The DL Best Rooftop Lounge NYC

We bought tickets which included the check in on the website. When we came there, they charged us $10 per item which was so weird. First they state that the check in for clothes is included in the ticket and then they charge for it on spot. The party was supposed to be til 6 am and they kicked everyone out at 4am. The drinks and decorations were nice.

I attend a special event for Gay Pride, The Bliss party. Everything about the day/evening was spectacular. The staff was amazing. The event organizers were great and security was awesome. Each person I had contact with, that was involved with putting this on, was so great. Shout out to, Irene. The space was nicely done, especially the rooftop area. The food was amazing. I recommend this place for events, or just a great dinner. I recommend the Pork chop, NY Strip, and Trout. Dinner on Ludlow is spectacular.

I attended a private event and while the hosts of the event made sure the atmosphere was great, the service was subpar. The bartenders tried their best to keep up, however, the drinks were not full. It’s not about the price as you expect to pay a decent price for a drink ($21 w/mandatory gratuity included) but the glass was not full.Another caveat, it was very muggy after a rain. There needs to be more air conditioning along with fans. Coupled with a full house, everyone was HOT. I was told that it was not sealed; when it rained, it rained outside.Also, is there wheelchair accessibility? There are a lot of stairs and no elevator access.

Had our holiday party here on the 2nd floor. Definitely a great space for large groups. DJ was accommodating, great layout! Food and drinks were very tasty! Would definitely go back.

9/7/24 two black door guys wouldn’t let us in because we casually said “well that’s stupid” to demand us to walk around thru a totally empty rope of a lines down the block. As in zero people in line, “hey you go down and walk thru these ropes.” Said to call the bank if we wanted our 100 dollar tickets refunded. Apparently only people he knows are only allowed to go in without tickets. As we saw a few of his friends go in without proof of tickets. I suppose we were not supposed to witness this. Hire better people or continue to lose money.

The decoration of this rooftop bar and restaurant is wonderful and amazing. Look classy from the first floor with tons of chandelier and as you go up until the rooftop is more casual but also very nice. I dont really pay much attention to food and service because I focus on party and entertainment. I dont have any problems about the service yet so this review just on my experience at this place.

I came here for my friends bday party. The entrance was not difficult and they also provide coat checks. The dance floor is nice and also fun music. The drinks is also very tasty and order a lot. We also reserve a table and the guards are pretty strict not letting other people enter which is nice. The bathroom is terrible but overall a nice place for fun

I came here on a Friday night and the vibes were great. The drinks were descent and of course Manhattan priced, but the DJ and atmosphere made it worth while.I will say there are a ton of steps up to the roof so make sure you are prepared for that. I witnessed someone trip, but thankfully they or no one else was hurt.If you want to dance this is a great place. There are also VIP tables in the back.

The food was good well seasoned well plated and came out 🔥

It’s a pretty good event space, I came here for an event so I can’t speak to the club but it was really spacious and pretty. The staff was really nice as well and had good drinks

Didnt try the rooftop lounge, but the street level restaurant, Le Jardin Bistro, was excellent. The escargot and onion soup were amazing, as were the Steak Frites and Cassoulet. Would definitely return, with or without a Groupon.

Such a vibe! The DJ was on point, food was great, drinks flowing. $65 for a brunch. Open bar for 2 hours. Felt like Sunday Rooftop before Covid 19. They have the necessary Covid precautions while you enjoy your time around people. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Will revisit throughout the summer months.

I wanted to go here with a group of 8 (7 guys 1 girl) of my friends for my birthday. On their website they allow you to reserve a table and since we had a large group of us I wanted to be proactive and get a table to ensure we got in. We get on line and the bouncer redirects us to a woman with an iPad who deals with the reservations. I gave her my name and she told me there was no reservation for that night. Then another employee came over and told us that the kitchen was closed so the tables are no longer offered. This was at 12:20am. I was upset but said okay and my group went to go back onto the line. The employee told us that all of the guys had to pay the $45 cover charge except for the one girl with us. I was again upset since I had a reservation online but still got back to waiting on the general line instead. We got to the front, the bouncer was going to let us in, when that employee came back over, whispered something in his ear, then told us we had to get off the line. Meanwhile they were still letting others in both who were in front and behind us. When trying to ask why we couldn’t go in they would not give us a reason and told us to leave. We left and I do not plan on going back again. I just wanted to have a nice night with my friends for my birthday.

This place is a wonderful rooftop lounge! 🥂 The DL has a great ambience 🎶 and is beautifully decorated! 🛋️ This spot is perfect for a party 🎉, corporate event 💼, or meetup! 🤝 I wish I came here more often!

I went last night for my birthday, got a table for 10, and the birthday bash bottle package. The music was great, space was beautiful!! The sliders were amazing. There was an issue with another customer coming into our section aggressively but it was handled amazingly by our server who i believe was paige. Price for the package was exactly what was listed. Definitely hope to go back!!

Very aesthetically appealing inside, the rooftop floor is definitely the best part of the space. I’d say around $20 for a drink which is OK for NYC, however, the drinks weren’t 100% worth the price. Lastly, I went around 10pm, and it was pretty empty for a Friday night. Very nice for a chill night out but not so much for a super fun time.

Went here for an R&B day party. It was O.K. Really nothing to write home about. The bar was beautiful and you didn’t have to wait for your drinks for too long. The staff were friendly and the host was warm and inviting. One patron was falling down drunk however security rushed over to help him up & ushered him to safety. They didn’t make a whole “scene” about it. There were not a lot of places to take scenic photos so you had to get creative and find your own hidden gems with enough lighting. The Dj’s were good enough however Im learning that these “young” Dj’s really don’t know how to mix/blend songs. The Dj’s literally play a song & cut it off bluntly without setting up the next song to blend seamlessly into their next selection. They also didn’t have a great grasp of what R&B is lol. They played EVERYTHING from Reggae, Afrobeat, Rap and BET CLASSICS LOL (Bands). All in all it was a good time, very moderately crowded with enough room to not feel smothered when you danced. Also note the restrooms are UNISEX w/a bathroom attendant.

Went during late night when it is a club so cant speak to the food. There was a line but it moved quickly, didnt see anybody get turned away. Drinks were way overpriced but thats NYC for ya. At first the DJ was bad but they switched out and the second guy was way better. Crowd was okay, lot of dancing but too many people pushing you to the point that it made me want to leave. Not a horrible night, just not great.

A great place if you know how to have fun. They also do events here with a little of this and that. I remember the Bolivian marching band I met in the bathroom once here. Came out a changed man. Hair slick backed, sweating like the Turkish baths. Never did get the fellows name who offered his wares.

It’s aight, drinks aren’t the priciest, but you never know if it’s gonna be a day everyone gets in for free or if it is a day the bouncers decide one person in the group having only a pic of her ID means no one gets in. Music is ok, regular pop club stuff. Rooftop is nice but small

This wonderful establishment that has 3 floors of energizing music for everyone to do their typical 2 steps or act like that cool person who you would find on SoulTrain or purchase one of DL drinks and smooth talk that special person. Whatever you desire, you will have fun at this rooftop place. The place has a tropical look, so I am guessing it suppose to represent that summertime feel; it worked because I didnt realize it was drizzling outside. I know this place must be a wonderful place to visit during summer 2014, so I know I will be back soon.Today was a day for unexpected rain, but it is okay because Yelper knows how to party and represent a company the right way. Let dig deeper and explore this spot out. The staff is fantastic and makes awesome drinks that hard to refuse to get one more. What did they put in the drink? Man, I just dont know. If you are a smoker and you want to hang outside to smoke a Newport, I strongly recommend you to visit the 3rd floor where to enjoy the life of the party. IF you need that smoke break, there is a section for smokers too.The food tastes great and that I will not big up everywhere because no one can beat my mothers cooking. I took a bite into the mini cheeseburger, and boom, two hands already want to grab more. The spring rolls are wonderful too that I needed to know if I am in a Thai restaurant and not at a party. Checking, checking... Nope, it is the DL spot! One more drink please, I love this place.The staff are quite helpful and look to answer any questions you may have. So do not get shy now, because if you are, go grab another drink and come back once you see rainbow-colored flowers. We trying to get twisted, sing Bob Marley songs, and yelp!How would I rate this place:I would rate this place 10/10 base on todays event. They dont have a cover charge, which can be better than that! We are jamming!

