Angel's Share is a hidden Japanese-style speakeasy cocktail bar that reopened in the West Village at 45 Grove Street under bartender Erina Yoshida after the original location closed in 2022. It's known for meticulously prepared, artfully presented cocktails served in a small, intimate room with deliberately limited seating.
The bar does not take reservations — it's walk-in only — and reviewers note that the combination of no reservations and limited seating means waits can build up during busy evening hours.
