Really nice place. I enjoyed their patio and the service from our waitress. We did not eat much only some nachos, which were nothing special. It was very crowded on a Tuesday afternoon and we had to wait a little to find a table. Overall great experience and will visit again.

Nice bar in a small building. Although the building only has one floor there is a rooftop bar. The traffic sound is very loud as it is so close to the street. The staff was very friendly and fast. It is a good place to drink a coronaritha.

Food was delicious! Prices were a little much but it is New York at the end of the day. For 2 people we paid almost 100 but in my opinion it was worth it! Appetizer was great & tacos were amazing.

Great rooftop bar overlooking Madison Square Garden. Nice view of city, tall buildings and the hustle and bustle. Enjoyed the burrito with a great sauce! Make it a regular stop.

First time eating and drinking here and it was perfect! We sat on the rooftop and it felt like the perfect little escape. Food tasted fresh and came out really quick. Will definitely be coming back again.

My easy peasy pleasy everyone place! Every guest that I have taken to Lucy’s loved the vibe and the food! I got the healthy salad with shrimp add on and trust me it was too good to be called just a salad. Location is so convenient when going to a Broadway show or just showing your tourist friends around Times Square! 5 stars every time!

Very nice spot im Midtown Manhattan. The chorizo quesadilla was very tasty, and beef burrito was good. Draft Beer was to perfect temperature. Service was friendly, food came out quickly, and bathrooms were very clean. (Always a good sign ;)