Bartender on the 2nd floor refused to pour me fresh tap water, told me I could pour myself water from an open carafe that was sitting on the bar top all night….?Very strange, unsafe practice for a club.There are much better places in the area to party, with better bartenders!!Security on the line however 10/10 very professional and kept the crowd under control

Note: I contacted management via email and I have not recieved a response in over a week, so Ive decided to go ahead and share my experience here -We purchased a VIP package and spent $787 at the DL for Bliss days 2024, and we feel like we were scammed and treated like garbage by the DL staff. We had to hunt down servers to serve us and waited 3+ hours for food.Breakdown of Cost:We purchased a VIP Package for $197 VIP ticket+ $450 minimum + 20% gratuity + tax for a total cost of $787This is our 3rd time coming to this event, and this will be the last if it’s hosted at the DL again. Most of our issues were with the staff and service at DL.The package was a lie -Last year, we purchased a VIP table, which included an open bar from 2 to 4 p.m. and a free bottle with no minimum. This year, they didn’t let us in until 2:40, so happy hour was cut down to 1 hour and 20 minutes. It was not an open bar; they had 12 water-downed preselected drinks, half of which were not available, and there was no free bottle included.We were told that individually purchased drinks did not count towards the minimum and that it would not be brought to the table. That only bottle service (which started at $300) and food would count towards the minimum. So we decided to order a lot of food….to be told we can’t order food until 5:30 pm…. So we decide to dance from 4pm -5:30pm and then…….The staff gave our table away –We were given a yellow wristbands and were told that we could go dance and our table would be reserved. We came back, and people were sitting at our table. The staff didn’t believe us despite us sitting there for hours prior, showing our emailed tickets and our “special” yellow and teal wristbands. It wasn’t until a male guest sitting next to us assured the staff that it was our table that they believed us and gave us our table back.We came back to our table at 5:30 pm, and the servers served the other tables and have yet to come to us. After 45 minutes, I got up to find a server, the servers were standing in a corner on their phones, to ask for service.Our food did not come for another 1.5 hours, and they dropped the chicken lollipops (fine mistakes happen) and never brought our bucket of beer. Then, an hour later, I went to find a server (in the same corner) to let them know we were missing food and drinks…I had to prove to them that I ordered these items, and it took another 1.5 hours to get them. Did I mention that gratuity was mandatory? By the way the chicken lollipops were literally chicken tenders on lollipop sticks (see photos).We purchased a $30 bottle of Chandon for $150 bottle service. Not to mention those poor bottle girls look like they would rather die than be there. The plastic champagne glasses were foggy, scratched, and still had lipstick stains on them. In addition, the VIP tables and chairs were disgusting, stained, and dirty.

So my party of 13 and I had dinner here for my besties brida shower. The food was amazing, the service was really great and Thom was super responsive to all my emails and prep in the days leading up to our soirée.After dinner we made our way to the 2nd floor and rooftop. Such fun. The DJ’s on each floor played al the best music.Highly recommended

Came here for my birthday last week. paid for the bottle service Birthday Bash not worth it! during this summer time VIP is not even worth the price. its too hot they dont provide fan in the VIP section, once youre seated and served they will never check on you again, all server ladies are not friendly. they will give the birthday service sign right away without you knowing, all groups with us that time complain and look for manager but cant be found. PLEASE PLEASE DONT COME HERE its good if you go for quick party but not in VIP/Bottle service NOT WORTH THE PRICE! its better to go in 230fifth rooftop bar cool and nicer.

This is such a beautiful nightout spot! It doesnt seen much from outside but the 2nd and 3rd floor is all party. 2nd floor requires special access but the 3rd floor is an indoor roof top with all glass and glass high ceilings. The whole entire place has live plants hanging with trees and vines. It feels like I walked into a magical indoor garden. The DJ was amazing and the music was so good. Drinks are standard NY price. A great night out spot. Everything is so beautiful!

Tonight was the @QuietEvents 🎧 party on the 2nd floor. It was packed at around midnight. Open Rooftop with AC!!! Awesome spot to dance, chill or have a drink. The rooftop doesnt event feel like one as they have access blowing on you making any night perfect!

DO NOT GO HERE! They will scam you into paying $45 dollar per person if you are not with any girl. They make up random prices to scam the tourists!

The DL is hands down the BEST spot in NYC. Always make it a point to go there every Friday & Saturday night and each night never disappoints. Best atmosphere, best music and best people. If you haven’t, please make it a priority to check out the DL.

The ambience is nice, however its very expensive so keep that in mind.

Bouncers are too extremely rude and old to be that strict with footwear. Men get in with the dirtiest of sneakers even though the website says no athletic wear. The footwear policy only seems to apply to women but as a young woman I wouldnt bother with this place. The crowd is as old as the geriatric bouncers they have screening the entrance.

Went for a bachelor party and the place was dope. Good music, lots of people without being overcrowded, and the drinks were strong. Overall a good experience!

Was here for a friends birthday in a private section with bottle service. It was really hot in there but the rooftop was open and it was a hot night.Vibe seemed pretty cool in there but we really only stuck to our private section. Music was pretty good. Id come back!

Crowd is young later in the night but everything is amazing. The staff and Manager at the restaurant downstairs are 5 star 🌟 Will be going back for their service and food.

Bouncer turned me away for platform shoes that were never mentioned on the website as not allowed meanwhile the line of men next to me all got in with dirty sneakers. Bouncer said “how else would they get in without dirty shoes.” whatever that means

Great place nice ambiance!! Drinks and food is amazing highly recommend!!

Had tickets last night 12/14/24 got there and was told its a private affair and was turned away. What a waste of time. Took me 20 minutes to find parking not to mention I had a daye

Promo said FREE shots before 11pm. Showed up at 10:35 pm, they did not honor it, gave us the runaround.DJ lost sound 5 times in like 90 minutes. Incredibly hot, incredibly disappointing

I havent a clue because security denied is entry, saying theres a footwear policy. Apparently, I need two straps on my sandals. He also claims we were late despite arriving an hour and a half before closing. Dont bother with that crowd. Take your money somewhere else. It was a girls birthday celebration that we took to the beach, we got to save our food and bottle money, but we were not able to retrieve the money we spent on skipping the line.

Great spot for some fine French nibbles. We had the tuna tartare, the escargot and the foie gras. All were excellent.

Hey, I had a blast. One of the best clubs ever.

Bouncer dude wouldn’t let us in even though we had tickets cause we were 5 dudes. Don’t go here. Many others dope places.

Great establishment. Doorman is a great person. Love coming here

Good event space. The Prohibition Productions Mardi Gras event was incredible! The bar was decent and 3rd floor was well ventilated. The 2nd floor room became soupy with lots of dancers.

Went back here this past weekend. The vibe was different. The bartenders were extremely rude and I saw them drinking behind the bar, the drinks they made were horrible and watered down. They paid little attention to us. Definitely showed us they weren’t interested in our business. Very unlike the last time we went. Me and my large group won’t be going back ever again.

When I saw the negative comments here, I was stuck between whether or not, but we finally made our decision... we went there for 3 people for the beginning of the years night, we paid at the door for the entrance and the open bar. The employees were friendly and they were sincere, the atmosphere was very good, the atmosphere on each floor is different, different music! It was just a little too crowded because of the beginning of the year.

