Where to Go for a Drink Before Yasuda

[roze]

Going to Yasuda tomorrow night for dinner and I'm looking for a place to stop off before for a glass of wine or maybe a beer. I really don't want to go to the usual Irish bars in the neighborhood- is there anywhere a little nicer nearby? Maybe Riingo? Not sure how big the bar is.

We've gone to Sakagura across the street before hand - in the basement. Amazing sake selection, and the bar tender helped me find a sake that I actually enjoyed.

O'Neals Pub on Third between 45 and 46th

Thanks- actually planning to go to Sakagura afterwards for some drinks and their green tea creme brulee! Yum!

You could try Rare View on 37th & Lex (as long as it's a bit earlier as it tends to get pretty crowded later in the evening). Great views, average beer/wine selection.

bull and bear (waldorf) is kind of special. campbell apartment (gct) is ok.
