Super cute vibe whether it's for gno or date night!!! You have to make a reservation in advance because it is super busy. I had a reservation for the outdoor terrace but it was super windy bc it was going to thunderstorm soon so luckily I moved inside and was able to find a seat at the bar The electric lemon cheeseburger was SO GOOD!! It was perfectly medium and the addition of the horseradish aioli added the perfect kick. The fries were skinny and extra crispy, just the way I prefer my fries. I would come back in a heartbeat for this!!!!! The octopus was also really good but I wish it had a little more char to it. I liked that it was paired with hummus and Aleppo. The Aleppo oil had a super mild spice level I was mega disappointed with the roasted Japanese eggplant and I would not consider ordering this dish, if you are considering it. It lacks flavor. It tasted more steamed than roasted and the addition of the honey was kind of odd. The garlic yogurt didn't have much garlic flavor The cocktails were super yummy! Especially the espresso martini, order it with reposado!!!!
On an unseasonably warm spring day I was looking for a few things in this area of the city, and Electric Lemon checked off all of the boxes: + Outdoor rooftop + Water views + Spacious and not crowded or too much of a scene but also a good vibe + Walkable to MSG This was a great pick for all of the above and I'm so happy that I came! It's a vibey spot in Manhattan so drinks are very steep, as expected. A glass of wine or a draft beer will run you around $20. But, the views are beautiful and it's a really nice spot to post up when the weather is right.
The best place to celebrate New Year's Eve. From the minute we walked in, my friend and I were greeted to really friendly and attentive staff that immediately got our coats checked and settled to our table. Our waiter gave great recommendations for drinks so I got the big apple martini and in the cloud while my friend ordered an electric lemon martini and high line rouge. We both agreed the high line was the best out of the 4 for flavor alone. The sirloin was cooked perfectly with a lot of flavor and the potatoes went nicely with it. The potato flatbread and lemon spaghetti were alright, but didn't pack as much flavor as the tofu starter. Best dish we both loved was actually the carrots side because we couldn't get enough of the sauce. Ambiance was great with a little more high end and the views were everything. For sure coming back here!
Food was better than expected, but expectation was low after reading the reviews. Objectively speaking though, dinner was pretty good. The deviled crab was my favorite - super fresh and had great texture. The octopus was also good - the aleppo oil/sauce was an interesting touch. The sirloin was cooked perfectly, though a tad fat for my taste. The mushroom pasta was very disappointing... the ingredients just didn't come together. Could've been something creamy and saucy, but this wasn't it. The In the Cloud cocktail was so pretty and interesting, not to mention delicious - highly recommend! We sat outside in a rare warm evening, and the views and ambiance were great.
Came back for lunch a few times. The little gem salad with salmon is pretty good - I was happy the salmon was not overdone, but note on weekends, they cannot add a protein to your salad for some reason. The fries are also super good. Service continues to be atrocious - our water glasses were empty all day and we could never flag down a waiter.
What a wonderful experience. This has to be one of the best views in nyc. One of the best restaurants with a view and intricate architecture that features photo ops at every turn...making it a standout spot for both dining and taking in the scenery. Also perfect for those Instagram-worthy shots. It's definitely an influencer haven, but also a place where you can casually sip on a drink and soak in the vibes without any pressure. The dishes are on the pricier side but truly elegant in flavor and presentation. While I wouldn't necessarily return just for the food, I'd definitely come back for the drinks and the overall atmosphere. The first time I came here was for a Valentine's Day special 5 dining course in which I tried oysters for the first time, that had caviar on it. Very fancy indeed for my first time haha. But I did determine oysters still aren't my thing. Maybe only if I could have it as a delicacy like that again. Be mindful that securing a reservation can be tricky, especially depending on the time and day, but it's totally worth it for the elegant, bold environment that keeps you lingering a little longer than planned.
It's my go-to for rooftop season, great drinks, and beautiful views. The cocktail list is varied with boozy, sweet, and perfectly balanced options. Golden Hour is my favorite. Don't let the beets scare you, as the flavors come together in this smoky, slightly sweet way that just works. They have plenty of food options and, more importantly for me, plenty of vegetarian options. I have had the lemon spaghetti and the tofu, and I never leave without ordering the polenta fries. The lemon spaghetti is a good portion, cooked nicely in a light, creamy lemon sauce. The tofu is good when you mix all the sauces together, as the tofu itself is not seasoned but really comes together with the sauce and vegetables. The polenta fries are soft on the inside but lightly toasted on the outside, with great flavors and textures. Similar to the drinks, they are all solid options, but admittedly I come here mostly for the vibes. The service is consistently good as well. I need to make time to dine in.
Ambiance and service was phenomenal. The view was gorgeous and let's not forget the chicken decore. We got mimosas, expresso martini, breakfast sammies, burger and crab cakes. The only thing i cared for was the amazing burger that was seasoned well and their crispy double coated fries. It was simply dressed but delicious.
Brunch Option! Electric lemon was incredibly disappointing. Venue looks great, and decor is upscale dining. Known more for their Garden and dinner dining. They have a very small bar with a fireplace on the right side. First offense is the tea, it was extremely watered down and I suspected the teabag might have been reused because the pot wasn't that big. You can even tell from the picture it was watered down. Also it had a funky taste which could be the water they used. AVOID, $7 could be spent on anything else. Another issue is when I ordered the eggs benedict and ordered the smashed and fried fingerling potatoes. I don't have a picture of the side BUT the waiter did not bother to tell us the fingerlings were already included in the eggs benedict! We told them it was our first time too. You also get the same sauce that was incredibly bland. Just no flavor to the potatoes that felt like it was reheated. Eggs benedict was good but the wait staff was speed walking. Rushed to our table and the presentation of the eggs benedict was ruined. Would be fine if it was a diner but this isn't. Presentation of the food and the experience of a quality establishment were NOT here. The ONLY item worth getting was the pretzel bagel bomb, that was where I saw Electric Lemon shine. It was new, packed with flavor, and incredibly delicious. If you are here to try, get that at least. The benedict flavor was good but nothing special. Sandwich was really nothing special either. It was okay and I feel like you can get better. Issue is that you have to rate this place on a higher scale for what they want to offer / present. If it was a diner no problem, but it isn't. Will be going back to try the dinner, but personally was not really worth the hype. Let's see how dinner does.

