Andrew CSeptember 23, 2016Quite cozy and small... made a reservation for 6, arrived early and hostess offered water as we waited outside (so nice!)!! Home fries are very tasty, lots of spices but overall food was delightful
Ava LuApril 12, 2011the service is great! 1st floor if you want to have a nice romantic dinner, 2nd floor is the bar :) you can have food there too! brooklyn flower is good (the drink)<3 3rd floor is combination of two.
Dylan LoweJune 23, 2012Beautiful, classy decor on the top floor of Hourglass. Musical instruments adjourn the walls. Cocktails with a touch of elegance. Wine categorised as 'voluptuous', 'indulge', 'sexy'. Wow.
Great pre- or post-theatre stop. Chill vibe, good cocktails, and excellent food. Make sure you try the mystery beer and shot for happy hour!
Nelly GalánJanuary 5, 2014Make sure to make a reservation it's a small place with three floors but fills up quickly. Food, drinks and service were so good. Would definitely go back.
Emily Rose DolanJanuary 16, 2014Chris on the third floor was lovely. Who knew our server was also a German- speaking somm? Had one the best pinot noirs I've ever tasted. Look forward to going back.

Mike LNovember 1, 2012Handmade lobster ravioli. Don't be deceived by the strong smell of the pecarino cheese because it tastes amazing.
John AApril 24, 2015Cute spot just off 9th Avenue for dinner or snacks. Lots of choices and decent prices for the area.
BettibarMarch 15, 2013If Bettibar is packed, check out the lounge on the 3rd floor or a quiet table in the original part of the Hourglass on the 1st floor!
Cute little place on Restaurant Row that is full of charm and nice folks! Great place for dinner and drinks!
Nicole SmithJune 23, 2012Beautiful little bar tucked away in the Heart of Hell's Kitchen. Try a French 77 or a Floradora - delicious!!! =D
Paul Martin KovicNovember 16, 2011I love it when the steak knife is not for the perfectly tender short rib but for the fresh and still crisp broccoli. Delicious!

"Locals haunt serving full menu from Hourglass Tavern at bar on 2. The kitchen hours vary by day but Bettibar on our second floor is open until 4 a.m. nightly!"

"A new, genuine, beautiful musical. It wouldn't matter if Idina Menzel, Anthony Rapp and LaChanze were in it, the show would be really good. But with them it's fantastic."
