Rosevale Cocktail Room is the perfect spot for a date night! It's super cozy and I love their jazz nights. They also have great cocktails and food. The atmosphere makes me feel like I'm no longer in NYC. We had a really great night here. The staff was also very accommodating, knowledgable, and welcoming. I highly recommend checking it out! read more

First time visit to New York! First restaurant as soon as we landed, checked into hotel and got ready for our first night out! And oh & did my hubby do so well on choosing this place! We needed a place close to our Broadway show "Social Club" From welcoming, to ambiance, to service and to of course the food! My husband had indicated it was our birthdays so they provided a cute birthday card and made sure to wish us Happy Birthday when we checked in. Due to some unforseen circumstances (on our part being First time visitors not understanding NY traffic) we were short on time and they were still able to accommodate us! We were looking forward to do one their prix fix menus but had to cut our time shorter. We had the shrimp cocktail, would recommend and also really loved the serving coupe it came in! Fried artichokes that were mid at best and saved by the sauce it comes with. To save time we split the steak frites, I would recommend, though bot as tender as I normally like, I appreciate the serving and flavorful bites. The drinks are amazing and we love how they're all accompanied by a story! I had the heir to empire and our lovely waitress asked for my favorite color and when the drink arrives, it came with a little coaster in purple! And it was strong without it being overwhelming. For the remaining of dinner, I had a red wine and it was a perfect choice for the meal. Our trip to New York was too short because we wished we had been able to go back and check out their live performances. The vibe if the place was moody and inviting and we wished we could have gone back! We loved the Broadway homage throughout without being tacky. read more

6 or 7 stars for the cocktails Although the cocktail serving size is small (lots of ice!) the flavors are memorable. The Magical Tchotchke was particularly good. The first floor space is being renovated, only the second floor is open and you have to enter/exit through the hotel next door. The food menu is limited. But you're not going to Rosevale for a great menu. The service is adequate. It can be overwhelmed when the room is crowded. read more

This was such a fun space for dinner with colleagues. It was a rainy evening and we did not mind sitting indoors - even though there is a lovely terrace for next time. We enjoyed the cocktails and dinner special. Unfortunately, we were running late for Hamilton and missed dessert. Service was on point. Overall, i just loved the vibe and will come back in the future. read more

Rosevale Cocktail Room - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Love the vibe and decor here. Came here with a friend during Jazz night and the drinks were fantastic.

Fave cocktail bar in midtown that I literally always forget about until I'm sitting in it. Top choice if you're into ambiance because the amber lighting will put you in a state of relaxation no matter what happened outside before you entered. Having come from dinner, I had the choco mousse (a YES PLEASE) and a mocktail called the Rosevale E&L, which was shockingly good. My server was very nice and attentive. Who I assumed is the manager is a silver fox in a great suit who looks like he's all about his business. By the wonderful vibes, it's paying off! read more

We checked out Rosevale Cocktail Room in NYC's Theater District and liked it overall. It's a stylish, brick-walled lounge with big ceilings, an outdoor terrace, and creative cocktails that feel special -- perfect for a date night or a pre/post-show drink. The vibe can get lively on weekends, and drinks are artistic (and a bit pricey) but delicious. Service was friendly and the space felt warm and fun. read more

Rosevale Cocktail Room is above Rosevale kitchen. There's a long winding staircase to get to the bar. I am unsure if there's an elevator option to get upstairs. The bar room is not large but has tall ceilings, as well as outdoor seating when the weather is nice. There's table seating and bar seating available inside. The staff were friendly and attentive the entire time. The cocktail menu is intricate and unique. I had the Everywhere, All at Once which is a take on a Last Word with a savory touch of everything bagel seasoning. It was good and had a complex taste profile. I had potato chips and a grilled cheese to eat. The food here was very good and a step above the food served in other bars in the area. The noise level was moderate. They also do live music though that was not occurring when I was here. They have bathrooms upstairs and they were immaculately clean as well as tastefully decorated. This is a nice classy option near Times Square if you want a place that's not very touristy. read more

Cute drinks with incredible service. Stayed at the hotel attached and went to this bar multiple times. Would go back for the vibes/patio even if we don't stay at the hotel in the future. read more