Will definitely be back! Came here for breakfast and dinner. These matcha lattes hit the spot, perfect temperature! The honey and cinnamon took it up a notch, I would recommend asking your waiter for a side to mix in the avocado toast was mouth watering, two poached eggs and crunchy seeds. 10/10 as well as the beauty bowl!! Dinner was amazing, beef tartare was delicious and flavorful. The roasted Japanese eggplant was my favorite, would eat that everyday! The garlic yogurt on top w. sumac and mint was a flavor blast in my opinion. The oysters were tasty! Slurped those right up loved the duck entree, very flavorful! Ending with dessert was just wow! Another flavor blast!! Coffee ice cream, chocolate cake!! Overall the service was great all around. The mornings at breakfast and dinner, no complaints. Ambiance was great, definitely check out the patio area grab a drink before dinner checkout the sunset. Or just come for drinks, either way you'll have a great time. read more
Listen the fries at this restaurant had me giving them an extra star, it was so good !!! It isn't on their menu so make sure to ask for it. The pasta was also very delicious. This restaurant gave me boujee vibes. It is definitely a nice date spot. The citrus dessert was also delicious. Service was fast, ambiance was nice as well. read more
This place has pretty fancy food and it's quite expensive. That being said, the restaurant itself is beautiful, has amazing views and the staff were very kind. We got our food very quickly as well even though it was quite busy. The chicken was very juicy and well seasoned but all you get is the chicken and a very small serving of vegetables. The food is seafood heavy so might be a good choice for those who prefer those options. read more
Beautiful brunch spot with amazing views. Loved the ambience and decor of Electric Lemon. Such tasteful decor of the restaurant. In love with this place. Went here for brunch and thoroughly enjoyed. Wanted to sit outdoors on the rooftop but it was raining so we sat indoors and loved it all the same. The food and service was outstanding. We had the Beauty Bowl, Avocado Toast, Flax Seed Pancake, Latte , and fresh orange juice. The beauty bowl was out of this world, it's beet yogurt with honeycrisp apple, grapes, pistachio, bee pollen. It was so refreshing and colorful. The pancake and avocado toast were equally amazing. The pancake was so fluffy and moist. The spices and crunchy seeds on the avocado toast were just perfect. Latte was spot on . Strongly recommend this place for incredible food, service, presentation, and views. read more

