Amazing views , cocktail prices as high as the buildings you can see. Dinner menu is limited. Better for drinks and snacks than a full meal

Bitches Who Brunch

The Bitches say: A+. It’s true what they say–Rainbow Room serves one of the best brunches in the city . While it may be best saved for a special occasion , brunching here is truly an iconic experience. Read more

David Milberg

Came for brunch . It was excellent. They have an open buffet as well as a menu to order off of. Come on a VERY empty stomach and with company so you can try a bit of everything. Staff was also amazing.

Rainbow Room is super open with insane 360degree views of the city and stunning interior design . Totally worth its high expenses if you want to celebrate something really special and decadent

Gothamist

The legendary Rainbow Room is reopening today. There will be a festive Sunday brunch in addition to Monday night dinners with live performances open to the public. Sun, 10/5. Read more

The tenderloin was hot and very good but I was tired of pouring my own wine and water. They leave a bottle of water on the table but at $350 total per person we did not expect to serve ourselves water

Joseph Eyles

The Manhattan and the Staten Island cocktails are great with amazing views across the city . Try the Yuzu Spritz too

Meredith Blechman

The much-hyped re-opening did not disappoint. The space offers the most incredible view of the city that never sleeps. The staff was incredibly attentive - service rivaled a Danny Meyer restaurant

Lida Wang

Came for Sunday brunch , left me speechless. Be warned that the brunch service is 150 plus tax, but is so complete you can either try the buffet or order eggs Benedict . Formal attire is required.

Jazzie Chanel

Always have a great time here. Beautiful drinks, great service! Get the fries

Alex Fish

The views are impeccable. Amazing food, amazing service, worth the price

James H.

Oysters Rockefeller were so heavily breaded it was difficult to fine the oyster . We wished they could could have found the wine we ordered so it could have come before the first course. Poor on servic

Julie Soscia

Go here for the brunch or generally for amazing city views over a meal or cocktails at night time.

Every bread choice was perfectly done and delicious.

Lobster pot pie was so good and full of lobster chunks.

Amazing Manhattan view with nice coctails .

Emilie Futterman

Fabulous views of the city , in a splendid room. Check out the chandeliers !

James H.

They had a party of 25 last night so our server explained they were stretched to cover it.

Marek

Upscale sunday brunch with a jazz band playing, proper attire required (prix fixe $95)

James H.

Four gras terrine was okay but not a great presentation. Music was so loud it was not possible to talk. It was almost a Latin but it would have been nice to have a few slow numbers.

Julie Soscia

Go here for the cocktails and enjoy over amazing city views .

Krystyna

Save room for dessert , they have cheese on the menu!

James H.

Beet salad looked wonderful and tasted great.

Guy with a tie drink and chicken/steak!

Alberto Simon

great view , overpriced drinks

Sujy

service was not up to par with the environment or the prices. I ordered a drink and they forgot a key ingredient. Rather than replacing my drink they brought me the ingredient in a cup.

🌈Champagne Brunch 🌈

Rebecca Mazza

Drinks are weak and way overpriced. The food is good but nothing to write home about for that price.

Łukasz Dziel

Can be, nothing special.

James H.

Very disappointing evening. Okay food but awful service.

James H.

We had been to rainbow room before and loved it. This was not a good night but at their prices every night should be great. Having a big party interfere with other patrons service is not an excuse.

Sigifredo Gonzalez

Un lugar especial excelente vista, ambiente de lo mejor y muy lujoso !!!
