Soho is where you come when the reservation matters. These spots deliver on atmosphere, whether you're after Paris brasserie energy, jazz lounge lighting, or a hidden cocktail bar tucked above the cobblestones.
Soho · 180 Prince St, New York, NY 10012, USA
That steak au poivre aroma — peppercorn, stock, and sherry — permeates the room before you've sidled up to the bar. The dark booths are perfect for dates but the bar is great for a friendly conversation with someone you…
Soho · 80 Spring St, New York, NY 10012, USA
Red leather banquettes, antique mirrors stacked floor to ceiling, and a room that sounds exactly like a Paris brasserie circa 1995 — loud, crowded, perfect. The French onion soup and the raw seafood tower have both been…
Soho · 199 Prince St, New York, NY 10012
A snug Soho wine bar tucked into the backstreets, where the lighting’s soft, the leather-bound wine list feels like a novel, and the bartenders pour with knowing smiles like they’ve just opened your favorite bottle ahea…

Soho · 58 Thompson St, Floor 2, New York, NY 10012
Hidden on the second floor of the Manner Hotel, this jewel-toned cocktail bar feels like drinking inside an antique gilded lacquer box — deep reds, rich greens, gold leaf behind the bar, patterned rugs underfoot, and ja…
