Penthouse 808 at the Ravel Hotel

We went on a Saturday night with three of my girl friends. The crowd is definitely a mix. The views are great. The food is very good, but the drink I ordered sucked. I ordered their pacific sangria and I only had a quarter of a glass because it was filled mostly with ice and the little bit of sangria that was there was not good. My friend ordered strawberry mojito and hers was ok. Overall a nice place and I would go back there again.

The service was great, view was great of NYC, the food was delicious. My disappointment was how small the dishes were for both appetizers and the main dish. Me and my wife had in total 3 appetizers, 2 main dishes and a total of four cocktails, no desert. The bill came to $190 with tip automatically included. I found that to be very expensive and we left hungry.

Worst service I've had in a very long time. It too our waitress a very long time to come to the table to start. We asked her if we could switch tables to one that opened up right on the edge to get a better view. She said yes. A few minutes after we moved the hostess came over and made us switch back and lectured us like we had moved without permission. The waitress should have checked with the hostess if it is standard for certain tables to be reserved. Dont make your guests feel like they stole something. We had to ask for plates and sppons to share our second course. Many basic things that a good waiter would notice we needed to ask for instead of being offered.

The view was amazing. Food was fine, but not fantastic. Definitely a place banking off of the view and amiance instead of service and quality.

Love the view, got there right about 7:15 when the sun was setting. Beautiful !

Place was amazing!!! Our waitress Nicole was awesome! Great time and great place!!!!!!!

Penthouse 808 was really nice, somewhat off the beaten path, but well worth it. The food was excellent and the drinks were spot on. The price was rather high though, maybe a bit much for that spot. I would recommend this place to friends and even go back. It’s a great spot to see the city especially at night.

Way overpriced food and cocktails and the sushi rolls where a disappointment. The other food we had was good and the waitress was awesome.
The music when we arrived totally fit the style place with being lounge chill club type music. The band when we were leaving totally did NOT for the place as it was 1940’s style and they looked the part. Not sure would go back

The food is horrible! The view is beautiful. I don’t recommend

From the moment I walked in to the time I left, the staff was very pleasant. Food is excellent and you can't beat the views.

Absolutely loved the live music band and the beautiful views of Manhattan!
The food was delicious especially the lobster bake and the lava cake! Service was friendly and courteous. We will definitely be back for more :)

Very nice Sunday Brunch spot with live music.

This is a great spot for dating. Romantic view, lighting and ambience. It poured but the staff is expertly trained. Everyone is polite and professional. The food is delicious and the prices are great. I would definitely recommend this spot to everyone.

horrible food. they are either too salty or too sweet. music was too loud that I couldn't hear what my wife said. the view of Manhatten is very nice, and that is the only plus to the restaurant.

Service horrible, hot inside with no working A/C, Waiters with sweating cloth and running faces- disgusting. Eating our meal in a sauna like place. Beer was served warm in a bottle with no glass( apparently they don't have chilled glasses). Finally food was served, all together, appetizer & main course and still no glas to have a sip of beer on this humid hot day and no A/C ! Then you get a sip of you beer and it's warm! hello! what are you doing there?

It was excellent! Great view. Great ambiance. And the food and service were awesome

Had a problem a month ago
Manager still has not resolved.

Food and music was great

Overpriced Asian food, staff was VERY rude took our plates before we were done eating & tried to rush us so they can clear the floor I guess for the club part?? STOP taking reservations so late if there’s not enough time to eat & enjoy the overpriced dinner you’re serving! Great views but management sucks! Go where you will be appreciated for spending your $.

Ambiance and scenery are outstanding. Can get noisy with music playing, but the vibe is pleasant and the decor is worth it. Food was tasty and the service was good.

Gentlemen are not allowed to wear hats, which was confusing as it's a rooftop and it outdoor seating, but nothing having a nice hair cut won't fix.

Will definitely return on a summer night.

Made reservation prior. Ash for a table with a view ..took a while to fer one..move twice before I could get a suited one..

The view is amazing the food is delicious. Drinks is good but small. I think this place is good for tapas . Service is good and fast . Place is kind of pricey.

Bonito ambiente precios acorde al sitio bebidas un poco caras

Loved it !

The food and ambiance is great but the service is very poor. The waiters don’t come to the table that often and one of our main dishes came after 35 min.

Beautiful .. service was everything I would definitely recommend to everyone and also it’s beautiful for small parties wedding reception very romantic

Food was amazing, drinks were watered down. The waiter charged me for drinks that were already paid for at the bar. And i was charged for tap water. Experience wasn’t that great.

The service was lacking. We went when it just opened at 5 so no excuse. When the sun goes down is the best time to go b/c they open the roof and there is a breeze. Before that it is too hot and stuff. Happy hour drinks are at all seating but the food is not which I don’t really understand. The sushi was good, but not worth the price. All in all would only go back for the view.

The food was pretty good but the service was terrible. They were out of a ton of things, they didn’t accommodate food allergies well at all, and it took forever to get drinks. They have some kinks to work out but if you have food allergies/sensitivity’s, I wouldn’t recommend coming here.

Great atmosphere, awesome view of the city, and fantastic food. A great dining experience.

Wonderful place. We enjoyed it greatly. Excellent live music, beautiful view and seating. Totally worth the drive!

Great atmosphere. Food was pretty good. The view is amazing. Great for a date night. Really great place to eat.

Everything was perfect thank you Penthouse 808 for making my mom’s birthday memorable
The band playing tonight was a nice touch :)

Went here and the food was fantastic only thing is, is that the service was very poor. The waitress never acknowledged us unless we asked them first. On the receipt they charged us for a $28.00 "gratuity", we asked the manager about it and he said "There is nothing I can do it's a Groupon I can't change it." When we questioned him, he said it was in the fine print which it was not. He then tried to guilt trip us by saying, " This is how my waiters make their money. You don't want to tip my waiters." He then said he would make the gratuity $15.00 and that's as low as he could go, but when we got the receipt the gratuity was $18.00. Which at that point we gave up, payed and left.

I have to commend the staff at Penthouse 808, they contacted about my 3pm brunch reservation that wasn’t available and it had me somewhat skeptical about the restaurant being it was my first time there. But they accommodated my party and I couldn’t have asked for a better wait staff. They were amazing! It started with Bria the hostess who made sure we had a table. Our food was perfect, wait staff attentive and drinks were on point! Thank you Penthouse 808 for a wonderful birthday dinner.

The view was breathtaking and the service was excellent! The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

They gave us a complimentary glass of champagne for our anniversary

Food was average at best. Didn’t like the chicken and the pork was bland.

For 21st birthday

I went on Sunday for Brunch at 2:30pm (last sitting) first time for brunch and it was dead. I have been there at night and its fun but the ambiance for Brunch disappointed me.
They had a live band which it was nice but the music from the wedding upstairs was way better.
The food was good, the drinks also good. Service was a little slow because it looks like they were getting ready for Dinner but that was not a problem for us.
The view is very nice that is why i was expecting a fun brunch.
Unfortunately I will not be back for Brunch.

Beautiful place! Food was amazing! The crowd was perfect! But the service was horrible! The waiters didnt give us much attention!
