The Ainsworth Midtown
3.8 (1,416)restaurant
A lively Midtown restaurant and sports bar offering DJ-led brunches and a rooftop lounge with skyline views.
Description



With its multi-level layout, this Midtown spot blends a classic American restaurant with an energetic social scene. The space features a main floor anchored by a lively bar, a spacious back room equipped for private events and DJ sets, and a rooftop terrace with views of the Manhattan skyline. The venue is particularly known for its weekend 'Bad and Boozy Bottomless Brunch,' a high-energy affair featuring a live DJ, two hours of cocktails, and classic entrees like steak and eggs. It leans heavily into a festive, photogenic party atmosphere, though the accommodating staff makes it easy for non-drinking guests to order a la carte.
