• Cocktail Bar • Chinatown

Booked 5 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+.

• Cocktail Bar • West Village

Orient Express Cocktail Bar in West Village.The Orient Express may have inspired iconic novels and films like From Russia with Love, served as the setting for bravado characters like James Bond, and been featured as the backdrop of Agatha Christie's most famous works, but the famed vintage train continues to ride through modern culture with its latest stop in NYC's West Village,where Turks and Frogs owner Osman Cakir has re-conceptualized its famous voyages into a posh, time-reversing cocktail bar with a flair for the spirits of yesteryear. Its look reflects the nostalgia of train travel: Amid the sexy amber glow, warm vintage-tinted beech wood panels, faux windows and bronzed luggage racks, the bar—a handcrafted Caesar Stone beauty—is the clear focal point. Above it, the ceiling curvesto each side, and behind, bartenders bedecked in old-school vests and neckties shake andpour cocktails.

While searching for a high-quality sushi restaurant in New York, I stumbled upon Wabi Nori, and I'm so glad I did! The place has a chic, modern vibe, and the tables aren’t too close together, so you can enjoy a relaxed conversation. I was intrigued by their Hand Rolls section on the menu; the Lobster Hand Roll in particular offers an amazing flavor. We also shared Edamame and Wakame Salad from the Appetizers, both of which were super fresh. The Sashimi Combo we tried on my friend’s recommendation was the star of the evening. The service is quick, and the staff is kind and attentive. Prices might seem a bit high for New York, but they absolutely match the quality and experience you get. In short, once you try Wabi Nori, you might not want sushi from anywhere else