Amazing ambiance and atmosphere truely avante garde

Very disappointed. The security guards were very rude and the place was extremely crowded even though the entrance fee was expensive.

Nice and spacious rooftop in heart of The LES. Always a fun time when I visit here

My night ruined by some rude despicable staff. The bouncer at the entry is just the rudest. Instead of worrying about or interacting the customers and get drinks out I saw drinking behind the bar. Bartenders were extremely rude acting without a care in the world for me. Im just trying to enjoy my time out and have a good time. But if this is how this place is going to be i will not be returning.Management certainly needs to address this.

Nice venue, not very big, but its nice. Outside area for smoking.

Love this place!) great neighbors . always great music!) also just amazing burgers downstairs))

Probably my third time giving this place a try and i must say every single time my experience has been absolutely unacceptable. The first time coming here they denied us entry because my friend was wearing jeans while the same bouncer was letting other people in right in front of us with jeans. Biased maybe but we’ll overlook it. The second time we came our friend had a table and the same bouncer would not let us in and forced us to buy our own table despite the club being completely dead. An absolute blasphemy of an experience despite us willing to pay top dollar for some decent treatment but being forced and pressured otherwise. i literally will not write a bad review EVER but tonight was the third strike. THIS SAME BOUNCER has the audacity to disrespect myself and my friends on our outfits when he himself is wearing an outfit unfit to represent the atmosphere the club is “trying” to promote. This bouncer was trying to charge us a $60 cover fee while letting the people behind us come in for free right before my eyes. Ill pay whatever price if necessary but when its like that blatantly unfair right in front of me i need to speak up. I expressed that i was more than willing to pay more than the cover fee to have a good night but instead i was met with “i cut a deal outside so because of that im getting kicked out.” Treat people like actual human beings. I didnt come out to have my night ruined by some rude despicable staff that have no regard for any type of decency in treating people for just trying to have a good time. In no way was i ever disrespectful. Management certainly needs to address this. I strongly advise anybody coming to this establishment to beware of this specific bouncer who seems explicitly hostile against people he thinks he can take advantage of. If the management wants to contact me to address this issue please do.

DJ Dippa absolutely sucks and plays the same 6 songs and doesnt know how to transition. Please hire better DJ talent there’s so many local to NYC

Went on Saturday, Dec 23, so maybe my experience wasnt the norm, but it just wasnt the vibe for me. The music was so outdated (2000s-2010s). Only the top floor and rooftop terrace were open. Drinks were so watered down, and they were still charging nearly $20 per drink. There were noticeably sus guys there too, so thats something to consider (dont go alone ladies!). The only thing going for this place are the decor and the nice staff. Probably wont come back.

The DL is the place to go for a night out in the city. The Staff is great, especially Garvin

They wont serve you tap water, search you thoroughly, and even have at least one BATHROOM SINK GUARD so youre forced to buy their overpriced bottled water. I bet they close the outside area when its raining in case anyone would drink rain water too.I encourage you to bring in some wet shirts so you can wring them out over your mouth. Quick, before they catch on to that too!Music: Mostly bad pop and old hitsScenery: Great on 3rd floorGets overcrowded.

I’ve been to the DL a couple of times, but my 3rd time there absolutely ruined my perception of this place, their management and their service. I came here in early December with a large group of my friends to continue my birthday celebration. The bouncers let a few of my friends in first. Then, they proceeded to let in a group of white guys who were wearing hats. However, when another set of my guy friends, who are Black, tried to enter, they proceeded to say they needed to take their hats off and pay to check the hats. I’ve never heard of an establishment where they make you pay, I believe $10 or up, to check a hat. When my guy friends called out that they let the white group in without making them check their hats, the bouncers and management tried to make a scene and even threatened to call the cops on my friends for being upset. It is completely inexcusable, they made my friends extremely upset & ruined my birthday. They will never receive another dime from me, and the vibes inside aren’t even that great to begin with.

The line and ID check line are a little confusing. The music is just okay. You can book space here, which is super nice. There is air conditioning.

Great place to party in NYC!! Workers here were very professional and the experience was fantastic.

Ratchet and they charge you for a normal night plus all of the cocktails are $20 or more. I will never come back.

Personally not for me. The place itself was very pretty inside but all the music was from 2015. I could hear the sound of people talking over the music. The bathrooms were actually ok and somewhat clean. Idk maybe it wasn’t the right vibe FOR ME but I didn’t have a good experience because of the scene. This isn’t really the fun dancing place I hoped it would be

Best place I’ve ever been too!!

Terrible place! My boyfriend and I were going in when it opened to have a drink since it was birthday. It opened at 5:30 and we went in around 5:45 and they just stared at us. The Bouncer tried squaring up to my boyfriend and was asking what his problem was because we just walked in thinking it was a regular restaurant. We were very confused and stated we just wanted to eat and get drinks. He then said “that’s fine I just want to know what his problem is”, as there was no problem from the beginning as we just wanted FOOD AND DRINKS. We didn’t even know it was a lounge or club as we were just wanting to sit at the bar that is on the first floor to relax since we were walking all day. At this time my boyfriend asked the manager that was staring and watching the whole thing if we could just sit at the bar and grab a drink and appetizer, but I was already so turned off by the fist initial greeting we decided to leave.If I could give 0 stars I would. The disrespect that was shown and none of the other workers/managers saying anything was very disappointing.I never write reviews but this is one that needed to be put out there. Do better, and treat people better.

They try to charge me $45 for a free event lol what a joke

Le Jardin offers an enchanting dining experience that perfectly balances sophistication with comfort. From the moment you step through the door, you’re greeted with a warm ambiance, lush greenery, and impeccable service that sets the tone for the meal ahead.The food is nothing short of extraordinary. The menu showcases a thoughtful selection of dishes that celebrate fresh, seasonal ingredients. The [specific dish, e.g., Truffle Risotto] was a standout—rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. Another highlight was the [specific appetizer or dessert, e.g., Crispy Duck Salad], which was perfectly balanced and beautifully presented.When it comes to drinks, Le Jardin doesn’t disappoint. Their signature cocktail, [e.g., The Garden Bloom], was a refreshing mix of [ingredients], and the wine list offers a well-curated selection to complement any meal.Overall, Le Jardin is a place where every detail is considered, making it ideal for a romantic evening, a celebration, or simply treating yourself to an unforgettable culinary journey. I can’t wait to return!

Roxy was amazing, she made our anniversary more special. Normally I would be skeptical to come here for such an occasion but my partner wanted something different. I love the beets salad and the halibut was delish. Thank you Roxy you re the actual icing on the cake for this experience

This place was garbage I went and paid to see some dancers there that are fairly famous and the show was unorganized and it sucked theres a bunch of 20 year old drunk and getting high all night I emailed like five times asking what the dress code was if we could wear sneakers and they acted like they were upscale talking about you needed to dress really up and wear no sneakers and t-shirts with words on it as soon as I walk in all I see is a bunch of bum kids with t-shirts and sneakers on I wasnt happy I wouldnt recommend this place to anybody I asked about VIP and they told me it was $2,000 when I got the place they told me it was $250 these people have bad management. Not sure why anybody would want to perform there

I attended Jardin de Reggaeton event by Three Day Weekend! I loved and enjoyed the music very much. Although, it got packed very quickly. Drinks were good, and the ambient was excellent. We will definitely be back for another of their events.

