  • farewell party
    We had my farewell party for the last day of my job at JIMMY and it was epic. The DJ was great. Views are stellar. Food and drinks are very expensive but totally worth it. It's a small space and they run a tight ship with the guest list, but it's totally worth it. There's also a pool so I can only assume that in season it's even cooler. I didn't get any pics of food or drink worth sharing but attached some of the view.
  • private outdoor event
    One of my favorite places to go AND recommend. An absolutely gorgeous view, I like to go a little earlier, catch a sunset and good convo before the crowd comes. The later party is always fun, good music, tasty small bites and the staff treats me like fam. Ya, I’ve been going there for yearssss, BECAUSE it’s always a good time. Recently, I organized a small event in their outdoor space and Sayora, the GM, was so accommodating with helping me sort details🌟
  • group night out, party of 12
    Great views and fun with my group of 12 people! The service was good and price expensive but normal for rooftop Manhattan bar. The only thing that was bad was the espresso martini. It tasted like syrup!
  • private event
    Was here for a private event and had a great time. Staff was friendly and helpful. Atmosphere was beautiful.
  • birthday reservation
    Made a reservation for my friends birthday and doorman refused entry. We offered to pay if possible to get in but we weren’t given any reason why we couldn’t go inside. Two of our friends were already inside and it wasn’t crowded so we just left, really disappointed in the treatment. Also apparently no management, we asked to speak to someone other than the one man that was out there he said he was the one in charge.
