Description
Bella Union is an upscale American saloon spread across three levels, with a rooftop that offers direct views of the Empire State Building. It serves lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch, and the kitchen turns out hearty mains and wings alongside a full bar with thoughtful non-alcoholic options. The interior leans into a warm, vintage aesthetic with deep wood, while the rooftop is a favorite when the weather cooperates. Service is often described as attentive and down-to-earth, and the space keeps a relaxed, neighborhood feel with music that doesn’t overpower conversation. Regulars appreciate the rotating specials—burgers have been known to go for $10 on certain weekdays—making it a solid pick for both casual drinks and a full meal.
