4.3/5 only because a Ethan host/manager at the front told me they didn't have a charger even though i said i wasn't from the city and my phone was dead, luckily Kierra (another host, i hope i'm spelling her name correctly ) felt sympathy for me and put it on the charge, my server Geraldo was amazing i had the charbroiled burger and the grilled prawns accompanied by a class of chablis they were good, wonderful experience mostly and i loved seeing the view of the city and the rotating vibe gave the place a unique and interesting vibe, 50/50 on whether id be back

Seafood tower

Probably top 5 best seafood tower along with my fave drink of the year: the Katz! Love, love, love! Got to see an awesome view of NYC! This place is so fun!

Wow wow wow. Such an exquisite place. The ambiance and the view is indeed incredible. The restaurant rotates just ever so slightly feeling like you're on your own version of Lauryn's Hills 'Everything is Everything' music video where the world is spinning on a vinyl record. It was so cool to experience. Our waiter Geraldo made our experience feel very elegant. His recommendations, especially for the drinks were spot on. There was an amazing pianist that was playing a variety of good songs. There was an option to request songs of course. The food was good. Atleast the selections we made considering other reviews. The shrimp was very very very fresh. And HUGE! I loved that they gave me a good proportion of cocktail sauce, that had a hint of horseradish in it. I had the lamb and I would say it was prepared perfectly. The sauce with it was the best part of each bite, which was very juicy too. I would say the most unforgettable part was the elevator ride to get to the view. It was quite fast and futuristic, almost felt like you were going to keep going high in the sky. Lovely place for a special dinner, date night or if you're a tourist with some taste that wants to see the view.

...almost finished!

We were looking for a quiet 'rooftop' bar to have a quick drink before the show...and 'stumbled' across The View! What a pleasant surprise to find such a lovely venue in a Marriott! It's worth a visit!!

Great revival of a storied spot! Views are still great but no longer the only reason to visit. One of their well executed cocktails is a good start, oyster selection is satisfying and the 18oz dry aged bone in rib-eye is done right.

My family and I stopped by The View after a Broadway show during a weekend trip to NYC. We just got some light apps and drinks and really enjoyed our time. I was worried it might feel a little gimmicky / too touristy, but the atmosphere was actually great. We walked in after a matinee and got a table for 4 without too much of a wait. Service was a little slow, but our server was friendly and helpful. Prices were a little high, but as to be expected for the area and honestly not as bad as I expected. It was really cool to be able to be able to see the view in all directions, and the floor was moving so slowly you barely noticed. But I did get lost on the way back from the bathroom - my table wasn't where I left it!

48 floors up to the Lounge at The View NY and we had an incredible time. Early for our reservation, we asked to sit at the bar for a drink before dinner. The Lounge has its own menu which includes their signature Katz's Martini and small plates. This was the perfect prelude to dinner which we had in the restaurant just one floor below. Located in the Theater district, the View is known for their rotating views of the NY skyline as they are NYC's only revolving restaurant. That's right -- the floor on the outer circle of the restaurant and the inner part of the building are slowly moving. It was pretty cool to see! Katz's Martini was a nod to Katz's Deli -- Brisket-washed gin with vermouth and pastrami spices, and a pickle. Camila, our server, gave us recommendations as we wanted to try basically everything on the menu. We started with the East Coast Oysters and the Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Cake. For dinner, I had the American Wagyu Picanha and my girlfriend had the Halibut. We split a side of mashed potatoes which were so good that I could've licked the plate. For dessert we went with the Coffee Toffee Date Cake along with an espresso martini and the Whipped and Swirled. Whipped and Swirled was a yummy dessert cocktail with Macallan Scotch, Rum, whipped cream and banana condensed milk. It was dessert in a glass!

Never went to the previous iteration so I can't comment on how it's changed, but Danny Meyer's USH has taken it over, and I had a great meal here. Called on a Saturday and got a reservation for the same evening. I tried: + Gin martini - excellent + Caesar salad - perfect + Prime rib - excellent + Mashed potatoes - perfect + The view chocolate cake - great + Vanilla ice cream - def recommend with the cake I loved the food, though I could take or leave the rotating restaurant concept (I realize that's the point but lol). Would try the date cake next time.

