Came here on a quiet weeknight by a total mistake!…read more We came to grab some drinks at the rooftop bar and catch the sunset and gorgeous views. When we saw "Water Tower" on the elevator we decided to press it. SO GLAD WE DID. We landed at the Water Tower and walked into a fairly empty space decorated with art all the way to the ceiling, filled with natural light coming in and the views of the skyline were out of this world. We had to try their drinks of course to enjoy with the incredible view. Though the drinks are $21 and served in a plastic cup that evening, I was NOT expecting my drink to be this insanely delicious. I ordered the inferno Paloma which they infuse themselves with- and it was true perfection. By the way, each bar has their own menu which is pretty awesome and makes it even more fun. Also, Axel is the most incredible bartender and we absolutely loved his creations. Later that night we ordered a custom mandarin margarita, with a spicy twist, and WOW. He's truly talented and absolutely made us some awesome drinks that we can't stop talking about. Sunset with a view and a spicy mezcal drink? Yes and YES. We had this place all to ourselves and can't wait to be back. Friday nights they have DJ nights and you can also book the Water Tower for your own private events which is pretty cool!

The view was absolutely beautiful and made the whole evening feel extra special. Our server truly made our night! She was fun, personable, and so helpful, and her recommendations were spot-on. We loved the drinks, the atmosphere, and--most importantly--the FOOD! Everything we tried was delicious. We ordered almost the entire appetizer menu and honestly, every single one was a hit! The fried chicken and octopus were especially yummy. It was also a great spot for a celebration--beautiful setting, great energy, delicious food, and a gorgeous view. One thing we noticed was that many people around us seemed to be there mostly for drinks and weren't ordering much food. Their loss! The food is absolutely worth ordering, and I would hate for anyone to miss it. We had such a fun, memorable evening and will definitely be coming back!

Their playlist is great so vibes were on point. We all shared the lemon drop cocktail tower. It was super cute, tasty, fun, and did what it had to do for us pre-day party. For food, I tried the bao fish tacos and the crab curry gyoza. Both of these items were good but for the amount that comes with them it's pricy (you get 2 small bao tacos and 4 pieces of gyoza, both of which are $20-22 each). I liked the bao tacos the most because of the mixture of flavors and textures, including the excellently friend fish. The gyoza was different. It wasn't bad but I think I'm just used to crispy/fried gyoza vs these which were boiled/soft. My friends really enjoyed the crab fried rice. The fried sweet plantains were just ok to me; The batch we got were dry and not that sweet.

Because we had a flight to catch we didn't indulge in the full menu and kept it light with the brined chicken bites and French fries. The chicken bites were juicy, nice crisp and crunch and came with a house ranch sauce and honey mustard. The French fries seemed home made, best eaten while hot! Would've loved some kosher or sea salt on them. I hade a homemade lemonade to drink, nice and tart. And also stole a bite of friends beignets and they were pretty good, I believe it had hot honey on them and the Parmesan cheese was a nice touch. The service was also great! I forgot the bartender name but he was kind and patient with our large group! Pretty accommodating.

I've never ate here, but I recommend grabbing drinks during the summer months when they open the canopy. It's a nice rooftop feel. However, I went on a fall Saturday night and the place was completely empty. I walked upstairs and even wondered if the bar was open due to a chair blocking the entrance. If I didn't ask the waiter if they were open, I would assume they were closed and would've left. If it was near closing hours, I would understand, but it was 2 hours prior to it. Regardless, this place is great. It's extremely spacious and offers a high quality dining/drinking experience.

A marquis of Michael Solomonov's restaurants is that you will never leave hungry. At Jaffa, you…read morewill leave hungry, poor, or both. It is too bad Yelp doesn't allow half stars as I would honestly put this one at a 3.5 and am rounding up. While the quality of the elevated seafood bites is immaculate, they are just that: a bite or two of food, for an elevated price considering the amount of food you get. After spending $76 a person, we were still hungry, whereas that amount would have been enough to feed two average women at another good restaurant. But if you go with an expense account or trust fund baby, definitely get the scallops and the yellowtail pastrami because those two items will blow your mind. Our waitress pointed these two out to us and we're grateful for her guidance because it was spot on. Paying for bread at a Solomonov joint is odd. No dessert menu is odder. Wheelchair access details: The bar is on a terrace. The accessible entrance is through the Hoxton hotel. A staff member will take you through the k'far kitchen and up via a service elevator. No barriers once you are upstairs and plenty of accessible outdoor and indoor/outdoor options, including a small length of wheelchair height bar. A perfectly functional though unexciting wheelchair accessible restroom is available.

The bartender said it was a "preauthorization fee" lol. Lmao even. Emailed about this and Megan had the balls to get sassy with me. Attached is verbatim what Megan said to me via email. No attempt to make things right, just to become sassy and catch an attitude. "You said in your review that you paid for your drinks initially, but were charged again when you closed your tab. Did you pay cash for the round and also start a tab? If you paid when you received the drinks, why did you go up to close the tab again? Or were two of every drink charged to the credit card, and you signed the receipt anyway?" Really classy Megan. Says a lot about not only the crooks that are employed here, but also the higher up crooks who are in charge of hiring. Would say do better, but I don't care. Haven't been back, won't come back, will actively stop anybody I care about from coming here.

*Warning* yelp review of doom #cringe…read more So I went into this bar serendipitously, This review is all about their first listed cocktail the chapo chapo. Long story short as a self proclaimed spicy king this drink delivered on So many levels, not every, but so many. Sweet,spicy,tart,smoky,light handed, strong, and at best - serial experiments layered - this drink is actually spicy. The rim concoction they made will numb your lips Szechuan style and on round two three and four it will come back to pucker you back to the beginners mind like the fein you are. Review of doom, precisely. Make it spicier, exalt the kings unto the precipice of the river, I demand it be so, because doom is on the precipice.13 dollars well spent!
