Get there early or make a reservation as they fill up fast! Dev is THE MAN. Order ginger fizz and the charcuterie and cheese plates. Seasonal and nightly rotations- honey pistachios, orgasmic bread!

This is a fantastic spot and one of the best bars in the world. Try the Amalia w vodka, St Germain and berries or the Daiquiri with Bacardi Heritage rum. You'll have a blast with this bar team!

The bartenders wear lab coats with the title of “Apprentice” embroidered on them, and they concoct some of the best and most unique drinks in the city, with quality liquors and fresh ingredients. Mehr erfahren

Employees Only was designed to be an industry hangout -- the kind of place where chefs, servers, and bartenders go when their restaurants close to enjoy a serious cocktail and food.

My friend loves the Manhattan cocktail. I think the cocktails are stronger than those in other bars, in a good way. The entrance is too poorly hidden to be a speakeasy tho.

If you are a big fan of whisky/ bourbon based cocktails like me, Yankee Notions and Common Sense are must haves. My wife was also amazed by Lazy Lover and Almost There.

Table service is primarily available for dinner, especially on weekends, and if you find yourself in New York on a Sunday night, be sure and stay for the Burlesque show that commences at midnight. Mehr erfahren

Burlesque on Sundays at midnight. Quality varies but drinks are always top notch. This is the place where I ate an Oyster for the first time in my life.

Seriously: no complaints. Great drinks, cool ambiance and nice service. Even the food is very good. Perfect for a late night with friends.

Our party of 4 had the best time for dinner & drinks. We recommend the Hemingway Daiquiri, the bacon-wrapped lamb chops, and the cheesecake is yummy.
PureWowJuni 21, 2017
Yes, at this point this “speakeasy” is anything but secret, but that doesn’t make it any less of a gem. We could go for a ginger smash and some bone marrow poppers right about now, come to think of it Mehr erfahren

Great cocktails, but they aren't better than any other cocktail bar in Manhattan, and they're certainly not worth the surcharge for the psychic in the front door (nor the overwhelming crowd).
Jovana ObradovicApril 6, 2015
Cozy setting, amazing cocktails & even better service. The bartenders are fun, easy-going and know what they're doing. Definitely a good place for drinks & tartar :)

The OG cocktail bar. Come on a weeknight and try and get a seat at the bar.
Eric VenkerJanuar 23, 2015
The all around famous bar in nyc still delivers, but the ambience brings it down several notches. Over crowded always. Attaboy and Angel Share have them beat hands down unless a food menu is a must.
AhuvaJuly 17, 2017
Reserve in advance (only available for dinner) or be prepared to wait, cocktails galore (try them all) and fresh oysters daily, great for a night out with a group or a date
Bruce HaydonDezember 30, 2016
Best get there really early to stake out a place at the bar, as this place is packed even during weeknights. Craft cocktails are (of course) great, but surprised by the amazing chocolate cheesecake .
Stephanie ZhongOktober 29, 2014
What a fun place! Good for groups before going out! There are tables and food services in the back, and a bar / dancing floor-ish space in the front. Drinks range from the classics to more edgy ones
Irakli AgladzeApril 6, 2019
Hard to be called a speakeasy when there’s a bouncer at the door :) but their food is absolutely amazing, and the cocktails are good too
Morgan McKeeJuly 16, 2019
Post sushi vibes. If you go early enough (9-10pm) line isn’t too long. Still crowded inside! Didn’t like my first and they were happy to whip up a quick second one. You should try at least once.
Julie SosciaJuly 17, 2018
This place has been popular for a long time, but avoid the weekends for less crowds. Try getting there early for the full speakeasy vibe and make friends with bartenders for secret menu cocktails

Arriving earlier in the evening for dinner will allow guests to make a reservation, and skip the crowded club-like atmosphere that later ensues. Make sure to get an order of the bone marrow poppers.

Great drinks and food - overall great bar. Try to go in the weekdays instead of the wknd. It's usually super crowded over the wknds, if you are planning on going make a reservation.

