What a fantastic happy hour experience at Blue Fin inside the W Hotel Times Square! We were staying at the W and needed a quick, delicious bite before heading to musical theater, and they absolutely delivered.The food was incredible. We devoured the mini lobster rolls, perfectly steamed edamame, flavorful crab cake, and those truly memorable tuna poke tacos. For happy hour, head upstairs to the spacious and beautifully decorated bar, which I loved for its striking blue accents.A big shout-out to the amazing staff who made the experience even better! I'll definitely be back on my next trip to New York.Happy Hour Daily 4 - 6PM & 9PM - Close - Maling Sun
