the vast selection of tiki cocktails that were on the menu. Paradise Lost also have an intimate selection of snacks/ food menu items. This included Popcorn, Tater Tots, Devilled Eggs Rangoon Dip, etc. We ordered some cocktails served in unique tiki mugs & a bucket of popcorn to munch on w/ our drinks. The popcorn is flavored w/ Sea Buckthorn & Browm Butter, which gave it an special flavor profile. Our cocktails were well-prepared & nice & strong. Paradise Lost has individual unisex bathroom stalls & a communal vanity & sink area. The bathroom stalls have spooky voices coming from a speaker as you use the bathroom. I was so humorously taken aback, it had me laughing when I came out...Definitely a different thing to experience in the bathroom - lol. Before we left we watched one of the bartenders do a cocktail "fire" presentation for some patrons in a booth seated area. Wow.... Paradise Lost accepts walk-ins only, no reservations. Paradise Lost accepts groups of 8 or less, unless you are requesting to book the space for a private event. Ages 21+ paradiselost.nyc @paradiselostnyc Paradise Lost is open everyday - 5pm-2am.

The drinks were very interesting and creative. The seawater martini I will say was a bit too strange for my taste but I still thought it was good. Service was very good as well. Would definitely recommend to visit if you like gothic stuff and tiki bars.

    Serious attitude here. The cocktails were very tasty but the service and vibe were so off-putting,…read moreI will never go back. I made a reservation in person more than 24 hours in advance. I wanted to treat an old friend to a quick birthday toast before a show she was attending nearby. Later that night, another friend became available to join but, because they do not actually have a phone that takes calls (only offers an announcement to go to Resy or email) adding another person was not at all easy. I would have had to cancel and rebook and wasn't sure I'd be able to (reservation was for a Saturday night) In most places, a table for 3 easily accommodates 4. But not here. When two of us arrived, they made it clear this was a big problem. I would have walked out right then but I would have been charged $90! We decided to stay and make the best of it, which was a challenge. For a speakeasy, the vibe was aggressive, not relaxing. Very loud music and not great acoustics.) Too cramped to be comfortable, proving that small does not necessarily mean cozy! We asked if we could take a chair from the table next to us, which was empty (it was only 6 pm; I told our server we'd be gone by 7 because my friend, the birthday girl, had to catch a show.) We were told No! To say the waiter was cold, unfriendly, and indifferent is generous. He was totally rude. He literally told my friend she couldn't sit in a chair that was otherwise empty, knowing we'd be leaving momentarily. Then he had the gail to hand me the bill with a 22% tip pre-selected...and watched over me while I signed it! Definitely the least satisfying $100 I have ever spent. Disappointing. It was good to see my friends, but I so wish I hadn't picked this place. Never again.

Dim lighting, plush seating, rich wood + wallpaper details, and that lounge-library vibe make the place feel like a secret hideout right in the middle of Midtown. It's moody, cozy, and effortlessly intimate -- perfect for a date night, a chill catch-up, or just a night out with good drinks. Nice service, too! However: be ready for the price tag. The cocktails are absolutely beautiful -- well crafted, creative, and flavorful -- but each one will remind you that you're not exactly paying dive-bar prices. It's worthwhile, but the "overpriced drinks" vibe absolutely hits. That said: the interior design and ambience are amazing. The mix of antique-meets-modern decor, low lighting, and comfy couches gives you that classic speakeasy romance. If you appreciate aesthetics and vibe over cheap drinks -- this is your spot. If you want a night out that feels deliberate and special rather than casual and cheap -- Osamil Upstairs delivers.
