What People Are Saying About Session 73

In Short
Amid the onslaught of sports bars in the East 70s, a live-music venue is a rarity. At snazzy-yet-casual Session 73, lights hang from long chords over the copper-topped bar. Patrons settle into velvet banquettes, order snacks from the bar menu and occasionally catch a glimpse of local sports heroes and "Saturday Night Live" cast members, but the focus here is on the nonstop nightly lineup of live pop and rock.

Have you had the Trio burgers at this place? They have to be the best in the city. I recently had a party there in the front lounge and probably ate 12 of them myself. Dinning room staff rocked. I asked the manager if he could send out more for our party and he kindly obliged at no additional cost. The staff at this bar is so helpful that when I forgot my bag at the end of the night and called to retrieve, they sent an employee over to my apartment with it and attached a thank you note for hosting my party there. Talk about service....I would give this establishment 3 thumbs up (if I had an extra thumb)!!!

A resident of the Upper east Side for 10 years , I have known Session 73 since the beginning . They were my courteous neighbour when I lived on 73rd , way before I became a customer. Frequenting the spot on a regular basis for the past few years , I feel it offers something different and much needed Upper East Side : live music at least 5 nights a week ( from Tango to Salsa to acoustic guitar, to rock, ), great bites to share ( I love the chicken trio !! ) a great cafe in the summer , a warm and inviting dining room conducive to conversation, a fun effective and welcoming staff ( courteous security staff, fun and attractive bartenders, amazing wait staff ) a large space where you can gather lots of friends ... It should also be said that when in need of putting together a fundraiser , management right away jumped on the occasion and showed that they truly care and know how to give back to their community... I am a fan , and feel that Session 73 is an option everynight of the week !! meet with a friend to catch up around a good glass of wine , get together a larger group to celebrate a birthday on the end of a work day , need to hear some great music ... Just give it a try you will not be disappointed ... I know I am not and have converted fellow Upper eastsider as well as friends from the 5 boroughs ...
