    #newyork: Are you Looking for a cool spot in #nyc? Check out #GeorgeBangBang, a Koreatown #speakeasy committed to its Prohibition saloon theme that lights oil lamps on either side of the long bar.Enjoy small bites and crafty cocktails by professional mixologists, all handmade in this dark ambiance of sophistication, highlighted by a striking Venus statue, with high-ceilinged decor, a record player spinning big band jazz, and vintage trunks for tables. 🙌This hidden gem is accessed through the Korean soup specialist Okdongsik restaurant. (#Okdongsik Seoul has been listed in the MICHELIN Guide Bib Gourmand). Walk in and straight back to the secret door. #Tridence

    One of the most creative cocktail bars with Asian ingredients Ive had. Notting Hill was particularly excellent.

  • Review 3 (2024-12-08 - Rating: 5)

    I only come to George bang bang for the host and service. The drinks are amazing but the homeliness from the staff is otherworldly! I think the host was named Brianna or something similar, so lovely and helping. (Sorry I forgot your name!) Get the Old Boy. That drink absolutely destroyed me but in the best way possible.

    Overall rating: 4.95OMG BEST KEPT SECRET. I don’t know how I’ve never heard of this place but I’m so happy it’s in my life now.I went on a date around 9:30 on a Friday and we were very lucky and got the last seats at the bar. The interior is so breathtaking and I don’t feel like I’m in NYC anymore. It feels like I’ve been transported to somewhere in Europe, in the best possible way. I have no idea what we ordered but they were very good.Definitely worth checking out!

    In love with the new speakeasy bar, George Bang Bang! The owner’s Craftsmanship in cocktail making is an artistic and creative approach that allows customers to have a unique experience in taste, smell, texture, and presentation. His craftsmanship, passion and personality make GBB absolutely the best speakeasy bar in New York! I love all his signature cocktails. My favorites are The Chloe, The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Emma’s Wife and The Blue Gardenia. Of course, Don “Michael” Corleone if you are in LOVE with Whiskey! Not only are his signature cocktails excellent, but the classic cocktails are on a whole new level.

    Have you heard of the restaurant Okdongsik? Have you ever been to their restroom? Then you would’ve accidentally stumbled to this speakeasy, George Bang Bang. They’ve curated some amazing cocktails. During our visit, my friend had asked for something other table was having. It looked like a beef jerkey. We asked for the dish and the waiter advised that was not on the menu and they were in the middle of a developing stage. However, he was nice enough to bring us the menu as a complimentary. The potato pancake almost felt like a mozzi, and their sandwich was sweet. If you’re interested in cocktail bar, definitely one of the place you should check out! Plus, special thanks to my friend who waited for almost an hour because my work had ended late😂

  • Review 7 (2023-09-26 - Rating: 5)

    Dope Thats the description of this place the minute you walk in.Folks, this speakeasy is one of those places that I wished was still more of a secret so that it wouldnt be popular and get hard to get into because theres no more room, but at the same time its too good of a place for others not to know.Its easy to miss because from the outside you look in and see a 12-15 top seater of people eating, but just walk in, even if you see a line outside and go straight to the back, theres another door there. Youll see a business card taped to the door GBB. Open the door and enter into one of the coolest spots in NYC. Limited seating, so you might want to make a reservation ahead of time.Great vibes, great service, and definitely even better drinks. This is one spot once you come, youll want to share it with everyone you actually like hanging out with.

  • Review 8 (2023-07-17 - Rating: 5)

    A great speakeasy bar near Korea town! The cocktails are great and the atmosphere is chic. It’s not too loud so you can have conversations. And of course the cocktails are so good! You should visit if you enjoy great cocktails and a cool experience.

  • Review 9 (2024-07-19 - Rating: 5)

    What an amazing find! I was a friend of the late Sasha Petraske… he would have given a hearty thumbs up to the innovation and nod to not a few famous Korean films ;-)… but the care and specificity that went into many of the cocktails this evening… excellent attention to detail… a very attentive and generous manager came to my aid immediately with a dietary issue and offered delicious shots as a complimentary substitute.Definitely in my top five! Well done staff. Well done “George” :-)

  • Review 10 (2023-11-26 - Rating: 5)

    Cocktails were very enjoyable. Overall atmosphere was pleasant. There may be a decent wait time depending on the hour you go at, but this place easily offered some of the best made cocktails Ive had thus far. I can personally recommend the old boy and Michael Corleone.

  • Review 11 (2024-11-12 - Rating: 5)

    Incredible speakeasy cocktail bar. Make sure to make a reservation, especially if you’re coming with a larger group!! We were a group of 6 and were seated in this really cool recessed /private corner near the bar. The layout of this bar is amazing— lots of levels and cool decor. Their specialties were great, but I would ultimately recommend their classics— their Negroni was one of the best I’ve ever had.

