Once nice weather hits, rooftop cocktails are de rigueur. That’s why we headed over to STK in the meat-packing district for a happy hour drink to celebrate my friend’s birthday. 

First things first. We ordered our cocktails (regularly $21, hh pricing $11), my friend selected their Spiced Watermelon made with Patrón Silver, St. Germain, watermelon, lime and jalapeño.   I ordered their Not Your Daddy’s Old Fashioned made with a hearty pour of Woodford Reserve. The old fashioned has become one of my pandemic go-to cocktails. I’d recommend STKs.

My friend ordered their beef tartare ($7) simply served in three crispy wonton-like cups for easy snacking. I tried their sauteed mini-salmon patty on a soft slider bun spread with an herby green goddess dressing ($7) served with two crispy batons of polenta. Hit the spot, as did the large tender Waygu meatballs ($7 for 2) covered in a light tomato sauce, sprinkled with grated cheese. I can recommend each one.

And I can recommend STK rooftop during their weekday happy hour from 3pm ’til 6pm!
