J.R.: Good vegetarian offerings, amazingly creative drinks with impeccable presentation. One person had a white cosmo with a orchid frozen in a sphere of ice in the center of it.
Priscila Montandon: Get the Daniel's cosmopolitan before dinner!! Delicious ! There is a orquide petal inside an ice ball!!! OMG!
Andy Wang: Do yourself a favor and order a white cosmopolitan. 7 course meal is the epitome of glutton; recommend you skip lunch if you plan to go for 7 course. The same goes for your entire table

99U: Relax with a perfectly mixed cocktail and a snack amidst the oak-paneled confines of this chic old-school bar. Ideal for quiet conversations + romantic rendezvous. Mon-Thur: 5pm-1am | Fri-Sat: 5pm-2am
Holly Sargeant: Have loved this place since I lived on Mulberry and Houston. Kiss Me Deadly is amazing, and back in the day, they used to have my fave martini called the Metropolitan, like a blackberry Cosmo!
David Dunhill: A cocktail bar where the gin and tonic is a glass of gin and a bottle of tonic water

Time Out New York: Try the house gin and tonic, a complex cocktail with little in common with your garden-variety G&T. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more.
Ben K.: Pucker up, this place is all about the bitters. Highly recommend the Bittermen's Gin & Tonic and Eight Amaro Sazerac.
Noah: For something on the light side, get a gin & tonic. For something more adventurously bitter, get a smoky cocktail. I promise you've never had a drink like this before.
J.E. Pizarro: This is the place the used for "Scout". Steve's bar in Sex and the City. Grab a cosmo! Foodies Like Us recommends!
JJ Pang: I recommend sitting in the lounge area, it has a very relaxing feel with feelgood music. The place has calm dim lighting. A great place talk.
Buford Barnes: Established 1920s(?). Antique fixtures(?). Was brothel, speakeasy and gambling parlor across from old police headquarters. The system was so corrupt a tunnel connected the two buildings.

Abbey Keck: The Cosmic Cosmo Jell-O shot is delicious (and pretty!). Also, the …Baby One More Time cocktail is light and easy to drink.
Kidhack: Jungle bird has a Fern Nouveau vibe with a selection of tiki inspired cocktails without diving too deep into tiki theme. The Canopy Room above Jungle Bird is a great place to host a private event.
Elizabeth Burstein: Jungle bird cocktail is good! The sticky rice ball thing is meh
