craft cocktails at Death & Co

The posh lobby of the Ramble Hotel is home to what opened in 2018 as the first outpost of one of New York’s best-known bars, where the illustrated seasonal cocktail list displays the staff’s intricate craft: A Mr. Brightside with rye, Oloroso Sherry, peanut butter, cinnamon, vanilla, lemon, and Cabernet Sauvignon here, a Care Package with apple brandy, amburana-aged caçhaca, local cider, and brown butter there. A small but smart selection of snacks completes the experience (don’t sleep on the drunken cookies). —Eater

THE FINE PRINT – (A little structure = a lot of magic. Promise.)
🎟️ How to Claim Your Seat
Only paid spots are confirmed! “Going” is just a maybe—your seat is locked once your $10 deposit hits @mandirao on Venmo/PayPal (or ask me for Zelle). Waitlisters can and will swoop in. This keeps our table full and saves us from the classic “RSVP now, ghost later” saga.

🤝 Waitlist = Ready to Roll
Join if you’re truly available and ready to commit fast—too many “maybe” signups can discourage others from jumping in. Let’s keep it moving!

🔁 Need to Cancel?
Full refund if you cancel by the morning before (about 36 hours out), or if someone fills your seat. If there's a waitlist, please cancel as early as possible so another eager guest has time to step in.

🚫 No-Shows & Flakes
Two no-shows or a pattern of last-minute flaking may result in removal. These are small, intimate gatherings, and empty seats affect everyone—including me, if the restaurant charges for lost headcount. Thanks for helping us keep the table full, friendly, and fabulous. ❤️
