Somewhere to carry on the conversation after dinner: good drinks, room to talk, and no nightclub noise.
310 W 40th St (Aliz Hotel, 40th and 41st floors), Times Square
A two-floor cocktail bar high above Times Square from the Raines Law Room team, with city views and small open-air balconies. Seating is set up in small stations, so it stays easy to talk.
151 W 51st St, Midtown (across from Le Bernardin)
A relaxed wine bar from the Le Bernardin group, with more than 40 wines by the glass and small plates to share. It sits in corporate Midtown, so it works well for a calm glass after a client dinner.
25 W 28th St (Ritz-Carlton NoMad, 50th floor), NoMad
José Andrés' cocktail lounge on the top floor of the Ritz-Carlton NoMad, with plush seats and wide skyline views. It takes reservations and expects cocktail attire, so it stays a grown-up room.
Our rule of thumb for groups. Individual venues vary, so confirm when you call.