As a member of Equinox in California, had to stop by to check out the Hotel and grab a drink before I went up to the Edge. Electric Lemon is the name of the Bar/Restaurant that is connected to the Equinox Hotel and one floor below the Hotel Lobby. The ambiance was very nice and luxurious as one would expect. I ordered the Whiskey Blossom and felt at home (as an equinox member) lounging there for a bit. There are some nice views of the Vessel from above and just feels really classy overall. I had an small incident with an interesting character there and the Manager was quick to respond so thanks for that!! read more

Dear Joey, we are glad we got to host you during your trip to New…
We came for girls brunch at electric lemon on the weekend, we had a reservation to sit outside for four people. Food is as photographed below. Pastry basket was great - all of the pastries were warm. We got coffees - also were good. Food was quite good and well priced. The vibes in the morning were what we were looking for - more quiet and enjoyable, I will note that as we went to leave, they started bumping up the music with a dj (maybe at like 1 pm) so it definitely becomes a party rooftop. Definitely sit outside. 1 star off because honestly, the rooftop was great but there weren't "views" per se, you were just high up and surrounded by the tall Hudson yards buildings. read more
Came here for a happy hour with friends visiting from overseas. It is on the 24th floor of the Equinox hotel at the Hudson Yards. We made a reservation for the outdoor seating at the rooftop. The day we went was a bit windy, so please bring your jacket just in case. The outdoor terrace was pretty nice, the view was alright, it was surrounded by the concrete jungle , but you can see the Hudson River from one side. The cocktail menu doesn't have a lot of options, but the quality was OK. The waiter was petty attentive when I got seated.c but since we did not stay for long, not so much to comment on the service. read more

The food and ambiance here is actually pretty good. The service, not so much. Came here July 4th for our anniversary dinner and was not pleased with our service provided by Sharon. She never greeted/introduce herself. I was only able to get her name from our check. She was very un-attentive and didn't make us feel welcomed. We ordered drinks and Sharon never came around and asked us if we wanted another round. If I recall correctly, I don't even think she asked us how are meal was. When it was time to get the check, she just dropped off the check to us and walked off without saying thank-you or if there was anything else she could've gotten us. I was visiting town from Houston and we know about a thing or 2 when it comes to customer service and this was not it. We did not ask for a lot... the bare minimum should've been given and it wasn't. read more

Came here for dinner with my friend and had a great time here! The rooftop lounge area is great! We ordered the steak tar tar which was delicious. The fancy salad which was good, the chicken and steak dish which was both delicious and we ordered the fries which was delicious. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and so flavorful! The steak was perfectly cooked and service was slow but still okay. Would love to come back again! read more

Make a reservation in advance for dinner or else you'll have to sit at the bar. The bar seating area is really close to the ground. So if you are tall or you don't like feet next to your food sit at the bar. The bar experience is 5 star. The bar tenders are friendly and the drinks are amazing. I came on a rainy day so the rooftop was closed but the view was still cool. The food is 2 stars at best and it took so long to come. The beef tartare was salty. The oysters were fresh. The burger was just okay and not worth $20 at all. They don't serve French fries in the restaurant. Instead they have polenta fries that are hard on the outside and uncooked on the inside. read more