  • Review 12 (2023-10-29 - Rating: 5)

    We had an absolutely magical experience - head bar tender Alex was out of this world. His hospitality and attention to detail are unrivaled. Go- experience this beautiful hole in the wall and thank me later.

  • Review 13 (2023-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    Great little cocktail bar that’s hard to find - not sure if it’s a speakeasy but worthy of being one. The bartenders here are great and you can tell by the quality of the drinks. They have a huge array of options to choose from so there’s something for everyone. The vibe is also old school and reminds me of a movie setting. Looking forward to going back soon!

  • Review 14 (2024-12-08 - Rating: 5)

    Everything was incredible, Bar had great vibes, Staff was super nice, The crew behind the bar were very hospitable. We was really chillen.

    Great interior,Great vibe,Great drinks,Great Alex형,Great place!Cocktails are amazing here! You should go and check this place out!

  • Review 16 (2024-08-26 - Rating: 5)

    This speakeasy offers a fantastic atmosphere with a unique vibe. Its tucked away at the back of a restaurant, accessible through the back wall. The ambiance is dark and gothic, highlighted by a striking Venus statue in the back. The seating is quite close together, adding to the intimate, though somewhat cozy feel.The drinks are thoughtfully crafted and intriguing. My favorite was the Double O Seven, a martini like drink with a subtle citrus flavor. Each drink costs around $20 and is served in small portions, making the price quite steep.One of the charm points of a speakeasy is its secrecy, so I hope this place remains under the radar to avoid long waits. As mentioned, if reservations or wait times become necessary, it might lose its speakeasy allure. I hope this hidden gem continues to maintain its exclusive charm.

  • Review 17 (2024-06-11 - Rating: 5)

    Intimate speakeasy spot with excellent drinks. The staff is super attentive and good at giving recommendations. The two drinks we got — the Rum Diary and the 500 Days of Summer (?) — were just amazing. They both smelled AND tasted good. Would recommend ideally for groups of two people, max four.

  • Review 18 (2024-05-10 - Rating: 5)

    Super creative cocktails, vibe is impeccable 👌 Definitely worth trying!!!

  • Review 19 (2023-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    An incredible vibe, excellent service, and unique and delicious cocktails, we really loved the small but amazing place.

  • Review 20 (2024-09-07 - Rating: 5)

    Fun speakeasy find. Love when you aren’t sure if you are in the right place or not.

  • Review 21 (2024-03-11 - Rating: 5)

    Great place! Loved the experience and service. Ideal location for date or small group speakeasy. Our preferred drinks were the 500 days of summer and double “o” seven. 500 days of summer was quite unique! The spirit-free choices were equally as thoughtful.

  • Review 22 (2024-05-04 - Rating: 5)

    My, this speakeasy is so cool.Since I’m a tourist, I passed by this place when I first visited. The front is just an empty restaurant that looks closed. The seats are empty, the counters are clean, there is only one lone steel door at the very back.That steel door holds in the burgeoning life that is the room of George Bang Bang. Cozy, warm, and candlelit, this speakeasy boasts a wide array of their own cocktails, some classics, and a condensed repertoire of bite-sized snacks.Definitely a NYC bucket list item, but I do recommend reservations first.

  • Review 23 (2024-01-13 - Rating: 5)

    This speakeasy is hidden behind a restaurant (gotta walk through the restaurant). Make sure to get reservations as it can be pretty crowded but it does allow walk-ins later in the night.The drinks are delicious as we tried a number of them. While they were all unique and tasty, they were on the weaker side. My favorite one was the Little Miss Sunshine with the bee pollen!

  • Review 24 (2024-10-20 - Rating: 5)

    Great, innovative cocktails. Helpful and friendly wait staff. Cant really ask for more

  • Review 25 (2024-07-13 - Rating: 5)

    Really great drinks and atmosphere with good musicThe Chloe - vodka cocktail tasted like guava juiceBlue gardenia- tequila cocktail ; one of the best cocktails I ever had

  • Review 26 (2024-09-01 - Rating: 4)

    Great speakeasy. Drinks are creative but could use alittle more kick (stronger alcohol :) The themed decor, room design, and music made me feel like I was back in those days.

  • Review 27 (2024-06-30 - Rating: 5)

    It’s a perfect date spot! Stunning interior that sets the stage for an unforgettable evening. The ambiance is just right, with soothing music and a vibe thats both relaxed and captivating. What sets this place apart are its signature cocktails, each one crafted with elegance and sophistication, blending flavors in ways that delight the senses and elevate the experience. Its the kind of place where every sip tells a story, making it not just a destination, but a memorable journey of taste and ambiance.

