What People Are Saying About Social
The Owner
Social
Owner
Occupying 3 enormous & well-realized floors in the hottest section of Hell's Kitchen, this newcomer combo won't be hard to find. In the back of the 1st floor sits a sensible & roomy collection of tables where generous helpings from a full-service kitchen supports Social's exertion as a formidable all purpose haunt. A staircase that's been thoughtfully accented leads to a 2nd floor, which marks a half way point between the leisurely neighborhood dynamic of the first floor's pub & the VIP vibe of the 3rd floor's Fusion lounge. The west side of the second floor staircase houses an "Irish room"…

In Short – On the first floor, exposed brick walls and dimly lit chandeliers lend a bit of class, while the four big screen televisions solidify Social's neighborhood status. After work, the sounds of hip-hop and pop competes with the chatter of 20- to 40-somethings. Venture to the second and third floors for more drinking options, or to the fourth floor, Fusion, for lounging. Ten tap beers, 13 bottle beers, wine and mixed drinks are served, plus an affordable food menu.
Neighborhood Bar
by llmoon at Citysearch
I frequent this bar often, either with friends on the weekends or with co-workers (I work 3 blocks away), and everytime I'm here, I have a really nice time. This place is lovely, and the staff is really friendly, not to mention the food --- oh, the sliders (yummy!) and the burgers (my favorite is the cajun). What I like about it is that they make you feel right at home, maybe that is why I keep coming back:). Whether I come in during lunch or happy hour, this bar is always rockin'...thanks for the good times!
- Pros: Friendly, Neighborhood Bar, Reasonably Priced
- Cons: N/A
Great Private Party
by dhann2 at Citysearch
I recently had a private party again at Social, and we had a wonderful evening. For the second straight year our event was a success. Social once again went above and beyond and we greatly appreciate everything the staff did for us. I lost count of how many times the manager came upstairs to check in and make sure things were going well. Our bartender was just amazing and I would certainly ask for her again next year.
We will definitely be planning another party at Social.
- Pros: staff
Fun atmosphere!
by ksdiva at Citysearch
I came with some out of town friends and they couldn't stop talking about how fun this place was! We came for dinner and a few cocktails and ended up coming back the next night. Our waitress was really sweet and recommended some great food! When we moved to the bar our bartender was a lot of fun. He was making jokes and doing goofy dance moves behind the bar. We had a great time! I will definitely be back with more friends!
- Pros: atmosphere
