Best Date Night Spots in Hell's Kitchen

Hell's Kitchen runs on late nights, piano bars, and intimate corners that nobody planned on staying in so long. The Rum House anchors the neighborhood with candlelit rum cocktails and live piano from noon to midnight. Winnie's Jazz Club fills a tiny room with live jazz and craft cocktails every night. Ardesia is the wine bar where you stop in for one glass and stay for three. These are the spots where a date actually becomes a story.

What's in this collection

  1. The Rum House

    Hell's Kitchen · 228 W 47th St, New York, NY 10036, USA

    You slip off the Edison Hotel lobby into a candlelit room where the piano man is tickling the keys from noon to 4am, every day. The rum list, of course, is deep, and the cocktails are expertly crafted, clean and unfussy…

  2. Winnie's Jazz Club

    Hell's Kitchen · 63 W 38th St, New York, NY 10018, USA

    Prohibition-era cocktail energy without feeling like a costume, backed by a serious American whiskey and Scotch list. Live jazz runs nightly, and the leather-accented bar draws a steady crowd of regulars who treat the h…

  3. Ardesia Wine Bar

    Hell's Kitchen · 510 W 52nd St, New York, NY 10019, USA

    20+ by the glass, 100 by the bottle, skewing mineral, Old World and offbeat New World producers most places skip. The food keeps pace without trying to steal it: salt cod cakes as silver-dollar fritters on frisée, pretz…

  4. Dolly's

    Hell's Kitchen · 302 W 51st St, New York, NY 10019, USA

    Southern comfort spot in Hell’s Kitchen that leans all the way in on the theatrics, the Oldies Old Fashioned lands under a tableside cloud of smoke, and the margarita comes sloshing out of a boot glass. Two levels of vi…

  5. Dutch Freds

    Hell's Kitchen · 307 W 47th St #1, New York, NY 10036, USA

    Mosaic tile floors, portraits of old Hell’s Kitchen fixtures, and black-and-white films flickering on the TVs set the tone. But the cocktails are the real draw here. The Dutch Courage (jenever, celery bitters, lemon) dr…

  6. Medi Wine Bar & Restaurant

    Hell's Kitchen · 811 9th Ave, New York, NY 10019, USA

    Pan-Mediterranean tapas and regional wines spread across three distinct spaces, a lively bar, a candlelit wine cellar, and a secluded back garden that fills fast. The truffle ricotta gnocchi is made fresh daily in small…

  7. Le Rivage

    Hell's Kitchen · 340 W 46th St, New York, NY 10036, USA

    The French Onion Soup Burger, winner of Burger Bash at the NYC Wine & Food Festival, sounds like a gimmick, but it isn’t. Beef Bourguignon and seafood crepes anchor a prix fixe that makes classic French cooking feel acc…

  8. So & So's Piano Bar

    Hell's Kitchen · 302 W 52nd St, New York, NY 10019

    A Hell's Kitchen pressure cooker where Broadway dreams, birthday groups, and aggressively supportive strangers collide around a baby grand. The room runs on show tunes and delusion. By your second drink you’re convinced…

  9. Steak Frites Bistro

    Hell's Kitchen · 496 9th Ave, New York, NY 10018, USA

    A Hell's Kitchen bistro built around the French classics, the steak frites arrives as a thick NY strip with pepper crust, the escargots salad trades shells for buttery baguette and a hit of celery, and the Chateaubriand…

  10. The Woo Woo

    Hell's Kitchen · 266 W 47th St, New York, NY 10036, USA

    Ring the doorbell on the left side of The Mean Fiddler, recite the password from their website, and you're inside an underground 80s Times Square speakeasy with craft cocktails named Morning Wood and Purple Rain. The or…
