Description
This Upper East Side institution is a prime spot to people-watch the local elite. Beyond the classic cocktails, the bar offers a dedicated zero-proof menu featuring non-alcoholic options like the Pepito, a tequila-alternative drink with a kick. However, the experience comes at a notably high price point; some patrons note that the service can feel impersonal or fall short of luxury hotel standards. For private events, the space can host up to 78 guests.
