Empire Rooftop @ Empire Hotel

The prices aren?t obsurd. The seating areas are nice. Get a reservation. The food is good. The service is really nice. The drinks are tasty. Good place to sit and have a chat with friends. Not really a place to go to and dance though. Not really a good first stop if you?re bar hopping either, cause there?s nothing around here. But overall nice place

What a horrific rooftop experience. Came here 7 years ago and was amazing. What a downfall. Slow service. Left waiting for 20 mins without drinks. Asked to buy a bottle a was told they don?t do that. They closed the roof on the ?rooftop? because of noise complaints from next building ?!? . Even with the roof closed, they?re playing music a 4/10 sound level to not offend neighbours. Empty. Severs were polite not their fault but incredibly lame and avoid at all

Came here for a drink on a Monday night after the show at Lincoln center, the place is very empty so it was very easy to get a table. The service was excellent, our waitress Astor was amazing and super friendly and carry out a good conversation, we had a good laugh. The manager also came over to check on us. The drinks are great, don?t have any complain about it, the price is high but for this area and this iconic gossip girl location it?s very decent, if you have a

GREAT spot to gather with friends. We got a reservation very last minute for a group of 6 and it couldn't have been more perfect. A Thursday night in August at 6:30 and we snagged a wonderful spot with couches, chairs etc. Cocktails were excellent and we ordered their flatbreads which were terrific (esp. the mushroom and truffle). This is not my usual neighborhood so won't become a regular spot but I will def keep in mind when on the West Side. Note: they do ask to see

My friend had been braking about how great this place was for many years. She went to this rooftop bar 5 years ago and she told me I should come to the bar with her someday but I think all things changed around. Before I went to the bar I came across one of my yelp friend's review and he said this place is becoming too much touristy but still has a nice view. Then I decided to try at least maybe a nice view will help me look over some boring stuff but it wasn't help a lot, lol. The bartender on Wednesday night were sleepy and not cheerful at all and looked like we had to begged to order drinks. Yes, it's not the place to go see and have fun with people anymore.
