If you dig whiskey order the Blue Run Sling. All the wonderful whiskey flavors meld with a wonderful touch of sweet!

Best speakeasy in NYC. Literary theme makes us book nerds swoon.

Try "Tea Time at Guillermo's." A classy and unique tequila drink.

Cool place, dressed up people. The cocktails are special and the food is good but in small portions.
Breeze SkrrtJuly 23, 2015
Highly rated but drinks have always seemed sweet and single-noted to me. There are better, less heralded spots in the neighborhood.

Awesome drinks, if you can pronounce anything on the menu.
SonjaSeptember 19, 2013
Try the heart shaped box. It's a brandy cocktail- refreshing but not too sweet. One of the best cocktails I've had!
Cameron HendrixJune 10, 2013
Ask for 'The Devil Inside', a Scotch and Rye Whiskey based cocktail served neat

EaterNY calls the Tea in the Sahara one of New York's best spring cocktails
Charity GourleyMarch 30, 2010
Fantastic place! Tho maybe don't bring a first date here ladies, that waitress is too distractingly gorgeous for men to not oggle. Like taking a date to a metric concert, prepare to be ignored.

Call before 5 to make a reservation.

Excited to try Death&Co after Raines, Dear Irving & others. From the door, to wait staff to the manager absolutely terrible service & terrible cocktails. Go 2 bars over to Amor y Amargo and enjoy!
Rebecca MazzaAugust 6, 2014
Get here early so you don't have to wait outside!

If you're a fan of mezcal, it's alllll about the side eye.

Menu changes frequently but try the tequila-based mint julep, Southern Exposure, or the Rita Hayworth which are on the menu c. Spring/Summer 2010.
Sonal UJuly 29, 2011
The Waterloo Sunset is refreshing and delicious. Best drink we have tried so far.
Candice DSouzaNovember 30, 2016
Great date place! Watch the amazing mixologists at work.
Luca DLJanuary 15, 2012
If you have to wait leave your cell phone and you'll get a call back. Meantime have a frozen daiquiri at Cienfuegos ;-)
Jeffrey EasleyAugust 20, 2016
Cozy and you don't have to yell for your friends to hear you

Great venue, awesome drinks. Try the Aged Cheddar and Truffle Mac&Cheese bites or share with that special someone...delish!
E HOctober 23, 2015
The Cadmean Victory. So smooth, you wanna drink it in one swig. Careful though!
Laura ChinNovember 14, 2011
Get the Truffle Mac & Cheese: 8 bites of deliciousness. You won't be sorry.
Drew FreyMay 17, 2013
A drink like the Javanese Daiquiri packs enough rum to satisfy a privateer.
ChrisJuly 25, 2018
Nice craft cocktail bar

The Gimlet was really good.
Roger BloemNovember 22, 2014

2011 Winter menu must try: Hot Lips: Los Amantes joven mescal, jalapeño infused Chinaco verde, pineapple, lemon, vanilla syrup, cane syrup, salt rim.
Chad HornerNovember 19, 2016
good cocktails, the vibe inside isn't particularly unique though