  • Review 28 (2024-07-24 - Rating: 5)

    The atmosphere at Bang Bang NYC is chic and modern, with a lively yet intimate ambiance that is perfect for a night out. The decor is stylish, and the attention to detail in the setting enhances the overall experience.

  • Review 29 (2024-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    Speak easy bar behind a small restaurant. Drinks are as much fancy as they are weird. But good weird.

    Our hostess and server Bianca was so amazing and hospitable! Would come back just for her. Thank you so much! What a great experience.

  • Review 32 (2023-07-03 - Rating: 5)

    They serve some of the best drinks I’ve ever had. Try the Michael Corleone if you like a perfect mix of sweet and salty.

  • Review 33 (2024-04-07 - Rating: 5)

    Atmosphere is super romantic and intimate. Drinks were delicious. Lowkey enough with a beautiful interior for a nice date night.

  • Review 34 (2024-03-01 - Rating: 5)

    Loved the whole Backroom vibe. The fact that Okdongsik is just in front makes it even better. The drinks are absolutely beautiful and well carved

  • Review 35 (2023-10-03 - Rating: 5)

    My boys place and he did it right! Everything from the atmosphere, look, feel and even smell is done right for a pre-prohibition speakeasy.Also the cocktails are legit in every sense.Congrats on a beautiful venue!

  • Review 36 (2024-01-24 - Rating: 5)

    Cannot say enough about how much I love this place. My boyfriend and I first went here about a year ago, right when it opened and we love it. The cocktails are always on point, the menu creative, the space so beautifully designed. They have 20s music playing from what sounds like a grammaphone and gas lanterns. Its a beautiful, quiet space with excellent craft cocktails. What more could one want?

  • Review 37 (2022-10-31 - Rating: 5)

    Great atmosphere… great vibe… great place to relax and grab a few drinks. Can’t go wrong with any of the signature drinks. Corleone if you are a bourbon / smoke fan. Chloe is super refreshing. Most beautiful moment is intriguing with the cream cheese! I can go on and on. Like traditional speakeasies… look up the address, you’re at the right place, ignore the lock and pull on the door… walk thru the back, you’re there!

  • Review 38 (2023-12-21 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing vibe and ambiance. Fantastic set of cocktails offered here as well. I recommend the Old Boy since Im a mezcal lover. A decent wait time on weekends before 9pm. On a good day, you might even meet some of the best bartenders around the world as customers here (like we did).

  • Review 39 (2024-06-30 - Rating: 5)

    George Bang Bang, Bangs so hard. Please make sure you go and try the Malena and The Most Beautiful Moment cocktails. Sheesh. Service was fire 🔥

  • Review 40 (2023-12-31 - Rating: 5)

    Awesome place, the cocktails are awesome, my favorite: Don “Michael” Corleone.The music is amazing, it takes you a few decades back, it’s super enjoyable and the service has always been great.I’m sharing photo of a classic Negroni, you can get any classics you want as well!

  • Review 41 (2023-08-22 - Rating: 5)

    Where do I start with this place? It wouldnt be fair to say what the average spend is on this place - because I spend half my paycheck here. Every detail, from the cocktails to the presentation, to the red velvety dark interior that looks like you are on the set of the Moulin Rouge...on every level - this place blows my mind. Nestled behind a Korean soup spot that deserves its own review, GBB hides behind an unassuming door. I know what you might be thinking - great, just what New York needs...another effing kitschy speakeasy where you have to jump through hoops for 30 min with some dumb password you find off of a scavenger hunt after dialing in through a defunct laundromat (JUST GET ME MY DAMN DRINK)...but not GBB. No way. Just open the door and find yourself immediately transported behind velvet curtains, deep red ambiance, ornate furniture and carvings, and sexy jazz numbers hovering in the air. The solid wood bar lures you in and you feel like you are in a classic cocktail bar somewhere in Japans bygone era, bathed in a red glow from the velvet backbar.Although that alone is enough to get you through the door for a surefire way to impress your date or friends, it really is all about the drinks, and Alex, owner and operator, does it absolutely right.You are not going to find frilly fires and pyrotechnics. No floating bubbles of nonsense popping in your face and no laundry list of ingredients that some Swedish handmaiden hand plucked from a rare patch of grasslands in the mountains... nope.JUST. GOOD. DRINKS. Innovation and creativity meets mastery at GBB. Not relying on tricks, the drinks have to stand up to their integrity and these drinks do just that. GBBs inspiration comes from film - an inspiration for Alex. Drinks like Don Corleone set the tone with rosemary smoke and a house made chocolate garnish that you bite, drink, bite to your hearts delight. King Kong and Farinelli are must haves for a sweeter night cap...King Kong showing off flavours of toasted sesame and peanut butter - like a way more advanced White Russian. Ingredients show up that most everyone have in their fridge but are presented in new ways, like on the Most Beautiful Moment in Life, and its tangy delicious cream cheese foam.The staff follows suit, dressed in classic attire and are so kind and generous to each patron.For me, I always start with a classic Negroni before I take a dive into Hollywood Land...because Alex - without a shadow of a doubt, makes the best Negroni in Manhattan. Thats on period.

