Emy MooreAbove the Italian megastore Eataly, you find this rooftop bar and restaurant with a setting like a large beer garden. A bit closed off, so while the view is nice over the close by Flatiron building and the Empire State Building, it's not the best in town. But instead there is a great atmosphere to make up for it. The rooftop has an exiting concept with new pop-up restaurants every now and then, however always with an Italian base. The 2018 season will see the roof turn into an Italian countryside restaurant where you can enjoy down to earth Italian dishes and a large set of drinks, like biodynamic wines from Italy and New York, craft beers and housemade botanic-infused cocktails.
