Hi-Life Bar & Grill is one of the Upper West side’s most popular and longstanding neighborhood restaurants (est. 1991). Hi-Life's 1930's decor is the backdrop for bar & grill classics like flame-grilled steaks and hamburgers, broiled and seared fresh fish specials, bountiful "Big Bowls" of pasta and entree salads, and last but not least a Sushi/Raw bar. (Hi-Life was the first NYC restaurant to install a traditional sushi bar in a non-Japanese restaurant setting in 1993. Expertly prepared sushi & sashimi at Hi-Life is a natural extension of the classic Raw Bar one might expect in our 1930's environment.)Hi-Life also serves a "traditional Westside" brunch that features fresh squeezed juices, complimentary blueberry muffins & cinnamon toast as well as a 4.95 brunch cocktail deal.In the warmer months Hi-Life outdoor seating includes 26 seats along Amsterdam Ave and another 16 seats on our 83rd St side.

    Ambience is great. Service was very professional. Food Wonderful! I had Lamb Chops and they were fabulous. Our reservation was for 2 but turned out family members who live in the area popped in to just have a drink which turned out to be dinner. The restaurant fit us into a tight booth which we were grateful to get. After all they were full and had no idea extra people would be coming. ( Nor did we ) We all had a great time. No drama on part of the restaurant. We appreciate their consideration. We will go back for sure.

    Our first time Westville UWS dining experience was an all-around joy. The staff were welcoming and friendly and attentive, but not overly so. We enjoyed our turkey burger and hamburger, the former with french fries, the latter with salad.  We loved the space, too:  tastefully but simply decorated. We did not try anything from the bar, but we intend to on our next visit.  The menu offered variety, but not an exaggerated amount of dishes.

    Perfect chicken, delicious sides, drinks were fabulous, and we enjoyed the music on Friday night which set a lively mood but we could still hear each other talk. Our server was so pleasant too. Definitely recommend to anyone, wish we could visit more frequently!
