Level R

empireWe remember hitting long time hot spot Empire Hotel back in college. The past can stay in the past now, because the 8,000 sq foot rooftop has been newly revamped. The convertible rooftop will be retracted soon to put on display the most beautiful sight of the Upper West Side you can get without having your own penthouse suite. We don't remember there being lobster rolls or shrimp tempura last time we went, and we could have sworn the seating wasn't as comfortable as it looks now. We can't wait to revisit an old flame.
