http://www.empirehotelnyc.com/?mpage=the_rooftop The Empire Hotel Rooftop offers precisely what you'd expect from a high-end establishment of this caliber: beautiful 12th-floor views, a classy ambiance, and an elite crowd. The tastefully decorated rooftop is enclosed for year-round enjoyment, and the ornamentation is not to be forgotten. The bar offers a wide variety of cocktails that imbibers can enjoy while taking in spectacular views of the Upper West Side. The rooftop space is intimate, so long lines are standard. DJs play a wide range of music, mostly Top 40 and pop hits; some evenings there are live jazz performances during happy hour. --Gabriel Herrera Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.enids.net Wade through the throng of smokers lounging on nearby wooden benches to enter Enidas, a lynchpin of Williamsburg/Greenpoint nightlife. The hodgepodge array of tables and chairs can make even the frumpiest feel welcome, and the beer flows freely. The onsite photo booth makes for hours of drunken entertainment and embarrassing memories. Feel free to swing by the next morning for brunch, reliving the night before over eggs and killer Bloody Marys. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.epistrophycafe.com Till the throngs descend, you can be the super suave bastard among your friends, introducing them to the winsome, neighborhood Epistrophy just down the street from Lombardi's. It's the lounge with the well-priced selection of Italian reds ($6-$10 a glass), hefty wooden boards piled with Sopressata and fresh figs; and attractive Italian clientele, always milling about. Sardinian owners (and comely couple) Luca Fadda and Giorgia Zedda outfitted Epistrophy with all the "handsome den" comforts: dark wood shelves stocked with books, bottles, and a lone old-world globe; kitchen tables burnished to "Shabby Chic" perfection; folding chairs hanging from the wall for extra seating; and artwork from some painter no one's ever heard of. The great score here are the couches and cushions up against the front windows; it's better than sidewalk seating, since there's no fear of getting mowed down from frustrated pedestrians. Fadda and Zedda plan to roll out a more expansive menu of light fare in a month or two, adding easy dishes like carpaccio to the caprese salads and cheese platters already in place, as well as simple breakfasts of croissants and coffee. Expect a few jazz nights thrown in there tooathey didn't name the bar after a Thelonious Monk tune for no reason. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.epsteinsbarnyc.com Formerly Living Room, this space is now Epstein's Bar, a low-key tavern that tends to draw in a very college-y crowd. That's to be expected with 25-cent wing specials, $2 plates of fries, and a big plasma-screen TV behind the bar. Apparently the venue is named for Warren Epstein, the Puerto Rican/Jewish Sweathog of "Welcome Back, Kotter"aand ain't a play on Epstein's Barr. Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.esperantony.com The food and music of Brazil is the focus of this funky Alphabet City spot, although several other South American countries get their due. Walk past the tiny tables set up on the sidewalk and into a dining room painted a brilliant array of blues, yellows and greens, complemented by quirky lamps and bric-a-brac. The special prix fixe menu, which includes both an entrée and an appetizer, will save you couple bucks; choose from entrees like the moqueca (seafood cooked in coconut milk and served over rice) and the feijoada (a hearty stew made of different types of pork and black beans) and appetizers such as fried calamari and the house ceviche. Order a passion fruit or mango caipirinha, or choose one of the South American wines, which are all half-priced on Mondays. Most nights you'll also find live music ranging from tango and samba to Latin funk and Brazilian forro music.—Keith Wagstaff Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.essexnyc.com This two-story Lower East Side restaurant has the feel of a gigantic artist's loft, with the hip staff and clientele to match. It's absolutely mobbed on weekend mornings when the brunch crowd comes in hungry for egg dishes and potato pancakes. The dinner menu is contemporary American with international influences: wasabi-encrusted salmon and spicy chipotle pork loin share space with more casual fare like a half-pound Angus burger and a Cuban sandwich. Seats upstairs, illuminated by a large skylight, provide a nice view of the rest of the restaurant. Thirsty? Grab a pitcher of mojitos or Sauza margaritas and start the night out right (the restaurant also has an extensive, moderately priced international wine list and craft beers from all over the country). Dollar oysters and a Tuesday all-you-can-eat deal on mussels and fries make it clear that, despite the sleek décor, this restaurant isn¹t just for those with deep pockets. —Keith Wagstaff Read more about this New York bar or club >>
http://www.eurotripbrooklyn.com The owners of this new Eastern European eatery have worked magic on the space, refurbishing the antique tin ceiling and brick walls, creating a hospitable bar area in front, and a small dining room in back. The menu is heavy on the dumplings and stewed meat, and the bar is stocked with German and Czech beer, Hungarian wines, and Becherovka, an herbal Czech liquor that is shaken into cocktails or sipped straight. Haluky, tiny dumplings tossed with tangy cheese, chives and bacon, have a comforting chew. Shredded celery root salad is aromatic with caraway and enriched with a tart buttermilk dressing.

http://www.excelsiorbrooklyn.com For those unaware, Excelsior ("Ever higher!") has taken New Yorkas state motto for its name. This liquor-serving incarnation of the slogan boasts an expansive, lush outside space with plastic flamingos. Play a few classics on the jukebox, which had Echo and the Bunnymen, the Psychedelic Furs, and INXS, and quaff a fresh, extra boozy ("Ever drunker!") margarita served in a tall pilsner glass. Most of the primarily button-down-shirt-and-khaki-clad bargoers seemed, not surprisingly, to live nearby, judging from the presence of several dogs, who wove among the bar stools and tables begging for a pat on the head.
