“Everything about this restaurant was so good!!! I highly recommend booking a reservation because it was definitely crowded. My group was seated immediately and was greeted by the waitress. Food and drinks came out quick! Everything was so good! Props to the chef! I will definitely be coming back! Thank you for making my birthday so special!!”
“Had been wanting to try this spot and it did not disappoint. The space has a dark, speakeasy vibe that feels both fun for a night out and elevated for cocktails during the week. Drinks were beautifully done and the food was great, especially the crispy rice which was perfectly crunchy and generously topped. Overall, a great atmosphere with strong food and drinks. Would definitely come back and recommend.”
“vIf you’re looking for a night that feels equal parts luxe and electric, Do Not Disturb Speakeasy absolutely delivers. From the moment you walk in, the décor sets the tone—rich, upscale, and intimate with that hidden-gem feel. The vibe is lively without being overwhelming, and the music is perfect—setting the mood while still letting you enjoy the experience. The food? Next level. The Crispy Rice Party is a must—an indulgent lineup featuring tuna, salmon, hamachi, scallop, crab, lobster, and arroz con pegao, all layered with incredible texture and flavor. The Spicy Lobster Tagliatelle is rich, perfectly balanced, and seriously satisfying. And don’t skip the Lemon Pepper Mala Wings—crispy, bold, and packed with flavor. To top it off, the “Do Not Disturb” specialty drink is everything you want in a signature cocktail—bourbon mixed with a homemade sour (lemon, honey, and ginger syrup), orgeat, and angostura bitters. Smooth, slightly sweet, and dangerously good. Overall, it’s the kind of place you go for the full experience—great food, amazing drinks, and a vibe that keeps the energy going all night. Definitely a spot worth coming back to. 🍸✨”
“This is the place you bring someone you're trying to impress. An oasis amidst a flurry of options in the west village–Do Not Disturb is one of my favorite speakeasies in nyc. DO NOT blink or you might just miss it though😂 It looks like a bar once you walk in but there are two other dining rooms in the back that would be perfect for a small/medium party all year round. The greenroom in the far back is definitely my favorite. Whoever is on the aux keeps the vibe going with great music and the staff is super knowledgable, we were sat almost immediately. The food is great for sharing, it's on the pricier side (expected for West Village) but I'd come here everytime if ambience is important to you. Encore: Lobster pasta 3.9/5, iykyk a lot of spots don't pull of lobster pasta well, but DND's option is a little spicy with a yummy pomodorro that only gets better with time. Comforting without feeling heavy, this makes for great leftovers. Surprise surprise: Brussel sprouts 3.8/5 I liked the char on this, I wish the sauce on the bottom was more evenly distributed throughout the dish. I took black salt off a drink rim and it really set this off, so for my taste I'd go a smidge more salt. ALSO the tiramisu mille crepe cake is light, yummy and perfect for sharing. Cut the cameras: Crispy rice flight, great concept love the caviar add-on, after the first bite i realized all of them kind of tasted the same so it's perfect for sharing with friends; you won't miss out if you don't eat one. You have to come here for the grown energy, this is the perfect place for a sophisticated pre-game where the vibe more than makes up for the hype.”
“While I really enjoyed my drink, which was called Silk City, per the server's recommendations, I overall thought that most of the items were severely overpriced, especially for the amount given. My friend and I visited here and enjoyed the dark vibe and the environment, which was pretty good for dates. If one is okay with the prices, then I think this would be a great place for good drinks and vibes. Honestly I am not certain if the whole concept of crispy rice was effective, because the textural juxtaposition made the flavors of the crispy rice and the fish completely separate, when they're really meant to be together as one entity. The crispy rice had a taste that'd be present for all fried food, which, if wasn't fried, would allow the fish and the rice to combine flavors, like big pieces of sushi. That itself to me should be enough. I really enjoyed my drink which is called Silk City, and the only thing I wished was that it was a bigger portion for $20. My friend also enjoyed her drink which was called Peligrosa, a mixture of mezcal, luxardo, pineapple, cilantro, and salt. My drink contained gin, pear & vanilla reduction, yuzu, pineapple juice, and orange bitters, and the combination was fruity sweet and not excessively sugary. One thing to note is that the establishment was pretty hard to find. One will need to look down to below the ground, the basement, and locate this place.”
