About this restaurant

  • Great for happy hour
  • Lively
  • Great for creative cocktails
Iron Bar is a restaurant and bar situated right in the heart of New York City. While many restaurants claim to be "in the middle" of the city, Iron Bar is located just one block off of Times Square, the busiest place and in the center of the shopping and nightlife scenes. Even if guests just step in to get a drink, they won't be disappointed. Iron Bar has over 45 beers on tap and another 45 available in the bottle.To eat at Iron Bar, diners have two choices. If not feeling particularly hungry, guests can simply order some dishes off of the appetizer menu like crispy chicken wings, General Tso's calamari or Kobe beef sliders. However, if wanting to do a full meal guests will need to plan ahead and bring a minimum of 20 people. Iron Bar has pre-set pizza and barbecue menus for large parties.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Iron Bar offers a lively atmosphere, perfect for pre-theater meals. "Great vibe" and "excellent" food are frequent highlights, with a friendly staff enhancing the experience. While reservations can be problematic, the menu delights with items like Kobe beef sliders and wings. Ideal for sports fans, especially during Buckeye games.

    Food was great, but we were sat at a visibly dirty table. I’m not sure if this was during shift change, but there appeared to be only one server who walked past us several times without even acknowledging that we had been sitting there. We have been sitting there for a minimum of 10 minutes before anybody came over. However, after that, the food came out hot, the drinks were good. The food was very good. I would recommend the wings and the calamari was fantastic.

    Vibe, food and drinks were very good but be aware if your make a reservation. We got there on time and they said they had no room for us. 20 mins later we were about to leave and a table happened to be leaving so we were able to stay. We made a reservation and also confirmed it so if going before a show, this may not be the best place to go.

    My sister and I went for lunch before seeing a play. Our server Alex was excellent. His attention was outstanding. We had a wonderful conversation after our meal and his uplifting personality and thoughts made us so happy. The food was delicious and served fast and hot. Overall great place to visit and hope you get Alex as your server.

    Food was alright - had nachos, a salad, and three flatbreads shared at the table of 4 of us. Flatbreads were doughy and weren’t cut all the way through, they were just alright. Salad was very lightly dressed, and for a Caesar salad that’s the most important part. Service was good - a few servers working all the tables at the same time so everyone kept checking in. All in all not bad.

    Iron bar is conveniently located if you were attending a show in the theater district. However, do not expect good service. When we entered, there was no host to be found. Finally, someone came over and told us to sit anywhere. After selecting our table, the host, then yelled at us for selecting the “wrong table“. If this was going to be a problem, then they should have done their job. We then waited to receive menus, and then waited a significant amount of time before someone could take our order. The food was fair for the price, nothing special. It is very loud in the restaurant, so do not expect quiet conversation.

    Didn't order any food, but from what I saw it looked good. Hookah was smooth, drinks were well made. Service was a little slow but It was very busy and not a lot of servers so I understood. Overall great vibe/atmosphere