Now.... I came to eat and then party but it was early atcthe DL to party lol....The secure is beautiful FIRST OFF!!! Yall ladies was BOMB and security they was cute lol....This is 3 floors ....Downstairs is where you done and they have a really cute bar. The velvet and colors with the crystal chandeliers gives it a little sexy sexy too it.I got the STINGER cocktail & 2 glasses had me feeling it okkkk Maybe 3 lol.....The appetizers was okay!The chicken on the stick 3/5 great coating but really no chicken was inside lol the spicy sauce was good too.The shrimp tempura 2/5 too much batter the shrimp was good tho but I think a tweak on this recipe wont hurt....Guacamole was 3/5 need more authentication to it I guess but the chips were okay...Entree: 1/5 My steak was not tender and I ordered a medium.... fries were fried great but the sauce also was not great tasting.If the menu is updated Im coming back to try cause i really enjoyed myself overall!!!

AirPod got stolen by someone working at the bar, the owner is extremely rude to patron. Do not recommend.

So I just went here last night and ordered drinks only to find later that the bar tender added their own tip even after I handed them money in cash. Recommendation being cash cause they’ll scam

4 stars cause they charged my man $60 for wearing ripped jeans, it didn’t state that on the website and they didn’t care to give me an explanation about that.Nonetheless the music was great.A promoter was really nice and letting us cut the line without paying some kind of fee.The drinks were watered down as well.

One of my favorite spots to hang with friends and unwind great music fun memories two floors of music to captivate the youth in music lovers food (a beautiful stylish restaurant friendly staff ) on the first floor

Good place for a quick drink. Nice rooftop atmosphere and upstairs area to go out and take a breather maybe smoke if you want come back inside and dance.

Bouncers were insanely rude to both me and my friends and extorted money off the both of us. Don’t recommend this place at all.

Had an amazing time here. There was a line to get in we got there after 11 pm, we were a large group and were accommodated quickly and skipped the whole line haha. Paid like $500 or $600 to get in but that came with drinking tickets, came out to about 40 per person. Dance floor was crowded but the vibe was right. Music was great , a little bit of everything. I love to dance and here I danced the entire night.

Amazing atmosphere, great vibes in the LES

Had a very strange experience with the bouncers here. It’s basically like what the other 1 star reviews say. Bouncers are expected to act a bit tough I guess, but being rude to customers seems like a strange business model? Anyways I just went somewhere else instead. I don’t think they care because they seem to funnel people in despite it not being a popular place for locals to return to. I doubt they will try to improve anything, so don’t be surprised if the same thing happens to you.

They understandably wouldnt let me dance on the couch. it was a great halloween

The food was great, in regards to drinks only had rum punch it was good. Other than that issues I had was: coed bathroom, menu not what was advertised, brunch didnt start on time, they seemed confused during check in process, had to walk up to many stairs to get to roof (no elevator access) and on the promotion says birthday person free bottle of champagne and when we get there they said its for group of 10! Not cool. But its a nice spot.

Best club in nyc, had a great time

Had a great time. great spot

I wish i could give this place a zero. The bouncer at the entry is just the rudest one i have seen in a long time. He let some guys ahead of me go in in tank tops, because he said, ‘imma let you in cuz you are with this lady.’ And when i got to the front, he just made me step out of the line to the side because i was in a sleeveless shirt. I get there is a dress code that i wasn’t aware of, but he could have asked nicely. Also i disliked the double standards because he did let someone in just because he was with a lady that this bouncer wanted to be ‘nice’ to.Advice - wear a sleeved shirt and go to another bar. Or don’t wear a sleeved shirt and go to another bar.

Food was super mid, nothing tasted particularly good and the restaurant was utterly deserted (albeit, it was a Thursday night). Came with a pulsed coupon to find every cocktail more than the coupon value and all but two of the entrees. Would have loved to check on this before but the Google photos menu is totally out of date and the website information is non-existent. A lesson in voucher dining and plenty of good reasons to not bother coming here again.

Great time! Nyc finest

The place is very glamorous and stylish, the bartender was very attentive and the drinks were fabulous. Will go back to try the food the next time.

One star for G who really tried to help. Walked in with a group of 7, 45 mins before close and was told not worth buying a table and we could sit wherever there was seats - it was EMPTY. Maybe like 10 ppl max (Saturday Night) in the venue. “Manager” gave us a hard time about sitting in the empty seating areas. We left. Very rude and condescending. We were probably there 10 mins. Group was prepared to order drinks on a tab (was communicated at front door) and instead was very turned off by the service and experience. Never returning again.

Lovedddd the place and food. The Bar and Dance floor are the major plus points. Weekends are lit to be here.

Fantastic ambiance. Will be back

Really hot on the first floor. Their AC should be fixed.

Went here for a friends birthday, their rooftop lounge is enclosed and good for a party. They have tables in the back next to the DJ which are amazing. The vibe is tropical with all the plants they have in there, so feels special in NYC.

Met up with a friend in the city yesterday and we wanted to have a drink on a rooftop and grab something to eat. Decided to come here, and immediately regretted it. We walked in and we’re the only two customers in the entire building. The man that greeted us claimed to be the owner (not sure if he actually was), and was friendly at first but immediately turned to creepy. He did not have a concept of personal space, he was extremely touchy, he sniffed my hair several times, he attempted to kiss my friend, and would just not leave us alone despite us telling him to stop. He seemed to be super drunk, or under the influence of something, slurring words, making no sense, and just being overall creepy. He also dropped racial slurs multiple times while talking to us, despite being a white man. We eventually found another employee and explained to him how uncomfortable we were, and he escorted us away from the owner and out to the street. We didn’t even wait for our food or drinks because of how badly we wanted to get out of there. I don’t recommend this bar to anyone, especially young girls or people of different races. Big shoutout to that other employee that helped us though, he was the only good part of our short time here.

$60 covers to get in, which was not worth. They had dance floors on both the second floor and the rooftop. There was a nice breeze when we were on the rooftop floor from the open rooftop. The place was quite crowded when we went on a Saturday night. I wasnt a huge fan of the music, as there werent a lot of songs I recognized and the music felt hard to dance to.

Trendy hipster bar, but the food was great and the atmosphere was lively. I was there around 4 PM – things started to get a little busy, I’m sure it would be great for lunch and on a sunny day. Would definitely return.

I don’t write reviews about anything but the vibes and my time here last night was something i wouldn’t want anyone else to experience or spend money on. Genuinely, the worst club i’ve ever been to in NYC. The drinks were cheaper than most other clubs, but the crowd was terrible. Just a bunch of dudes looking at the girls here like they were cheeseburgers or something. You’ll see guys leaning up against the bar like they’re on the bench waiting to be put into the game. Every time i accompanied my girlfriend to the bar or bathroom without fail a handful of older men would try to touch or say something to her with me inches away— didn’t even feel like there was actual human beings in here. We knew it was time to call it a night when the last time trying to get through the crowd to our group I had to grab my girlfriends arm out of a random man’s grip. Seriously terrible, they need to be more particular about who they let in here, really just feels like every bro from Jersey City took the train and got off at the line for this club for whatever reason— so if that’s your crowd, go have a blast.

Started off on a party bus. Ended up at DL. DL is a very diverse crowd and I absolutely loved that! We all had a very enjoyable night!

The black man who may be the manager whoever he is, is ignorant and bigoted to his own people. He didn’t let my friend in a black woman in because she had flats on, then proceeded to let a number of white women who had strappy flat backless sandals on. He spoke over her, didn’t even let her speak. Basically trying to put on a show. I have never been treated such away at any club, and I am truly disgusted that this stuff is still happening in 2023, of course by Black people we live in New York at completely diverse environment and to treat people like this is a level of disgusting is not fathomable. Black people, and even people of color DO NOT COME HERE THE STAFF IS DISGUSTING.

That free guest list is fake. That is their way of getting you to pay 60 dollars to get in. Head of security is fake as well as the security guard letting you in is not a security guard as he said. Dont waste yor time

Terrible experience. had friends there last night and multiple girls were hit in faces and body. Security was trash, standing there doing absolutely nothing. My life and multiple people’s life were in danger that night. Do not come here unless ur willing to risk ur life by some trashy club.