First: check your suggested gratuity!!! Mine says 20% is $12 (at the bottom) but 20% of my bill was actually $7! I'm not sure if the restaurant has done this on purpose or not but it's actually crazy. The food was really good. I would come back for the food. The chocolate dessert tastes like a better ferror rocher Service was pretty good otherwise as well. Ambiance - its a beautiful space! The outdoor space has not opened yet but I want to revisit to see what it looks like. read more
Electric Lemon was a nice place for us to have an enjoyable Saturday Evening dining experience. After visiting The Shed to attend the Open Call Art Exhibition + Lad'Sasha Jones Art Presentation/Workshop and then walking a bit through The Shops at Hudson Yards, we were hungry and thought it would be cool to eat somewhere surrounded by beautiful views. Well, Electric Lemon gave us all of that and more.... Electric Lemon is w/ in the Equinox Hotel at Hudson Yards in NYC. It is located on the 24th Floor of the hotel and the ride in the elevator was smooth and steady. We walked up to the front desk. The kind individual behind the desk informed us that we did not need a reservation and were seated in the indoor lounge area near the bar and cute fireplace. There is both indoor and terrace outdoor dining. Sleek, sophisticated decor is detailed everywhere from their gorgeous seating/ta8e arrangements to their lighting arrangements, etc. We both ordered the Electric Lemon Cheeseburger which was savory + flavorful. Our Server was fantastic and took the time to explain information. The Cheeseburger came w/ these thick "french fried" looking baked textured potatoes which were good. My mocktail was something created that was not on the menu and it was deliciiously sweet. I was satisfied w/ my food and look forward to returning to try other dishes, especially during Brunch. Going outside to see the Terrace area is a special treat. One can make a reservation to enjoy terrace outdoor dining which is beautiful on a lovely weathered day/evening. Such breathtaking views overlooking the Manhattan area! Elegant Decor in the form of patio furniture and dining seat/table arrangements all throughout the terrace area. Electric Lemon has a website- electriclemonnyc.com and there is information on making reservations, abiliyy to view their Brunch, Dinner, Beverage, Wine + Spirits menus, etc. One can purchase giftcards. Sunday- Thursday Dinner is from 5pm - 10pm + is on Friday/Saturday from 5pm-11pm. Brunch Service is Saturday + Sunday 11am -3pm. Electric Lemon also has a Private Dining Room for anyone that wants to reserve it for Group Dining up to 72 People - contact via electriclemon.events@starr-restaurants.com. Electric Lemon also has a Facebook, Instagram + Twitter Page. read more

Beautifully decorated restaurant with an amazing outdoor view but the service and food was lacking. I came for my birthday but I think it's overall pointless to specify what occasion you're coming in for on your reservation unless you want the hostess to wish you a happy birthday when you check-in. I ordered the contramar taco plate; it wasn't terrible but the price tag wasn't worth two filets that taste nearly identical. The side garnishes didn't add much flavor and the salsa was runny (and tasteless?) Overall I would NOT come back for the dining experience but maybe for the ambiance of the outdoor bar area and it's spectacular view. read more

It's not just about what you eat here--it's the whole atmosphere that makes it great. The scenery is stunning, especially when the city lights start to come on. If you're looking for a rooftop restaurant with a stunning view in NYC, Electric Lemon is the place to check out. read more

Maitre'd need to treat all patrons equally. I arrived at the time of my reservation - 5:45pm which was early for dinner. I told the maitre d that my friend and her daughter were parking. I was asked to wait at the bar but there was no empty seats so I just waited standing while there were numerous empty tables available. I then noticed a few tables occupied by guests who were by themselves. It was odd because only 15 minutes later they were joined by their friends. I think it is very rude to discriminate. The food is presented nicely and fresh but you can definitely they use the same garnish. Perhaps they need to improve their menu? read more

