The classic martini is straight-up perfection. So smooth and *just* the right mix of gin or vodka with vermouth. Honorable mention is their Specialty Martini, they've got some cool twists that make any martini hater change their mind
Monkey Bar
Maison Premier's martini is nothing short of an experience. Don't be surprised when the whole bar stares with envy as your drink comes out on a silver platter.
Maison Premiere
Dante is known for having some of the best dirty martinis in NYC. Pro-tip: go for their martini hour from 3pm-5pm to get $10 dirty martinis with their signature giant olives on the side
Dante NYC
Shinji's has a super unique take on the dirty martini. No olive brine, instead they freeze-dry olives and infuse belvedere vodka with them. The drop of olive oil makes the martini picture-perfect and smooth down to the last sip.
Shinji's
Upscale restaurant in West Village with a perfect little bar to grab a drink with friends. I love their espresso martini because its made with tequila which in my opinion brings our such a nice flavor with the coffee! The perfect drink before going o...
Saint Theo's
Vibey lil lounge that is giving all-time NYC sexy cocktail bar energy. Definitely try the house martini known for being smooth & balanced. The bartenders there are experts and they put a unique spin on the classic martini.
Martiny’s
Now this… this is my all time favorite martini I have ever tried in NYC. I literally dream about the caprese martini. It may sound weird at first, but they mimic the taste of caprese perfectly by adding olive oil, tomato and basil-infused grey goose ...
Jac's on Bond
Known for their perfectly crafted martinis - they have 15 variations to choose from that are guaranteed to please any taste. My personal favorite is the “martini by the sea” made with mezcal and sea lettuce brine. Absolute perfection.
Madeline's Martini
One of the best espresso martinis I've ever had. Perfectly creamy and made with freshly brewed Italian coffee beans - **chefs kiss**
Bar Pisellino
The Mulberry's dirty martini is a flavorful twist on the classic dirty martini. They made their olive brine in-house and the olive garnish is almost as good as the drink itself. We love a drink with a lil snack included!
The Bar on Mulberry
A cult-favorite espresso martini. This one has never disappointed me. Plus, the vibes at the bar at American Bar are immaculate.
American Bar - New York
Once voted the best dirty martini in NYC, this classy piano bar has the ambiance to match how good the drinks are.
The Nines
The CUTEST bar in tribeca. So cozy - definitely try their dirty martini or an espresso martini which are also bomb
Tiny's & The Bar Upstairs
Highly recommend ordering “dukes martini” which is served extra-chilled with a giant ice cube
