• Cocktail Bar • Chinatown

Booked 24 times today

The Highlight Room’s real showstopper is the spectacular view of the city through a glass wall that spans the entire width of the room and folds back to allow access to the outdoor terrace. From there, guests can lift a cocktail to the expansive views — north to the Empire State Building, south to the Freedom Tower. The north and south sides of the room are lined with two-toned leather and velvet banquettes positioned to take advantage of the cityscape views from floor-to-ceiling windows.The bar, set off by wooden arches and antique mirrors, complements the greenery, and elaborate, candelabra-style chandeliers allude to the candles that would illuminate the German garden as evening fell. Layers of premium materials — plaster, brass, velvet upholstery, caramel drapery, terrazzo tiles — add a dose of playful luxury. Although the bar is open to the public, the overall sense is of a swank member’s club, a private Eden commanding the sky above the Lower East Side. Must be 21+.

One of the most special people in my life flew across the world to come and see me for a few days. And there was only one place I wanted to share the first day together with and that was at this wonderful restaurant. I always find Sundays tricky at restaurants, but I knew this one would not disappoint me. The ever changing eclectic menu, carefully crafted - was as usual - filled with wonderful choices and when our meal came out only one word comes to mind ..wow! The other test of a good place is what happens when the key manager is not there-not to worry here. The staff absolutely are a team- quietly and efficiently making it all happen. The service absolutely on it The vibe in the restaurant - authentic, relaxed - and chilled out ..just as it should be - seemingly effortless … I’ve said this before and I can only say it again this truly is the best restaurant in Williamsburg. Sorry Missy. Sorry everyone else. You’ve got a long way to go. Which makes me wonder - Why aren’t they on the top 50 New York list? Lazy journalists maybe? Go! Truly And no- I don’t hold shares in the place , although I wish I did
