The Stayton Room

Drinks here are OVERPRICED. Two Manhattans cost us around $65 which included a lot of taxes. Server was very nice.

Great signature cocktails! Warm and friendly vibe, and the service is on point!

The Lexington hotel is a nice place. The Stayton bar however is just meh. They are way too impressed with themselves and the drinks are way over priced for the quality, even for NYC. Drinks are a min of $25 and they automatically include the gratuity so service isn’t that great.

Brandi is amazing! She anticipates your needs, is extremely friendly and nice, and provides top quality service. Highly recommend.

Unless you're staying at the hotel with the bar credit, I can't imagine going here. A coworker walked me back to the hotel and I did not feel like venturing back out to find dinner. I grabbed a seat at the bar and the server was not interested in engaging. Finally I found the little QR code for the menu and ordered a cocktail and quesadilla. I got the lychee martini which was very one dimensional, I would not recommend it and certainly not at $25 a pop. The chicken quesadilla came out piping hot but had no flavor, like none. I asked for the check and provided my credit card. There was an auto gratuity of 18% so the worst meal I've had in this city (in 9 months) came to $63+. Only after talking with a friendly couple was I told that if I put it on my room, then there is a credit. I'm not sure if that was true but I can safely say, neither of the items were worth the cost or calories.

The prices are absolutely crazy. Two bar rail, G&Ts were over $50 USD. As a Canadian, $75 for two drinks is a bit ridiculous.

That said the bar is beautiful and the music is tight.

This place is such a vibe. Maybe it was just the night I stopped in for a drink but the bar was full with a rather engaging crowd and stocked with enthusiastic bartenders. Loved the jazz and the general ambiance of the place. Doesn't hurt the cocktail was good too - a French 75 with cognac, which I hadn't expected to like as much as I did. Classic NYC hotel bar prices though, so keep that in mind.

I love the vintage feel of this restaurant. We are staying in the Lexington Hotel and my son loved the pizza so much that he wanted it two nights in a row. I liked the ambiance so I didn’t say no. There was a band playing in the lobby which made our meal even more amazing. The waitstaff is also very friendly.
