    Pros for the show
    Tiffany H.

    I came here for show, a one time presentation, Never sleep Alone. It was fun n interesting version of Dr Ruth Wes time. Do you remember her? There are several shows happening at once. There a roof top restaurant Gallow Green w great drinks too. N nice views. I'll have to Ck out others shoes as well.

    The McKittrick Hotel is not and never was a real hotel. It is just a warehouse in Chelsea that has been turned into a theatre space. We came here to see Speakeasy Magick. The venue itself does look interesting. They have turned it into a place that looks straight out of the 1930-1940s. I read that they do Halloween balls here and it is easy to see why. The dim lighting and dark brown decor give off a haunted house vibe. The show left something to be desired though. Because they specialize in smaller and intimate shows, the shows are really overpriced. Speakeasy Magick was almost $180 for a basic ticket after the service fees. The production value is actually pretty cheap. You will be seated at a table with other people - about 10 people at each table. The show is mainly a rotating group of magicians that will go to each table doing card tricks. Once you look past the atmosphere, you will realize your money is what has done a vanishing act.

    The mood and vibe is definitely set as soon as you enter the building. The experience you get here is like no other it's something close to an isekai anime but ur just a witness to the multiple storylines that they provide. If you're someone who enjoys thriller, dark, mystery, and silent genres this is something you would not want to miss out on. Tips: Definitely a lot of walking and running up stairs so make sure you wear sneakers. You get coat checked $4 per person and they lock ur phones. After you get ur tickets and are brought up to the bar where you wait for your number is called. Drinks were definitely interesting but also super pricey.

    10 Feb. 2020 This was the best thing we did in New York. We were looking for unique experiences; we weren't sure what to expect, but we bought tickets for dinner and a show, The Woman in Black, and arrived at the "hotel." We were led inside this mysterious building and the elevator attendant brought us to our floor. We were led to our table which was a private booth - in a train car! Not just any train car - an old-timey one that makes you feel like you're in an Agatha Christie novel. Our server, John, was an absolute delight (he reminded us of Dr. Who ((Matt Smith)) in the best way; whimsical and eloquent). The menu was delicious and offered classic English fare - my pot-pie was perfect, and the sticky pudding after was to die for. The cocktail menu was also impressive, but I am currently obsessed with gin-aviations, and asked John if such a thing were possible to procure. He knew precisely what the drink was, and immediately had the ingredients brought over from their neighboring restaurant to make it for me! Then, showtime. It turned out I was familiar with the story - it was made into a good horror movie some years back - superbly acted and engaging. I literally screamed, I was so IN the story. What a magically eerie, beautiful, and brilliant experience. Don't miss it - we'll surely be back next time we visit the city.

    Rosé was not good. Never trust screw top anything lol

I must have passed it many times. A Greek church and a Greek diner are nearby, as is Alvin Ailey where I have taken lessons and performed, and of course the SAG Foundation is across the street.

    Was here for a special night and left a bit underwhelmed…read more So much of this place works - classic NYC theater vibes, and the musical talent, food and drink were all great. The show I saw had incredible performers and felt really happy to be attending. But this is where it fell apart. I have a great deal of empathy for waitstaff especially during this kind of cabaret show. I had gotten a last minute VIP ticket and ordered a drink - and was informed at the time I placed a drink that there was a $25 mimimumx which I knew about when I bought the ticket. The waitress who served us was unnecessarily rude sbout it: I went to order food but stopped at spending more because at that point, the fewer interactions with her the better. I don't know what to think - someone willing to spend more money and feeling reluctant to because of a rude waitress is a problem to the venue to fix.

Despite it being very small, and crammed, the service is excellent, efficient, and the atmosphere is incredible! If there was a place for maximalism, it is here. They have so much decor, all over. From vintage American, to Japanese, and French, etc. The trains that run above your head add more to the mess. But, somehow, it is comforting, despite all that is going on. The food is excellent, and although they are famous for their croquettes, which I was actually less keen on, their cod roe pasta/udon is absolutely stellar. Never have I had such a deep seafood flavor with the egg texture and cream. It is delicious. The katsu sando is also incredible, and generously portioned. I would say the cocktail program is not as good, the Zen matcha vodka was way too vodka strong and not enough matcha or balance. The earl gray infused cocktail was nice however. It is a lively dream to be in, to experience a night at Tomi Jazz.

    Came here for the music and left happy, which is honestly the only metric that matters for a spot…read morelike this. The live band was great, the vibe was lively, and people were actually dancing instead of just sitting around pretending they're "listening." Food was good, service was easygoing, and the best part: zero pressure. They have a minimum spend, but they don't play games with it. Hit the minimum however you want, drinks or food, your choice. Other places love to force both, which is basically a tax on having fun. Not here. Why not 5 stars? The place is a bit dated. Our booth was literally held up with tape and the cushion situation was... let's call it "vintage springs." I heard they're planning a remodel, and if that happens, this becomes an easy 5. Until then, it's a very fun 4 and I'd absolutely come back.

    11/7/25 - We came here late in the evening on a Friday night. We were looking for a jazz/swing club…read morewhere we could listen to live music AND dance. Most of the clubs we saw were more for eating/drinking while listening to music but didn't offer the dancing component. If you want to just listen to the music while enjoying your food/drink then sitting at the bar is free. To sit in the back area where the band and dancing is, there is a $15 cover fee. We didn't order any food and my friend did order some drinks but I'm not much of a drinker so I can't comment on that. We enjoyed the music and watching the regulars dance. A couple regulars were very nice and brought us out onto the dance floor to show us some simple moves! Unfortunately this place is closing at the end of December. It's really sad that it is going away as the regulars' described it as one of the places in the city with a dance floor where you can actually dance to the live jazz/swing music. If you are in the area before they close and want to spend some time away from the busy city definitely stop by here!
