Beetle House NYC offers a fun and quirky atmosphere that perfectly complements its unique cocktail menu. I tried a few drinks, and each one was creatively crafted, with bold flavors and intriguing presentations. The Beetlejuice-inspired cocktails were especially fun, and the flavors were spot-on. The vibe is dark, eclectic, and perfect for a night out with friends. The only downside was that service could have been a bit quicker, but overall, it's a great spot for cocktails and a memorable experience!

We came during Christmas Jack show! AMBIANCE: nice photos and other small decor. I would have liked to see way more lighting and the Christmas tree was underwhelming. STAFF: Amazing! From Lydia to Jack they were all engaging and witty! Lydia's singing voice blew me away. They make the price worth it. FOOD: I loved the Mac n cheese, and the meat dishes were yummy. The drinks were strong and tasty. Desert was nothing special. Food came fast hot and ready. CLEANLINESS: Average NOISE: nice low music. They do a great job of turning it up during show time and lowering it during food service. You can have a conversation here and enjoy the show OVERALL: I loved the experience and would definitely come back for Christmas. We did the 3 course meal for 65 PP and all-in spent $102 PP including tax and tip (18% gratuity is included). And it was awkward when the waitress asked for additional tip if we would like to tip only her. Try to grab the seats by the entry or center.

I have quite a few thoughts and opinions about this spot, so let me break it off into some categories. Atmosphere - 3.5/5 - I loved the look of the bar, and I loved the decor. I think the art on the wall and the pieces they added to make it very Halloween-esque were great. However, and it's unfortunately, the way the space is built, but it is extremely narrow at BeetleHouse. Essentially, they have a wall separator that separates the bar from the dining area, and it makes it so very hard for both people and actors alike to walk up and down. There is also a little back room area and when the actors go over there, if you are in the front, you can't see what they're performing. You just hear them singing. And vice versa. I feel like that takes away from the experience because of the way the area is built. They also encourage exploring, but it's kind of hard to when people are eating right in front of the thing you want to see, and it's already narrow as it is. Actors - 4.5/5 - The actors were so exceptional and honestly, they really did work with what they had. The makeup was great, the singing was good, but what really made it where the individual interactions they did with people at the tables. It was my cousin's birthday and Beetlejuice in the most Beetlejuice way took pictures with us. Lydia and Emily from corpse bride was there that day and they were cutting his ass the whole time, which was hilarious honestly, what went against them is the fact that the house is built the way it is. But they did what they could! Food - 4/5 - I read mixed reviews about the food so I didn't have high expectations when I got there. Now, I do think it is quite expensive, but you also need to remember you're paying for dinner and a show essentially, so the prefix menu makes sense. As for the food itself, I had the mac & cheese, the Bolognese, and a chocolate cake. The Bolognese was OK, I could've done for more meat and sauce, but when I ate it the next day for leftovers with grated Parmesan cheese, for some reason, it was so much better! The chocolate cake was a bit too much and too chocolatey for me, but that's just my opinion. The mac & cheese, however, FIRRRRRREEEEEE. That was some of the creamiest mac & cheese I've ever had. I did not expect the mac & cheese to be so damn good, but if I worked there, that would be the only thing I'd ever eat all the time and I'd turn into a mac & cheese ball. Overall -I'd say, if you are curious, totally go at least once. I had a great experience, and I think, though the bar does sound like it plays on a gimmick, they do a really good job of making it a true authentic experience.

I love Halloween and I love Tim Burton so of course I had to come here especially as we were travelling to NYC with my friend's goth teenage daughter and trying to find things she might like. First off, the decor in this place is impeccable. There are so many nods to Tim Burton's movies, it's like a treasure hunt to find all little easter eggs from the movies. The menu is pre-fix so you choose an appetizer, entree and dessert for a flat fee. They had enough to choose from that everyone was able to find something they liked, even my picky child. They serve the drinks with dry ice, so they come to you smoking, but really, really cold. I didn't trust the dry ice so I plucked it out of my drink. It was literally freezing my throat. What I didn't know is that they have entertainers dressed as Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands come around to each table which makes me...uncomfortable. I guess I should have read the yelp reviews before we went! All in all food was good but expensive. Atmosphere was incredible, and if you're a theater kid, you will love it.

As a HUGE Tim Burton fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the two meals I've had here. The food and drinks were beyond my expectations! The character actors were very talented! The decor exceeded my expectations, and the second time I went, they changed the esthetic, and it was even more interesting! I cannot wait to bring my daughter who's a Beetlejuice fan! Make sure to book your reservation before going!

Beetle house was fantastic. It reminded me of those summer nights in my early 20's ; Where my friends,and I would go into the city for fun dinners on a whim. Beetle house was whimsical ,and fun. My inner child loved the performances.The food was pretty good comfort food. My brother chose this place for a late dinner, and it did not disappoint. I also enjoyed their pop up next door called creep crust. Definitely come here, and have an open mind and enjoy!!