My sweet hubby took me out on the town in my favorite city in the US, to celebrate my 70th birthday - and our 14th anniversary in March! He's a native New Yorker from Brooklyn, so it's always an adventure when we visit. We experienced a magnificent meal atop the Marriott Marquis Times Square Hotel - in the revolving restaurant, The View! From start to finish, the ambiance, the live piano music, the wait staff - the food - created a memorable night I shall cherish always! There were so many delectable items on the menu, it was hard to decide. We both chose the double-cut American Lamb Chops, flavorful and tender. We paired it with the smooth, elegant and red fruity flavors of the Pinot Noir. The hubby also had the Caesar salad, grilled broccoli and pomme puree. I ordered the creamed spinach and button mushrooms. DELICIOUS!!! The 360-degree view of the New York skyline at night is indescribable! A complete revolution takes about an hour. It was so breathtaking and serene, with the sounds of soft piano playing, muffled conversations, tinkling glasses and ebb and flow of laughter - we were there for two and half revolutions! It was easy to lose track of time - and we never felt rushed! We shall return! I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion. Because the 'vibe' as the young people say, is right - and will promote only the most positive outcomes for whatever you have planned! *Special thanks to the wait staff for attending to us with such kindness and generousity. I regret that I have forgotten the names ( should have written them down) - a young man and a young lady - the night of March 21. They were top tier!

The View is definitely a unique NYC experience. The restaurant slowly rotates 360° while you eat, which is a really cool concept but can be a little disorienting at first Lol. Service was on point and the prime rib was easily the star of the show highly recommend it. Right on broadway in Midtown great place to check out if your visiting and need a post/pre show meal

Amelia B.

I made a reservation on open table. Everything was on point from beginning to end. The wait staff was friendly and professional. The food was delicious. We had the burger, pasta, and prime rib. The rotating dining was awesome. But the chocolate cake was AMAZING! Okay- don't was pricey but worth it for a special dinner while in NYC. I recommend it for a special occasion too! There was a live pianist too!!

Beautiful time
Jay A.

Score would have been higher but the server was not the brightest even after instructing her what we needed. Other than that the place was beautiful and I would love to come back here again. Gorgeous atmosphere that should be experienced at least once. Prost!

Walked in on a Wednesday night around 8pm and my friend and I were seated almost immediately. We…read morewere pleasantly surprised by the new Aegean menu, which featured drinks inspired by countries by the Mediterranean Sea. It was my first time there but I was expecting the menu I saw online, not this new one. We tried 2 drinks: one inspired by Turkish figs and one inspired by lemons and the "Miracle Berry", which inverts your palate and turns sour into sweet! I really enjoyed both drinks. The figs one came with a sweet fig granola bite and the lemon one really did taste sweet after eating the "Miracle Berry"! I'd definitely come back to try their many other drinks.

Wanted one more drink to end the night so stopped in late on a weeknight…read more The drinks were really quite good. I liked how they organized the menu by country/geography to facilitate an understanding of the flavor profiles. I got two of the date & fig-flavored smoked whisky drinks and it was a well made, balanced, and very good. Not cheap at some $25 or something, but middle of Manhattan with some creative ingredients means I guess it is what it is. Servers seemed a bit annoyed to have to deal with us shortly before close as I think they were hoping to usher people out and close down maybe a little early. One the one hand I get it, on the other hand you've got two paying customers on a slow night.

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.

Charming speakeasy. No sign out front. Go downstairs and ring the doorbell. I'm to,d they have 25…read morecocktails on the menu which rotates periodically. They do take reservations on Resy.

Patent Pending is has such cool speakeasy vibes, think dimmed lighting and candles at each table in a very intimate space. Our plan was to get wine and a cheese board however, the kitchen was closed due to a family emergency. We could only order chips or bar nuts with our drinks. Disappointing but what can you do? We ordered both the chips and bar nuts to go along with our drinks. And instead of wine, I opted for a cocktail! They have a pretty extensive cocktail menu with all these crazy concoctions. I went for the Strange Magic which was citrusy and refreshing. I'll definitely be back to visit again and hopefully next time will get the cheese board :)

One of my friends and I were looking to grab a drink before calling it a night. She had been to…read morePatent Pending before and had good things to say, and since it wasn't too far from us we decided to head over. Patent Pending is a speakeasy, located behind Patent Coffee. It was dark when we entered the coffee shop but an ajar door gave way to the bar. The decor is a homage to the works of Nikola Tesla, which can be seen in the subtle electric theme throughout the space and the naming of the cocktails. The space isn't too large - the bar and stools take up most of the space but they also have some booths/tables. The place looks great. The cocktail menu is very creative - I got one of their seasonal mixes that was actually two drinks in one. The main cocktail was meant to be sipped first and they provided a small glass of beer to be sipped after. The name escapes me but it was very good. Since we had cocktails at dinner, we only stayed for one round. Service was good, and overall I enjoyed my time at Patent Pending. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu.