Rosevale Cocktail Room - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

In a word, fantastic. It may not seem impressive as you walk in, but that's because it's their restaurant on the first floor. As you walk up a long, winding stairs you will enter a different world. Two story high display of vermouth bottles, warm and intimitate darkly lit setting, it's a night for romance. It really feels like something you'd see in the movies of old. A band playing jazzy swing-style music, a big menu of very original drinks (alcohol and zero, if you just want the taste without the fun effects after), plus decent bar food. I say decent because it's not great, but it's also not why you come here. Whoever you take, even if it's only yourself, they'll/you will be impressed. read more

My friend made a Resy for the cocktail room on a Wednesday at 6:30 for four of us. We got there early and there was plenty of seating and we had the option to sit indoors or outdoors. On a warm day, sitting indoors was not significantly cooler because the doors were open to the outside. We sat in our own area indoors and though it was dark, it was very vibey. If you sit outdoors, you definitely will have more light, even at night. My friends and I came to a rosevale because we saw the girl dinner offer (salad, fries and dirty martini) on social media. Unfortunately, it is only for the kitchen downstairs (first floor) which I don't think you need a resy for. We decided to stay anyways! I got the jungle cruise cocktail from their book, made with orange gin, pineapple, lemon, toasted coconut, champagne and more. It was absolutely delicious. They had so many unique cocktails in their book and would absolutely try another. The sliders come in two and are pretty small. The truffle fries were good with a mayo truffle dipping sauce The live music was a nice touch and since we were sitting to the side, it wasn't too loud. Our server was not the friendliest, but she came by enough times and they were all quick to take things away when it was low/empty. Just a note, you have to go in knowing this is a pricey spot. Ex: Two tiny sliders for $18, fries for $14, a Diet Coke for $6 and a cocktail is $21-22 They do have a Negroni happy hour from 7-9 for $15 Overall a good experience read more

Stumbled into his lovely place on a Saturday night. Honestly, I was on my way to Dickens, but the inviting lobby of Civilian, and the jazz singer at Rosevale called to me. Lovely service, and spectacular inventive cocktails. But more than just that: really lovely, sensuous vibes read more

We were staying in the hotel for this restaurant and decided to try it out between afternoon/evening shows. Getting there at 5 was quick; they had just opened and nobody was there. The timing was right, we got our bill a little after 630pm and able to walk over to the show after. They have a nice fixed menu for the pre-theater that was nicely done and just enough food. Drinks are on the heavy priced side, we did them but regretted it a little after the bill came, but when in Rome you spend blood. Nice service, the whole place is decorated with Broadway themed photos and stage models which are fun to explore. read more

After one less-than-stellar attempt to visit the Cocktail Room, we finally succeeded! I'm glad we did, as any memories of the pretention and attitude we experienced on an attempted visit on a much busier night several months back were quickly erased. From the smiling greeting of the lovely hostess, giving us our choice of seating locations (we took advantage of the gorgeous late-summer evening and opted for the outdoor area) to our lovely, attentive server Sophie, we were treated so wonderfully... even before they learned it was my birthday! The cocktails were ample and exceptional (their Negroni Bianco is one of my favorite in all of Manhattan). We were made to feel welcome, cared for and well-attended, treated like regulars, and the birthday did not go unacknowledged without a generous gesture made to all five of us. The location is really lovely, and the somewhat sparse early Monday evening crowd made conversation super easy. We're adding it to our list of favorites, and list of places we'll happily tell locals and out-of-towner about! read more

A staple in my neighborhood, love going for the live music and jazz and the great drinks, esp late night. I've been multiple times and the cocktails are usually pretty strong and there's an amazing menu. There is also food. It's usually packed so best to get a resy! read more

Really nice cocktail bar with tall ceilings, nice views (even though it is only the second floor), and attentive service. We tried a couple house cocktails (including one with mezcal that was at once floral and spicy, delightful!) and some good old standbys with a martini and an old fashioned, both nicely prepared. The food menu is sparse, but it's a cocktail bar, and you'll be pleased by all the small bites, especially the thick cut bacon. read more

Swanky, smooth, suave cocktail lounge right in the heart of midtown, but feels like you're completely away from the hustle and bustle. The drinks were outstanding (had a Happy Hour martini, and then couldn't resist getting another after HH ended). The service was lovely and welcoming (shout out to Sara(h) who was wonderful!). Apparently love jazz on the weekends? Definitely coming back soon. read more

Rosevale Cocktail Room - Appletini-foam Vesper - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

