I like this place since I enjoy dining or drinking with a view. Never been in a higher level seeing Time Square till now. I heard of this restaurant via my social media and glad that we swing by. The visit is worth it. The view access is the plus of dining in here. It's located in the lobby of Msocial Hotel. A reservations is needed for the indoor restaurant but not on outdoor, service is on a first come first serve basis for its terrace. We stayed indoor during dining but was allowed to go out and feel the view. On this cold weather, there is no big competition to get a glimpse of Time Square from its terrace side. It would be a good spot to hang out during summer nights. Food is alright. Not bad at all. Mostly on its menu is American style food, more of bar food or appetizers pick. I heard how great it's cocktail drinks. We came in during brunch time so will try on our comeback which definitely we will. It's a great suggested spot to hang out with family or friends.
I made it safely to M Social and Beast & Butterflies on December 31, 2025. Beast & Butterflies is one of the venues charging a hefty fee offering a direct ball drop view and a big NYE party with food, open bar, music, merriment, and shelter from the crazy Times Square Crowds and freezing cold. Since it was a bucket list item of mine to ring in the New Year in Times Square and witness the ball drop in person (and also ring in my birthday!), I decided it was worth it. Midtown Manhattan is a madhouse on New Year's Eve, with police barricades everywhere. I had to gain access by showing my event ticket, and even the security sometimes had confusion on where to direct people. Once I made it here, at first I was kind of overwhelmed with ALL THE PEOPLE. But as I ate, explored the space, checked out the rooftop, and danced on the dance floor, I had fun. Wifi here is non-existent if you're not a hotel guest, which I think is silly considering that attendees of the party should have wifi access. There was soooo much food. My favorites were the shrimp, lobster claws, and oysters. There was an aerialist hanging from a chandelier who filled champagne flutes for partygoers. When I was dancing on the dance floor, the DJ saw my sash and gave me a shoutout and called out, "Cheers to the birthday girl!" I went out onto the terrace overlooking Times Square at 10:30pm, so that I could get a front-row view to the ball drop. Countdown started in the last minute til midnight! It was surreal AF to be sitting in the front, experiencing and seeing this, and actually seeing the ball drop in Times Square in person instead of on TV. It was cool to get a bird's eye view of the crowds leading up to Times Square, and the crowd is CRAZY. Fireworks went off, everyone shouted "Happy New Year!!!!" and I got several "Happy birthday!" wishes. Missed the desserts because I was hanging out outside. I wish the staff had the foresight to extend dessert offerings past midnight, especially since the party went on past midnight. While waiting for the crowds to die down before I head to the subway, I danced as the party went on. A few days later, I came here with a couple of friends around 5:30pm. It was weird that there were KIDS sitting at the bar--I thought bars had rules against that? We also went out to the terrace to enjoy the city views, only for security and staff to get mad at us (and a large group of guests) and bark at us that the terrace was closed. Wait, what? Isn't that one of the draws of Beast & Butterflies? The view of Times Square? Why would you close it off. Anyway, I had a great New Year's Eve ringing in my birthday. Not such a great follow-up visit a few days later.
The service was really very attentive and the drinks were good and had some fun creative names. They made a really good classic NY Sour. We loved the view and the setting but the food was just ok. I'm not sure we'd return but the view of Times Square was great. Wish it had been warmer to eat outside. Those seats were prime!
A friend of mine from out of town was visiting and we wanted to meet for a drink before an event she had at 6:00 pm so since this place was close, we decided to come here. You get here right from the lobby and at first it was kind of hard to see if they were open because there were four people behind the bar and some people sitting there, but they would not look at us. I was like "do they think they'll turn to stone if they catch a glimpse of me"? After walking around three sides of the bar I was able to ask one of the employees if they were open and she said yes, but we couldn't sit inside before 5:00. It was a nice day so we sat outside, which has great views looking down towards Times Square. Our server outside was nice but had to let us know that the kitchen didn't open until 5:00 so we couldn't immediately order anything to eat but it was a little after 4:30 so we just had our cocktails. A few minutes before 5 he came back and took our food order so it all worked out. My old fashioned was great and I liked the chorizo and seafood tapas thing I had. Additionally, the guy we had working with us for food and drinks was really awesome. His inside co-workers who seemed to want to avoid customers haven't rubbed off on him yet, so I say keep up the good work, dude! If you can snag a table outside (and find someone who actually wants a customer) this is a decent option in midtown.