Bouncers (2 of them working friday night) are extremely rude/unprofessional & on a power trip. took my (23 y/o) ID & refused to let me in even though i’m well over age. refused to even scan it & kept being rude to me & my boyfriend. i had to call the cops to get them to scan it in front of them but they got an even bigger power trip after i mentioned that. kept saying that i shouldn’t have called the cops (to literally scan my ID AND do these bouncer’s job for them since they refused to do it in the first place- i’m suspecting they knew it was real too but wanted to harass us for some reason) because now there’s NO way they’ll let me in. our friend had to pay them extra to stop harassing us & let us in- all OF AGE AND paid for tickets that night.absolutely terrible treatment by these bouncers.

Great atmosphere, decent food wit some different changes in menu they could adjust, DJ is on point, drinks is too expensive to be watery, fountain orange juice is horrible for drinks and they need wristbands for reentry being it cost 20 and balcony can become overcrowded. Also need better wine selection lite pinto grigio.

Possibly the worst club Ive been to around the world. I tried to look at this objectively since the music and drinks were mid, so that was alright, but the overall vibe of the staff and the bartenders was so incredibly wack -without any sort of provocation - that I will never even be getting close to this establishment. I literally ENTERED the building, and I guess I reminded them of someone they didnt like or something but they threatened to call the police on me. Like, literally didnt even open my mouth. Crazy stuff. Ended up fine but it was wack.

Very helpful and we had a good time

DO NOT COME HERE! A fight broke out last night and security did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! People hurriedly exited the club because of the fight and it was CHAOS!! My fried got pushed and bust her head open😒! The negligence of management was absolutely through the roof!!

Food took FOREVER TO COME BUT IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT !

The place is good. Usually the DJ is good too. There are two floors to choose from and a smoking area right outside. Only problem, they pack it in there. By 12 there are so many people that you can barely move. Drinks and average quality and pricy as expected from a NYC club.

If you’re looking for a bad time look no further. The bouncers are rude management is terrible, drinks are not worth it. The vibes are not really fun everyone is standing around. I’ve tried to give this chance a place and every time it was nothing but a huge disappointment. You know it’s bad when you’re waiting in line and you see crowds of people telling you not to go in, and also women crying and being miss treated by staff members with a god complex. in the span of 15 to 20 minutes multiple fights broke out it’s a little ridiculous. and it’s usually between staff members and customers. There’s so many places to go out in New York, dont waste your time here

This venue certainly delivered a fun night of partying, 2 dance floors with different vibes, nice decor, great crowd. Only problem was the complete lack of ventilation/air flow which resulted in me testing positive for covid-19 shortly after; we were basically inhaling peoples breath and sweat all night. You can party in Vegas with more people and less risk. So yeah, party here at your own risk.

This place is the worst place ever to go out in nyc. The bouncers are rude (Carlos and other man that works on Friday night- wasn’t able to get his name because he wouldn’t speak to me). Both were super rude to me and my friends and we all paid for tickets to see a concert this night . They are irrational and would not even speak to me (but would speak to my guy friend). Don’t go here!!

A $60 cover charge for wearing SPECIFIC TYPES of boots instead of ALL BOOTS is silly. Literally two of my white friends who went in with doc martins and black metallic platform boots were able to get in FOR FREE without being patted down or given a second glance. Meanwhile me a black man needs to be pat down (THOROUGHLY) and forced to pay a $60 COVER CHARGE for wearing timberlands in order to enter. Really felt the behavior the night of the St. Patrick’s day event was uncalled for and definitely don’t plan on coming back here. Come at your own discretion my fellow people of color.

Cool place with multiple floors, great bars, music, dancing, and an outside roof patio. Very pricey though. If you didnt have tickets (never explained how to get them), then you could do a bar tab to get in. The guy said $50 per person, so $200 for our group. He then added it would be 8 drinks. Based on the convo it came as a surprise that it was only 8 drinks for all of us and not per person (we assumed bottom shelf). This place was nice, but $50 to get in with only 2 drinks is not worth it. We are in the age of post Covid, covers should be disappearing, not multiplying. I had more fun dancing outside the bar on the sidewalk with girls than inside on the crowded dance floor. Does DL stand for Disappointing Lounge?

One of the worst rooftop clubs you can go to in NY. The bouncers and management are rude, unprofessional and racist. They even broke my friends nose while we were leaving, and the cops had to be called to intervene.This place is always overrun by cops due to issues between management and customers. Other reviews clearly say so as well, should have read them before going to DL.The drinks are watered down and weak, and the place always looks sketchy. Restrooms are run down and they look like a post-apocalyptic scene.There are much better rooftop bars like Somewhere Nowhere, 230 on 5th, Le Bain, etc. that are not only upscale but have a good team of professionals. You can probably have a better time at the above joints, for the same price.

The absolute worst service I have ever had. We reserved a table for 20 people, and it took one hour for the bottle service to arrive. The entire staff was consistently aggressive and rude. They would not let one member of our group in because they rejected his real ID and refused to recheck it. They also threatened to kick us out for asking them to recheck it (one time…so pleasant) Would recommend any other bar in NY to spend your money at.

The worst, stay away from that club! We were part of a pub crawl and generally foreign IDs were simply not accepted without given logical explanation. Highly discriminating and disrespectful towards tourists, almost racist behaviour! Other pubs and club we have been to, had no problem with us and were welcoming and warm. Not that one though

The place is gorgeous to look at.......once youre inside.If you are a cognac sipper this is NOT the place for you. They have tons of whiskey and if that is your thing then you will be pleased. No mint leaves so they dont make mojitos.The bartender was kind of boring and what he suggested once I told him what I liked was not appealing. At all. It was only 5 people in the spot and I felt like the bartender would much rather continue his conversation with two gorgeous women who were staff and a gentleman I assumed was the manager.The sweet potato fries were great and the wings were alright. But the real kicker was the bill. For 2 drinks, fries and wings the bartender gave us the wrong bill which was over $100.When they do something more with that bar and get a better bartender I may go back. But its highly unlikely.Tons of dope spots on the Lower East Side, for me this aint one of them.

Really cool rooftop spot! went to a free iFeel party here. Drinks are a bit pricey, but otherwise such a cool spot!

Wasnt great. Coat check thinks they are working at the federal reserve vault.The security guards were being to invasive and the one who looks like he has tupee kept flashing his flashlight at people while in bar.There was another security guard who is thin and looks very young working outside looking to get in fights with people on the sidewalk for no reason.Also it appeared that people of color were not allowed in bar and were pulled out of line and told to leave.

One of the worst experience of my life. I would give 0 stars if possible. I am 21 years old. While the bouncer was checking my REAL ID, he bent it in half and told me it was fake, although I had just gone to the DMV 2 months before to get this license. A man, who was part of the staff, then came over and was extremely rude to me and told me to call the cops to get it back. Since it was my actual license, I did just that. After the cops arrived, the man continued to insist that my ID was fake and even threatened to call in another guy to verify his hypothesis even as I stood there with the police. Despite my cooperation, he was beyond rude to me AND the cops while trying to prove us wrong. I eventually got my ID back after I showed him multiple forms of identification. Overall, the staff was extremely rude and obviously do not know the difference between a fake and a real ID. I understand that they have to be on the look out for fake IDs but they went above and beyond with their levels of belligerence and hostility toward me as a young woman, and reached levels of rudeness that were both unnecessary and excessive. I do not recommend for anyone.

I just love the vibe of the place. Every time I go it just so relaxing . They have a house drink call the DL its so fresh and refreshing. If you want to nibble order the steak and truffle fries. So yummy. It three levels they do parties and different events also. The host is cute and young and very warm. So when you go make sure to tip. Its well deserved.

Pretty cool atmosphere, drinks were fairly priced compared to most other spots, music was good, only downside was that it was a little small and everyone uses the same bathroom.

