Rooftop 48

This Unilocal account is a scam this place is really called «cantina rooftop»

Stop by for some great ambiance & it’s exactly what we got!
Tip: The Guacamole is awesome!

Non attentive. I came here for my birthday and I was really disappointed. I can’t speak on the food but I can speak on the service and the waitressing. Drinks are watered down too. It bothers me to leave a negative review but the only positives here is the gentleman that runs the elevator, the gentleman that monitors the restrooms and the view of Manhattan.

Told there would be no cover yet after waiting 45 minutes I was told there was a cover. Overpriced drinks using cheap liquor, after waiting 15+ minutes just to be acknowledged by the bartenders. Packed crowd, bathroom line long. The outside area is nice but everyone is smoking and makes it much less enjoyable. Will not be returning here and I would advise others to do the same.

I went there with my sister and my friend on Friday to celebrate the continuation of my sister birthday week. SHe turned 21 yayyy, it was pretty cool. The view and atmosphere is pretty ok. When it got later that night, things kinda changed. The crowd changed to a much older crowd and The DJ was horrible, I don’t know what to say except for «they could have done better. I’m still debating whether I would go back or not!

Love the vibe of this place the drink are great and music is perfect for any crowed.

Issue after issue… The bartender had an awful attitude, she did not inform us of the happy hour limitations. The happy hour menu had changed since the last time we were there (it’s pitiful). We were there at 6pm it was painfully obvious why we were there, if I want to pay full price I’ll show up at 11pm. The ordering system was down and she claimed she could not place the food order, she couldn’t close out the bill either. How far is the kitchen that you can’t place an order!!! Unbelievable!!! Took forever to pay just so we could get out. Never again. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Nice rooftop bar for sure, view faces east so your view is into the city (just FYI)
Unfortunately did not get a chance to sample the food which was my main objective, but had a beer and a few drinks at the inside bar instead. Bartender Alex was super cool, self labeled mixologist and in my opinion deserved — I just said «rum» and he delivered majorly.
Saturday afternoon scene was surprising, thought it would be chill but was much more a scene with ladies dressed as slutty as you could imagine and lots of NYC «bros».
Okay so all that said I do like this place, would recommend and come back.

Really? Things they were out of at 5 Pm on a Friday included: Steak, salsa, plantains, & nearly all white wine.
If you’re in a hurry, not to worry because you’ll finish up your food quickly. The tacos for dinner included 3 bites (1 taco each). The service was super slow. The crowd was …
I’d come back only for happy hour.

Most people here have reviewed the space for it’s restaurant. I went for a birthday party last night, where it was more like a club and had a doorman/​promoters/​and lists. We arrived at about midnight, there was no line and had to pay a $ 20 cover to get in. This is an instant annoyance.
The upstairs space (you have to walk 3 flights up) was extremely crowded and bustling with people. My friend had a table through a promoter, so having a place to relax made things a litle bit more mellow. There were bottles, being delivered to various tables with sparklers and the normal «club» antics. The crowd was really young, i’m thinking 19 – 23? Not my scene, but a las I was there for a friends birthday and it wasn’t my choice of venue.
The actual out door part of the club is very small and narrow at the far end of the dance floor. It appears in the pictures that normally the whole rooftop is open but I suppose last night was to cold? It was full of people smoking and I hardly had a moment there to enjoy the views.
The only saving grace at this place, was that the mixed drinks at the bar were $ 10.00, not as expensive as you would expect for this type of venue. Come here if you are 21 years old and your friend has a table. Otherwise if you’re like me, only venture in when you have to make an appearace. I’ve been to way more interesting roof tops.

I went for Cinco De Mayo (they were out of Margaritas?) but other than that this place was sweeeeeeeeeet.
I will be coming back.

Came by with a group of 8 while in town to catch up! One of my friends recommended it and we were all very pleased. The happy hour specials were great and included delicious appetizers like empanadas and guacamole with corn and plantain chips. They also has some delicious drink options!
We stayed around after complaining about the cold but the manager quickly closed up the patio area and made it perfect! We pretty much closed the place. The ambiance was great and the music was really chill; a mix of old and new.
The waitress and manager took really good care of us! I can’t wait to come back and try the full menu inside! :)

I am writing this review strictly on having experience at the bar. I didn’t get to try the food I will surely be back. The bartenders were very nice and attentive and recommended some good drinks. I had the pomegranate margarita which was delicious and not too sweet. Also the pepino margarita which is my ultimate favorite right now. It is a little spicy and refreshing at the same time. So delicious!!! I will definitely be back here for drinks and to try the food. The location is very nice and is a chill place to have drinks with friends in the rooftop.