I was pretty excited when I heard about this spot because I had been wanting to visit the Equinox hotel in general. Of course, it is an iconic nyc brand so the building itself is stunning. Once you get to the rooftop, the restaurant itself is also beautiful. As expected, there's a million people trying to get the perfect Instagram shot. Since we were seated outside next to the outdoor pool and installation, we saw many photo shoots. Maybe I'm naive but I expected more from the food. I've seen many great restaurants in Manhattan and all the upscale traditional ones have the same food. A good burger, a good chicken dish, a staple salmon dish and some sides. I was hoping there'd be something more memorable to the menu which is why I docked two stars. The food itself was decent and the drinks were good too, but again standard I'd say for any good American restaurant in the area. read more
Got the outdoor seating and it was soooo nice! We came around 5:30 pm and was able to see the sun slowly go down. The vibe was super nice and the view was impeccable. We got the arctic melon cocktail, the flatbread, and the chicken liver appetizer. All 3 items were amazing and would highly recommend! Even though it was outdoors, they turned on the fire pit to make sure that no one is cold! read more

Service: 9/10 Service was attentive and friendly. We were seated on time for our dinner reservation. Water constantly filled and plates removed promptly. Waitstaff recommended the Branzino which I enjoyed. Drinks: 8/10 My date had the golden hour and I found myself going back to steal a few sips as I decided not to order a drink of my own. Tasty and well balanced but not life changing for the price. Food: 8/10 We had the Octopus appetizer which was cooked perfectly. Charred on the outside and perfectly tender on the inside. I think it was a little too much acid for my taste but the cook was perfection and I would eat it again for that reason. The chickpea purée beneath it was pleasant as well. Branzino was crisp and flavorful. There were a few bones but it was worth it for the amount of fish I received there was a lemon sauce and small salad that came on top of it, they were ok but the fish was the star. My date had the burger which he enjoyed as well and the fries and pickles that came along with it were tasty. Ambiance: 10/10 We sat in the dining room since the terrace was closed due to inclement weather but we did end up going outside after our meal to take a look and it was a very beautiful rooftop with great views 8.5/10 - Would Return without a second thought read more

Dear Kayce, thank you very much for the detailed review. We love to…
Honestly, from food to drinks to atmosphere, I LOVED Electric Lemon. A friend and I went for a last minute meal and they were nice enough to accommodate a table for us (with a minimal wait) even though we didn't have a reservation (we came in about half an hour before their dinner service opened) We started with a couple drinks and some vibing on the outer patio (which is wonderful and the perfect spot for city view photos) For food, we ordered the burger, cauliflower flatbread, and lemon pasta (don't have a photo of the last one) as well as two deserts to try out. Food was good and nicely presented. A bit confused on a complaint pasta dish but it was an interesting taste. The burger was one of the best I've ever had (which, for me - a self-established burger enthusiast, is a high compliment.) The flatbread was awesome as well. The desserts were good, not great, but the presentation was nice. The staff, in its entirety, was welcoming and pleasant. They even brought over a bowl of water for my pup. Don't know if they're specifically pet friendly but they were very welcoming to my dog! The vibe was chic, stylish, and very "NY" in the best way. Will certainly be back! read more
Amazing ambience and beautiful hotel make up for lacking service and average food. I found Electric Lemon to be a beautiful and energetic restaurant, perfect for a date night out. I ordered the beef tartare, lemon spaghetti and halibut. The beef tartare was excellent, while the other two dishes were only ok but nothing really special. I almost gave this place a 3 just because of the service. My waiter essentially abandoned me and my date by the second half of our meal. I had to flag him down multiple times and at one point he asked us if we wanted to see the dessert menu before the entrees came out. Nevertheless, I found the overall experience just good enough to get to four stars. read more
Came here for a special dinner, the service by the hostess was great. We ordered the duck, and chicken which were both great. The beef tartare was average so wouldn't recommend. Would come back in the summer to eat outside on the roof patio as the restaurant is 24 stories high in the sky overlooking the vessel read more