Security guards were nice especially Mike i forgot my id but my mother text me it to me and Mike was understanding the food was yummy and bottle service was worth it i recommended this place!

This was my second time visiting this venue, the first time I came here was for a silent party that had a free RSVP option. However, 3 hours after the party was slated to start, the headphones were not set up. Once the headphones were set up, they then informed patrons that to use the headphones was a few and the fee would increase within the next 20 mins and there were not that many individuals in attendance to the event. My second visit was much more fruitful and I was able to enjoy the venue. Its a wonderful rooftop once you get past all of the stairs that you have to climb.

No covid precautions. Food was horrible. I got 3 mini sliders on Hawaiian buns and less fries than you get from $1 fries at McDonald’s. I paid $45 + tax for brunch at the door and $5 reservation online and they had no where for us to sit. We got set up on wooden tables 😕 Great party scene drinks were good.

Multiple of my friends attended and left with bloody noses and bruises after a fight broke out. Do not attended this club if you don’t want to leave bruised and battered while security does absolutely nothing.

It was an awesome night, first time visiting. I went for a brunch and ended up staying the entire night! It’s a bit bit pricey, but Ce la vie!!

Great great space, my gosh, would be great to shoot TV or film in or hire for big events. I went to a private event on the top floor, which had a glass roof, it had kind of a roof top, club vibe. Drinks were good, bartenders friendly. BUT they do not accommodate food to be served on the top floor, yet food is served on the other two. DJ was cool too.

The DL is an awesome place! I came here for a Valentines Day singles party hosted by NY Minute Dating and had the greatest time of my life. Its a rooftop bar with palm trees, a nice sized dance floor next to the DJ booth, and great/fast bartenders. The bar area was packed but I never had a problem getting my drinks quickly. That was a HUGE plus. Not sure what the regular crowd is like on weekends, as I am sure it depends who is promoting the event, but I had an awesome Valentines Day (which fell on Tuesday this year).

Its a cool place to relax or party at depending on your mood. My night started on the first floor eith house music, no one dances there really, theres a bar and other tables to sit at. The second floor is definitely for lounging. You can either sit and enjoy the music or dance your life away. The rooftop is pretty cool but theres only one area to sit which is on the balcony area. This floor is much more club like. Very nice setting though. The service was wasnt bad at all; was serviced pretty quickly on every floor despite whether there was a crowd around the bar or not.

Best frozen coffee Ive ever had. Had the pesto bagel, so delicious. The service was excellent: fast, attentive, friendly. Location is perfect right off the train station. Ambiance is very nice also. :) highly recommend this little gem.

Pretty average bar atmosphere. It has 2 main floors and there is an open feel on the top floor since there are a lot of windows and even a small outdoor space (mostly for smokers). Still, there is nothing about this space that is trendy or fun and they pull all the tricks, like cranking up the music so you have to scream instead of talk making you need to drink more.

Went for a day party on a Saturday on the rooftop. Nice spot with the levels but the floor on the rooftop feels like it will cave in at any point from the dancing. You can feel it wobbling below your feet. Its scary because it doesnt feel sturdy. My biggest problem with this place is the lack of visible security. During a dance party, I want to see security around making sure everyone is safe and having a good time. Another issue is that they let people smoke in there. No security around to notice or stop it. I hate second hand smoke and had to deal with it the whole time.

We were there Saturday night for an engagement party. From the bouncers to the hostess to bartenders, the staff couldnt have been better. Great job!

I was having a great experience for the fourth of july event i paid tickets for. Long wait but seemed worth it. About an hour in I wanted to step outside & saw many people leave and come back in. We asked two bouncers if we left, would we be able to enter again and they said of course. Left for not even 10 minutes and suddenly a male bouncer isn’t letting me in because of my yeezy sandals, calling them “house shoes”, which i find discriminatory considering i saw many sandals more flat than mine. Then it goes from my shoes being a problem to all of a sudden there’s no re-entry. I will never come here again and had way more fun next door at the oyster bar.

Amazing time was had..- the bennetts

Absolute joke of an establishment. Some rando in a busted Patagonia standing outside claimed to be the owner, just staring with people on line. Got upset because I asked him a question regarding how the table service works and if there are different lines for people paying for a table. Told me and my friends to get out of line and take a walk, funny part is we were on the sidewalk and not even on line. You dont own public property. If he actually is the owner, what a joke. Probably compensating for his much lower than average manhood. Would not recommend.

I choose there to go for my birthday, I had a great time with my girls. An the free champagne given was the bomb, it tasted good, have me searching liquor store for it now. Little downside the mimosas wasnt flowing as it should.

Terrible service. The waitress was not attentive. We were to be seated at 3. We were seated close to 3:30. We got in and did not receive our food orders until the last 30 mins of our 2 hour reservation. Then they had the AUDACITY TO OPEN THE SUNROOF on a 40 degree day. The wind was blowing and we were FREEZING. I asked to speak to manager and no manager came to our table. Very disappointing experience. I would not recommend.

Great food and drinks I love the customer service. Give some tips to build the enthusiasm of the service.

This place is an embarrassment from the bouncers to the staff all the way up to the management. Not to mention the drinks are overly priced and VERY weak. The place is very dirty also and I actually saw a cockroach in the establishment.They pull people out of line that fit their standers while a lot of the people that represent their name are nothing to smile about.To say the least I would never ever again come here. Youre better off heading somewhere else. Dont give your money to this kind of establishment. If I could give it no stars I would.I mean just look at all the bad reviews not only on here but on YELP too. This place is a dump.

Went on a Friday night. Two floors to party. The drinks were good. Crowd is not extremely diverse. The second floor is more for Caribbean music. The top floor is more rap and pop. You just have to pick which floor you want to party on based on vibe and music. Coat check is not free fyi.

The night life there is awesome…. Fellas, The ladies there are good vibes and look amazing !!!! 3 floors of flavors lol. Can’t wait to go back with my guys. The security helped me find my phone when he didn’t have to at all, his name was Misso. Great Staff, Great Drinks & GREAT MUSIC !!!!

Lol so whack all around. Don’t waste your time or money here

This is a beautiful Club / bar. Would highly recommend going there the layout is very nice and there are spots which offer privacy. Theres also a small porch outside with a great overview of the Manhattan skyline. There are two small downsides. The first is that like to climb up a number of what are ways to get there. The second is the prices tend to be a bit absorbent even for Manhattan. however that being said it is still a very nice place to go.

Just threw a surprise party for my friend here last night and I paid in advance so that all my guests would have access to our table before my arrival, as I was coming last with the birthday guest and not everyone knew each other. As my guests were checking in, the hostess just kept telling them to go upstairs, never sent them to our space. Then when I got there, they claimed none of my guests checked in and gave me a huge attitude about it. Meanwhile, on my way there I was trying to contact the promoter that had helped me arrange everything and she was unresponsive, but turns out she was there the whole time. Some time into the evening, I had to go and tell the hostess that I had guests waiting to come inside and she put her hand in my face and went outside to get them, and my friends said she was extremely rude and did not even acknowledge them the first few times they tried to get her attention. Overall, the atmosphere was cool and we made the most of it, but all of my guests were really unhappy with the staff and I definitely did not feel like a paying customer. Very rude and unprofessional, I will never go back here.

Used to be one of my go to spots for partying however the last time I went it was full of underage very drunk kids. A girl even fell down the stairs while another one throwing up in the corner.. the place is also overcrowded. I miss the old atmosphere when it was never packed and you were actually able to have a good time!

Nice bar with good drinks and food. The music choice was nice! Had some good variety including Linkin Park every once in a while. Very festive when you get to the roof top!

