This is not just a bar. The atmosphere is eclectic with relaxing vibes. We went mid afternoon. We had the mason jar of margaritas, very good perfect portions to share. We also had the fried veggie dumplings. Amazing!! Definitely a must when you’re in the City.

My friend and I only had a few rounds of drinks and 2 small plates and were issued by the bartender, aka HR’s worst nightmare, an automatic gratuity with no explanation. Not a good look.

This place is overtly racist. STAY AWAY if you are a person of color. They let my white friends inside while they told me (a black man) that I was unable to enter. We were all appalled by the way that they treated me

Guy in front was awful. My cousins from Canada came to visit us in NY - we went in dropped 500$ on drinks first hour, went out to get some halal cart food and then said bye to my cousins as they went to go do their own thing. Tried going back in and the doorman out front talking about we can’t go back in unless we credit 500$ more on drinks… like what? We were just in there and came out to say bye. Guy taking his job too serious - even a promoter there was like “wtf, we losing money and they were already inside” but this bouncer/front door guy got an ego threatening to quit his job on the spot if the promoter over ruled him - like it’s never that serious. Turned a good memory into a tainted one over a power trip. Got a lot more I can say but we keeping it calm over here. Anyone ever have the same experience?

When we first arrive at the restaurant the lady said that there was no free table even tho there was 2 free tables outside. After asking and showing the free table she had to as her supervisor if we where allowed to eat there.
We ordered 2 salads and 1 burger and a soda. First the soda we received was not even the corret one. 40 minutes after the order still no metals yet.
We went to go see the lady and she said it was coming real quick and soon.
10 minutes later, nothing. We asked her again and she said "oh sorry it will be 50 minutes". At this point we didn't want to stay. We where not the only ones complaing. The table behide us had to wait 15 minutes just to recive the check and the table in front of us has been there for longer then us and still hasn't received any food.
We didn't want to wait 15 minutes so we kept asking for the check of around 5 bucks for the soda. At the end the lady just said "go" in a very disprectfully way without us paying the check.
I think this restaurnt has too much tables and not a big enough kitchen and the staff is not organized at all.
Anyways this restaurnt wasted 1 hour and half of just waiting and the we ended up in the small fast food restuarnt down the road.
Please do NOT go to the restuarnt apart to wait your time.

Place had a great crowd but needed better music. DJ was playing every pop song you hear in every other bar and cutting it off 20 sec after. In other words, THIS PLACE NEEDS LATIN MUSIC (REGGAETON), HOUSE, etc.

Nice upscale bar with below-average cocktails. Well furnished but the atmosphere was quite dull on both of my visits.

Lively young professional spot with great cocktails, but the vibe shifts dramatically after 10pm. The music gets too loud and it becomes overcrowded, making it difficult to have a conversation. If you're looking for a place to mingle and dance, this is your spot. However, if you prefer a quieter atmosphere, I'd recommend coming earlier. More of a bar-club hybrid. While cocktails are no longer available after 10pm, the bar still serves wells, beers, and shots.

Don’t come here unless you want your phone stolen. I had my phone stolen right out of my purse (which my purse was almost fully held in my hand) and this was right after hearing another girl had her phone stolen about 20 minutes earlier. The people who stole it immediately put it on airplane mode, so they were obviously doing this multiple times a night here and knew they could get away with it.
First time they said it was 23+ and the next time we got kicked from the line for not buying an $800 table. Never going here again