Absolute disaster. I had a reservation for 8:30. Arrived at 8 and was told it would be a 2 hour wait for a table — HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?. Bar was too crowded to even get a drink. Avoid this place at all costs — they obviously have NO IDEA how to manage a restaurant.

The staff was really friendly. The tacos were amazing but the portions are kind of small. I wish we could have eaten outside because the view and atmosphere were great. I will definitely be back when the weather warms up.

I went here on a Saturday for dinner with a party of 8. We made reservations on open table, and I love it that they don’t charge a fee if someone doesn’t show up for the party, since many restaurants do. I got there at 8:45, my party came 45 minutes late and my waitress Amy was very patient with us. I ordered some drinks in the meanwhile.
The cocktails are pretty pricey at $ 14 for what you get, plus it’s not strong at all and beers are $ 8. The appetizers were small and so were the entrees. But this restaurant is tapas, so it’s understandable. I ordered the mayan ceviche and some tuna tacos. I liked the tacos alot and the ceviche were good.
I told the waitress it was my boyfriend’s birthday and she seemed so enthusiastic about it and she asked me what kind of dessert I wanted. I chose the chocolate cake and a few minutes later after my party finished with our food. She came out with a flaring candle on the dessert. I think that made the night more memorable. I will definitely be coming back another day to enjoy their rooftop.

I came here because I had bought a brunch deal through Living Social. I had never heard of this place but it was pretty cool. The service was okay not really that great but the place and food made up for it. I had the eggs and steak which were good however I asked for my steak to be medium rare and it came medium well. I don’t send food back because I’m afraid so I ate it and it still had a good flavor. I got to try the French toast with dulce the leche and they were amazing.
The place had a very laid back cool, Miami feel to it that I really enjoyed.

Great atmosphere, helpful and kind waitresses. Was there for my girlfriends bachelorette party… grabbed don’t food and they were pretty good to my surprise…
Great for couples, girls night out, parties… price was decent and loved my «summer breeze» cocktail…

Visited this rooftop lounge for brunch this past Sunday with a couple of people.
At 1^st, there was a small problem with my reservation & miscommunication on the restaurants behalf on what time brunch ended. The manager came to our table to talk with me & rectify the problem. I can’t remember his name but he’s was very calm & professional & came up with a solution that I was satisfied & happy with!
This rooftop restaurant lounge/​restaurant has nice views, a professional staff & pretty good food. We ordered from the «small plates» menu which worked out pretty good since we were originally there for the brunch menu. Our order included 2 orders of the Empanada Trio, 3 orders of Wagyu Beef Sliders, 2 orders of Truffle Pomme Frites & a couple of drinks. ABSOLUTELY no complaints about the wait time, taste/​quality of food or presentation!
I will be back in the future to visit this establishment!

I came across this deal on Living Social & figured id give it a try. it is a small selected menu for the deal but it does have some good choices.
The restaurant itself is small nice décor with a nice bar area & large patio area outside with plenty of couch seating & a view.
Once seated we started with a bottle of Pinot Gricio, nice wine went well with our choices. We had a choice of 3 we Picked the Kobe Beef sliders, Shrimp Tacos & The Empanadas.
Kobe Beef Sliders nice taste with the red onion asiago & truffle oil. With the Empanadas we had a choce of 2 out of the 3 we tried the Choriqueso & Poblano chile & Huitlacoche & Oaxaca Cheese … pretty fancy for empanadas but they were alright.
Spicy Shrimp Tacos was the clear winner out of the three great tasting even better after u dipped it in the sauce it comes with nice spicy kick to it.
After our bottle was done we tried another one & went with the Sauvignon Blanc, good wine a bit on the sweet side.
Since eveything is small we deciced to try the Guacamole Trio, Tropical, Goat Cheese & Ranchero guacamole make up the trio & come with plantain chips the Guacamole was good but didnt taste much diffrent from one to the other, good plantain chips.
Nice service, good atmosphere if dinning with out a deal prices are a bit pricey but worth a try all in all we enjoyed our meal.

Un accueil chaleureux, un espace clair, cosy avec une vue superbe sur Manathan, une immense terrasse, bref ce lieu a tout pour plair!
Même s’il est clairement excentré (10 minutes de marche minimum pour aller au métro) et dans un quartier peu fréquenté, ce restaurant vaut le détour.
On y mange très bien. nous avons testé le brunch qui était délicieux: des petites patisseries américaines, un pichet de cocktail maison, un plat (un peu trop huilé) composé d’aliments frais et bien cuisinés … De plus avec ses grands canapés et ses larges tables, l’endroit est tout à fait adaptés à des groupes de petite et grande taille. je pense même qu’en été la terrasse peut être un atout majeur :)
N’hésitez plus, allez-​y et dites moi ce que vous en pensez
