    Heated Rivalry
    Aditya S.

    The Red Room Bar is an intimate and luxurious cocktail lounge in the Printemps department store next to Maison Passerelle. Housed in the private banking hall of the former Irving Trust Company, this Art Deco space features red ombré and gold mosaic walls, shelves filled with eclectic sculptures and art books, and a beautiful Baccarat crystal chandelier above the center of the bar. Their spirit forward cocktails include the hilariously named Heated Rivalry featuring hibiscus tea, cardamom, honey, and El Dorado rum. It was hot and steamy and therefore aptly named. The Lost Time is crafted with premium Michter's bourbon and Calvados brandy well balanced with pecan and maple. This bar is a hidden gem.

    My friend found the red room bar via a Google search. It's located inside of printemp, a luxury department store. It's beautiful inside and made me think of old movies where the stars grabbed a cocktail while shopping. The attention to detail was easy to see. The ice cubes were imprinted with the store's logo. Some of the drinks even had the name floating on top. This isn't a place I would frequent, but it's worth a visit and the photo ops.

    Cozy, stylish, moody. Stopped in while visiting the Printemps store and really enjoyed the vibe. The espresso martinis were exceptional, rich and perfectly made, though somewhat pricey. Definitely feels like an ideal spot for a date night or special occasion. Service was good.

    You'd think that this bar being one of the main concepts of the shop, it would live up to the hype of excellent service and ambiance. It was alright at best. Starting with the pricing - some of the generic cocktails were more expensive than food, $30+ ? Servers are not attentive and service is exceptionally slow considering they have 7 or 8 tables to service at most. Ordered two drinks right with food order. Waited 20 minutes for two cocktails and then another 15 or so minutes for food to come out. Had water poured when we sat down, no pitcher left on the table and no refills either. Lastly, the bar staff decided that instead of having two large trash bins one was enough and it was acceptable to be replacing that large bag of trash in the middle of service. Gross. If it wasn't for the bar food being good, this would have gotten 2 stars. Not at all fitting the concept of French luxury nor the vibe the store is aiming for. GYT cocktail - mostly a solid block of clear ice in a tall glass. Tasted okay but horrible for the price. Red juice with a splash of sparkling wine - $14 for the juice and another $9 for a droplet of champagne? Really? Had to ask for the cheaper option before they stuck us with a droplet of an expensive bottle Crispy chicken sandwich - pretty good, on the small side though Pomme frites - best item of everything we ordered. If I had to go back I would get the pomme frite to go.

    Very pleasant oasis away from the hustle and bustle of my great city :). Finding various Manhattan escapes are always a fun find. I enjoyed the refreshing Sorbet- Guava-Hibiscus--Refreshing with a kick of ginger lime shaved ice. July 2025. Inside Printemps-The Red Room Bar. Main Floor Very pleasant staff, service, tableware. Fun! A very nice treat. You deserve it! Stop by. NOTE--These days it's almost rare to pay in cash, we are so used to using a card to pay. (Sometimes it may even cost less to pay in cash, to avoid a small extra charge for the restaurant to handle the extra cost for cc usage). I paid in cash today, and the person who delivered my check, (not my server) and took the check, forgot to bring me my change. I had brought it to his attention that there was cash in the check holder, since there was a coin to keep things simple. Perhaps he misunderstood and thought I also meant bye-bye, just because I said there is cash in here LOL. I don't know , but pay attention if you are paying in cash, that's all. Enjoy!!

    The good is that the Red Room at Printemps is so rad to visit. The ambiance is unbeatable, it's moody and a little hidden and it feels like the perfect girls night out spot. Unfortunately I had a pretty bizarre experience here when I tried to walk-in on a rainy weekday with a party of four. It was quiet but the tables were mostly taken. Hours before we came there were a ton of reservations so we didn't think it was necessary because we only wanted drinks -- we were wrong. Apparently you cannot stand by the bar at all. There were three open seats but they wouldn't even let one friend stand between them so we were forced to wait. Okay, no problem, they said it would be 20 minutes. It happens. Well, an hour passes and finally I go up to ask about it -- they shrug and say well you can order drinks and sit on the couches by the shoes if you want while you wait. Okay, sure. Kinda wish we'd known than an hour ago. We order our $20+ cocktails and sit around... for another half hour. Still no table, no bar, nothing. We ask what the deal is, again they shrug and say sorry no dice. I note there's a whole new crop of folks sitting at the bar. We close our check and leave. I'm a very patient and reasonable person, but the experience was pretty lame. At bare minimum by the time an hour passed they should have reached out to us (sitting across the room a mere 10 second walk from their podium) to update us on the situation. We felt pretty forgotten about, which was just kinda dumb when we were sitting there staring at them the whole time. But whatever! I will say the cocktails were pretty darn tasty. I had a pink pony club and it was lovely. But they just don't seem to have their stuff together so make a reservation or wait at your own peril.

