As stated on Instagram with the bar, no one answered the door even with a reservation. We were told they were open and then they said they were not.

If I could give 0 I would! I got to the place at my reservation time to be met with some weird looking guy holding a pizza pie on a platter in front the door. We said hello and proceeded to open the door and the man says the place is closed. I said how and we were able to make reservations. He claims we should’ve gotten a cancellation email. WE DIDN’T. My husband proceeds to open the door and says he wants to see for himself. The “general manager” as she claimed he was stated it was closed for a private event. Private events don’t happen spur of the mom they are planned. So the fact that I was able to make a reservation and made my way there on time and paid for parking is what really made me angry. And it was my birthday and this is where I wanted to end my night. Thankfully we found something cute nearby but that was such a turn off and I crossed them off my speakeasy list of places.

They took our reservation even when there was a private event host there. We couldn’t get it. It was pointless going that far.

Made reservations far in advance, traveled to get there just to be told there is a private party and the entire place is closed for the next two nights. Employee at the door then pressured us to go into the attached next door bar where service was slow, the place was empty, and three shots were $50. No thanks.

We had a reservation but there was an hour long line to get in regardless. We couldn’t get drinks at the spritz bar.. we’ve had great experiences at Spritz historically but this was frustrating.

To my friend to a show and sge enjoyed it. As 5 ladies did a great job. There's a different show every night, which is great. My second time I will visit again. I had the Spanish octopus from spritz, which wasn't all that flavorful but not bad.

The theming was off from what we read and understood it to be. It was a club, with no themed elements for the drinks and it was incredibly loud. Service was unsatisfactory.

Honestly, save yourself the stress and find a different bar. This place is a prime example of don't believe what you see on instagram, there were only 2 other tables seated when we came in and still there was a pretty long wait for two drinks. Oh and the drinks? It's so sad to say it's probably the worst thing I've ever tried, it tasted like dirty dish water with alcohol it was just so bad we couldn't even bare the thought of drinking more than a sip. @22$ a drink I had pretty high expectations and I was just so let down.

I was really disappointed in my experience at Jewel Thief. The best part was the atmosphere and look of the bar, after that, nothing was good. The service was exceptionally slow - we had a reservation, but it took them 15 minutes to find us a place to sit. Then, it took so long for a waitress to take our drink order, we started ordering at the bar. The drinks came out one at a time (after significant waiting), and weren't served as shown online. They were pretty drinks, but nothing spectacular. Many in my group ordered the One in a Billion and did not enjoy it at all. The DJ wasn't great, they kept stopping the music to get people to sing, they did that multiple times of just about every song. Lastly, the bill included excessive (20% or 22%) tip. For drinks that cost $22+ each and with slow service, I was prepared to pay about 10% ($2 or $3 per drink), but instead got stuck with an excessive bill. There was no way to enter my own gratuity and when I asked I was waived off.

The cocktails were really good, and so was the service. However, please note you need to specifically ask for the smoky boxes and there is nothing on the menu indicating that. The crowd is either NYC transplants stuck in 2016 fashion trends or 35-40year olds who still think snapbacks are hot. So, if that’s ur crowd, power to you.

This place was a complete disappointment. This place advertises having fancy cocktails that are delivered in smoking glass diamond votives and treasure chests and when I went none of that was the case. I asked the service to bring me any drink that had a fun presentation and she just brought me a purple drink in a coupe glass. Definitely did not live up to the hype and I would definitely choose someplace else next time.

I didn't eat here, but it was a lot louder/party atmosphere than I realized it would be on a Saturday night at 10pm. I thought I was making a reservation for a sit down experience (there weren't tables/chairs reserved etc). It was more like a bar/club. It was still fun though, just depends what you are looking for!

Drinks are way too sugery and are $25 and taste so cheap. The cocktail waitress was slow, rude and forgetful. My friend and I didn’t even drink our drink, paid over $50 still tipped 20% but the waitress just dropped our check off and picked it up without even looking or saying a word. Waste of time and money.

What the jewel thief advertises and what it really is couldn’t be more different. The bouncers made us wait until our entire party was present and proceeded to take us into a completely empty establishment. To make matters worse, they showed us a private room and then told us we couldn’t stay there because there was a private event happening. It was a sad version of the images they show online. A compete disappointment.

Great experience, very picturesque. Drinks are very strong so I was a little disappointed they didn’t have any light bites, only cocktails. I was surprised to see the entrance wasn’t hidden at all as it was portrayed that way online. Our waitress wasn’t too knowledgeable of the menu; However she was new. Overall I had a lot of fun.

Made reservations two weeks in advance and about 12 Hours before my reservation the owner called to inform me that he had booked the place out for a private event and could no longer accommodate my booking. Probably not booking here again.
