I ordered the Smoked Turkey sandwich. I actually was expecting a simple sandwich, but wow - it was so flavorful, surprisingly juicy, and savory. The sandwich includes smoked turkey, spinach, pickled red onion, smoked cheddar and sweet chili mayo, all on Sourdough. The onions added this great crunchiness, the sweet chili mayo perfectly added a touch of sweetness, and the smoke cheddar tied everything together. Pair it with rosemary fries. They came out crispy and piping hot.

Rosso is a wine bar located in the space of what used to be the city's lone Argentine pizzeria, and…read morefrom what I can tell by the menu, is still under the same ownership. Of course I had to order a fernet and coke as a result. We started with the Spanish tortilla, which was excellent - a typical mild, well-textured preparation with potatoes served with a simple Mayo-ketchup. Our table ordered empanadas - naturally the baked variety typical of Buenos Aires (which immediately transition to fried when you cross the line into the city's gritty suburbs like La Salada). The tomato croquettes were also delicious, as was the decadent oily focaccia. The owners here are eminently warm and hospitable, and I'm glad they've found a new purpose for their old space.

They have a very limited selection of wines, their wine glasses are not good, and they poured the whole glass without letting us taste first. We only went for wine and not food so I can't speak to the food, but I recommend they re-label themselves as a restaurant rather than a wine bar! All in all, it was fine.

I booked this reservation because it seemed like a fun, exciting place to eat. Our reservation was…read moreat 8PM on a Thursday but we were the only party there for a while. I guess you could say we were disappointed by the atmosphere. As for the food, the dishes were delicious. Chicken was tender and the pork chop was cooked perfectly. I didn't like that the ceviche had grape fruit slices in it. Octopus was a small portion. My party was there to celebrate an engagement so that waiter offered us shots, which were accompanied by a dessert. The mixed shots were free but they charged us for the dessert. You should not charge patrons something that they don't ask for if you are doing a nice gesture. There is a lounge downstairs that I didn't check out but the waiter said they charge over $100 per male to enter. Overall, this place was nothing special.

It tasted like regular boiled pasta with tomato sauce and lobster on top. Drinks are very pricey. $21 for their usual cocktails and $12 for their mocktails. The ambiance and decor of the place is very aesthetic. Very Instagram worthy. The bathroom is very trippy (you can see through the doors). It's also in a very inconvenient area near the kitchen. They also have a downstairs bar area with a DJ so if you're done with dinner and want to go dancing, check out downstairs. The music wasn't my cup of tea (a lot of house and white people music) but if you're into that, definitely check it out. Service was okay. One of the male waiters had a stank face the whole time. Crack a smile, brother. Our waitresses, however, were so friendly and polite. One star off due to the priciness of the place. The food just did not match the $400+ bill we got but it's cute for a date night spot if you're in the mood to splurge.

Came here recently for the Paradiso pop-up; it's really cool how they are able to bring in top bars…read morefrom around the world here. Unfortunately the seats they put us at were not very comfortable since 4 of us were up high on a booth and the other 2 were down low on chairs, which made it a bit uncomfortable and awkward to talk. Also for the pop-up they sadly didn't have any non-alcoholic options so our designated driver had to settle for a NA beer and just some bar snacks and a few small sips to taste some drinks. The drinks themselves were good, but not quite as amazing as I had hoped. Also, the first half of our time there was either no music or quiet music, but then they brought in a DJ who was way too loud that it made it impossible to hear each other and enjoy the experience.

I came here for the Handshake pop up. The reservations for the pop up were hard to get. When they…read morewent live, none were available. I emailed them to put my name on a waitlist to be notified should anything open up, but I never received an email. The week of the event, I happened to be looking on Resy when I saw a bunch of reservations were open on the last night. However, it was only for 2 people and above. Then every reservation disappeared after a few hours. I emailed them again asking if they could squeeze in one person at night on the last day. They said they could and booked me in for 9pm at the bar. I also noticed a bunch of reservations had appeared on Resy again so not sure what was going on with that. When I arrived, I was surprised to see several empty tables considering the event was "sold out", in their words. I sat at the bar, and had the cheese plate and Match Made in Heaven drink. The cheese plate had great cheese but was lacking in accoutrements - almonds and breadsticks were provided but there was no spread given or even honey, which is typically a must in a cheese plate. The Match Made in Heaven drink was a rum forward drink served with a piece of chocolate candy. It was a good drink but nothing out of this world. Jazz music had been playing when I arrived but then ended around 9:15 and they then started blasting regular music in the bar, which was too loud. The service at the bar was not very attentive and I had to flag down a server multiple times for water and also to inquire about the check. I noticed the server was more attentive with the larger parties. The Handshake team seemed nice though they did not serve and just prepared the drinks. Pricing was standard for a NY bar. The bar is located in the lobby of the NH Hotel and the entrance is accessible. I did not use the restroom so I can't comment on them. Overall, I was pretty underwhelmed with the experience at MAD Bar for the pop up. I wonder if visiting the real Handshake bar would be a better experience.

Our server came over and told us what was available for the morning. No menu was given to us. We decided upon the orange juice, tea and two blueberry cakes. The juice, large tea and blueberry cakes came out. The juice appeared to be a slightly different color. It was actually an orange juice blended with carrot juice. The juice was actually very good. The blueberry cakes we're not even good at all :( At $10.50, a slice of cake should amazing. Anyway, the bill came out and it was about $40 and some change. To me, the bill was "totally outrageous" for what we received (even if the cake was good). The highlights were the juice, comfortable seating and decent service. I would not return here.

We were supposed to go to a 4th of July POOL PARTY here (which we were looking forward to for 2 months, bought new swimsuits, packed my bags, prepped my body bikini ready) in New York and the fken thing was cancelled when we arrived there, they TRICKED US!!! (NY likes to scam you, trust me). THEY SAID THERE'S NO POOL PARTY BECAUSE THERE'S A "LEAK" (hick, hick) and they DIDN'T EVEN REFUND ANY OF US!! Other places, they will refund you straightaway, right? We couldn't even look at the pool, forced us to hang out at the bar area and order drinks for what?? To support their "pool party" that doesn't exist?? We all looked bummed out, rage, rage against the dying of the light!, disappointed, It was like "fireworks" raging in us because they just took our money just like that, scammed us, and took away my pleasure from enjoying my last 4th of July. Basically, they are begging for your peanuts, pennies and sweet charities for free, rob it, to run a bar that's not making money in the daytime since the party was supposed to happen from 2pm to 12am. Nobody's gonna wait around for hours for the leak to go away when you're burning in frustration. What a ruse! And to be honest, this rooftop bar has nothing to shout about at all, just a normal regular rooftop bar with expensive menu. Just because it's above the Hilton it doesn't mean anything. Go to a more special place like Bar Lola or something. It's basic.
