Pearl Box

Gorgeous spot! Every detail is meticulously thought out, from the vintage ad–style magazine menu to the deliciously crafted cocktails. The midcentury aesthetic carries through in such a fun way, right down to the bubble gum cigarettes they hand you with your check. It’s a true gem for date night or a night out with friends.

Ok so pearlbox I have to give it to them such a cutesy place I made my reservation thinking that happy hour goes through both floors of the establishment but it didn’t only at the bar on the 1st floor but that was fine the host was the sweetest and seated me at the bar while keeping a lookout for a table for me later in the evening 🙂‍↔️ the bartender was Lola she was just a darling dear the drinks were so good and I have to shout her out because she was so welcoming and I didn’t feel intimidated being solo at the bar. Now for my appetizer I had their truffle grilled cheese and it was sooo good definitely would recommend it to start. After having that a table opened up a little after and i requested their caviar service they didn’t have one of the types of caviar but i was really going for the experience so the dollar extra for the gold caviar didn’t matter to me and it was soooo worth it 10/10 on the caviar service I was treated so nice. I had their truffle grilled steak freits* with fries for my main course ok everything was good but the steak was a bit on the salty side it’s my fault for being shy and not wanting to send it back but it was cooked perfectly just salty. At the end when I got my bill I got some little goodies 🍬🍭from my waitress she was also just so nice all in all a time was had it was a calm, sweet, and mature vibe to the place great for solo date or romantic date

I think the inside is stunning. It’s beautifully decorated and quirky. I did not care for my Martini. It was pretty basic and not the best drink I’ve had. My friend ordered something else and it was mostly ice. They give candy which is cute, but it was $15. I think this place is overpriced but it’s a cute spot.

Pearl Box is the perfect place to start an evening, from its design to its hospitality. It’s a spot where I can spend hours without ever getting bored of the beverages. The ambiance is unique, and the service is top-notch. I will definitely be returning here every time.

Ok so first, the place is definitely vibey and cute. It’s pretty cool there’s a few floors and it feels like a very exclusive place. However, I honestly just don’t understand why a drink so small costs almost $25, they taste like any other average drink you can get at a bar. Everything is ridiculously overpriced. The caviar set is nice in the sense that there’s a some variety, but how the hell is a few bread crumbs and toasts plus chips be $25 per person for that small?? So between 4 ppl, the whole set (u see in the picture) was basically $100. Like I could buy a whole feast with $100 outside or buying my own chips and bread and plates too. And BY THE WAY, there’s like a $40 minimum spending and the $25 per person is just the caviar set (bread + sauce) and not including the caviar. The sauce itself is also so small, I think they should’ve given each person a set of three instead of 4 people sharing three tiny bowls (it’s barely enough). That said, the food does taste good and the truffle fries are expensive but pretty good. Everything is “aesthetic”, though it’s really hard to hear someone across the table cuz it’s quite loud there, I feel like the seating placement is kinda awkward. The bill came out to be $400 between 4 ppl so :))) not including tax and tips. Anyways, this is like once a year for me so like whatever, but as a tip, before you bring friends to this place make sure everybody is on the same page about the pricing expectations. I personally don’t think it’s worth my money here but maybe if you’re on a date with someone special it’s fine. I just think you could enjoy a lot of other places and eat more for this price.

My friend and I had an amazing experience at The Pearl Box! Our server Ken was incredibly attentive and kind, and his outstanding service truly elevated the entire evening. We got seated in a cute lounge area with plush red chairs & loved the elegant + chic decor!! The caviar service (shoutout to Ken 👏) was fantastic and the mushroom toast and popcorn chicken were both delicious. We honestly didn’t expect much from a bar menu, but we were pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend Pearl Box for a special night out with great ambiance, amazing service, and unexpectedly great food! I’ll definitely be back.

omg - we were in awe of how aesthetically pleasing and alluring this place was! we walked in on a Sunday right when they opened - it was pretty empty and we were the only ones there. highly recommend making a reservation if you’re coming on a busy day! we came for pictures, the owners and servers were so friendly and kind - hyping us up and allowed us to take pictures anywhere and everywhere! we were also given a plate of free candy for the vibes 🥹. we ordered steak frites and 2 mocktails to share - everything was great and appetizing. definitely recommend this spot for a date night or a GNO ❤️

Came here with Friends and we had to add two friends last minute and they were very sweet to accommodate. Drinks are great. Those that complain about pricing I imagine don’t frequent- chic cocktail lounges frequently. Havent tried the food yet , commenting more on the staff, all very sweet and engaging and accommodating.

Solid atmosphere, vibes, and apps. Menu is mostly snacks and drinks in addition to their caviar service which they are known for. The caviar was well-done but fairly standard. The popcorn chicken was good although heavily spiced, martini was lacking but overall i liked it. Perfect date spot! Be prepared for the "current" menu to only have caviar options at $4-$5/gr unlike the menu online and bring a jacket as the AC can get strong.

