Rose Den — Restaurant in New York

Rose Den keeps trying to get my review taken down. They know their whole business depends on concert-style music performances that violate the law, and they’re afraid local residents might take extra steps to enforce it. Please give my review a like and post your own.

They routinely play music at volumes that exceed NYC noise codes, making it impossible for nearby residents—like my young child and our neighbors—to sleep. Repeated complaints haven’t helped. It’s clear management ignores both the law and the community.

Local enforcement isn’t much better: police rarely respond, and the Department of Environmental Protection takes months to follow up. If you’re struggling with this, your best option is to contact the State Liquor Authority (alcohol license) and NYPD (speaker license) about the bar’s repeated violations.

We’re moving soon, but I hope the area eventually gets relief from these ongoing disruptions. Until then, I’d advise others to avoid this place.

If I could rate this establishment lower, I would. Unfortunately, it has become a significant disturbance for nearby residents.

Without question, this is my favorite bar in the borough!! Run by a local with decades of experience on both sides of the bar, this is a great place to have a drink and a conversation. There are occasional events like comedy and live music, but it's typically a quiet bar for adults. The hours are consistent, something very uncommon for businesses in this area. It's open every day except Tuesday, year-round. It's not just for the summer ferry crowd. The food is absolutely spectacular! Honestly, this place has some of the best food at some of the best prices in New York City. The lobster roll is definitely THE BEST lobster roll you will find south of Rhode Island. Nothing in the city or the Hamptons is comparable. Stop here before you take the...
