Mandarin Oriental, New York

“Our group had a great experience at the Mandarin Oriental bar. The service really stood out—everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and on point the entire night. The staff made sure everything flowed smoothly and that we were well taken care of. The DJ was a dope vibe and fit the atmosphere perfectly, adding to the classy, speakeasy-style feel of the space. The drinks were also excellent, especially the Bangkok and Istanbul, which were both amazing. Overall, a fantastic experience with great service, great music, and great drinks. We would definitely come back again.” — Kerwin Arenas

“I really enjoyed this place! The atmosphere is great and the staff is super friendly. I tried the “Bangkok” cocktail and it was honestly excellent — perfectly balanced and full of flavor. You can tell there’s real care behind the drinks. I’ll definitely be coming back and I highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.” — Maicol Angelone

“My husband and I stopped by after our Valentine’s Day event while out for a walk, and it turned into such a lovely experience. We know it’s usually very hard to get in without a reservation, so we felt incredibly lucky that the bar coordinator was kind enough to accommodate us. We had a wonderful time and felt very well taken care of throughout the evening. The drinks were phenomenal, and the presentation was beautiful. Definitely recommend, and we look forward to coming back soon.” — Namira Morell
