Romeo's - Review - East Village - New York - The Infatuation
"Romeo’s is a neon-pink-lit bar on St. Mark’s that’s a far cry from the seemingly hundreds of dives on the block. It’s the kind of place where you’ll see plenty of vintage torn Led Zeppelin shirts, but if you asked anyone wearing one about Physical Graffiti, they’ll ask "is that a TikTok filter?" You’ll find that everything in Romeo’s is Y2K-themed, from the people inside, their outfits, and the potential of Wesley Snipes’ role as Blade playing on a projector. Sit at the bar, and you’re almost guaranteed to hear something along the lines of “can we please get two espresso martinis?” If you aren’t sure what you want, there’s a TV menu with pictures of the highball, shaken, and stirred cocktails ($15-19), as well as some snacks and sandwiches." - Will Hartman
