Came here for happy hour and had an ok experience. The drink menu was quite small but the happy hour prices were decent. I got a spicy marg which wasn't really that spicy. The place itself is nice but they didn't have A/C and it was extremely warm inside. The service was average but the server was nice. Overall it was very average. read more

Really great bartender, looking forward to returning for HH! Really delicious espresso martini... thanks!!! read more

Witnessed one of the most racist bartenders I've ever seen. The man behind the bar was belligerent and began to yell at these two ladies. Then, he threw away these two ladies drinks because he wanted a tip from them. It ruined the mood in the establishment and everyone's night. He did not give them their money back either. NEVER coming back here again. He lied to the police after the ladies called them. read more

"If the Serbian mafia owned a restaurant" This place is cringe decor and crowd with a pretty decent wine list. Hard to believe a place like this still exists in 2025, but yet, here it is. It has that old world Eastern feel of new money without the glass. Gold, over-the-top marble, glittery shininess abound. Overly formal and pretentious waiters. Maybe it's your gig but not mine. What's good - Big wine list by the glass including a number of good wines from Italy - Not overly expensive - Uniquely located in a part of the city with a dearth of options What could be better - Dialing down the mafia factor - Decor that doesn't make you feel you are in a 1980s adult film - More food options that are unique - Needs more flavorful food read more

The bartender was letting customers smoke inside, so if you are a smoker, this is the place for you! I'm not a smoker, so it wasn't for me. Drinks were ok by the way. read more

Great service great drinks 10/10 I never miss a chance to grab a drink here. Neither should you! Never disappoints

Came in for a brief moment because I saw the happy hour sign outside. (Arrived at 6pm on a Friday) and the vibe of the wine bar was very welcoming. I will admit that the bartender was slammed and alone but he definitely was hustling! My sister and I initially ordered the happy hour mule but couldn't finish. It tasted like it was made with some sort of sour mix and was not agreeing with our palate, so we went for the house Chardonnay instead, which also was underwhelming. I may return to grab a bite because the music and staff were great, but I'll be sure to stick to a simply tequila soda. read more

Wanted to check out this bar for it just opened. Upon entering, I got such a good homey vibe with a bunch of Christmas decorations throughout. The music choice(pop) was also great. The bartender was friendly and provided prompt service. I ordered the skinny margarita and they did not skimp out on the alcohol which I appreciated. Definitely recommend if you are looking for somewhere casual, but not too casual to meet up with a friend or date to get some drinks in a classier environment than what you would find in your typical pub. I definitely will be returning. read more

Beautiful ambiance for a newly opened bar. Their HH is amazing from 4-8pm - $9 for a few white/red wines, Moscow mule, margarita, Manhattan, and basic Margherita pizza. Music is great! Service is nice, waiter greats and served us immediately Can't wait to go back, hoping to become a regular here read more

To Vero Social Management, I live in the residence directly above your establishment and am writing to formally document an ongoing and entirely unacceptable issue with excessive noise originating from your venue. Despite repeated complaints from myself and other residents, the music and crowd noise on Friday and Saturday nights routinely continue until 5:00 a.m. This is not a minor inconvenience--it is a blatant disregard for the people who live above and around your business. Expecting residents to tolerate nightclub-level noise through the early morning hours is unreasonable, disruptive, and indefensible. The fact that this behavior continues after multiple complaints suggests not ignorance, but indifference. It is difficult to understand how a business operating in a mixed-use building can so consistently fail to respect basic standards of coexistence. Let me be clear: the next occurrence will result in immediate noise complaints being filed, and I will continue to report each incident until the issue is resolved. If this pattern persists, I will also escalate the matter publicly and through all appropriate channels. This situation should have been addressed long ago. I expect immediate and lasting corrective action. read more

Marco is the best bartender! They ran out of the wine we wanted so he gave us higher tier bottle for the same price. The ambiance is great and so is the food. read more

