After the San Genaro feast, Me and a couple of my girls wanted to grab a drink. We came to yelp and decided on Rooftop 93 and we were not disappointed. As soon as we came in, my breath was taken away from the view around us. The lights were dimmed and glowing. It feel very calm. I'd come here on a date. We grabbed a table and ordered our drinks. I had an Aperol Spritz which was yummy and refreshing. My girls both got a Margarita although I forgot which flavor. They loved it and ordered a 2nd round. We were able to relax, enjoy our drink and have some girls night quality time :-)

Such a vibe!!! The interior decor/design/ambiance is amazing with a great view. As to be expected, the drinks were definitely pricey with green tea shot $9 and cocktails nearing $20ish each which definitely adds up. Overall not the most worth it price wise but definitely come here for the vibes. Cute intimate girls night or date night spot. Not very crowd

Came here on a NYC trip we usually do a rooftop or two while visiting this is a cute little rooftop in the LES, reservations should be made although when we went it was pretty good crowd not over whelming. Both service and bartenders were great but even better were the cocktails, strong and smooth. Average cost per drink depending on what you order is between 14-18 which isn't bad for NYC. Drinks to definitely try the Manhattan and the Lychee Martini. Service when ordering was also good. The view from the empire is great and the music is a vibe. Will definitely recommend to take visitors since it's not very chaotic place.

18th floor indoor rooftop bar in Chinatown with drinks under $19 (average ~$15). We walked in on a Sunday in the summer and it was pretty empty! The bartender was also super nice and checked up on us regularly.

Great cute rooftop bar in the LES. If you wanna take people visiting NY you can take them here for a quick drink and a view of the Empire State Building. Service was good we ordered a couple bottles of rose and some cocktails

view :)

Decent view, but even though the weather was lovely the actual rooftop is closed and only opens for private events. Long island ice tea was good/strong, but wasn't able to get the popsicle cocktails we came there for :(

Drinks: 4/5 Good selection of wines and beers. Stopped by for a drink. I tried a sauvignon blanc but it was too sweet for my liking. They offered me a taste of two more varieties and found something I enjoyed more. Service: 5/5 Great staff and service! Very accommodating! Ambiance: 3/5 Great view but nothing special about the interior. Dimly lit. Good place to hang out with friends or potential date. Not too crowded or loud.

NYC Skyline

Although the outside rooftop is closed, the indoor still provides a great view of NYC skyline from the 18th floor. Service and drinks were great!

Not the most spacious rooftop bar, but definitely a good one. And the location makes it even better. I'm not sure if we just came at the right time, but it wasn't as crowded as most other rooftop bars on a Saturday evening. Yes, the space is a lot smaller than Mr. Purple or the other over-glorified spots, but it does the trick and the views are still gorgeous. Drinks were kinda pricey for the size - $12 for a small Rum Punch - but, when in Rome... There's also a lot of seating in the indoor space in case NYC summer heat and humidity isn't your thing.

My boyfriend and I decided to come here for drinks and we got some of the drinks with popsicles inside. In my case it was a lychee popsicle. The drinks were disgusting, the kind of drink I would have drank as a poor college kid just trying to get drunk. The view from the top also wasn't that great as you were too low down to see the whole city well and the view of the area was not that impressive. The place was also quite loud and noisy like it was trying to be a bad dance club, but since there weren't that many people inside it was just kind of boring and awkward. Definitely a bad choice for this city trip.

The place is small AF. The view is aight; it would be better if it was a view of a river or something. The issue is that it's in Chinatown; this neighborhood is ghetto and ugly AF. Beers are 10 bucks a pop, no happy hour.

Located at the 17th and 18th floor rooftop bar inside Wyndham Garden Chinatown. We were checked in to the hotel for New Year's Eve so we decided to check this rooftop bar out. They were having NYE event so we bought tickets through Eventbrite! The party was fun. It ran for 4 hours with open bar leading up to midnight. You get a pretty nice view of NYC up here! It was a nice experience! The staff were nice and accommodating! We'd probably be coming back to try this some other time when they don't have an event and just open for regular bar operations! But over all, this rooftop bar is awesome and if you are looking for a place to enjoy a breathtaking view of Downtown Manhattan including seeing the Empire State Building, you should try this place!

