I love a good chophouse especially one in walking distance from where I frequent during the week. I stopped by with a friend and we tried the filet mignon, some options from the raw bar, we got a few appetizers, and tried some of their signature cocktails. The filet mignon was absolutely delicious, and the fresh tuna tartare still lives rent free in my mind. I was told the fish supply is chosen fresh daily from Long Island. The Caesar salad was definitely one of my favorite bites of the night. One of their signature mezcal cocktails was a standout to me. It was so refreshing and perfectly balanced. The space is cozy, with vinyl records adorning the walls, giving it a really unique vibe. Everyone working there was so helpful when making menu decisions. It's the perfect spot to celebrate birthdays, holidays, or any special occasion and it's definitely a place I'll be coming back to!

After hearing so much buzz about Vinile Chophouse in the Flatiron District, I finally had the chance to experience this Italian-inspired gem for myself - and it absolutely exceeded all expectations. Exceptional Service That Sets the Standard From the moment we walked through the doors at 31 West 17th Street, the attentive service was immediately apparent. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly, and anticipated our needs without being intrusive. The staff's genuine hospitality truly embodies the restaurant's "Come As You Are" philosophy, making us feel like royalty throughout the entire evening. Every detail was handled with care, from the perfectly timed course delivery to the thoughtful wine recommendations. The Music Experience: A Stroke of Genius What truly sets Vinile apart is their incredible vinyl music concept. The restaurant features an extensive collection of vinyl records spanning rock, funk, pop, jazz, Italian disco, and iconic crooners, all played through a world-class Italian K-Array speaker system. The nostalgic sounds create an atmosphere that's both sophisticated and energetic - you feel transported while the music perfectly complements the dining experience without overwhelming conversation. Outstanding Cuisine Chef Joseph Roperti has crafted a menu that brilliantly marries Italian elegance with classic American chophouse traditions. The handmade pasta was exceptional, and their award-winning prime steaks lived up to their reputation. Every dish showcased quality ingredients and expert technique. The fresh raw bar offerings and creative chophouse dishes like the Wagyu Bavette demonstrated the kitchen's versatility and skill. Atmosphere and Ambiance The space itself is stunning - replacing the stuffy white tablecloths of traditional Italian dining with a sexy, Italian chic vibe. The intimate setting, combined with the vinyl spinning ambiance, creates an experience that feels both upscale and relaxed. Whether you're at the gorgeous bar or in the main dining room, the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between elegant and approachable. Final Thoughts Vinile Chophouse has successfully created something truly special in NYC's competitive dining scene. The combination of exceptional service, innovative music concept, outstanding food, and welcoming atmosphere makes for an unforgettable evening. This is the kind of place that reminds you why New York City dining is legendary. Highly recommended for: Date nights, special celebrations, business dinners, or anyone looking for a unique dining experience that breaks the mold of traditional Italian restaurants - this place is definitely worth planning ahead for!

I initially had reservations for Vinyl Steakhouse, but I saw this sister location and was intrigued. I didn't know that it was a newly opened restaurant, so our party was in for the ride. I made dinner reservations for Friday at 7:30pm. We were seated right away at the 2nd floor. The restaurant was elegant but had a lot going on with pushing the DJ vinyl vibe, which you got more of that feel downstairs. They have an eclectic collection of music, so the playlist for the evening was pleasantly random across different genres. I personally enjoyed that. What's cool is that you can request an artist/album, but unfortunately we didn't get to hear our request during our dinner (Van Halen's 1984 album). Not a make or break, but it would've been a cherry on top. Customer service was great. Food came out in a timely manner, and hats off to our server, Patrick. Personable, attentive, and wanted to make sure we were having a quality experience. I ordered the Milkshake cocktail, which was a treat! I believe the hard spirit was vodka with prosecco that I poured over a lemony sorbet. It basically reminded me of a boozy granita. Loved the bread service. Vinile has this beautiful focaccia topped with sweet grilled onions. We were offered options of Nduja butter, a burrata/olive oil dip, or white anchovies. We settled on the burrata dip, which was a solid choice, and Patrick hooked me up with a couple of fresh anchovies. We shared the brussels sprouts, ribeye, soft shell crab, and pappardelle with beef cheeks: The brussels came on a whipped ricotta spread. We ordered this as a side dish to the steak instead of a small appetizer plate. The pappardelle was the best dish. Perfectly al dente pasta, tender beef, and lovely sauce. I wasn't sold on the ribeye at first, but it got better the longer it rested. Its accompanying sauce was nice. The soft shell crab was my least of the 4 dishes, and we all agreed that it was a missed opportunity. I thought the sauce was too salty, and maybe it would've benefited from a light battered fry (probably being biased because that's how I prefer soft shell crab to be prepped).

Shocked to see how little reviews this place has. Really great spot. Went there for a work dinner, 4ish courses family style with multiple dishes. Quantity was on the low end but the quality was top notch. Wine, atmosphere, food, and service was fantastic. Highly recommend checking it out

Wow. Vibe, excellent. Service was amazing(ask for Valentine, he's adorable). The FOOD! OMG, soooo good. Tuna tartare was so good you'll never order it anywhere else. Filet melts in your mouth. The wines by the glass were outstanding, and the tiramisu is perfect! One of the best meals I've had the pleasure of enjoying . I'd marry that chef

50 Day Dry-Aged 32 ounce Bone-in Ribeye (Medium Rare)

Food was phenomenal. Tuna Belly Toast was insanely good. The 50 day dry-aged ribeye was, unsurprisingly, also amazing. The cocktails (Tinto Martini and Rye fall special) were great. Rosti potato was tremendous. Potato Mulino was good, but a bit gummy. The music was great as well, and they let use choose an album to play which was fun. We'll be coming back and would highly recommend!

Owner gifted the celebrant a vinyl to sign to make it memorable.

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.

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.

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.

I opted for a pastel sour while my companion asked for a drink called The Last Word - it was no longer on the menu but they obligingly made it for us anyway. The menu consists of mostly small plates and is seafood forward, but we shared a petite dish of steak frites, tender and cooked perfectly medium rare. Our server was very sweet but service was slow on the night, and by the time we received our utensils the food was cold. However we were not rushed and were able to linger a bit to finish our conversation. For those who savor finely concocted cocktails paired with fresh raw bar offerings in a salon-like setting, this is the spot for you.
