MichaelJanuary 1, 2013Whiskey Sour here is the real deal! Rivals the noted mixologist of yore Terri F. Uses egg whites!
Excellent selection of whiskey, bourbon, + rye. Bartender Goran is the man.
Erika NonkenJanuary 9, 2014Pricey but high quality. Classy hipster vibe. I'll be back, when I've got some money in my pocket.
One of my favorite places to drink in NYC. Not all their bartenders are created equal though.
Bartender Joe is the man. Cocktails are excellent. Low-key vibe, great spot.
Thanhyen NguyenFebruary 11, 2012Get a drink from Rosser and talk for hours about booze and music - biscuits and gravy and their fries are #legit
Matt HantzSeptember 15, 2012If you like a smoky Manhattan, try the Hog Wild: bacon-infused bourbon, maraschino, sweet vermouth, bitters
Order the truffle grilled cheese and a Perfect Storm. You're welcome.
Karlsson's VodkaJuly 12, 2012Try the Ingrid Bergman cocktail - made with Karlsson's Gold Vodka, St. Germain, maple, lime, and cucumbers!
EileenJanuary 10, 2018Get the flatiron manhattan or uptown old fashioned. Pearadise city was too sweet
David ☕️ KleinNovember 29, 2014Skip Raines Law Room down the street and just grab drinks here. They're delicious!
Always gotta try at least 3 of the beers cause you don't know if they will be there the next day
Definition of ‘ehh’ but the choices are limited around here. The drinks are well made though!
Great cocktails, terrible food. Come for the drinks, leave when you get hungry.
Rumela DasJune 5, 2014Weekday lunch special is a good deal. Most of the sandwiches are quite good, but don't get the tacos with mahi mahi (they are extremely bland).
Kendal BoughtonAugust 2, 2013If you dig whiskey (of course you do), try one of their tasting options.
Ask for Kyle the bartender and he'll make you an amazing drink. And if not make it for you, certainly recommend something based on your mood.
BettyJanuary 27, 2013No better way to melt a girl's heart than a glass of Nostalgia with half a Pittsburgh sandwich. *Growl*
MetroSeeker.comAugust 20, 2011Our first reaction at the Rye House was "OMG! They have a bourbon float!" - We have not been disappointed! It's fantastic.
Garden fizz is a tasty gin drink with a little citrus and some nice egg white texture
- Caroline ChungApril 11, 2015After work, dinner or late night drinks. Does get uncomfortably crowded.
Brandon McGrawJune 23, 2012EaterNY calls the Lavender Sage Sling one of New York's best spring cocktails
Ashlee Fairey NeumanDecember 4, 2012The baroness, just delicious. But watch out.. the small glass goes down a little too easy.
Fantastic whiskey selection! Some of the best labels & obscure ones out there!
Nick RinaldiSeptember 24, 2011Their Bourbon and Rye based cocktails are some of the best around, try the Clara Bow.
Harvey SimmonsAugust 26, 2012Try to seat at end of bar (away from entrance) to see the drink making magic go down.

JesseJune 19, 2011The mixed drink menu.. kinda girly. But the sweet bartender girly will whip ya up something stronger to your liking if you ask for a recommendation.
Eric MarkowitzApril 19, 2011Best old fashioned ever. Get it with 4 roses single barrel. You won't be disappointed.
Justin DavisSeptember 18, 2010The Truffle grilled cheese is a must! Combined with seasonal beers and you have a meal fit for kings