*Pearl Box is located above Heroes restaurant and is only accessible via climbing 3 flights of stairs. It is not ADA accessible* Had a reservation for a Saturday night. We showed up on time and were taken upstairs. The hosts were all friendly. The space is not big at all. Maybe 10-15 tables that seat 2-4 people. We were sitting on a small couch near the front. It was a comfortable couch! The space is gorgeously decorated in a 70s vibe. Music playing with a mix of old and new. Wish they played more disco. Service was attentive. The only downside was their lack of vegetarian options on the menu. Both my friend and I are veg and the only two things we could order were the bowl of candy and a bowl of potato chips. Both were very good however! The drink menu is pretty interesting. I had a drink called a Floradora which was botanical and made of gin. My friend had a Sazerac. They were not the best drinks I've had but not the worst either. There's a bathroom upstairs that's decorated with 70s playgirl and playboy magazine covers which was fun. After 90 minutes, we were asked to leave so they could seat the next reservation. This was fine with us because we were done after our one drink and snacks. I'd be inclined to stay longer if I had more food to snack on. The sound level wasn't loud and overall, this was a pretty nice, chill environment even on a Saturday evening. Would go back and really hope they add more veggie options to the menu. There is apparently a $45 per person minimum but we did not meet it and were not asked to either. Maybe because there was not much for us to order as vegetarians.

Loved this retro cocktail bar in SoHo! Was a fun place to have drinks and apps. Cosmos were tasty, candy bowl was a fun treat, and the French fries were incredible. Loved the 70s-vibe, was intimate but upbeat and energetic. The table next to us got caviar service and our server was nice enough to let us try a little too, it was excellent. Warning they do have a $45 pp minimum, which is absolutely easy to meet but not a place to grab just 1 cocktail after dinner.

This place OOZES sexy. The vibes are HOT. Come on a date and let the ambiance do half the work for you. The decor alone feels upscale. Then the drinks- classic or fun, and AMAZING. One of the best martinis I have had in a while. We didnt try any of the food but eh whatever the menus small anyway. We saw people with the caviar and it looked insane they carted it out and served tableside- wowza.

this is a special speakeasy for those who are looking for something very new it's a red velvet cozy bar, i managed a walk in! the food: the crab fritters were a bit dry but i loved the candy box the drinks: martini was fab the space: the cutest!

What an incredible place! It has a warm and inviting atmosphere. I'm so glad I could impress my aunt and uncle with Pearl Box. The owner and staff are exceptionally friendly. Highly recommend, but be sure to make a reservation!

Cute little spot above Heroes. The whole thing feels like walking into someone's top floor attic/rooftop area. It's well decorated and there is a mix of cabin rustic vibe + Nordic chic + modern lighting. It strangely works but not necessarily comfortable seating or relaxing vibe. I imagine it's because the space is quite small and nobody can escape the feeling of being a bit cramped. They do have an outdoor space that seemed to have potential; I didn't get to check it out because it wasn't quite ready for the patrons. The drinks were pretty standard for your NY craft bar scene: pretty good but nothing memorable.

honestly it is so cute in there, went there on a little cocktail date after a broadway show and had so much fun. Made friends with one of the bartenders and their partner and literally everyone who worked there was so so nice. We are definitely going to come back and pop all the way upstairs next time.

Went for after work drinks on a Friday with a friend. When we walked in the vibe was super cool and the host was very friendly when he seated us. I ordered a dirty martini and my friend ordered a gimlet, $24 each, and an order of French fries, $12. The drinks came first and I can tell you, you're not paying $24 for good ingredients, finesse, or even glassware (they were plastic), instead you're paying for the tik tok ambiance in Soho. When the French fries came, there was mayo (let's be real, aioli is just mayonnaise) on the side as a dipping sauce. I'm not a fan of dipping French fries in Mayo, so I asked for ketchup and the guy said "we don't have ketchup, it's not that kind of place," which is a confusing statement when the French fries clearly came from a bag (they tasted like McDonald's) and the drinks were mid. If it's not the kind of place that has ketchup there should be a ketchup style dipping sauce to offer. There's a sign on the menu that says $45 minimum (embarrassing to have to require that) but we asked for the check and they didn't enforce the rule. I'm conclusion, you can only be that rude if the food and drinks back it up, this is a pass in the future.

We had drinks at upstairs bar night of Saturday 3/22, bartender was extremely condescending and nasty. Made the experience not enjoyable. Loved the vibe, but was not happy with guest experience.

They require a minimum charge of $45 a person. The drinks were not that great. If you have dinner downstairs and then go upstairs for pretty much the same drinks you will still be required to spend $45 a person on drinks. The ambiance was okay, nothing over the top. I don't recommend. There are a number of other amazing cocktail bars. I do recommend Heroes though for dinner.
