Came solo on a work trip to NYC and loved it. Had a quick bite and one of the best cocktails of my life. Bartender was awesome! Will definitely return next time I’m in NYC!

I love Katana Kitten. After my recent visit this week, I felt compelled to leave a review. Shout out to the wonderful staff, including Tori, who were all so attentive. There was a man taking care of us as well, I didnt get his name but should have. He directed us to the calamari and popcorn chicken on the menu that were both PERFECT bar bites.

I now have a ritual that starts with their amaretto sour. Its a grown up version of the sugary sweet drink I ordered in my early 20s. I often do a melon lime soda second and if i have a third in me, i leave my last drink as a wild card. I’ve never been disappointed.

Most recently, I treated a friend to a birthday drink and he has become a fan too.

Also want to shout out the Best Friends cocktail as a less sweet option.

It’s such a great spot.

Excellent drinks in a 90’s vibe, singing my childhood to me. Our bartender (Devon?) was awesome and gave us a list of his favorite bars in the city. A++ hospitality. Will return soon for more drinks and to try some of the food

An amazing experience thanks to Lauren .
From the very first moment we walked in, her attention, vibe, and energy made everything truly delightful ✨. The drinks were outstanding, crafted with a level of skill and flavor that was truly surprising .

Lauren radiates a unique energy that makes you feel comfortable and well taken care of at all times. The atmosphere of the place is already incredible, but with her service it becomes even more special.

Without a doubt, a wonderful experience that I 100% recommend. Thank you, Lauren, for making the night unforgettable!

I’ve heard so much about Katana Kitten and finally got to visit! The atmosphere here is super lively and fun. We were not able to make a reservation, but we were lucky to get seats at the bar, where we could watch the bartenders work their magic and even chat with them a bit. We ordered some food and drinks — the nori fries were tasty and went perfectly with the drinks. As for the cocktails, I highly recommend the Highball, especially the Shiso Highball. It’s refreshing, delicious, and a must-try!

I stumbled upon Katana Kitten on Google Maps without knowing much about it (didn’t even realize it was that popular until I looked at the reviews later lol), but honestly, we just went because the cocktails looked cute — and they delivered.

We went on a Wednesday after work, no reservation, and got a seat without any issue. That said, the place filled up fast — by 7pm it was packed, so I’d say come early if you don’t want to wait.

The vibe? Super cute, kinda cozy, very fun. No food/snacks available early in the evening — I think they start serving food later, maybe after 7, so just keep that in mind if you’re going straight from work and you’re hungry.

Now the cocktails… SO GOOD. I got a matcha cocktail with alcohol (don’t remember the name but it was green and delicious lol) and we tried a few others — all tasted amazing and were really well balanced. Also, presentation was on point.

Price-wise, it’s not cheap — expect to pay $20–$25 per drink, but honestly that’s pretty standard for a solid cocktail bar in Manhattan. Totally worth it in my opinion.

Definitely coming back. 10/10 recommend if you’re into fun drinks, good vibes, and a chill spot to start your night.

This bar has a great vibe, super friendly staff, and tasty drinks and bites. The tonic water on tap is super fizzy and we enjoyed a few drinks with that! Miso deviled eggs were great. A highlight was our bartender who recommended great drinks plus some of his other favorite spots around town.

Decided to pay a visit to this world famous bar during my recent visit to NYC. I went on a weekday but was able to get a bar counter seat in-spite of not having a reservation. The bar’s ambience is quite nice and so are the drinks. The interior decor is quite interesting and definitely unique versus other cocktail bars I’ve visited in NYC.

I ended up trying 4 of their drinks and my favourites were the Meguroni and the Amaretto Sour. I also tried one of their highballs (Toki Highball) as that is what the bar is known for, but that was my least favourite.

All in all, I liked my visit to Katana Kitten and would definitely recommend it to folks.

Smaller than I thought. The amaretto sour was good. Only has one mocktail on menu so I got that and it was a bit too bitter for me. But I like that they make it taste like a mocktail and not juice.