Drink are awesome security guys amazing

Three floors for different music and vibes. Bottom floor was more poppy and alternative, middle floor played trap and southern rap, and the top floor played top 40 with a hip-hop leaning. The crowd was diverse, though the general area seemed to be full of people in their early 20s. Sections had mainly folks in their late 20s to mid-thirties. My crew got a section, and the waitresses were friendly and attentive. I cant wait to come back in the summer when they take the roof off! Ill definitely be back.

Place is very nice and spacious. Came for happy hour once and was very difficult to get a drink but besides that, drinks were very good. Upstairs is more of a lounge scene with the roof top being open; real nice during summer. I would visit again.

The place was nice upstairs and the bartenders were good. At the time we decided to leave after walking down the first set of steps and proceeding to the second set of steps, my friend and I literally fell down the steps together. I wasnt drunk had a few drinks and all that was done was that we were put in a room like drunks. No one cared if we were okay. I have bruises and have been hurting since. If you go there watch those steps.

Omg where do I start. Absolutely one of the dirtiest, most ratchet place I’ve ever been, I was there for 2 hours and saw 4 different girls throw up directly on the floor, and no one come to clean it, everyone was just stepping in it and tracking it around. The second floor was so packed, there was no air flow and the whole floor smelled like body odor. The top floor was also so packed you couldn’t move and were constantly being pushed. The whole demo of this place is 21 year olds who are just trying to get as drunk and sloppy as possible. I would never go back here even if you paid me. A total waste of a night.

This place is so sexist fr, my friend and I weren’t wearing mini skirts so we didn’t “meet the dress code”. They only cared because we were girls, honestly skip this place if you want to have a fun night.

I came here for an event and it was at the rooftop bar with great views. There was an outdoor area to hangout at. This was during the winter time, so the roof was not actually open, but definitely interesting to know. The music was very loud, so you might lose your voice if youre trying to have a conversation. But aside from that, I would love to come again for future events perhaps in warmer weather to see how it is!

The DL is an easy skip. If you are thinking of going here or a friend suggests it, surely you can do better. It is over-priced and crowded. The music was somehow surprisingly bad and not mainstream. That being said, the service was surprisingly good and the drinks surprisingly decent (which is to say still not worth the cost). The wait alone makes this a reconsider option. For a place that specifically advertises its spectacular view of the city skyline, it is shockingly hard to see anything through the building, décor, and dense crowds.

Guy at the door had great vibes!!

This bar/club is overrated in my opinion. Its a place where people with reservations can show off bottled service for the birthday girl/boy. Definitely for a younger crowd that has a little extra money to blow.If you dont have a reservation, expect to wait in line just to see the place half empty. Out the 3 floors, the top is the mostly heavily populated which cause the floor to bulge on what seems to be poor floor supoort.Drinks are super overpriced, small and not that great. Wouldnt return unless I was invited for a party or for a music event.

Ventured here for a birthday last Saturday night. Being in the lower east side of the city, a lot of eating and drinking places surround this spot, nice area.When you go in I think its more of a bar/Lounge on the first floor. We rushed up to the third floor, this was the club floor (I guess). There was a bar in the middle and a pretty big space around. There is even a little Terrance (for smokers I was told).The coat check on this place is a little weird, like you def have to ask where it is, youll never find it on your own.10$ shots all night, I think I spent about 40$ and I got pretty messed up (lol). But overall it was a good vibe, I had fun, my friends had fun.I would recommend for a night out.

I went to the DM on my Birthday. The rooftop was so much fun, the amazing weather, drink specials, and music definitely helped bring the ultimate vibe out of this venue. Only complaint is the amount of stairs to get to the rooftop. Not a huge issue but if your like me forever in heels, be ready for what feels like walking up Runyon Canyon!

Door guard stands at the entrance and insults each guests Drivers License picture as they come in. Dont know if this is a litmus test to avoid letting in super intoxicated people, but were talking about a place that goes one by one calling women ugly or men pedophiles. Yes, really. The short fat balding man handling the licenses and unable to sense irony probably shouldnt be commenting but does.This ruined my evening before it even started with as part of a group that paid over $700(and still had to stand in a queue!) for some highly claustrophobic reserved seats on the top floor.Drinks are over priced. Top floor everyone was standing around like zombies instead of dancing.Incredibly negative experience -- dont understand the appeal. Would never go back to a place like this in a million years but know theres many young adults to tap money from and piss off before The DL goes out of business. Spend your money elsewhere.

I really liked this place it was full of plants. They have enough seating indoor and outdoor. Good music and great drinks. Would definitely recommend on a weekend.

$24 for a double of crown royal!Went to an event that was held in the venue. Place was nice and clean, but eventgoers were yelled at once or twice over the night by the store manager, without clear purpose. Turns out, they double booked the space that night and because of their error, we were moved to a lower floor. A couple of our party goers stepped out the door (ciggerates, phone calls, whatever) and they were denied re-entry because of some dress code we we never told about!I was impressed with the space bit the service made me not want to go back.

Water down cocktails , arrogant staff and security - tasteless food and one of the worst djs i’ve seen in my life. The place used to be really good , don’t know if management has changed but the way its run nowadays leaves you with a “why did i ever decided to spend my money here” kind of after feeling.NY is a city full of amazing bars , this one here ain’t it - don’t waste your money or time here - specially if you are looking to have a great time ; this place will give you the complete oposite.

There is fraudulent activity going on in that restaurant. And the manager is in on it. I was there and my card was used multiple times for drinks and food that I didn’t even purchase. When I called and explained this to the manager she called me a liar. I ask her to send me the receipts she did and the receipt signatures did not match. I told her to check her cameras she told me she would get back to me in a few days. she never did. I tried contacting her I was never able to get in touch with her.. now that I finally get in touch with her weeks she is telling me that the security tapes are no longer available.

The first floor is nice classy bar and table seating for the restaurant. The top floor is a partially covered rooftop (no views tho , its not at a level you can look down or over to get a view) that hosts parties often. I would be back for the 1st floor bar but the rooftop , no as its not able to give you any scenery .

I was at the DL Rooftop last night as last stop of the NY pub crawl I was part of. Around 2:30am, I was in the outside fenced area helping out a very drunk girl, who did not live in NY and that wanted to go back to her hotel in Queens. I was booking an uber for her whilst holding a beer in my other hand doing no harm to anyone, suddenly the security guy came to me and told me to go back inside. I explained to him that I was going to go back inside once I had booked the uber for this girl, but he wasnt having it. He took my beer out of my hand and walked off. Fair enough, I understand here in NYC the alcohol policies are very strict. I quickly got over the fact that my very expensive beer got thrown away by this dude for no reason whatsoever. Then, it gets even worse, this blonde woman came to me (I am assuming she works for you) and started babbling on about the fact that I was not listening to them when I was talking to the uber on the app...anyway, she got offended and kicked me out. Even though, once again, I explained that I was helping out someone getting home safely. I dont think that there is anything else left to say really.

Ok so... I went here for a party and it was a blast. Like, literally so amazing. The bathrooms are great. I didnt have the food but the drinks are nice and heavy. They got me lit like a lightning bug. Great atmosphere.

Unfriendly security staff at the entrance. Feels like a factory and not a good bar/club.Ive been to many clubs in nyc and some fancier than this. The staff were much more respectful.Answer: Having been to this place for my friends birthday, and seeing how you treat your customers, Id say its the basket that is rotten and not necessarily the apples 😉

I went on a carribean night and it was great. The did had the full packed house dancing. A lot of women which is always a plus for single ready to mingle guys. I would have gave a 5 but I couldnt bring in my 360 camera to take photos, but the manager was nice enough to explain to me that professional cameras were not allowed. She was polite and they let me in. I would sex suggest going to this multicolored restaurant slash dance club rooftop

First thing is the hour of operation is wrong. It stated they were open to 4am not that they close at 9pm and reopen at 11pm. We got tickets online just to arrive to wait for an hour. The dress code stated to dress up but we waiting in line for hours in heels. Then the second level Dj played soco, reggae all night. The third level Dj music was ok but there is no sitting room at all. If you here visiting then I recommend going somewhere else

Went here for a friends birthday party at 8pm (not my choice). They wouldnt serve any water that wasnt overpriced bottled water.

