    Lemon drop $16 Old fashioned $18  Hennessy neat $21
    L. V.

    This place is like a sexy little speakeasy. My coworkers & I came after work for drinks but unfortunately the drinks were lacking, weak. I mean we tried lemon drop, side car, old fashioned, the Hennessy neat was the tiniest pour for $21. We don't mind paying when drinks are good but it wasn't the case here. Also $14 for the smallest serving of french fries I've ever seen blew mind. There was an employee who greeted us when we first walked in. He was very welcoming with positive energy, sociable. (Angel) The music was great, dim lighting, clean establishment including the bathrooms. I would for sure come back for the vibes, hopefully they'll have a different bartender when I do. We didn't order any food other than the fries so I'm not sure if they have vegan options. Enjoy!

    What a cute spot! Love the look it's small but chic and the music is 2000's hip hop and r&b which is my favorite. Drinks were good! We had an amaretto sour, paper plane & sidecar. Service was awesome thank you Angel. they were open on a whim for Presidents' Day so the kitchen was closed so I can't comment on the food.

    This cocktail bar is hidden behind a tailor shop. The space is intimate with lots of ambient lighting. The service was personal and great. The food even though tiny was delicious. I ordered the chicken empanadas and bbq wings. The chicken empanadas were seasoned perfectly, rich, savory, tender, with a flaky exterior. It's definitely a must try. The wings were also very tender and a bit over salted. As for drinks I ordered Mexican Mule and sidecar. Out of the two the sidecar is definitely worth a try. It's a sophisticated lemonade with Hennessy and Cointreau. This place is definitely a hidden gem and I would visit again.

    The Terrace is one of my favorite spots in EH! And Ananda is the sweetest bartender! So attentive and always takes care of us. Love coming here and always recommend to friends looking for a cute chic spot for a quick drink or a few rounds!

    Absolute amazing! Atmosphere was chill and vibing for all personalities. Staff was amazing and absolutely great! Loved their lychee Martini.

    I had my birthday party here. Zuly the manager was responsive and answers all of my emails in a timely manner. She gave great suggestions on what to serve for the party and had a plan for the bar service. The food was delicious! I had empanadas, popcorn chicken and jerk fries for appetizers. My guests were so happy and full. Her servers had great attitudes and worked so hard. Everyone left happy and full. Perfect place to rent for a party or any celebration. We will back!

    The Terrace is a destination for cocktail lovers. The experience is best in the evening which when their hours are ideal for getting together on a date or a group. The ambiance is very speak easy and there's music to add some liveliness though I'd prefer a more quiet atmosphere with jazz or bossa nova music. Cocktails are good and tasty with a food menu for bites that include pork sliders, chicken wings and empanadas among others. Reservations are required. I enjoyed my experience here, but would recommend the mixologist and bartender add story telling to the cocktails for a better experience.

    Fabulous!! Cute garden. Delicious cocktails. Good food. Find vibes. Will be back asap. Highly recommend.

    Peru , was an amazing bartender will be coming back very attentive , polite &  made sure we felt welcomed the entire time !

Enough space to feel like you're not on top of each other, but not really a place for huge parties. Probably great to do a buyout for birthdays, etc. The happy hour (food & drink) is affordable with a nice selection and runs a good length of time (5-7pm). The non-happy hour menu is the real gem though. A little pricey for the neighborhood, but the quality is on par with cocktail bars down in the villages, so well worth it. Service is quick without being overbearing, and casual without being lazy. Handsome bartender and server. Better to make a reservation later into the night closer to and on the weekend because the space fills up fast. *will update this review when I've tried more of the food*

My fav was the Paper Plane and my husband's was martini with caviar (the caviar made it taste like a dirty martini! Genius!) The beautiful decor and relaxed vibe is mixed with neighborhood foodies and diversity of age and backgrounds gives a warm inviting feeling as soon as you enter. The staff were welcoming, kind, attentive and never overbearing. It's a perfect meet up for 2-4 people, comfortably.

The vibe is chill, relaxed, and very neighborhood-friendly. Even when it's busy, it never feels overwhelming, and they're usually very accommodating with walk-ins. The service is also some of the best I've experienced in Harlem. My go-to is the roasted duck, which is consistently excellent. It's cooked medium to medium-rare and comes with mango, onions, vegetables, and greens. Easily one of my favorite dishes in the neighborhood. The drinks are great too. I recently had the Nas, their take on a Manhattan, and it was incredibly smooth--one of the best whiskey cocktails I've had in a while. Overall, 10/10. A hidden gem on Lenox between 119th and 120th and definitely one of the best spots in Harlem.

We both had Brussel Sprouts, good, but the bites without the sauce did taste like bland Brussel sprouts. I had the lamb ribs, very good. They do warn you before that the ribs have a bit of fat on them, I think in the context of NY restaurant week I'm happy to pay it but as a solo entree, the amount of fat vs meat would have annoyed me. My friend had the duck, she enjoyed it. But it is very much salad with a side of duck, I believe she had 6 pieces of duck (pictured) and then a mango, arugula and onion salad. Dessert was very good, but I do hope those are not the usual portion sizes and maybe they just served smaller for NY restaurant week. Which I really didn't mind as I was full from the entree and sprouts. Servers were really nice, this place seems to have its regulars and a nice garden sitting area towards the back. Would overall recommend

The pork chop arrived dry, which is hard to forgive on a cut that should be the kitchen's pride. The steak was competently cooked but unremarkable -- no real seasoning, no char to speak of, nothing that set it apart from a passable home-cooked version. For a restaurant at this price point, the kitchen should be delivering more. I'd happily come back for cocktails at the bar -- the n and the staff deserve that. But on the food alone, there are better options in the neighborhood.

It feels like a coffee shop, bar, café, lounge and pre-party stop all at once. The bar staff were "nightclub friendly", they had party energy that this place doesn't warrant. They'd make fun hosts for a great party. The space itself is confusing in an interesting way. It's cold from the tiles and exposed pipes, yet warm from the wooden walls and historic decorative figures. Maybe the idea is that you show up with your group and shape the experience into whatever you want it to be. Still, I'm of the opinion that it's a shared effort. If I'm coming out and spending my money, I deserve an experience. Let me know who you are, and I can decide if you pass my vibe check.
