Room 207

Honestly?? one of the best bars I’ve ever been to (budget-wise) I didn’t expect much since it seemed to be a newly opened place but mann did it exceed my expectation. Love the expresso martini and the high ball. Im not sure if it was just my imagination but the bees knees with Brooklyn honey had a slightly fishy taste on the first sip, which I didn’t enjoy as much but overall, it was ABSOLUTELY a nice experience. The employees were super friendly and attentive. Here are the drinks menu in case anyone wants to check it out before coming here since I didn’t find myself beforehand. Definitely coming back here!

Fantastic new spot on East Village! Fantastic cocktails and the food was excellent. I tried the shishito peppers which had a soy glaze but the humble potato is something I’ll come back for over and over. My favorite cocktail was the bees knees (made with local NY honey for the win). Next time I’ll try the Enigma menu and live music on the weekends! Perfect classy vibe, can’t wait to come again!

My friends and I didn’t have a plan for Christmas, but we saw they were still taking reservations and decided to check it out with no expectations. The food was honestly amazing, and the service was top-notch. All the servers were super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We ended up staying until closing because we lost track of time having such a good time. Highly recommend the highball, espresso martini, and the humble potato (not in pictures) ! Definitely coming back again as this could easily become our new favorite spot, and we might even turn into regulars.

Room 207 is a gem,Fantastic spot with a beautiful, cozy ambience and stylish interiors. The food is delicious and well-prepared, and the cocktails are perfectly balanced and creative. Service is warm, attentive, and professional. Overall, a great place for a relaxed evening or date night—highly recommended.

Found this place while looking through Bars that open on Christmas on "Resy" and 100% happy that I did. Honestly, such a GREAT experience to get to know this place before it gets viral on Instagram or Tiktok videos. I felt the authenticity and genuine service tonight from very Friendly and Attentive Servers and Bartenders unlike Influencers' Recommended Bars. My friends and I tried to order almost everything from the menu but my favorites have to be Espresso Martini and Highball. Will definitely go back again to try other drinks!

Easily in the top 5 cocktail bars in manhattan. stunning attention to detail, cool vibe, friendly staff. The browned butter old fashioned was browned butter washed michters bourbon, touch of NY maple syrup bitters and was topped with a shard of homemade butterscotch chocolate hazelnut bark. Bees knees used manhattan local apiary (several of their cocktails use honey from apiaries in boroughs of NY). The curated Japanese water craft ice was a nice touch. Oysters came on a swirled bed of seaweed arranged with pickled shallots, house made sriracha, and cilantro dust. fantastic. Hemant, Sahil, all of the staff- thank you!

Agree with everything that’s has already been said regarding service (impeccable) and quality of the food (stellar). The setting, a total vibe. We were lost in an another era. Pretty sure I saw Don Draper in the corner smoking a lucky strike. Very much a spot with refined drinks and small plates, what it lacks in menu options it makes up for in quality. But let’s talk about the portions. Why has no one brought this up? Honestly? Kinda small. For example…Lamb skewers comes with two kebabs each with 5 tiny (but delicious) pieces of lamb. I wanted more. Great for anyone on a GLP-1.

Loved this charming speakeasy. The food was delicious and the drinks were great. Our server helped us choose cocktails based on each of our preferences and we really enjoyed them. The atmosphere was very cozy and there was a live trumpet player which really added to the vibe. Will definitely be back!

Don't let the small menu fool you. The creativity, balance, and obsessive attention to detail behind each cocktail will leave you reeling, in the best way. Every drink feels intentional, layered, and expertly executed. Make reservations, and absolutely add Room 207 to the list while you're there. Perfect date spot for a couple of drinks: moody lighting, an intimate vibe, attentive service, and just enough edge to feel special without trying too hard.
