LilliStar

I've been wanting to visit to this place for a while. Finally decided to go with my free tickets before 11:30 on a Saturday. Little did I know this place was nestled on the rooftop of the Moxy Hotel. I love The Moxy So I was excited!!! The place was giving modern and upscale vibes. The drinks were very pricey my friend bought three shots of Hennessy $20 a piece. I bought 2 Long Island iced teas for $20 each as well. The bartender can't remember his name was so cool with us. The energy on the dance floor was there (at least for my friends and I) the DJ was poppin'. I literally had the best time in a long time dancing the whole night away, when I got home my feet were tired. Lol GREAT night will definitely Recommend & I will Definitely return!

Went for Peak & Pace's social so I'm unsure how it is on a regular day. But, I'll speak on my experience. Service- I got there around 10pm and it was pretty spacious. I went to the bar and ordered orange wine. Bartender stated he didn't have any so I asked for the red blend on the menu- he said he'd check. Prior to this I was waiting for a few minutes (even though there weren't many people ordering because the bartenders were dancing with a girl). Let's have a good time, but can I get my drink? I let that go, but when They finally came back it was the wrong order. At the end, I got the right order comped as a courtesy for the wait which I really appreciated. Ambiance- place is cute with pastel colors, funky light fixtures and an outdoor roof area. The outdoor area is nice, but needed heaters or fire pits because it's chilly at night. The inside got packed and they kept the door open which helped with airflow. There were three djs near a seated area for bottle service. They played house, reggae, soca, r&b and some old school. I had a good time.

I'm not sure why this place has reviews that are below average. It's a fairly nice rooftop joint that's casual. No fuss or muss here. They don't enforce a dresscode so that's good. There's seating and standing areas here as well. I went with a group of people on a nice spring day when there was a popup fashion event. I got to speak with some people working the event, and it was cool. I was just hearing about their work since I don't have IG. They do have food items and drinks (mainly alcoholic drinks) on their menu. There's nonalcoholic drinks, too. Got the non-alcoholic spritz and the ice cream. The ice cream was really good. I enjoyed it a lot and would've gotten a second serving if it wasn't for the cost. I didn't taste the rose petals, but the pistachios stood out for me. I would like to return again.

The vibe is cute. I went for a casual pride dj event on a Thursday. Decor is cute. Drinks were good, and servers were nice. They have indoor and outdoor rooftop seats.

Pretty Low key rooftop for Moxy Hotel. A good spot to come with friends last minute. The cocktails are pretty good and creative for a rooftop bar. FRIED PICKLES & RANCH and NANA PUDDING were my favs

Located in the Moxy hotel but not affiliated, the rooftop is nice but don't expect the same decor as other Moxy's. Staff is friendly and attentive Limited food menu, not many recognizable liquor brands. We ordered tequila shots multiple times and they kept giving us mezcal. The cocktails are good and very instagramable but weak Jell-O shot flight was great, cute presentation Food- guac is served with a wafer type chip that has a fishy tasteNoodles had a overwhelming peanut taste Bao, wings, & cauliflower are good Music is very low key, like elevator music.

This place has been trending on Tiktok/IG.. and well, quite frankly I was drawn to what it seemed like. You take an elevator up to the rooftop bar. We were there around 7:30/8 pm on a Saturday night. I think they write online that the limit your table time to a certain duration of 1.5 hours but no one really came up to us to tell us to leave when we stayed past that time. There was plenty of plush seating and the space is beautiful. I liked how our table was just by the border of the outside area and the inner- so definitely inquire about that when you make a reservation. I also liked how they have female DJ's so the music is pretty good though music volume is loud. Now to the cons. Service is slow and we found out at the end that gratuity is already included so they have no inclination to serve you well. Our server was slow to respond to our requests and had to be reminded about certain things.. We did not feel like she really put in the effort to seem like she cared to pay attention to us at all.This place also catered to people in their 20's mostly. My friend and I are in our 30's.. ended up feeling bored, and saw lots of awkward dates/bachelorette gatherings during the time span we were there. Here's another thing. All the drinks we ordered had a smoky taste to it. We joked that it had to do with the Canadian wildfires going on... but clearly that wasn't it. Otherwise, aesthetically they did a good job. The Wu wave is blue-- looks like a fishbowl with an actual plastic toy sea creature inside (kinda can't go wrong with St. Germain but it's gonna be a smoky one- you were forewarned), and Quiver was a beautiful tropical pink with the dragonfruit and lychee tones.

Since we were staying at the Moxy we decided to check out the Lillistar for brunch on a Saturday. It's a little weird in that in order to get to the roof (of the Moxy) and the restaurant it's required that you exit the hotel, and take 2 quick rights to get to the elevator which takes you to the roof (although it's the service elevator of the hotel). It's a gorgeous space, with a great view and a number of tables outfitted with large umbrellas. In looking at the menu, it doesn't seem to be very brunchy. There are no eggs anywhere and no juices so there are no mimosas or bloody marys. Perhaps a better name would be day drinking with snacks hahahaha.That said, we had a couple glasses of wine and split some of the small plates available. The guacamole came with corn chips rather than the papadum chips advertised. It was a solid basic recipe. The crudite was endive, carrots, and cucumbers with a nice raita. The cauliflower was fried nicely in a curry sauce. Yum!

LilliStar is a trendy new cocktail bar at the rooftop of the Moxy in Williamsburg, and they know what they are doing!The cocktails are fantastic - I had their take on a spicy margarita, and it was delicious. I also had their spin on a Moscow Mule, and again - really unique and tasty.The guacamole with plantain chips was phenomenal, an unexpected bonus to a night out for drinks.The atmosphere is a bit clubby, with dim lighting and a DJ. But still, the chill cocktail vibe manages to persevere, and it's a nice place for a date or for small groups. AMAZING views of midtown Manhattan too, with lots of floor-to-ceiling windows and a nice patio. Make sure to book a reservation in advance, otherwise you'll be relegated to standing room by the bar.Definitely recommend this place, especially in nice weather!

Beautiful spot with super clean bathrooms but they charged $8 for a super watered down Sprite, $8!!!!! If soda is that watered down, I can't imagine how bad the alcoholic drinks are.