  • Review 43 (2023-10-10 - Rating: 4)

    Great place to go on a date or catch up with a friend. Decently lit, very pleasant music and nice decor. We had two cocktails: while one was a bit unsurprising, the other was an absolute delight and wed have had 10 of them if given the time. The service was amazing, and even with a Friday evening crowd, the place didnt feel too busy.

  • Review 44 (2024-09-16 - Rating: 5)

    Awesome speakeasy with an intimate vibe. Excellent drinks, great music, and the ambiance is just perfect.Service is excellent as well, especially with Mia. Shes super nice and friendly. Really appreciate her style and attention to detail.Highly recommended.

  • Review 45 (2024-02-09 - Rating: 5)

    Arguably the best speakeasy in Manhattan. This was my second time back (made a reservation) and we loved the ambiance and drinks.They had a vast range of cocktails, from milk punches to flips and classic drinks. The Notting Hill was silky and herbaceous and the Corleone was a smooth old fashioned accompanied by some dark chocolate. We also got their honey butter chips to share!

  • Review 46 (2024-04-01 - Rating: 5)

    One of my favourite speakeasy’s in the city. Very intimate space, not really suitable for big groups. The drinks were so delicious and not super strong. Definitely make a reservation if you plan to visit.

  • Review 47 (2024-07-30 - Rating: 4)

    I like it but I am not sure I love the really slow making of cocktails.

  • Review 48 (2023-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    Wanted to try this new bar for a while now. It is tucked behind the famous Korean pop up restaurant, okdongsik. You have to walk past the restaurant to the back door to get to the bar.Alex is amazing. Every drink is well-crafted and cared for. It was truly an experience just watching him make every drink like a work of art. I also liked how the music was not too loud and the bar was very intimate so we can actually have conversations over drinks.My favorite were the most beautiful moment of my life and little miss sunshine. My friend had the farinelli which was also really good. Will come back again next time to try Emma’s wife :)

  • Review 49 (2024-09-15 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 69 (2022-11-27 - Rating: 5)

    This place is a hidden gem. Might take you a second to figure out your way in, but once you enter, the vibe will hit you. This place has nice lighting, decor, seating, and service. A great time out with some friends or to impress a date. The old fashioned was one of the best I’ve had. Consisted of a solid ice cube, and just the right balance of bitters and sugars in an elegant presentation. The bartender was professional, classy and friendly. I was there on my own and he definitely made me feel welcome. Definitely check this place out, especially now before the word gets out and it’s crowded.

  • Review 71 (2023-02-20 - Rating: 5)

    George Bang Bang, is a small bar (speakeasy like) with a western theme and asian influences.Love the vibe of this place. Cocktails are priced at about $18-$20 bucks standard for NYC. Drinks are delicious and unique. I had the Malena (if you like grapefruit) & the most beautiful moment in life. I do recommend the honey butter chips, which were nice to munch on as we drank.Make sure you come early this place is on the smaller size or you will be waiting for a seat, no standing room. And max party size is 4.

    George Bang Bang is an experience. Walking past the diners at the restaurant in the front, finding the real entrance, discovering the warm, intimate space, and watching the talented bartenders make the drinks — it’s really one of my favorite memories from my latest trip to nyc.The drinks are so balanced that you won’t taste any alcoholic harshness, so be careful! You might get tipsier than you thought at the end of the night :)I had a couple cocktails from their signature menu (notting hill and old boy), and both were amazing. I tried my friend’s gin and tonic, and it was so complex and smooth. I want to try more of their classic cocktails in my next visit!

    My new favorite speakeasy, tucked in the back of 13 East 30th. Alex makes the best cocktails I have ever had in my life! It is a quiet bar/lounge with chill vibes. A great place for a small group of friends to have a drink and relax. A must go!

    Best cocktail bar in NYC. ☝🏻

  • Review 98 (2023-12-28 - Rating: 5)

    A beautiful escape tucked behind a rotating restaurant space. Find yourself walking through a beautiful wooden door into a plush and well appointed space with music gently filling the room. The signature cocktails are the big draw and rhe classic cocktails are equally inventive and satisfying. Cant wait to make our way through the full menu in the coming months.

    Came here for drinks with a group of 3 people on 12/21. We didn’t make a reservation, but the staff was super friendly and let us know the estimated wait time. We grabbed a drink nearby while we waited and thankfully a table was ready for us within about a half hour. Drinks were delicious, service was impeccable, and the staff were all so friendly and helpful. Overall a great experience and we will be back!
