Coming from a country where smoking is prohibited in bars, it was disappointing that the NY Bar was so full of tobacco stench. The drinks are about the prices that you would expect in a bar like this, but beware the 13% "service charge" added to the bill (to be fair it is posted on the drinks menu). WIne markups... More

Had dinner here in the evening. The view of the park and surrounding area was wonderful. Staff had great english and since I was with a local, switched back and forth effortlessly between languages. Enjoyed the lamb with fresh asparagus. Dessert was pavlova with FRESH mangos. Terrific!

Food is okay, the wine is absolutely, stupidly expensive, so much so that is ruins everything else about the place for me. A two or three-times markup on retail is acceptable, a 5-10 times markup is definitely NOT. Most recent visit a bottle we drank at a similar sort of sport for about 3X retail, was 5X that price at...

I was told that spending an evening at the New York Bar was a 'must do' experience while in Tokyo, so on our last night we decided to try it out by combing it with a stay at the Park Hyatt in which the bar is located (which is a fantastic hotel, but I shall leave that for another review).... More

As above, yes the view is great and yes the atmosphere is nice. But if you are not a guest, you have to pay 22$ for the cover plus 20$ per drink or 11$ for a beer.. Go to Peak Bar instead.. quieter perhaps but almost same view and who cares whether it was or not in the movie! this... More

The view is great but I feel it is overpriced for what you get. Smoky atmosphere, extremely poor acoustics and high prices left me less than satisfied. The cover charge was an insult - for a band that may have been good but the acoustics of the room did little to enhance the sound. I have not seen "Lost in... More

Expensive, even for Tokyo, decent cocktails though and a great view as well as feeling the magic of being in the bar in "Lost in Translation"

The highlight of this bar is that it appeared in the movie "Lost In Translation". I'm a big fan so I needed to have a drink. There is a 20 dollar cover charge, but it's worth it. The jazz band was beautiful. You pay the fame of the bar. The view is spectacular. They gave us the best table, right... More

Nothing special if you are staying at the hotel as your room will offer the same view more or less. Drinks are obviously very expensive and the bar can be quite smokey which is not ideal. Jazz is nice though, and there's also a cover charge if you are not staying at the hotel. The hotel is well worth staying... More