The view is fantastic up here at the Beast and Butterflies spot located in Times Square and inside the M Social hotel. This place has an indoor and outdoor seating area with plenty of tables for you and your friends to chill and hang out. We randomly had a few friends from LA coming in at the same time, so our meet-up spot was here. None of us has been here, and even my friend who lives in New York hasn't either. The drinks here are strong and I have to say after a couple of drinks and shots we were lit. Also enjoyed the view and company! So if you are ever in town hit this spot up.
Yes, this spot was definitely a good vibe. The music is mellow not over powering, you could actually enjoy a good convo. Food was great, service was outstanding and the ambience is amazing. Great little spot if you are looking for a rooftop bar with chill vibes and with an amazing view of Time Square. We had a Caesar salad, Beast Burger Beef Sliders topped with Cheddar Cheese, Spicy Pickles and Chipotle Aioli, truffle fries, and two drink drinks. A Strawberry Fields: Maker's Mark Bourbon, Santoni Rhubarb Liqueur, Strawberry, Lemon, & a Passionfruit Margarita: Patron Blanco Tequila, Chinola, Cointreau, Lime, Simple Syrup Overall it was a great experience no reservations needed unless you want to sit inside, but the outside is first come first serve. Luckily, we waited a little bit for some people in the corner table to leave and we ended up with an amazing spot. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a place to just relax and take in a nice view after a long day of walking & sightseeing in the city.
We booked a reservation for the evening to see the sunset around time square. Unfortunately, it was cloudy and gloomy. It was still a nice view. It's our first time coming here, at this restaurant. It wasn't busy for 6:30pm, it's very open and a lot of sitting and places to hang out. Very cute or chic I should say. Loved it! We got out table by the window with the view of time square. There is a balcony all around, for you to eat and drink out side as well. Our server was very nice. Helped us with options. My husband got the burger and fries (after all the other places we were at, that was fancy he was ready for real food) he loved the burger and he is picky with burgers. I tried it and you could taste all the seasoning and cheese and everything. It was tasty! I got the charcuterie board because I wasn't that hungry and, I actually loved all the cheese. I usually just love pepper jack and cheddar but everything tasted delicious. The drink I got was called "who you gunna call" it tasted amazing. Definitely could taste the rum and the pineapple and lime and the raspberry vodka. It was a refreshing taste. I did get the passion fruit margarita, not pictured and that was really good as well. After dinner we went out to drink and relax to take in the moment, because I love NYC. One of my favorite places. The next day we came around 2-3pm to get a drink and it wasn't busy at all. Pretty sure not many know about this location and place. Which is great for us! It is a hotel as well, so it's something I'd look into if I was you! Our next visit, because there will be many. I'll make sure to come here to relax and eat as well.
New management-Akash knows how to approach clients and how to make one feel welcome and appreciated! Atmosphere is amazing! Bartenders are over.the.top awesome! Get a straight up marg from Victor-Heather or Diego! They are da bomb!
beautiful views and nice ambience if one were to decide to stay inside! The drinks were a bit pricey but undeniably delicious. Great location too so if you're into Japanese, visit Sake Bar Hagi!
View was great and was able to get rooftop seating on the weekend. Service was okay as it took a while to order & to pay the bill. Drinks were hella strong but not that tasty. In my opinion you're pretty much paying for the view... it's a cool spot if you wanna check out if you're in the area and looking for a place to chill.
Came here for quick nibbles before seeing a show. Made reservations a head of time but once we arrived it looked like it was unnecessary as there were ample of tables available and a few patrons dining so walking in would've suffice. We placed our food and drink orders with our server. Considering there wasn't many people dining it took a bit for our starters to arrive...and before our drinks. Was hoping our drinks came prior but didn't want to make a stink out of it since we we're enjoying our time and the views. Maybe we'll come again hoping it was a slight mishap of service. Son really enjoyed the Mac and cheese and he's willing to return for that.
Excellent atmosphere, excellent food and excellent drinks. We had the sticky Chinese ribs, some beef, sliders, and chips and salsa and guacamole. I also had the drink we're gonna call which was really good as well . I would definitely recommend this little gem .
Nice place for a family pre-show bite. Bar, drinks, edible shareable apps. Nice view a few floors up looking down broadway.

