Raines Law Room is a great vibe, very friendly attentive service with an extensive fun cocktail menu! The cocktails are perfectly balanced for us, and aren't too spirit forward while being able to taste the flavor of the other ingredients. We came on a weeknight ~7pm with no reservation, and we were able to be seated immediately although it was quite busy!

Great place to get a drink and an intimate conversation. Their drinks are well served and they offer a creative menu, our favorite cocktail was called full of gold. small bites are also available but we didn't try them in this occasion. We came in with no reservation last Saturday night and the hostess was a lovely person who was able to accommodate us within just a couple of minutes, first at the bar and about 30 minutes later we were assigned a table. It was our first time in this bar and I will be encouraging people to try it as it was totally worth it. I would suggest is best to make a reservation in advance because it gets busy.

Also one of my favorite speakeasies and I've been here countless times. The service is always so so good and the drinks are also amazing. If you have another preference that isn't on the menu the servers are very accommodating too. really nice and intimate spot, ideal for a date night or if you're looking to hang out with some friends. However, it's impossible to get a table if you don't have a reservation and they don't have a number you can even call on.

Cocktails were on point, vibe was on point, and service was on point.Firstly and most importantly, the cocktails were great. I especially loved the espresso martini. It was not too bitter, not too sweet, and not too strong-- just perfectly balanced!Secondly, the vibe was really on point. I loved the plush seating areas and how dark and moody the whole bar was-- perfect for a nice date night or night out with the girls!

Raines Law Room in Manhattan is like stepping into a secret club from the Roaring Twenties! The entrance, with its hidden doorbell, makes you feel like you're in on something exclusive and cool.As a person of color, hitting up fancy places in the city can sometimes feel iffy, but Raines Law Room was a breath of fresh air. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly, which instantly put me at ease.Inside, the place is decked out with comfy seats and moody lighting. The snacks they serve are just the right match for their wine selection ( which is limited, but they have amazing cocktails).Raines Law Room isn't just a bar; it's like time-traveling to a classy, inclusive hangout where you're treated like a VIP. It's an awesome spot in Manhattan that's all about great vibes, good drinks, and making everyone feel at home. Shout out to the host V for good vibes and good energy!!

Raine's Law Room is a speakeasy located in Chelsea. We were able to secure a reservation for a group of 6. The menu offered a huge variety of cocktails. I ordered the Kissed by Lightning, a spicy tequila based drink. It was yummy but not super spicy. Overall, yummy drinks!

I've tried many times to get into Raines Law Room... Buzzed the bell, waited, someone took our number and said they will call us back and that callback came just too late (the whole idea created mystery of the inside which grew stronger).Surprisingly on this visit, we were ushered in right away - and oh what a treat!The inside is selectively lit by wall sconces, velvety couches and golden picture moldings give way to warmth all around us (or at least the room we were in).As instructed, we pulled on a buzzer to usher in our server. I was in the mood for something-gin, the waiter recommended a cocktail which was delish. Reflecting on the visit - all the waiters seemed to move in a mechanical way, I'm literally now thinking this - the curiosity starts at the door entrance and continues after exiting.Assuming this establishment has aimed to create suspense, then they have achieved their goal. Quite the speakeasy!

The lounge is so comfy and intimate. All the drinks were so tasty and interesting. Some of my favorite was the peanut butter whisky one and lychee. If you can get a res, must visit.
