Even though it's been renovated and renamed since its days as Turtle Bay Cafe, overlook maintains an authentic, divey patina—an increasing rarity in this neighborhood. While die-hard regulars from the old establishment still keep spots at the bar, the majority of pint swillers are younger after-work professionals who mingle around the pool table or watch sports on one of 30 televisions. Enormous booths in the back make this a great place to bring an entire sales team or political club, but with overlook's friendly, low-key vibe, your group will be mixing it up in no time.

Dubbed "Midtown East's premier sports bar," the Overlook offers everything a New York-residing sports fan could hope for: drink/food specials, 20+ hi-def tvs, and an awesome patio with two GIANT screens. In the fall, the Overlook is your must-stop-location for the Oklahoma Sooners and Chicago Bears. In the meantime, their crowd-pleasing bartenders are always willing to put your game on tv and the convenient midtown location ensures that there will always be some young professionals willing to make some bad decisions before their trains back to the burbs. Premier sports bar, indeed.

I've thrown parties here, went to parties here hung out after work here and had lunch here. The drinks are cold. The food is great and the staff is always friendly. It's a fun place to hang out and a great place to eat. Best french fries in the city. Look it up!
Best Karaoke in NYC! Went last Tuesday night and had a great time. The song list is incredible! I couldn't think of a single song they didn't have! Great sound system and the DJ took the time to adjust the mix for each singer.
Great place - BEST FUNDRAISING BAR IN TOWN!
