This place is absolutely beautiful. The venue is great, the crowd was great. The DJ was great. Thank you to Indayo for making it a really fun night! Can't wait for your next partyyy

This spot opened a few weeks ago so hurry and check it out before it gets crowded . Beautiful view of the Empire State Building , chill atmosphere, and easy to get in!

Rewan Parti

Get here early to avoid paying for tabs or table service. They have small bathrooms so usually there is a 20-30 minute waiting. Drinks are pricey but the music and view is great. Try their Moscow mule

Ambiance, drinks, view and crowd are the keys to a successful rooftop and Monarch has them all! Definitely an upscale lounge you wanna stop in to grab a great cocktail and some great tapas-esque food

Armelle De Oliveira

I think it’s the best view on the Empire State Building in Manhattan. The white wine is a disgrace but my sister enjoyed the mini chicken burger bites. Sweet potatoes fries made me sick.

On a nice Tuesday it's packed by 5pm. The deck area has far too few umbrellas; you will melt. $16+ cocktails , but they're tasty. Hot crowd & great views , however. Surprisingly easy to get in.

Stephanie DeDecker

Boasts great views of the city , get there early or try and make a reservation to get a good table by the outside corner

Marius

Nice rooftop bar ! A little bit pricey but the view is worth it. Drinks are very strong!

Paula Lessa

Nice place, well decorated with a beautiful view of the empire state building and 6th avenue. Good drinks, friendly service .

Justin Barton

Had my engagement party here last week. The space is amazing and management was very helpful in making everything be perfect for our event

Jess Fargo

Went for my girls birthday party hosted by Indayo & WOW the view is AMAZING!! The crowd was chill but hyped. Indayo hooked us up with drinks & beats all night. My feet STILL hurt! lol

Michelle C

Lady Lychee is tasty. We got moved to another less comfortable spot right in front of a speaker because we didn't have a reservation , and the drinks were a bit overpriced. Definitely not for locals!

Grace Ladyecua

Great rooftop view of NYC. (Be aware that smoking IS allowed on the rooftop .)

Lauren Alexa

Love the view from up here! They have a good cocktail selection . Definitely my favorite Manhattan lounge .

Julio Baerga

The NYC skyline view is AMAZING, the pretentious gays not so much. Best when you go with a group of friends and ignore your surroundings.

Nadia IssaBella

Epic views . Good selection of wine .

Caroline Deng

Beautiful rooftop views and lounge , and it's right next to the Empire State ! Coat check is $3 and drinks are pricey .

Karl With A "K"

The views of the Empire State Building are amazing! Great cocktails and delicious, scrumptious appetizers .

Amanda Smith

First rooftop bar I have been to in NYC and the view of the Empire State Building is stunning, bartenders were very friendly !

Ruben Guerrero

Saturday night bridge and tunnel crowd meets two star hotel NYC tourists . No worries, urkel the promoter keeps the crowd in check...even when there's no line .

Rena Yisi

Been there few times, nice ppl, and the view is great at nights. After work, grab drinks w friends, chilling.

Monarch turnt up be TOO real! Rooftop view , live DJ's & liqs all night. Easy to get in! Def check this NYC gem out!

If you're from Manhattan this spot is NOT for you. Good view but Over priced mediocre food all in tiny portions. Drinks are tiny and pricey even for Manhattan . Crowd is bridge and tunnel and or tacky .

Natasha Zuluaga

Great place in an odd part of town . Great for an after work drink!

Cool space with great views of ESB, but cocktails are dumb expensive .

The midtown location sucks but this place has a huge, beautiful seating area and lovely views .

Sanjay Tourani

Great view of the Empire state building .

Ina Li

It's only nice because of it's location and night views . But apart from that, crowded tables, cheesy music and overpriced mediocre drinks.

Shane N.

Dope spot. Great view . Kinda pricy but it's expected due to the location.

Amazing views and great music but the bathroom line is INSANE.

Manoj Ambalavanan

clubby yet luxurious rooftop - will need to return in the summer

Good view and the ambiance during happy hour time (before 10pm). Afterwards gets crowded and disgusting.