We heard Beast & Butterflies had one of the best rooftop views of Times Square, so we stopped by to check it out. We were there right after the winter storm and during the off-season, which ended up working in our favor. While the outdoor patio was closed due to snow, the indoor window space was private and intimate with only one stone couple there as we enjoyed overlooking Times Square. To match the incredible view, we ordered two of the best cocktails we had during our whole trip. Both were strong, balanced, and full of flavor. We went with the Passionfruit Margarita and the Strawberry Fields, and both were excellent. If you're looking for a rooftop spot to take in the Times Square energy with great drinks and a more relaxed atmosphere, this is definitely worth a visit. Can't speak for the food menu at this time. read more

Elizabeth, reading about your experience at Beast & Butterflies Bar…
Sneaky sneaky Beast and Butterflies. This is PSA / reminder to always check your check everyone! I have three separate checks for the night but one of them is not like the others in terms of tipping. 2 bills did not include a tip, but one of them did! The service was decent but not to the tune of what amounted to a 35%+ tip. Unfortunately I didn't realize this until later that they added the tip and added a person to my group (we were 5 but the receipt says 6 - maybe triggering the auto tip). If they're not trying to hustle for extra tip, maybe they could change the line to "additional tip." I know it's my fault, but other places at least want to make sure you know it's additional. The redeeming factor is the view and the rooftop space - it's a free little mix level Birdseye of broadway. They have bites and cocktails and pretty much just come as you are and hang out type of vibe. read more

Nestled in the lobby/rooftop area of M Social, Beast & Butterflies is more than your typical hotel bar. Boasting a true craft cocktail experience--with interesting spirits, mixers, & syrups--within an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere with lovely modern touches & enticing city views, Beast & Butterflies pretty much covers all the bases for one-stop cocktail shopping before heading into the city or back to your room. Pro Tip: The standard beverage offerings are great, but the seasonal offerings are even greater. Check out the Figgy Stardust--a lusciously autumnal & fig-forward riff on an old fashioned created by house bartender Chris! Cheers! read more

A friend of mine was staying at the M Social hotel towards the end of last month so we decided to visit the bar/restaurant/lounge on one of the lower floors. We sat at the bar and the bartenders came to us right away and were very attentive the whole time we were there. I was participating in Dry January so I had a hot tea but I stole a sip of my friends cocktail and it was quite good! Would be nice if there were a few mocktails advertised on the menu, I assume I could have asked the bartenders for an alcohol free drink but I was ok with my tea. The bar is chic and has a gorgeous view of the Times Square area. It's definitely worth checking out the restaurant and terrace if that's something that would interest you. There seemed to be a lot of groups seated celebrating special occasions. read more

Beautiful rooftop bar let me start off by saying. Great views of Time Square from here. We sat outside then I went inside to the bar for a drink. I ordered 1 beer and a Manhattan for my wife. The bartender was kinda rude and seemed to be in a rush. The beer was put in a plastic cup not glass and the Manhattan also because he poured to much into a small glass. Then I had to pour the drink into a cup outside . I get my bill and it was 35 dollars for two drinks!! I did not expect gratuity to be added by the bartender for 2 drinks but it was and I didn't see that so I added more tip. When I saw my receipt later I was pissed. Gratuity is optional for good service. Pissed me off he added it and 20 percent I will say he added. Guy next to me ordering drinks had the same issue and complained about it. Im not one to make a scene. I just finished my drink and left. Would probably have ordered more drinks here if not for that but live and learn. Would not come back here if in NYC again. read more

This was one of the bars my wife and I tried out while visiting New York City. Awesome views and tasty drinks! What more could you ask for?! :) I ordered the Theater District Manhattan. Truly enjoyable classic cocktail, although it could have been stiffer. My wife ordered the Uptown Girl. She loved it so much that she is going to attempt to replicate it with her own variation! We also ordered a side of fries to snack on - it came with ketchup and mayonnaise. Mayonnaise with french fries is not a common combination in the South, however, I tried it and it wasn't bad at all! But I still prefer ketchup. Haha Stop by this place and check it out...even if just for some drinks! read more

Excellent, attentive service. Fantastic view overlooking Times Square. We went on a Friday night, pre-Broadway show. Had a reservation and were seated right away at a table with a gorgeous view. There were lots of people outside too. Food was okay, nothing special. Drinks were good. Had the Who-you-gonna-call, which was not strong enough but ok. Loved the vibe of there place- music, view, friendly wait staff. Highly recommend. read more

Great view of Times Square from the terrace. Definitely recommend eating on the terrace. The food was ok but could be better at those prices. The salmon (dinner) was way too salty. A small bottle of water was $9. Also tried the $32 breakfast buffet. Not a lot of options for non-pork meat other than sliced Turkey. Not much variety in food or drinks. Service was fine. read more
