Valary Oleinik: 2-for-1 martinis make this an after work staple. Mix and match drinks with friends (cute bartender's tip); try the blood orange, French and white peach martinis if you wanna go outside the cosmos box.
Gail Amurao: The 2-for-1 martini special is awesome, favorites are blood orange, passion fruit, and French. Great vibe and atmosphere for having a drink and conversation with someone. Their food is solid too.
Shomari Moorehead: Love the service and the 2 for 1 martinis. Passion fruit and mango are great. The food is too.
JC Earle: It's now my fave spot in NYC&that says A LOT.The salmon was slammin',their Riesling was great,the chocolate martini's were amazing(they come w/a cute tasty chocolate),&the tropical sangria...official
J Dubs: My ideal meal would be my complimentary tropical sangria, the truffle pizza as an appetizer, medallions of filet mignon and then the 20 layer with a chocolate martini.
SheSoBrooklyn Cole: I really liked it there ..... Chocolate Martinis were great

Karin Bäcklund: The Earl Grey Martini is just great!
Lauren: Sure, a martini is $21. But it comes with a side of extra martini, so it's really 2-for-1 and therefore one of the cheapest martinis in town.
Brant McQuitty: Best martinis and bar snacks on the UES, not to mention the Bemelman murals play nicely agains the dark space and great jazz trio.

Susie Yin: Gobo fries and miso wings to emulate Asian-American tastes, every cocktail is a great blend of Asian flavors. Gin lovers get the sakura martini
Caroline Schulweis: Before 2pm: umami Bloody Mary, before 11pm: Sakura martini, after...$10 Sapporo and a house shot 🍻
S. Fan: This is he perfect combination of #izakaya and #cocktail den. Only one drawback - the music. Too loud and totally misfit. Get sakagura martini and the pickles!

Hasnaa Rkhami: best martini in town
Bollare: Girly ambience with floral china, lace tablecloths, and even a pedestal for your purse! Great cocktails pureed with fresh fruit (literally watermelon chunks floating in a melon martini!). —Meg
BoozeMenus: The cutesy décor sets an inviting mood for intimacy and the list of house-infused vodkas and specialty martinis will wow anyone - we recommend a carafe of the horseradish vodka. Read more.

Perry Schaffer: All good. Service excellent. Martini (Gin) no problem. And... #bananacreampie
Eater: This mainstay has been feeding Broadway-goers, stars, and stagehands for decades. Grab a seat at the bar, order a strong Manhattan or martini, and watch the end of the game on the flatscreen. Read more.
Nate S: Classic New York. This place has been around for ages and to a certain older clientele this place is a landmark. I think of this it now as cool without being trendy. A+ burgers, martinis, and service.

emily chen: Come here early to sit at the bar and get their burger au poivre with a martini or a glass of bordeaux. Old school NYC gem. Sweet seasoned bartenders.

J P: Taylor Swift orders a personal-size gourmet thin-crust pizza, the Margherita and Rosetta De Lyo with Gorgonzola and salami, French martini and for dessert tiramisu with vanilla gelato.
Kazem Edmond: Wonderful atmosphere, on a sunny day or late at night. Also, ordering martinis is fun since they'll bring the shaker to your table and fill your glass right in front of you. Great cocktails!

Patricia Tirona: Try the Raspberry Martini
Holly Sargeant: Have loved this place since I lived on Mulberry and Houston. Kiss Me Deadly is amazing, and back in the day, they used to have my fave martini called the Metropolitan, like a blackberry Cosmo!

Steve Whittle: Eat at the bar, drink a Martini, order the specials, and return to the 60's
Rob H: Literally a step back in time. Very few places like this left in the village. Get a Martini and watch the geriatrics.
Richard Limato: Franco mixes a mean martini and the entire staff is so hospitable!
