Best Cocktail Bars in Montville

Manager Mark an absolute gentleman and very accommodating with our group running late due to the inclement weather and Asia who was awesome. Asia had extensive knowledge of the many drink options which helped us decide what beer and drink options to choose from. It was an absolute pleasure visiting J&R Cigar again.

Little pricey but the food and drinks were definitely worth it, will be back!

You’ll need to keep in mind that the place isn’t a top pick for dining. The bar bites are decent, but it is more of a choice for cocktails. The cocktails were outstanding! The seating isn’t ideal with bench seats and coffee tables. I was a bit disappointed with the terrace. People leave their trash behind and the pink statues are not in great shape. The tail of one of the statues has been broken and some of the others have places worn through the paint where people touch them. The shrubs are hilarious and the view from the terrace of the Empire State Building is gorgeous!

We totally enjoyed our early weekday splurge at Altair. The entire staff was warm and gracious from the hostess to the bartender who dazzled us with a fun cocktail creation mixe at the table. The food was spot n from the warm, rich pumpkin brioche, to the perfectly seasoned mushroom ravioli and sea bass. At one point a very large party was being seated with tables being rearranged that was a bit chaotic, but it quickly settled down and we enjoyed the rest of our dinner. I would highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion and its location makes it a perfect pre-theatre dinner.

So nice, amazing service and great view. Easy to access.