We went here for my birthday dinner and it was a wonderful option. We had made reservation weeks in advance and told the restaurant that we were celebrating a birthday. When we arrived, we checked in with the hostess, and they sat us at a table near the windows overlooking the vessel. They also gave me a card from the restaurant, wishing me a happy birthday. The ambience of the restaurant is very modern. They have large windows, a really sleek bar and a second floor for additional dining space. When it came time to order, I went with the pasture raised chicken, which was a large portion of chicken with a small amount of vegetables underneath. I also went with their take of the house martini, which was very good! Overall, this is a wonderful restaurant for a very modern and sleek dining experience in Hudson yards. I'd recommend coming here to celebrate a special occasion or to have a really sexy atmosphere at the bar. read more
I've only been here for drinks but this spot is hidden inside the Equinox Hotel, situated on one of the top floors. There's a dining option as well as a drinking lounge area. I like that this spot takes reservations so I will usually make an advance reservation for drinks post work here. The drinks/cocktails here are a little bit sweet though for the several times I have ordered here so not exactly my favorite since I prefer my drink on the bitter side. It's a good venue generally for a spot to get drinks, the views are good but maybe stick with wine or just liquor rather than cocktails if you don't like sweet drinks. read more
Came for dinner with a few friends and had a nice time. Beautiful spot with lots of photogenic spots, though Electric Lemon's a bit too extra for me. We shared a bunch of apps. The Chilled Oysters were delicious and we also liked the Brussels Sprouts (then again, when do I not like Brussels Sprouts) and Roasted Japanese Eggplant. I then had the Dry Aged Duck, which was delicious! Duck was perfectly cooked. I probably could've done with a tad less sauce, but it was tasty and plentiful. Was too full to finish the whole thing! Also had the Bananas Foster Sundae for dessert. Asked for no whipped cream, but seemed like the whole dish was all whipped cream! The candied hazelnuts were nice, but couldn't find the banana bread at the bottom...and I checked under every portion of the extra whipped cream...let me know if you have better luck! read more
Electric Lemon is definitely a cute, picturesque summer rooftop. I came here for drinks with my roommate the other night. If you are coming, make sure to get reservations around sunset - best time to come and the sunset is beautiful. Ambience definitely a 5/5. Our server was wonderful, she was so nice and even let us walk around on the terrace to take pictures. In terms of food, we didn't get anything but nothing stood out to be good to us. Lettuce "gems" aka iceberg lettuce cubes, an app, are $20. They only have 4 cocktails options in general so I stuck to a gin & tonic which was priced as high as a cocktail lol. I definitely don't regret coming and I'm happy to check it out once however I wouldn't come back again. read more
I docked the one star simply for them rushing us . The views and vibes were fire and they do make custom mocktails. Fav dish: halibut but overall the entire vibe was very anti inflammatory and healthy delish- my person fav genre of food Dessert was yuzu sweet and tart meringue with candied orange read more
The atmosphere here is excellent, especially outdoors. The tables are well spaced out. I had the opportunity to try a few dishes. The veggie crudités were solid, and the fermented soy bean dip makes the dish. The potato flatbread was a bit dry. The polenta fries were excellent but romesco sauce could have been more flavorful. The dumplings (edamame If I remember correctly) which are no longer on the menu were great. The service wasn't quite up to par and there were several things that were a bit off. First, when we asked to sit in a particular area an hour or so before closing, the maitre'd shared that all the tables in that área were booked, but that was not the case as those tables were empty all night. Second, we were double charged on our bill (they ran twice the amount on our credit card and had to go back and fix it). This was very unusual. The service was very slow as well, often times our water glasses weren't filled and the drinks took a while despite the place being fairly empty. read more

This place is a joke. During the reservation process, if you don't read carefully, you won't understand that dinner starts at 5 PM. We arrived early and found out that you can't order food outside on the scenic balcony, only inside, and you can't sit at the restaurant tables, only at low tables in the corner of the room. The only options were a salad and a cheeseburger. I had the cheeseburger with a dry bun and felt like I was eating a reheated meal in a hotel lobby. This is what Equinox calls brunch. They place forks and knives on dirty tables and explain that these are their policies. Check out the photos from other customers. If this is how they maintain hygiene, then bon appétit!!! read more

