Gilt City: Madam Geneva is known for its fruity preserves—all of which can be served over ice with Beefeater gin or 42 Below vodka. Think: pineapple vanilla bean, pear ginger and cranberry orange.
Nina Yiamsamatha: If you have trouble deciding what to order, let them decide for you. Ask for the Bartender's Choice and tell them what flavors/liquors you like.
Zack Sheppard: Yes, the cocktails are superb, but they're only half the story. This place has some of the best speakeasy dinner food in the West Village.

Will Bertelsen: Very inventive cocktail menu at the expense of allowing custom drinks. The space is also pretty strange, though renovations are coming. Great for a visit but glad I don't have to come here every week

Will Bertelsen: The Prolgue is a take on a Last Word that incorporates the very piney St George Terroir gin and pine liqueur to great effect. The trees, they are us.

Will Bertelsen: The middle floor is definitely the floor for cocktail nerds. Less crowded, much more complex menu. If you're going to pay 14+ for a Vegas cocktail you might as well make it worth it.
