"Set six floors atop a boutique hotel with unobstructed Manhattan skyline views, this spot is known for top-tier martinis and classic bar comfort like French fries. Practical perks include weekday sunset discounts (5–7 p.m.) and afternoon tea with savory toasts and elegant pastries. It’s also a solid option for groups thanks to a $65 prix-fixe for parties of seven or more that features family-style seafood plateaus, fried chicken, and chocolate cake." - Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner
