The “bouncers” are racist. They said “go home and eat your pizza” because I was carrying a pizza take out box in my hand and the bouncer justified it by saying he’s Indian so he can say it to me ?. All this because we asked if there are any openings. Friday and Saturdays is the time for these subpar places to go on their power trips that have nothing to offer other than their stinky attitude ? I have breezed through this place multiple times on the weekdays with them struggling to fill up. Shameless.

First time back in a while. This bar used to be cool, but is trying too hard to be its old self. Better spots in the city to be found.

I was recommended this bar by my hotel. I used to go out a ton in nyc and have encountered the doorman Disco at several other establishments and have had no issue getting in. I don’t know what he is going through but to turn away a single guest on a cold Tuesday dead night with the lie that I needed to make a res is simply poor customer service. I will order my bottle of krug somewhere else

A poorly mannered, rude bouncer, who was unable to make up his decision about the entry rules. At first we were told, that 6 of us was way too many to get in, after a few seconds he said we couldn't actually have a drink there without a reservation either, in a second he added actually the four of us he can let in, even without reservation..so we thought OK, we won't split up, but the two of us will go in to see if it's worth even booking a table next time. Suddenly, he changed his mind again, and said even two of us couldn't get in.. I'm surprised the owner keeps such rude employees to discourage the guest from coming there again:(. All in all we went to KYU, next door. Great atmoshere and service, no wait time and excellent drinks :)

An upscale cocktail bar, which are a dime a dozen in New York. Nothing about this place "wowed" me. Drinks were just okay, but I expected more for a $25 cocktail. Dimly lit but had to shout across the table just to hear what my friend was saying. Nothing to write home about.

Stunning upgrade from its old school vibe. THE place to do amazing cocktails. Avoid the back and stay at the bar to enjoy the ambiance.

A stylish speakeasy with good (but nothing crazy) cocktails and dim lit ambiance. It was not super busy at around 8pm on Saturday night. The service was great.

Mid bar on a kind of secretive intimate setting. Drinks are ok for what they charge.
