Let me start out by saying that everyone already knows the view is great...who cares. every level of the service chain is terrible. I have no problem paying 13 dollars for a drink if it's made well. This place gives you dirty, disgusting, unclean glassware. I know for a fact that they do not put their glasses through a dishwasher the bartenders simply take them out of the bus bins and rinse them out with soda water. basically what i am saying is 230 fifth is a breeding ground for disease. Lets move on to the owner, the legendary Steven A. Greenberg. When I say that this man is the most disgusting, repulsive human being I have ever encountered, I say it with no reservation. Besides terminating employees for no reason the man is overtly prejudice against people of color and regularly will have african american patrons removed by security. the man hires a new asian escort every week. If you want to give your money to an evil man, go to 230 fifth for a crappy cocktail, i would ask for it in a disposable cup.

An expansive deco penthouse lounge and tropical wraparound rooftop, both with views to envy.  See the full editorial review.
