    Great time during the Christmas season. Small cozy little place with adorable decorations and a warm atmosphere. We didn't have to leave our table for anything! Order from your table and everything was brought right to us

    Unable to order for too long since the website order system was absolutely atrocious. Never got water either. They cut out all the service and use only the app to request. Drinks are terrible not worth the price or the effort to make a reservation and come.

    We held a post-screening reception for my daughter's film that was part of the DOC NYC film festival. The crew at Ready Rooftop could not have been friendlier or more helpful. Our guests loved the venue and service was perfect. We ordered a bottle of champagne for the film crew to celebrate and the staff made it a major event with sparklers and a dramatic presentation. Special thanks to Jess for making everything go so smoothly.

    The IG pics made this place look great. It was lovely but didn't seem as nice as the pics. Perhaps a bit young as well. Servers were so so nice though. I don't think we would go back but it was worth checking out once.

    Shabby Chic gestylte Rooftopbar mit Selbstbedienungscharakter und überteuerten Getränken in Aludosen. Wer das mag ist dort aufgehoben, ansonsten gibt es weitaus bessere Baren in New York.

    Disappointed. Waited 20 minutes for cold deep-fried tortillas and cold shredded chicken tacos patrons near us were sitting at dirty tables for 1015 minutes; service was poor. We didn’t finish our drink or food and simply left after paying on the app and service were better and employees more attentive and food fresh this place could be worth its value. Plus given that we were there for anniversary kind of just end of the whole night on a bad note

    The $1 tacos for the happy hour menu were amazing. The margarita was also quite good. The first hostess on the street level floor was very helpful and friendly, but the upstairs hostess was rude and just a shade away from openly hostile.

    Hi, I had a party there on Saturday with a large group and overall we had a great experience however we were never told that we only had the table till 3, and one of the waitresses (brown hair) was very rude to us and only gave us 20 minutes notice before we had to leave. We had brought a cake and only gave us 10 minutes to eat it and we had to rush out. The waitresses was extremely rude and the way she handled it was very unprofessional. We should have gotten at least an hour notice so we have time to do the cake. Or since they knew we had a cake they should have brought it out wayyy beforehand than 15 minutes before we had to leave.

    Nice enough. Service was good, all servers & staff friendly, competent, & polite. Food was excellent, specifically the carnitas tacos. Great value during Happy Hour (carnitas is not part of happy hour) but the happy hour tacos were very tasty & filling. It’s a cute little place but we were expecting more of a view for being a rooftop place.

    $1 tacos were impeccable. They only had the chicken and mushroom available but they were spectacular the mushroom taco coming with lots of veggies Service is order and pay on the phone after scanning a QR code, with two runners bringing you drinks and food It’s efficient and you don’t have to flag a server down Margaritas were whatever … $9 happy hour premix is a little steep but the $1 tacos made up for that The music is loud and there’s not a lot of shade But colorful atmosphere and affordable rooftop option if you’re in the city

    We made a reservation for 12. When we got there, there was only enough seating for 9. I asked for more chairs and the worker refused to provide more seating and told us to stand. I suggested that be clear on the online reservation form and he told me flippantly “I mean, it’s a bar.” On top of that, drinks were super sweet and very basic for $20 a pop, and the food was just not up to par for the venue.
