West End Bar & Grill

This corner spot in Hell’s Kitchen is your typical neighborhood hangout—casual, dark and inexpensive. However, the cocktails, beer and wine choices are better than you might expect. So is the food, including chicken parm sliders, shrimp tacos and short rib grilled cheese with caramelized onions on rosemary ciabatta. On Sundays and Mondays, it’s open until 2am and as late as 4am the other nights of the week. The bar often showcases live musical acts as well.