Dear Peter, thank you very much for taking the time to share your…
Overall great ambiance but a little overpriced. The cocktails are not particularly impressive but I really like their rooftop/patio outdoor seating area, especially when the weather is nice. The staff are nice and friendly. I think this is the kind of place where I'd only go for special occasions. It's more for the vibe than for the drinks. If you're visiting NYC for the first time, I'd still suggest you make a stop here to grab a drink and enjoy the city view after touring around the Hudson Yards area. read more
The rooftop is open again! My boyfriend and I made a reservation out on the terrace and had a wonderful experience as always. Return to the beach and spicy sunset cocktails were amazing, and the cheeseburger is still one of my favorite dishes. Potato flatbread and grilled market vegetables were also decent. Finally, the winter citrus dessert was incredible. Can't wait to return! read more
This restaurant is pretty busy even now so you should make a reservation in advance. We wanted to go since we were visiting Hudson Yards so we walked in and were able to get seated in the bar area. The drinks were good (although pricey - $30 for an old fashioned). There were a couple of veggie options so I got the potato flatbread which was tasty. They check temperatures downstairs and at the hostess desk. Masks are worn. There is no bar seating - more like lounge and everyone is socially distanced. The stunning outdoor roof area is currently closed for the season. There's a gorgeous view of the vessel on your way out of the restroom. Please support your local businesses! read more
The Electric Lemon lived up to its hype for me for both the food and the views. I was a little annoyed that they replaced the Jaume Plensa white sculpture with something else but in all fairness it is not their fault lol. My friend and I went for brunch. I ordered the burger which was pretty good but nothing out of the ordinary. The polenta fries complemented it well though. All in all, I would definitely return after the sculpture rotates back to something else :). read more

Ask the Community - Electric Lemon
Are reservations necessary on a weekday lunch?
I wouldn't think so, I think the tough reservation is the rooftop in the summer.
Hello - What is the dress code for electric lemon? Seen a couple posts say "Business Casual" but also seen pictures of people in sneakers, are sneakers allowed?
I wore a long jersey maxi dress with sneakers and didn't feel out of place.
What are the age requirements?
Honestly, I have never seen a child in there. I am pretty sure this is an adult only establishment. From the gym to the hotel to the restaurant, I have never seen a child in…
Do they allow xtra people at your table on the terrace after making a reservation for a table of 5?
No, I don't believe so. If you're looking to be seated and served, you need to have the entire party there present and can't have extra people.
Is there a spending limit on terrace for table of 5?
When I went there (party of 2) nobody mentioned a spending limit for me. I specifically asked for a table on the terrace at the time I made a reservation.
Is the terrace opened yet?
No they are renovating and during the winter the winds are too strong at such a high floor
I want to reserve for indoor dining but can I still visit the outdoor terrace to look around?
Hi Jenny. Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, our terrace is completely closed. We are busy working on exciting renovations for next season! We hope this helps!
Do I need reservations if we are just going for drinks?
Hi Susan. Thanks for your interest in Electric Lemon. The bar itself is first come, first serve. However, bar seating is limited and it is seated service only at the bar so reservations are always strongly encouraged. If you are planning to visit…
Are dogs permitted on the terrace outside?
Only animals registered with hotel guests are allowed in the building and on the terrace.
How do we make a reservation for two for outdoor terrace dining? The only options I see in Resy are dining room and lounge? Does the latter mean indoor or outdoor lounge?
You have to be ready to book at 11am when the reservations open a month in advance, they're usually gone in the first 30 mins
What is the best place to sit when having dinner for two people?
Hi. On a nice sunny day/warm evening definitely request table outside on their terrace! It's beautiful!!!!!
Do you need a reservation for drinks?
Hi there! Yes, you can make a reservation here - https://resy.com/cities/ny/electric-lemon - we look forward to seeing you soon!
Hi, do you have outdoor seating?
Thank you for your inquiry. We plan to reopen the terrace later this month. Please look for availability on Resy.
Can you get food at the bar?
Yes the Bar is available for walk-ins and is full service.
Are reservations required for just drinks?
