The Blaq List

It was recommended by a friend. I thought this place was a typical rooftop bar with adults bring dates and colleagues for drinks. However the atmosphere was family friendly. I saw families hanging out, friends having dinner. Lovely ambience with fantastic New York skyline. I had a great time spending the last night in the city with my friends at this place.

Nice location and parking wasn’t that hard to find when we got there. Good idea to go after 7 when street parking is free. Went for the date night special. Felt like the waiter was rushing us in the beginning with the order. But I’m guessing he did so so that he don’t fall behind because by time we left, things picked up and some people was waiting a bit to order and get their drinks. Nice view of the city. Only thing I would say is I think they should have more heaters outside. This is a nice place to go when it’s maybe 65 and above. It started getting chilly even with the heater as the night went on. The tables are also really close together. The food was really tasty and the champagne was nice and chilled. Overall good experience

Great NYC rooftop. I've been here many times throughout the years. This was the first time after the pandemic and on valentine's day with the prefixed menu. The location is amazing, with phenomenal views of NYC, especially the empire state building. Inside and outside dining available. Great decor and vibes. Staff are all courteous & attentive. The prefixed menu wasn't my favorite, average bar food . But overall definitely recommend for the views, atmosphere and experience.

Nice place to hangout with friends and having amazing view of city at heights. Specially at evening the empire state building view is best. About food and drink is good but I think they should add more cocktails in their menu. Frose is my best drink and you should try too.

We had no reservations, arrived about 9pm on a Monday. You pick your table but lots are reserved. You'll have to stand and wander around to get the best pictures of the surrounding skyscrapers. You order and pay for your drinks at the window then take them to your table or bench. The drinks were good. : Patrons seemed happy to be there.

The place was amazing! From when I walked in and told them I had reservations to making sure I was comfortable at my table. I had an option for indoor or outdoor. I really wanted outdoor even if it was cold. The views are so stunning and magical. I picked outdoor but it started raining so I was sat under a covered table. They have robes to cover yourself if you’re really cold. The staff was amazing took care of us till we left. The Date Night package was so worth it, I can’t wait to do it again.

Great place to watch city view. You can see the all city from this place. You can drink or have dinner at top of the rooftop. Definitely you should visit this place for hanging out. If you don’t wanna be at rooftop you can use other floor. You can see the club floor. Prices of goods look normal.

Although the front host was a little rude I had a great experience. Amazing views of the city. Great place to take pictures. Once we were seated inside it was a bit hard to get the waitress attention when we wanted more drinks. Overall the food and drinks were great. The dancers were amazing and there is enough space for you to dance as well. I have to go back for their sushi again. I highly recommend it.

Like most people wanting a memorable night out in New York, the search for a decent roof top bar with great views is high on the list and although the city offers plenty of options, managing to get in to one is another thing altogether!!! However, after a bit of effort we managed to gain access to 230 Fifth which is a roof top bar that had been recommended to me. The key thing to remember is do not forget your ID as the door man is very strict about this. Although my wife had forgotten to bring hers, a spot of ‘negotiation’ with said doorman and giving him the thrill of overly emphasising the importance of bringing our ID to us he did finally let us in. Zooming up to the top floor in the elevator you soon step out in to a fantastic and very busy roof top bar with great panoramic views of the city skyline and the Empire State Building standing very proud right in front of you. The bar had a good food menu at reasonable costs considering the location and an equally good selection of drinks. Order at bar and find a table it you are lucky and your food will be brought to you. Get up to the roof early to catch the sunset and the night setting in as both of these are spectacular and probably the main reason we all go up there in the first place. Wonderful views but the place really comes alive in the dark when all the buildings light up and the Empire State Building puts a light show on. 230 Fifth was a great bar and a great way to spend an evening in the city. Give it a go, you won’t be disappointed.

Located at 230 Fifth Avenue in New York. At the entrance you will present an ID to the security guard must be over 21 years old and take the elevator to floor number 20 and then you will enter the roof garden of the penthouse. Garden with tables, benches, swings, and seating areas. In addition, there is a bar that serves a variety of drinks, beers, alcohol, but also non-alcoholic drinks. You can order light food like pizzas etc. But the most important thing is the view. This rooftop is located so that you can see the best buildings in the city, including the Empire State Building. You can take pictures of the surroundings even though there is a growing fence around. The prices are affordable and the atmosphere, including the music, is excellent.
