The backyard is a gem&mdash;covered, dog-friendly, and just a great spot. Their movie nights are a fun touch for a chill evening.

Celebrating Mother&#39;s Day at STK was a delight! The covered rooftop kept us cozy during the rain, and the lobster benedict was delicious. Our server was incredibly kind and attentive.

The cocktails are definitely NYC rooftop prices, but wow, that view. I came for a drink and ended up staying way longer than planned just to watch the sunset. It&#39;s a splurge, but totally worth it for the vibe alone.

No. 4 of Bars in New York

Great spot to grab a drink and watch the sunset over Hudson Yards and the Empire State Building. No cover charge, which is a nice touch. The drinks were solid, but the service felt a bit slow for a weeknight. Still, that view is hard to beat.

Came for the poke bowls. You can build your own or pick a signature one. Mine was fresh, good portion for the price. Felt like a solid lunch that didn&#39;t break the bank.

The jerk chicken bake was pretty good, flavorful and filling. The sweet chili one was decent too. A solid choice for a quick bite, though it can get a bit busy around lunch.

Our server was so helpful. I asked a lot of questions about the ingredients and sourcing, and she knew all the details. She suggested the grilled salmon with the seasonal greens, which was perfect. Really appreciated her attention to the fresh, simple options.

Service was impressively fast even on Thanksgiving. Our food came out quickly and everything was well-prepared. No complaints there.

The cabbage side dish is so good, I keep thinking about it. The karage was crispy and juicy too. It&#39;s a nice spot for a relaxed, no-fuss meal. The staff was friendly and didn&#39;t rush us at all.

Great spot for pre-dinner cocktails. The server really knew his stuff, suggested a gin-based drink that was spot on. Nice balance, not too sweet. They made a good mocktail for our friend too. Solid start to the evening.

That chicken pesto burrata sandwich is the only thing I think about here. The pesto is super fresh and herby, and the burrata just melts into the warm bread. Got a ginger lemonade too, it had a real spicy bite.

Stopped in for a Moscow Mule after dinner. That ginger kick was spot on. Seriously, one of the best. Cool, low-key spot for a proper drink.

The live music is what keeps me coming back. You might catch a surprise guest set on a random Tuesday. Classic NYC vibe, but it can get a bit loud for conversation.

Sat at the bar for the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra. The amaretto coffee was a nice touch, and the cheesecake was incredibly fluffy.

Solid quick bite. Got the shepherd&#39;s pie and chicken pot pie. Both were clearly homemade, big portions for what you pay. Perfect for a fast lunch.

Quick lunch spot with solid pasta. The manager handled a mix-up really well, appreciated that. Parking out back is a plus for a fast in-and-out. Drinks were fine. Got me back to the office on time.

Had a nice evening here. The outdoor seating was a real plus, very comfortable. The staff was friendly and polite, which made everything feel easy. A good local spot.

Decided to try the charcuterie board and deviled eggs. The eggs had a nice pickle kick, really liked that. Drinks were a touch sweet for me.

Stopped in for a beer after work. The owner really knows his stuff, talked me through a few local IPAs. Ended up with something I wouldn&#39;t have picked myself, but it was spot on. Good spot to unwind.

The Diablo Margarita here is a must. It&#39;s got that perfect smoky kick that just hits the spot. We grabbed a seat by the window and the nachos were a solid choice to share. Honestly, just a really good vibe for a casual drink.

Nice day so we sat outside. The patio is a good spot, feels chill. Had a burger out there, pretty solid. Just a bit of street noise, but fine.

The happy hour quesadillas were solid, but the real star was finding a crisp white wine that paired perfectly with the mussels.

Service was a mixed bag. Jackson was fantastic&mdash;super attentive and knew the menu inside out. The hostess, though, was pretty rude when we walked in.

The hotel itself is stunning, you can feel the history. We were just there for the pool, but ended up wandering the halls for ages. The architecture is incredible.

Great for big groups, they handled our party of 9 even on a busy night. The chicken wings were huge and the sauce was just right.

Kenna was super chill. The happy hour margs were half off, tried the passion fruit one. The spice bag hit the spot&mdash;fries, peppers, chicken tenders, all solid. Just a good, easy meal.