This place is an absolute hidden gem in New York City, and a must try! The civilian hotel itself is amazing as well and this is just an added bonus. Tucked away on the second floor you are transported to an elegant and tasteful cocktail lounge with high ceilings, tasteful decor and the best part, live Jazz music on Friday's and Saturdays! There are multiple tables to sit at as well as some standing tables and then seating at the bar. I went with a friend this past weekend and we both enjoyed it immensely. They have a very unique cocktail menu and the service is truly impeccable. We loved the Jazz that we heard which was a singer, pianist and an upright base. There is a six dollar extra charge which goes directly to the band on all checks when live music is available. Make sure to check out around the corner on the second floor the blue room which is behind some curtains. It has the vibe of a private cocktail lounge but is really beautiful and worth taking a look. They have amazing Broadway memorabilia that you can view and it's a must see in my opinion-especially for Broadway fans. What I love about this hotel and the multiple bars/lounges is that it is right near Time Square but does not have that touristy feel-it feels like you are transported to a truly special place. If you can check out the rooftop bar as well it's worth a peeK. read more

Meh I've feel like I've been to better places. Although the vibes were super top notch, the drinks were a bit disappointing. I got a Play which is a play on the old fashioned while my fiance had the Jungle Cruise. My drink was VERY watered down making me question my decision on spending $20 on the drink. The Jungle Cruise also veered towards the citrusy side, which if thats what you like I don't think you'd be disappointed. Also thought it was somewhat misleading to have a negroni happy hour advertised from M-F from 7-9pm for $10 but then get let downed when they say they don't do it anymore (the HH was whole reason I decided to make a resy here in the first place!). Drinks on average were $20-$22 a piece. Some of the specialty cocktails do go up (saw one for $60). Service was cold and lackluster. Ambiance however would save them for this review because it is very classy here for a potential date night read more

Have you ever bitten down on a meal so perfectly prepared and savory that you swear you were about to cry? If not, believe me when I tell you that this reaction is possible...because it happened to me. The Orange Duck at the Rosevale is made with magic as an ingredient. There's no other way to explain it. Whatever the ingredients are in this dish, I cant recommend it enough. Assuming you're a fan of rare duck meat to begin with. The Orange Duck aside, Rosevale seems to be a happening place to get a cocktail too. I mean come on, its a cocktail room with a great vibe. The drinks I had before dinner were perfectly crafted and served up by our amazing server. I recommend the Dirty Vodka Martini. It was exceptional too. Overall, I would absolutely come back here for dinner and or drinks. I should also mention that its perfectly located within walking distance of many broadway theaters. So its perfect for your "dinner and a show" plans. Hope you give it a try! read more

Ordered: The Laws of Alchemy Cocktail (~$23): Reposado Gran Reserva tequila, genepi, elderflower, apricot, black lemon, and beesaw Aya's take: We were in the area and decided to stop by Rosevale Cocktail Room for a quick drink. The downstairs is the Kitchen aka the main restaurant but once you go inside and go upstairs, you are led to the Cocktail Room. It has a rustic yet modern and intimate feel to it from the high ceilings to the brick walls to the art scattered throughout. Really great spot for some pre- or post-dinner drinks! The Hero's Journey Cocktail Book was quite thorough with 6 different chapters that highlight unique cocktails in each. The Laws of Alchemy was in the "Crossing the Threshold" section. It's meant to be imaginative and playful and the commitment and exhilaration of uncharted territories. I love how much thought was put into this menu and I knew the drinks would follow suit. It was beautifully crafted, the flavors were well-balanced, and it was incredibly smooth. This might be so niche but I liked that the ice cube was clear; not only is it aesthetically pleasing but allows you to enjoy the drink more evenly with every sip. Price is slightly higher than normal but it's justifiable as it wasn't your typical cocktail. Lovely spot to enjoy some cocktails; highly recommend! read more

Rosevale Cocktail Room - The Laws of Alchemy Cocktail (~$23) - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Excellent espresso martinis and chilled huge shrimp. The open air patio was delightful and service was attentive and prompt.

There is a lot of space here, and it is very impressive, especially in midtown, near Times Square. For the drinks, they were complex and boozy, my style. The menu concept is very graphical and the drinks are well made, and have a diverse range so you can find a fit for everyone's tastes. They are also very pricey, but I guess it is the premium for the space and the vibe you get. This is one of the few places in the city where you can have a real conversation without losing your voice or your eardrums. So for an extra $5 on my cocktail I guess that is fine. read more

Loved! Amazing atmosphere, excellent food and cocktails. Booked second reservation on our trip.