Amazing bartender... nope... mixologist. He was friendly attentive and totally up on top notch cocktails . He killed it. You need to check out his specialty drinks as well as the cool modern but low lit vibe. #mynewfavplace read more

Back at again with the gem discoveries! And today's discovery is none other than Vero Social. Stopped by for Happy Hour to kill some time and both my mind and taste buds were awakened! Their service is awesome and the jams are perfect to escape the rush of this city. Although it is Sunday it's refreshing to know that places that extend their happy hour past M-F exist. Music and esthetic take you back to a classic Manhattan bar. Whether you are reuniting with friends or taking a your significant other to a romantic date; Vero Social will make you come back for more! read more

Yesterday, we popped into this spot called Vero Social in New York for a glass of wine. It was a rainy day, so we thought, why not grab a charcuterie board while we're at it. To be honest, the place was nice, but a bit pricey, and the menu weren't all that impressive. The charcuterie board, which cost $29, had a few pieces of cheese, bread, meat slices, and jam. The only edible things on the board were the bread and jam. When the bill came, we paid $47ish and added a $3.47 for tip . So, the owner/Bartender came over with the bill and asked us, "Hey, how was the service tonight?" I gave him a thumbs up and said, "Yeah, everything was great." So, he kept going on and on about why we didn't tip 10%. I didn't have a chance to say anything until he said ."I curse you" and I responded. What did you say? He said , " I curse you" out loud to remind you I am walking out the door and he's all the way in the front next to the bar . Then he repeat it and yelled at me to "get the fuck out " " get the fuck out" That bill was a total rip-off, and the customer service was a complete disaster. read more

Perfect ambience, perfect service - Marko is the absolute BEST! I was waiting for the bus right outside Vero Social, when some crazy man started harassing me. Marko saw it immediately and came to my rescue. He invited me in to wait for the guy to leave. As I was waiting for the crazy man to finish his rant, I decided to check out the menu. Highly recommend the white wine and Mai Tai here - very talented and friendly mixologists that know how to make a tasty drink, and staff that know how to create a safe space for women. Cannot recommend this place enough!!!!! read more

The owner is absolutely disgusting. I went to enjoy their happy hour by myself, chatted with the bartender and was having a nice evening. As soon as I went to the bathroom is when the issues started. I was in the bathroom for NO MORE THAN 2 Minutes and heard a banging on the bathroom door. As I was exiting I said "who banged on the door" since there was a woman standing there smiling awkwardly. The owner said " I DID, because YOU WERE TAKING TOO LONG TAKING PICTURES IN THE BATHROOM". I replied "how do you know what I am doing in the bathroom and how dare you rush me for another customer. I proceeded to say " don't ever do that again". He replied he absolutely would do it again. I told him he was disgusting for talking and treating me like that after patronizing his business. His reply was "thanks". I will never go there again. He is a disgusting human. read more

A tad overpriced in my opinion, but great mixologists, very friendly service, tasty appetizers, and cute interior. Happy hour special is a great time to visit. I haven't had any poor experiences with service/management like past reviews have mentioned and have visited quite a few times. read more

Beautiful space and a great addition to the neighborhood. The owners are so friendly and I look forward to them expanding the menu!

