Kimoto Rooftop - New York

Made a last minute after work reservation for a Wednesday at 6:pm. I'm really glad that I did. My girlfriend and I arrived at 6 sharp and the place wasn't crowded, but that changed quickly. This is a hot spot and fills up quickly. Live DJ was doing his thing when we arrived and music was good. Scored an outside table. Very pretty staff that is quite accommodating. We ordered several small plates of appetizers which were all very good. Happy hour specials are offered and are different depending on the day you are there, but fun choices. I highly recommend, just make sure you reserve a table and don't just show up expecting to be seated.

Kimoto stopped using open table around the same time i put in the reservation. No one called out inform me of this. When i called right before the reservation they had no record of the reservation, but yet i had the confirmation number and the reminders. They barley accomadated us. Some of my guest were still standing and when they sat down at a table for a quick second because one waitress said that they could another waitresses was kinda aggressive in telling my guest to get up. I will never have a party there again. But otherwise the bottle service and food was great.

The rooftop is pretty, food and drinks are good but the service needs a lot of work. The waitress never even came back to give us the check; we had to get it from the manager. We thought she left until we saw her come back to the table next to us.

The inside is nice. Nice lighting and some good music BUT the food didn’t taste fresh and wasn’t hot when it came to my partner and I. We ordered drinks that didn’t taste like anything it said it had in it and the hookah was so harsh my partner and I couldn’t even smoke it. We paid extra for the ice pipe just for it to go to waste. On top of that we paid a service charge and not one time did our waitress come check on us. The only time a waitress came to us is when our original waitress shift ended and she was taking over. We had to look for her to get our bill because she never came back to check if everything was ok. I’ll never go back there. It was a waste of $120 for just wings, fries, 2 non tasting drinks and harsh hookah that couldn’t even be used. Oh and keep in mind my partner and I shared the wings and fries because we just wanted an appetizer. It wasn’t 2 separate orders. I was highly UNSATISFIED especially because we went on a Tuesday and not a weekend. Everything should have been good nothing should have been rushed or anything because it was empty !!!

Cozy super noise , happy hour drink more delightful