Took the beau here for an anniversary cocktail. Loved the vibe, especially the Broadway theme and the lovely veranda. The cocktail menu is confusing and precious but the drinks are the real deal.

Ate here before seeing a Broadway show. The place is a lot larger than it seems--host led us through three different rooms before we got to our table. Decor is beautiful. The room we were in had ceiling windows etc so a bunch of natural lighting. Our waiter was very attentive to detail. Food was quite yummy, especially the steak tips with sesame oil--very flavorful. Would want to try their bottomless brunch with pancake/pastry platter one day. The day we went, the kitchen flooded so they were going to cancel our reservation, but luckily they were able to get it up and running. read more

Favorite pre theatre spot! Great drinks and great vibes - and the host Sandra is so friendly and fun!

We loved it here! We sort of accidentally found this beautiful cocktail bar after seeing a show and are so happy about it. Our bartender was Emily and she made an amazing amaretto sour and the Fullmoon Lullaby. We also got some truffle fries which were delicious. And of course, we loved the live jazz band. We for sure will be coming back! read more

Overall rating: 4.6 I've been trying to go here for a few months, and finally got the chance last weekend. Admittedly I saw a cool tiktok for an espresso martini showing the making of, & have been wanting to try it. It turns out, it was actually a fancy whiskey mulled cocktail with crème and Hershey. It was good, don't get me wrong. But it was not how it was marketed in the video. It was one of the options for two at $50. We also ended up getting an espresso martini which was also good. I went on a date and that was the best setting. I was originally going to go with a friend but glad it didn't work out. The place is so intimate! The one hesitation I have is I ideally want to sit at the bar, but there's no option when making a reso. I think that seating is only for walk-in, but it would be nice to be able to sit at the bar. Also they had live jazz music which was soo good. With the two cocktails we had, the price was ~$71 ea . Yeah, yeah, it's a hotel. To be expected. I would be interested in coming back again. The area is HKish which is hard to find this setting. read more

I originally considered rating this a high 4-stars ONLY for the simple fact we didn't get to spend enough time here as it was one of the stops on a really fun Speakeasy experience tour. But upon reflection, 5 is really deserved. That said, we were very impressed with our visit to Rosevale Cocktail Room. Tucked away up an elegant spiral staircase within a larger establishment you are led through dark and intimate halls where we gathered into a cozy space adorned with displays of various Broadway memorabilia. Couch seating lined the perimeter of the room with small tables perfect for enjoying some fine cocktails. Love the fact that it feels like the kind of place you'd miss easily if you didn't know about it. The cocktail selection is not especially massive but it IS well-crafted and interesting. You're sure to find something to your liking. A decent wine and bubbles selection is also to be enjoyed, along with some tasty looking snacks. For our drink choices I opted for the "International Daiquiri", which consists of Bacardi Superior Rum, Clairin Communal Rum, Xalar Catalan Vermouth, Lime, Honey, and Absinthe (quoting here from the menu). Quite delicious and refreshing. Linda selected the "Fullmoon Lullaby", made up of Howler Head Banana Bourbon, Black Amaro Blend, Black Walnut, Black Lemon Bitters. Also highly recommended Being that we were on a bit of a time-crunch we didn't get to stay much more than 45 minutes or so but that time was very enjoyable, the group conversation lively. Our hostesses were very friendly and informative. The space is dark and intimate, with nice character making you want to come back often. Just the spot for a date night with a bit of elegance, ideal for a post-Broadway stop. We'll be back. read more

The venue, Cocktail Room, is attractive with bar seating, plush seating, and small tables and chairs. It looked like they had some outdoor seating too. We love a good cocktail, but came for the music. The music was great, but the crowd the evening we were there was a little too loud. We had a reservation, but we're seated at the one table with an obstructed view of the stage. Luckily, we were able to move to the bar. The bartender was great. She informed us that their vermouth collection rivals the Vermouth Museum in Spain! We started with the vermouth tasting, which we thoroughly enjoyed. As it was still happy hour, we also tried a few of their creative cocktails. The Bitter Divorce was smooth and bitter LOL. The shrimp in the shrimp cocktail were large and crisp. The grilled cheese sandwich was delicious. The zucchini was fried and the least interesting dish, but it was a large portion.There was no sauce with it; it was just sprinkled with a lot of cheese. read more
