American Whiskey

This place is a nice spot to meet up with people near-ish to Penn Station. The ambience is nice and you're pleasantly greeted at the front door. It's good for groups or just the two of you. Plenty of TVs playing that days sports and a good draft list.Why they didn't get 5-stars: Price: Be ready to pay a lot here. The value is not equal to the portion size and the food is OKAY. We were excited for the cheese curb bites, but they arrived slightly hot and not very crispy.Service: I felt for the waitress because she was taking care of most of the restaurant, so I gave her a pass that she was very busy. The crowd died down though and she never came around once the food was served!

Decided to meet a friend here prior to a Knicks game. It's in a great location for that and the staff was so kind. I arrived solo and it was tough to get seating, but the lady at front quickly cleaned out some chairs for me and my friend. There's a happy hour menu and if you're into whiskey cocktails, everything was good. Great pregame spot for Madison Square Garden. It does get crowded but once game starts, it empties out.

A great fun place to watch a ball game. They have great pizza, cheeseburger sliders and buffalo wings. Their service is friendly and energetic. Location is great just south of Madison Square Gardens.

Outstanding service at American Whiskey. Reservations taken and the table was ready when I arrived. Plenty of room for your MSG pregame activities. Definitely a fantastic NY Rangers bar with a huge following. The Rangers were on the road for their playoff game and you would have thought it was pregame for the Rangers at the Garden. Great vibes.Loved their private barrel of Eagle Rare, bummed they wouldn't sell me a bottle. Excellent Bourbon, whiskey selections.Cocktails were great. Food was a mixed bag, Brussel sprouts were ok and the poutine wasn't good....I think the chicken gravy ruined them. All in all a good experience, I will try something different next time. Great spot for their variety of Whiskey.

American Whiskey, woohoo! I never knew there were so many bourbon and whiskeys in one venue. I swear they have like 28 different brands of Rye. The food is definitely slept on here - the panko crusted chicken tenders are probably the best I've had in NYC because they're extra extra extra crunchy. They totally perfected that crunch factor while keeping the meat piping hot and moist in my opinion. Idk what the dipping sauce was but it was super sweet and spicy and automatically comes with it. Get those tenders on top of their kale Caesar and order the specialty cocktail called "Strike Me Dead" and you are SET! I get this exact combination every time but need to deviate soon and try new things. There's also a huge upstairs "loft" area with another bar. Private parties probably? Really cool to watch the Rangers game at or like myself I go prior to pregame before hitting up Madison Square Garden since this place is only 1 block away.

This is a decent sized bar with upstairs space available for private parties. It's a sports bar, but has a bit of charm to it. I came for a group event. We reserved two tables opposite the bar. Servers were helpful and attentive. They accommodated individual tabs and bills for guests, which was very appreciated. Their sweet potato fries were perfectly airy and crispy. Definitely a hit with our group. I didn't try the sliders, but folks seemed to enjoy those as well. The mini grilled cheese sandwiches had a nice, slightly crunchy top layer. They provided carafes of water for easy refills. We over-ordered and they gave us plenty of to-go containers and bags so the food didn't go to waste. On a Tuesday, it was initially a bit crowded with pre-gamers for the Rangers game at nearby MSG, but it cleared out quickly around 7. They started playing loud-ish dance music as the evening went on, so depending on when you go, it may be a bit hard to hold a conversation.

Loud, larcenous and lethargic. If you're in the mood to overpay and scream over The Stones and AC/DC prior to an event at The Garden, you're home. Oh, the place is nice enough, a combination cowboy/sports bar but the protein puck stealthily disguised as a cheeseburger might have been extremely useful on the Rangers power play later in the evening.It's NYC so the overpay is not nearly as frustrating as waiting nearly an hour for any whiff of our order tied to a payment kiosk where gratuities start at an absolute 20%. I suspect indifference has a price. Two stars for location.

I can't say much about this bar as I was here for a party in the upstairs private section. But what I will say is that there are many tvs in this bar, high ceilings and many tables to choose from. The downstairs bar is also big. When I walked in it was not crowded at all which is a bit strange as there was a Rangers game going on. The music here is great, though on the loud side for sure which is not my cup of tea really. Our bartender we had was good and nice.

Full of Rangers fans yesterday but there was a quiet table in the back. Servers hard to flag down but otherwise friendly. Food was abysmal. Chicken wings with BBQ sauce -dry as leather. Nachos with duck confit- stale nachos and microscopic slivers of dry duck and barely any toppings. Drinks were good - old fashions were strong but for $17 they'd better be.

I was looking for a fun place to go near penn station and this place never diappoints. The food is great and the staff is friendly. We planned on just going for drinks and apps but ended up staying for dinner too. I highly reccomend this place if your looking for somewhere near MSG or Penn Station.Best,Phil
