The Water Club

The Water Club was the most perfect venue I could have imagined for my August 2023 wedding! Everything detail was incredible from the food, the spaces, the views, and the dedicated staff. We had the pleasure of working with Elle and could not have felt luckier! She and her team flawlessly executed every detail of the wedding and not only accommodated, but went above and beyond for every special request we had. Elle was also incredibly responsive throughout the planning process and in the lead up to the wedding. All of our guests raved about the venue. The ceremony was beautifully set up and the Crow's Nest was the perfect venue for the cocktail hour and after party. We would highly recommend the Water Club to anybody looking for a beautiful, classic NYC venue with phenomenal service! The Water Club was easily the best choice we made for our wedding.

I had my company staff party here and it was such a great experience! The staff were all attentive and incredibly helpful. The food was INCREDIBLE!!!! They kept the wine coming, and my colleagues and I all enjoyed ourself so much! It's a NYC staple that i had always heard about my entire life. I'm so glad to have been able to come here.

I was here for an event held by the, Committee Noviembre, for Hispanic Heritage Month. This is a beautiful venue with breathtaking views of the Ed Kotch 59th Street Bridge, Roosevelt Island and Long Island City. The service is always impeccable and the food and orduerves were very tasty. The evening was wonderful, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves very much. I would return again given the opportunity and would probably come for brunch in the future.

Beautiful views of long island city. Bread comes as corn muffins scones, sourdough as well as other selections. Dress nicely as you admire the ships as they pass while drinking cocktails and seafood. They also have some memorabilia of nautical historical significance which you can check out while there.

Enjoyed dinner with my girlfriend in celebration of her birthday. Our first time at the Water Club, but hopefully not the last. In terms of location, ambiance, and views - this restaurant will not be bested. We arrived just before the sun began to set which made for a romantic dinner on the water. Service was phenomenal as multiple waiters and servers assisted us seemelessly without ever missing a beat. Food was good, but not exceptional (7/10) and the reason I am not rating at 5 stars. While more than decent, it was a bit bland and not as flavorful as one may expect given the menu prices.

Cool place that let us make last minute reservations. They open at 12 p.m. Sundays every other day at 5 p.m. We made the reservation for Sunday brunch around 11:15 for the 12 p.m. brunch they gladly accepted us. Be careful getting there because you have to cross the FDR and try to avoid the runners/bikers in both directions it seems like everyone and their mama runs this path. Nicely decorated clean with a snooty feel but actually had very nice Waiters/hosts that check on you numerous times... I got up once during my meal and came back to a folded napkin and straightened area my friend informed me the waitress did that. The views of the East River were great and the food was surprisingly tasty I have to admit I thought it would be bland. They bring you warm cranberry scones and banana nut bread while you wait we got them straight out of the oven. Reservations should be highly considered this place fills up fast with groups of people and I do mean groups... about 98% were senior citizens dressed to the nines we felt kind of out of place for a minute but it was cool. I'm sure dinner time is a madhouse.
