Driven by the spirit of the Irish Playwright, our bar pays homage to his genuinely prolific story. Oscar Wilde turns the Victorian Era on its head. Without relinquishing any of its glamour. Just like Wilde himself, we believe life should be lived to its fullest, with a touch of sophisticated debauchery. Why miss out on the fun?

    One of the best experiences I’ve had in New York. Had to book pretty early in advance due to the Valentines Day weekend rush, but got a lovely early afternoon spot. The atmosphere was so elegant & classy. Our waitress Mary Alice was so kind, accommodating, and overall such a pleasure to interact with. Yes it is pricey, but the experience and the quality of the food/tea was well worth it.

    I went there with my wife for the Valentine's Day event that included six decadent little meals (salad, soup, finger sandwiches, scones, cake) paired with a delightful assortment of teas. It was wonderful, and so was the experience, which included a live violinist. Top notch!

    We really enjoyed our experience at the restaurant. We chose to do a pre-valentine's day (we tend to celebrate the day before to avoid the crazy crowds). The place was excellent in terms of service, food and ambiance. The deco is super, there was a jazz band playing and the overall experience was great. Definitely a must go and a place where we will go back.

    Food and service were great. Music was too loud and we had to shout to hear each other. Noticed others were having to shout also which made just made the noise level higher.