I was not allowed to enter due to the brand of boots I was wearing (timberland). It was below 30 degrees out and getting ready to snow!! My girl and I was visiting from Florida and ready to spend good money at this place!To top it off I spoke with the “manager” who was very unpleasant and quickly profiled me as low class individual. I’d even go as far as saying a hint of prejudice.Spend your money elsewhere.

A friend on the guest list for a birthday and they still expected me to pay 60 dollars at the door for drinks I wasn’t drinking. I pay less to park my car! Left immediately and waited for them at Max Fish, better music too!

Wasnt really impressed with DL. The particular evening I attended the air conditioning wasnt on, and the drinks were a little too pricey for a place that wasnt specialized in making signature cocktails. However, the place is stunning, beautiful atmosphere with a pool on the top floor...very cool.

This establishment is an absolute disgrace. How on earth are they still running a business I dont know lol. The bartenders feel like they are Gods and they will get you kicked out and mistreat you if you dont ask for your drinks in a super nice way. They pick fights with you and then call security to have you escorted out. Yes, I saw this happen. To top it off they are racist as ****. 3 shots , 3 drinks, 1 water bottle $160.00! This is not a place to have a good time! They mistreat you from the very beginning. Once you walk up to the place theres an ******* bouncer treating people like garbage. Once you get pass the bouncer your already feeling bad vibes. Then you have to deal with the bartenders ugh... seriously this place is not worth it.

Cool venue, we went for a live art installation and the event itself was really interesting and fun, reasonably priced alcohol and good music too.The issue that I had was the annoying barmen, (on the top rooftop floor). Both of them were cold and short with us, and when my girlfriend ordered a non-alcoholic drink, one of them called her choice of drink boring and advised she have a beer.Hey, shut up. Youre a barman, youre paid to pour my drink, not make dumb comments nobody wants to hear.Sort the customer service, keep the cool events and youve got yourself a winner. Not all the staff were this unpleasant, bouncer was very friendly - a rare attribute to find in most doormen.

Wish I could give 0 stars tbh. Came here for a friends birthday, and we got a table. Service is trash, employees are SO rude (except for security) but apparently they hire their security through a third party?? they took away my taser which I understood. I gave them my reasoning because I am a young Asian American female living in NYC (gotta stay safe you know what I mean). Told me theyd give it back to me at the end of the night because Id be traveling back to Queens alone, never gave it back. Called them to ask if I could pick it up, went to go pick it up, the owner I presume had an ATTITUDE! So never got that back. Ambiance was trash, music was trash, drink prices were so steep. There are better clubs/ lounges in Manhattan with cheaper drink prices and better music. Besides the aesthetic, everything is TRASH.

This offers a lot of different environments and vibes which makes it great for small and large groups. Small groups can easily navigate to different areas while large groups can split up per their preference. The bottom floor is an upscale bar. The second floor is a hip hop lounge complete with couches and disco ball. The third floor is a top 40 club with an outdoors Smokey balcony. Can get crowded at times with long drink or bathroom lines but music choice is solid and crowd is attractive. Get in before 11pmto avoid cover.

Solid spot great views

This is a great place to go on the weekends. It gets pretty packed after 1130pm 12, hear place to turn up and dance. Awesome music selection including hip hop, trap, and Spanish. Friday and Saturday thus is the rooftop to go to.

I dont know why DL gets no reviews here but it deserves more to be rocking hip hop music on a Saturday night with plenty of dance floor for FREE! I mean, if you go to Meatpacking District, you have to pay big bucks only so you can dance with Euro trashes and B&T crowd. So why not just come here and hang for free while celeb spotting some former NBA players?! I am not kidding.Anyway, I think it is a cool spot and plenty of room to move around. Drinks are not cheap but that is New York. I would come back again.

The experience was good, i had a Meet and Greet there and the place was great. Had to go out about 11pm to help one of my members down being that he was in a wheelchair.... tried to get back in and they gave me a mayor problem my jacket an personal belongings was up on the roof top floor.They send me to the end of the line why?Dont know ....They were letting certain people in and not even from the line that they had made me go to. And there were color people as well latinos they did not let us in..So on that there regulations Sucked.. They need to change them... the security Hernandez was cool but there was a lady and a guy managing that was completely ridiculous. As a security person myself working for a huge entertainment promotion company Ive never seen door rules this ridiculous.I had like 40 people upstairs and we all after that incident...Victor

The place is really nice, 3 floors, plenty of space where to hang out and dance +outdoor space....2 negatives. ONLY ONE BATHROOM. If anyone needs to go more than once you will spend more than half your time in the bathroom line lol. 2nd negative unnecessarily waaaaay overpriced drinks. I get its in the city, but drinks are more expensive than probably 90% of places in the city. Otherwise a good spot with a nice crowd.

Best night club in nyc. period.

Best roof top in town

If you want to enjoy dinner, lounge and club all within the same building then this three tier all in one is the place to go. I would definitely take advantage of checking out the lounge and the club above if you going to dine here given you can cut through the line without waiting. Crowd is a mix bag though, so if youre aiming for one demographic then you should try other places. Food is average at floor level and dont expect much for drink on the higher floor since you have to fight your way though to the bartender.

The rooftop is really pretty...all the high plants, it felt like a on oasis! And they have a shots special!!! $10 for any shot of your choosing...not just the house, cheapy liquor. The music is good...not great but good.

Great venue and staff. Rooftop is everything. Left a coat behind (with AirPods) on a recent visit. They were very responsive and were able to track down the lost items for me. 🙏🏿🙏🏿

Great spot for big groups when you want to go out. Drinks are strong and decent price. Music can be a hit or miss but for the most part, the rooftop is the best spot.

It was okay. Music was good. It has changed a lot since the pandemic. I would suggest they serve more than bar food for dinner. They serve appetizer food. They dont serve dinner.We went there for dinner and ordered chicken wings and tacos. .ehhhh

They let me in and got mad that my friend caused a commotion while I was inside, I went back out to see what the problem was and they kicked me out for “wrong pants” I was wearing black True Religion joggers…unprofessional and pathetic security,

Expensive, crowded place. I came for a business mixer and was packed right away at the roof top. The roof top is not in open air and was packed like sardines. The drinks were very expensive for the area and the wait staff was not any friendlier for it. Overall I had sweaty experience and would not return.

No elevator.5 to 6 flights of stairsDrinks were very expensive.It was suppo to be a deal but wasnt.Staff was friendly though

Dont come here if youre a minority and dont personally know the bouncer. He refused to let 3 cute girls in but let in tons of people after us who greased his palm or knew him. The bouncer was very rude and made us stand out in the rain for over 10 minutes while trying to flag down a taxi.

I went to DL (Dinner on Ludlow) for my birthday and the place is pretty nice. The lights are very dim and they cater to a more hip crowd. I had the truffle mac n cheese and the steak frites, both were pretty good. What made my night were the drinks, they were very well mixed and strong but not too strong. I did not get a chance to check out the lounge on top of the restaurant but I will go back to see what it is all about.

Great place to visit! The drinks are as good as the vibe! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to go to a top club in the city!

Decent club. They pay attention to M/F ratio so dont show up with 4 poor ugly dudes or bring some girls. I visited in the winter and they had a coat check-in that cost $4 cash only. I didnt see the uppermost part but heard good things. Rail drinks were $12 but its Manhattan... Whatd you expect?

Second time visiting. A party was taking place upstairs so the door was kept open. It was chilly Halloween Saturday. Loved the food and drinks.