Generally speaking I am usually not a big fan of rooftop bars. They're usually overcrowded with tourists or bridge and tunnel trolls, overpriced and overhyped. Rooftops bars usually fall under the category of things in New York you think are fun in theory but when you get there, you realize it's actually not fun and that people coerce themselves into thinking it's fun because the said experience is supposed to be fun so therefore it must be fun. That being said, I went to rooftop 93 the other night because my friend organized a birthday party there. It was actually a relatively fun time. Great views. Good food. Nice decor. Somewhat pricey but decent for a rooftop bar. I got the nachos, which had a bit of a Korean twang to it with some kimchi and other Korean ingredients. It was tasty. The place is kind of small but I came here on a weeknight so it wasn't too crowded. All in all, I'd come back again if I had a friend in town and they wanted to hit up a rooftop bar.

Came here for a slightly early dinner after a Broadway show with a party of 4 on a Sunday evening…read more We had a reservation, but it didn't seem like we would have needed one, but I suppose better safe than sorry. The ambiance feels straight of the golden age, which is an aesthetic I'm certainly a sucker for. Even their robust cocktail menu fits the bill and is one of the prettiest menus I've ever had the joy of perusing. Staff was able to sit us a little bit ahead of our reservation which was also much appreciated. Wait staff was also very helpful and attentive, I don't think I've ever had my water glass so topped off! Starting off with cocktails, this place is a gin bar through and through and you'd be making a mistake if you didn't try one of their many options. I went with the 10,000 words, which you simply just give a spirit of your choice (I picked gin of course) and whether you antes) wanted your drink shaken or stirred and the bartender does the rest, so a bit of a surprise! I wound up with their version of The Last Word which was delightfully citrusy but I was hoping I'd wind up with something a little more adventurous app things considered. My girlfriend got the blackberry G&T, which was not only very pleasing to look at but delicious to boot. For food, we started with splitting some zucchini blossoms and beef cheek bao buns (both come in portions of 3). Both were tasty, but I love a good bao bun and these were so light and pillowy, I could have just went for an order of those for my main course. For the entree I went for the roasted half chicken, perhaps the most unassuming choice on the menu but this was maybe the best roast chicken I've ever had. Prepared perfectly, cooked to perfection, excellent portion size, and the kicker of it all was the stunning gravy that I was tempted to lick my plate for. Chicken is very easy to screw up, and they nailed it on all fronts here. My girlfriend went for the Valerie Signature burger with white cheddar and this thing did not mess around! A very rich patty, cooked to her temperature of choice served alongside some garlic truffle fries that made an American classic feel just a little more elevated. Our experience was delightful and I'd love to comeback here again, especially to check out more of the cocktail menu and soak in more of that golden age aura the place gives.

Cocktails are made with various types of rum and ingredients like grapefruit, maraschino, wormwood amaro, falernum, thyme, Assam tea, spiced lime, allspice, coconut, cucumber, nutmeg, sour orange. All the drinks keep with the tropical, fruity taste with a hint of spice. They are also broken up into categories (dry land = no alcohol, shallows = average amount of alcohol, and abyss (larger amounts of alcohol). The abyss section has some cocktails that are limited to two per customer. They have some bar bites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp toast, broiled oysters, ricotta, dumplings, sliders. I had the French fries with kimchi ranch, which were underwhelming. Bartenders were cool and kept the drinks coming. I got in immediately without an issue or a wait, but it was right after a snowstorm. I've seen some people struggle to get in or have a long wait.

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.

Our friends raved about this place and we of course were excited (and a bit skeptical at first) to try it. The concept: no menu + no lights + a few questions = the ultimate cocktail experience. The speakeasy vibe and the dark ambiance really makes this place feel even more exclusive. With just a few tables and the bar setting, you're in for an experience you won't forget (unless you answer the wrong questions and really end up with a drink you don't like HA). This wasn't my case. Of course I described my two favorite things: Negroni + mezcal. The obvious answer would be a mezcal Negroni, but that's not why one comes to a place like Attaboy. Our amazing curator came by to ask us all a few questions, write down a few words in the napkins, and mix up the perfect drink that our master bartender crafts, curates and creates. My drink came as I couldn't possibly imagine. It looked like a Negroni smelled like Oaxaca, with all the smoke simmering up and preparing my sensory experience, leading to the best first sip. Ladies and gentleman, I introduce you to The Devil's Backbone. A perfectly balanced drink I'll never forget, one that is sipped slowly and enjoyed thoroughly. It's sexy, it's smoky it's sipped. Attaboy gave the best mixology experience and we can't wait to be back. Pro tip: be sure to be as vocal as possible, even with ice, so you don't end up with a tiki drink if that's not your vibe.