After recently hosting a Holiday party at Vero Social, it is safe to say we will for sure be hosting our future events at this beautiful establishment. For starters, setting up the arrangements for the party (scheduling a date, food and cocktail menu, allergies, dietary restrictions, payment, etc.) were all beyond professional, accommodating, and effortless. What a relief this was! The restaurant itself ascetically is beautiful! Exceptionally clean as well to add. They even contacted us a few days before the party to finalize all accommodations and make any changes necessary. How professional! The ornate Holiday decorations were stunning and all attendees were in awe of just how beautiful the restaurant looked which was also an amazing touch! The tables at which our party was seated were decorated gorgeously with candles, fresh rose pedals, and ornate glassware. The holiday menu we decided on between us and management served an over abundance of food. All of the food served was top notch and delicious; each dish was excellent. Needless to say, all guests left full and happy. We started with appetizers which were all more delicious than the next. Dinner we had a choice between three entrees; meat, fish and chicken. This was also amazing as our guests had different taste palates so Vero Social best accommodating us all was amazing. They also provided us with Gluten Free options for the pizzas and pasta which was also a wonderful, thoughtful addition. The drinks flowed the entire time, with no one ever having an empty glass. Also a great service as there was no drink they would not accommodate for our guests. The dessert was amazing as the owner especially ordered a cake that matched the Holiday celebration we were there for. It's the little touches. Honestly, we are beyond happy that we celebrated our Holiday party here at Vero Social with our loved ones. It was definitely worth every penny spent and we were treated like VIP from start to finish. Our guests loved every second as did we. Thank you to all the wait staff, bar and kitchen staff for all of your hard work. You definitely helped us to make memories to last a lifetime. Do not hesitate and plan your next event at Vero Social. You will not be disappointed. read more

DO NOT COME TO THIS HORRIBLE HORRIBLE PLACE!! I've never had a worse experience in NYC. This place is terrible and should go out of business immediately. Much better happy hours on UES. Wish I could leave 0 stars. The owner/manager harassed us and yelled in our faces when we asked about a discrepancy between the menu price and the check. From the reviews it looks like this happens often. The waitress was uneducated about the menu when asked simple questions like what type of vodka was in the happy hour martini or what was in the croquettes. Owner is a complete jerk and doesn't deserve your business. The food is also disgusting. read more

Just walked by to take the bus down 2nd Ave and saw this place. Looks super cute and was decorated nicely. I think this is the new location for the old Vero in the 70s. I had great espresso martinis and my friends enjoyed their manhattans. The bartender was really nice. The music is amazing and is a great addition to the neighborhood. Can't wait to start coming here regularly. read more

Great elegant atmosphere with good food and drink. Attracts a great neighborhood crowd. Recommend !

We stopped in for happy hour one evening (seems to be most weekday nights between 4:30 and 7:30) and the bartender could not be friendlier. They had multiple wines on HH. The place is decorated very well and it makes for a welcoming vibe. We did not eat so can't comment on the food. Great addition to the neighborhood! read more

My cousin and I closed out our Tuesday (ahem) night with a cocktail at Vero Social. We loved our time there - the bartender Marko in particular. We don't usually meet in that area of Manhattan but as we were leaving we said we would actually come back because of the atmosphere, the fact that it's opened late, the cocktails, and the staff. AND THEN I LEFT MY BAG THERE - realized at 1am and when I immediately called them it went straight to vmail. All of a sudden, Marko was PROACTIVELY calling me to let me know it was safe (and i went back to retrieve it immediately). The care (he found my name in the bag and GOOGLED MY PHONE NUMBER) and customer service and overall just HUMANITY that I felt after last night compelled me to write this. Thank you. You took a nightmare and turned it into a positive experience. Brava! (and we will be back but i'm leaving my bag at home next time!). read more

DO NOT COME HERE! The owner/manager harassed us and yelled at us when we asked about a discrepancy between the menu price and the check. He physically brought in the sign from outside and yelled in our faces that we should have known what the price was even though it was different on the menus that were provided. Everyone in the restaurant turned to watch and some people asked if we were ok. I have never been treated this horribly at a restaurant. I feel sorry for the bartender and servers who were very pleasant. Please stay away for your own well-being. read more

I went there recently with a friend and we had an amazing time. The host/owner Marco was very hands on, welcoming but most of all warm and hospitable. We ordered the Vero wild mushroom flatbread which was excellent and the charcuterie & cheese plate Which was also very good. I would highly recommend Vero Social for its eloquent decor, warm vibes and most of all charming ambience. The service was on point with attentive staff members and polite servers. I would definitely come back to Vero Social for drinks and the flatbread. read more
