Flatiron, Manhattan · bar
A pre-war cellar tucked beneath 23rd Street (exposed brick, low light, and a room that never shed its Prohibition bones) with a cocktail program that’s landed on the World's 50 Best Discovery list. The Jagged In Mexico Old Fashioned reads like a dare (peanut butter and butterscotch) but lands exactly right. The $95 tasting menu closes with a bespoke drink built to your exact preferences, dialed in on the fly.
Crispy risotto balls, golden outside, creamy inside — best pick from the small food menu
Fiery bar bite — the kitchen highlight and bartenders recommend pairing with the cocktails
Bourbon old fashioned with peanut butter & butterscotch — sounds wrong, tastes right
