Ask for a side of 21 Sauce, a spicy blend of ketchup, English mustard, Worcestershire, horseradish and white wine, the sauce has been a signature staple for over 60 years. Via CityEats.com Leia mais
The chicken hash — a mixture of cubed chicken, cream, Worcestershire sauce, eggs, butter, and sherry — is a real throwback to a different era. It’s pure, pull-no-punches comfort food. Leia mais
Wine cellar dining room is a great private space with tour of history. All menu items are solid but nothing shines. Wine pairing and service were excellent.
Just a cool old-school NYC experience. Mark at the bar is great. I liked the Fireside. Lump crabmeat, lamb bolognese, clam chowder, steak frites, all excellent. Baked Alaska just ok but cool visuals.
Restaurant week is the way to do this place... but don't expect superior service. All three courses were great (shrimp arrabbiata pictured) and price can't be beat, but service did suffer a tad 🍤🍷🙃
Ask your waiter about touring the spectacular hidden wine cellar in the basement, which was used to hide booze during Prohibition. It's this place's semi-secret gem.
The Wine Cellar Dinner Menu is reserved for private events in an intimate setting, and the resulting food-gasm is incomparable. Hackleback caviar, butter-poached lobster, sautéed duck breast, oh my!
Prohibition may be over, but the bar remains as intriguing as ever. Pro tip: Take in the large art collection and toys hanging from the ceiling as you sip on a gin rickey. Leia mais
It may be stuffy, but if old-school, Don Draper Manhattan is your thing, there's nowhere better. And much of the food is still quite good. At lunch, get three courses for $24.
The martini here is an unsung hero of the hip NYC mixology scene—big and dry, like Charles Grodin in drink form, it floats to you in a glass so capacious there ought to be a goldfish swimming in it. Leia mais
1872 townhouse. Former historic speakeasy (now a trendy restaurant). The prohibition era wine cellar is now a dining area accessed via 2.5 ton door opened via 18" hang wire.Full site history via<LINK> Leia mais
The lounge's dark wood paneling, fireplace, Frederic Remington horse paintings, the low lighting, and the men in suits and ties—despite a recent loosening of the dress code—still beckon another age. Leia mais
This place is very chic and full of history. Super gracious hosts. Wear a suit jacket and be prepared to drink your martinis with sophistication and composure — the first two, at least ... Leia mais
On everyone's top ten lists. Kicking it old school here will just enhance whatever you decide to do later....Roseland is nearby...always a great time there. Order the cheesecake to go.
One of the supposed birthplaces of the Southside cocktail, made with gin, lime, simple and mint. Also nice if you are craving a classic NY experience and throwback to another era.
Vegetarians should not shy away from this New York tradition. They have a very nice *on menu* vegie plate that doesn't feel like an afterthought. And thank the universe cocktails are still vegetarian.
Outstanding food and service. A fantastic and classic New York establishment that embraces the history of this city and the people who live here. And the burger really IS that good.
I absolutely love 21! I feel apart of history sitting where Frank Sinatra once did… plus there is something so romantic about a REAL prohibition speakeasy! Leia mais

More for the atmosphere and its legacy than its food. The Prawn for appetizer is good but nothing too special, and the Amish chicken is a little dry and very mediocre
We love the decor at 21 Club almost as much as we love the menu. Let us suggest two things. Get dressed up and see "Bethany", then come to the 21 Club Bar!
Manhattan's iconic "21" Club will reopen this fall after a major refurbishment, which will add a brand-new bar area. The reopening will bring 21 wines by the glass, small plates & 6 beers on tap.
Establishments do not stay in business for 9 plus decades without a formula for success. This historical Manhattan restaurant has the right recipe for special occasions.
The key to power lunching is landing the right table, the left section of the dining room is preferred and the right, known as “Siberia” to it’s regulars, is by no means coveted.
Originally in The Village in 1922. Moved and changed names until its current location in 1929. Frequented by presidents & celebrities. Featured in novels. Jacket required.
In June of 1932, "21" Club was raided by federal Prohibition agents in search of liquor. Agents failed to find the two thousand cases of wine hidden in 21 Club's secret wine cellar vault...
