Highlands NYC was among the best in the New York dining scene, with various awards for the modern twist dishes and Scottish cocktails. The knowledgeable bartenders cooked up mean rum-infused and whisky-filled hand-crafted cocktails that made for a great night of endless fun. The wine and beer list did not disappoint either.

Modern Scottish dishes were the order of the day on the menu list. Executive Chef Timothy Miller brought his creative experience to the restaurant, where he blended Scottish imported ingredients with local produce to create innovative cuisines.

If the main meals were not your go-to dishes at Highlands NYC, the bar provided delectable snacks that were well paired with the drinks. With one of the largest whisky lists in New York City, Highlands NYC hired the talented beverage director, Andrey Kalinin, to curate the best list of what whisky can offer. Choices included the finest selections from Scotland and the European region.

Whisky tastings also took place at Highlands NYC. For a small fee, you would take part in the Scotch Whisky Flights program that included knowledgeable staff who assisted guests in differentiating various flavor profiles of the whiskeys.
