• birthday party, party of 25

  I planned a birthday party here for about 25 guests and it was amazing. The service we received was perfect, staff coordinated well for the surprise and clean up making sure we were well stocked. Top notch service! Views were amazing, wouldn’t have done it differently.

• corporate event

  Our organization hosted an event at Harriet's Rooftop Restaurant & Bar at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, and unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. During the sales process, I made it abundantly clear that we would only move forward if we could be placed in one of the rooftop spaces with views of the Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn Bridge—not the Liberty space. I was assured this request would be accommodated. Upon arrival, however, we discovered that we had been assigned to the Liberty space, the one area I specifically said would not meet our needs. When I raised the issue, management offered no meaningful solution. A simple request to allow our guests access to a small section for photographs was flatly denied. Rather than attempting to resolve a problem that originated within their own organization, the management team seemed focused on explaining why nothing could be done. Merle, the Director of Banquets and Events, was professional and courteous and made an effort to help, but others in management showed little interest in accommodating a client who had invested significantly in food, beverage, and event space. What made the experience even worse was the complete lack of follow-up. Despite multiple managers being involved that evening, days passed without a single phone call, email, or acknowledgment from anyone in leadership. Only after I sent a detailed email outlining my concerns and copied the area manager did I receive a response from Murat Erbil, the Area Director of Restaurants, Nightlife, and F&B Operations. Unfortunately, his response was dismissive and portrayed the situation as though the team had done everything possible to accommodate us, which was simply not true. At no point did anyone acknowledge the breakdown in communication that led to the issue or take ownership of the fact that reasonable accommodations were available but intentionally denied. I oversee more than 50 events nationwide each year and work with venues across the country. Rarely have I encountered a venue so unwilling to make even the smallest accommodation to address its own mistake. Better communication and a genuine commitment to customer service could have made all the difference. Based on this experience, I will not be returning to Harriet's Rooftop or conducting future business with 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge. Event planners and organizations looking for a venue should understand that the promises made during the sales process may not reflect the experience they ultimately receive.

• proposal celebration, party of 20

  THE PERFECT PROPOSAL From the moment we started planning our engagement day, Zen and his incredible team at The One Hotel/Harriet's Rooftop went above and beyond to ensure that our special moment was nothing short of perfection. This was the ONLY venue for us, as we had met at this rooftop almost 7 years to the date. The level of care, attention to detail, and overall dedication to making our day memorable was truly outstanding. Zen, the mastermind behind our engagement, orchestrated everything flawlessly. He worked closely with us to develop a surprise plan that left no stone unturned. His creativity and thoughtfulness shone through in every aspect of the proposal, transforming our vision into a beautiful reality. The surprise proposal itself was the epitome of romance and shock! Zen's coordination with the team ensured that everything went off without a hitch. The setting was magical, the ambiance was perfect, and the moment was everything I had hoped for and more. Following the proposal, Zen continued to impress us at Harriet's. He expertly managed our group of 20, ensuring that each guest was cared for and comfortable. As a self-proclaimed sushi snob, I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the food. The sushi was exceptional – fresh, flavorful, and expertly prepared. We kept ordering more, and each dish was as delicious as the last. Zen's meticulous planning ensured that everyone was tucked away, adding to the surprise when my fiancée walked in and saw her family waiting. It was a heartwarming moment that we will cherish forever. A special shoutout to Carlos, one of the finest bartenders around. His skillful concoctions, seamless conversation, and support added an extra layer of delight to our celebration, making the night even more enjoyable. TLDR: this was the most special day of my life, and it was all thanks to Zen, Carlos, and the entire team at Harriet's. The proposal was immaculate, and I couldn't have done it without their help. Their professionalism, warmth, and expertise in creating memorable moments are truly commendable. To anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion, I cannot recommend Harriet's highly enough. As evidenced, their team will ensure that your event is executed with the utmost precision and care, leaving you with memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you, Zen and team, for making our engagement an unforgettable experience.