    Sexy little bar with great classy entry to the main dining room Maison Passerelle. Highly recommend ordering the Pink Pony Club! With Pommes Frites of course! Delightful service, the staff is so lovely. Definitely a pre-dinner cocktail bar or great place to meet.

    Pommes frites
    Chris D.

    This was so delicious all around. The fries were some of the best I have had in the city, which is weird to say for fries, but they were coated in a malt vinegar dust and served with two lovely sauces. The doctor's orders cocktail was perfect for this time of year. I'll be back!

    Great cocktails in the Red Room Bar at Printemps. If you are shopping at Printemps, or just in need of a respite, this is your special place.

    Every time I visit The Red Room at Maison Passerelle, I'm reminded why it's my absolute favorite restaurant in New York. The food is consistently outstanding; layered with texture, freshness, and flavor that feels both elevated and comforting. From the perfectly crisp pommes frites to the glazed honeynut squash bursting with spice and sweetness, every dish shows such thoughtful execution. The balance of flavors and presentation is just beautiful. Even something as simple as a fried chicken sandwich feels like a work of art here. The atmosphere is warm and elegant, with a cozy glow that makes every evening feel special. It's the perfect mix of sophistication and playfulness. Highly recommend for anyone who loves vibrant flavors, creative cuisine, and a dining experience that feels personal every time.

Ordered a Cadillac Margarita (Casamigos) for me + Vodka Martini (Grey Goose) for my partner + thick Fries + Slice of Chocolate Cake Drinks weren't anything special but the fries were hreat and cake hit the spot.

Our waitress was fabulous and so friendly, great with timing and checking in!

It delivered on both fronts, but I really was blown away by the wine. The sheer quantity of available wines is really impressive, and the sommelier was able to recommend a rare wine that fit our interests (a fantastic, effervescent, creamy Txakoli that had lovely fruit and minerals). Later, I tried amazing ice cider. The food rundown: -Sesame pizza Bianca: complimentary bread! This was very good and quite sizable. The bottom is entirely encrusted with sesame. -Scallop crudo (rhubarb, shiso): very good and the plating was gorgeous. Meaty scallops with tangy and pungent flavors. -Snowdance chicken (spinach, sherry, thyme): Super tender, crispy-skinned chicken in a savory sherry sauce. -Sea bass (asparagus, hollandaise): I was surprised at how remarkably well this dish worked. The asparagus was so good with the rich, buttery sauce. Definitely a smaller portion, but the chicken was huge so it balanced out. -Potatoes with ramps: Yum. Served hashbrown-style and the ramps were added as little sauce dollops. I loved the space, and by that I mean the ambience and also the literal amount of space we had to ourselves. We got to stretch out in a roomy corner booth. The room featured a lot of exposed brick and grey and utilitarian ceilings, but it manages to be cozy all the same.

We came in on a Friday evening and it was pretty quiet inside. After we were sat down upstairs, it took a long time for our waitress to come to take our order. We got the Butterscotch flip, Getaway driver, and Big trouble. These drinks were not it. Although the prices are okay($19 each), they definitely need some improvement. All three had very strong flavors that were not balanced with the rest of the drink. After we finished our drinks, we waited an especially long time for the waitress to come back, check on us, and give us our bill. It was especially frustrating because we were the only ones in the bar at this point and we could hear them chatting downstairs. Overall, both service and the drinks need improvement. Can't really recommend Split Eights over other cocktail bars around.

Our cocktails were delicious, music was on point, service didn't feel rushed at all. I was feeling adventurous and asked for a boozy gin-based cocktail.. loved it! My friend really enjoyed her drink as well. At $19 per cocktail, it's not the cheapest in the area, but also not the priciest either. Would absolutely recommend Split Eights to anyone looking for craft cocktails in the area.
