This restaurant is a golden nugget hidden in plain sight. From the outside you’d have no idea how big the restaurant actually is. The atmosphere is perfect, a downtown vibe with a nice calming element. Staff were excellent and the food. The food was utterly incredible. We each had the ribeye cooked rare and I hands down believe it to be one of the best steaks I’ve ever eaten. For a Christmas Eve, our waiter was brilliant and I cannot fault the establishment enough.

We decided last minute to check out Frosty’s! The place was decorated so cool! We did not eat there, so I cannot rate the food. It was a fun environment! I feel the $45 cover charge was a little high, considering how much drinks were, but you’re also in NY, so it was somewhat expected. I think it’s worth it if you’re going to make a night out of it, otherwise no.

Adorable igloos on the rooftop with views of the city and Empire State Building. We were originally sat in an igloo in the center and asked to move to one on the outer edge so we had a good view and they kindly accommodated that. Came with a bottle of Vueve. We ordered the Smores which were cute added touch to the experience.
