James John (Jay) Cudney IV: Good filet mignon. Pinot noir was quite delicious. Ordered the coconut cake and the pecan pie. I was hoping for more layers within each one to keep tasting great flavor but were a bit ordinary.
Zain M.: From the staff to the food, everything about this place is amazing. The steak is cooked to perfection with great dessert drink options.

ℳ𝒶𝓎♍: Rainbow Room is super open with insane 360degree views of the city and stunning interior design. Totally worth its high expenses if you want to celebrate something really special and decadent
Gothamist: The legendary Rainbow Room is reopening today. There will be a festive Sunday brunch in addition to Monday night dinners with live performances open to the public. Sun, 10/5. Read more.
Meredith Blechman: The much-hyped re-opening did not disappoint. The space offers the most incredible view of the city that never sleeps. The staff was incredibly attentive - service rivaled a Danny Meyer restaurant
Krystle: Fabulous stay here for my birthday. Rooms are spacious, hotel with class & elegance & great location. Also have a few drinks at the bar the bartender is a character & can make a mean martini.

Haya Al Dossary: Lovely view, cold rooms which is a plus for me, too bad about the mini bar though, $50 for moving a bottle of water? Yeesh!

Katie Pitre: Friendly staff, unique playlist that drowns out busy 2nd ave, cozy design, and great wine selection!
Harry: Nice, cozy little wine bar. Decent selection of wines and finger food. Conveniently located. However, the music does not suit the place and decor imho
Sexy LF: Nice selection of wines by the glass and a great, classy after-work scene. This isn't your popcorn and peanuts on the counter crowd.

Lebanese Restaurant · Sutton Place · 5 tips and reviews
Eric Willemaers: Tasty, fresh Lebanese food, nice service, nice open space 🌟
Michael G.: Beautiful decor in a spacious setting, ideal for large parties. The food was surprisingly healthy and light. Nothing in particular stood out as fantastic, but the food was solid.
Morgan McKee: Newer place, and it’s obvious. Not so crowded and service a little frazzled. However, food was decent and the space was nice. Could be something if food steps it up and service is improved.