My favorite cocktail bar in the city. Cozy and surprisingly unpretentious. If you're looking to have a bite, the beef tartare is yummy - the bartenders make it at the bar!
D&A Travel: AndersDezember 29, 2013
[Restaurant/Bar] Art deco-themed cocktail bar with solid menu and special late-night menu (midnight to 3:30am). Try their Ginger Smash, Lazy Lover or classics like Manhattan. Fireplace lit in winter.
Elsa HNovember 8, 2014
Worth the wait for the line and drinks. Friendly bartenders, good cocktails, and bone marrow poppers.....!!! The playlist was dancey but not cheesy. Vincent can dance and mix a bad ass cocktail!
Ed KavisheMai 19, 2013
What can i say? We love everything, the cocktails (simply the best) the Steak Tartare (amazing) Bone Marrow poppers (if you into them) plus Hemingways. Take care of your bar tender....and security.

Excellent excellent cocktails. I really liked the monkey business but everyone seemed happy with their choices. Limited room at the bar but seats open up as time goes on
Percy McFarlaneFebruar 6, 2017
By now you know that this underground hole is the best place for cocktails in town. A little heavy on the pocket though - so go during happy hours unless someone is giving a treat. 😌
Sebastian OrionApril 25, 2013
Buen lugar en una zona de NY muy linda , es pequeño así que deben llegar tipo 7pm , la comida es muy cool pero no vayan con hambre porque es limitada su cantidad. Los tragos son increíbles.
Sara GraceJuly 30, 2015
Very cool vibe. Great drinks + mixologists. Ordered the bacon wrapped lamb shanks with a side of sautéed kale- absolutely delightful!
Danyel SmithDezember 28, 2013
sit at the actual bar, by the fire. the marrow puffs = amazing. lamb chops are delish but arrive super rare. the skate is great. and: the giant ice cubes in the scotch, rule.
Grayson DunningAugust 8, 2014
Best cocktails ever. Don't go here to drink beer. Don't go here to drink mixed drinks. Go here to fall in love with the cocktail again. These guys seriously care about the art that is the cocktail.
Michael Fox-RabinovitzFebruar 8, 2015
Great date place, wonderful atmosphere and cocktails, appetizers try the lamb in bacon, pasta is solid, as is butterscotch desert
Karen PhilipsJuly 6, 2013
Amazing steak tartar.Had the Bloody Mary, Pimms cup&a jalapeno cocktail on multiple visits&every drink seemed to taste better than the previous order.The parmesan fries with truffle oil was delicious
Chad HornerApril 19, 2016
it's doable as a walk-in if you get there early enough on a weeknight (by 9, preferably). the bar is LOUD, so if conversation is what you seek, try to snag a table
Joe MontesDezember 4, 2019
Super chic and cozy speakeasy. In the winter, they have a real fireplace which adds to the atmosphere. All the cocktails are made with great care.

Steak tartar and a lazy lover are my faves. Excellent staff from the door man, bartender, hosts, to the kitchen staff. Love this cozy spot in the west village!
Nicholas BeckJuly 17, 2013
Go right when it opens at 6 p.m., sit at the bar, and let the very talented and personable bartenders lead you in the right direction. Try to get there before "douchebag parade" arrives.
SiovonneAugust 26, 2014
Best Speakeasy Bar around. I love the ambience and the art of cocktails meticulously produced each night from these experts. The place has an infectious vibe to it.
Ania BańczykAugust 6, 2015
I just love this place. They have this good vibe that keeps you coming back again and again. Good food, perfect cocktails, friendly bartenders. It's maybe irrelevant but their logo is great 👍🏻
Lauren MacAugust 30, 2015
This place knows how to do cocktails, and you certainly pay for their expertise. Hemingway daiquiri is a refreshing citrus on a summer evening. Lively even during the week nights.
New York HabitatNovember 29, 2011
Enter through the unassuming fortune teller entrance and be transported into a speakeasy serving up great mixed cocktails and food. Try the West Side or the Ginger Smash with the Bone Marrow Poppers.
Adam HowardAugust 12, 2017
Really like the Art Deco style of this place. The bar staff are very good and I had the nicest mezcal based cocktail I think I've ever tasted
Sameepa ShettyFebruar 11, 2015
Steak Tartare, cocktails including Common sense, ginger smash & vodka w cucumber are must haves. Always crowded. Great music.
Gaia BennettJuni 16, 2015
You're in the hands of some of the most talented and creative mixologists in the city, so this is not the time for a gin and tonic. Order one of their specialty cocktails and let them impress you.
