I have one thing say: 40s and martinis..... together in one place??? Amazing.
Went there on Thursday for "Beauty Bar" with my friends, drank martinis while getting my manicure. Although my nails are slightly chipping, I would do it again any week. Great for a low key girls' night which turned into a dance party around 11:00.
Pros: Service, good looking staff
Cons: Crowded late night

First the good: Great atmosphere with cool people (but not so cool as to make me feel uncool!) and OK priced drinks. We had a really great server who took care of us all night. The music was loud, but you could still have a conversation. We had a lot of fun to say the least.
But my problem with the place was that they required you to check your coat- and it cost $3. Not a big deal in and of itself, but they wouldn't give you your coat back if you wanted to go outside to smoke a cigarette. This wouldn't have been a problem before the smoking ban, or if the weather outside was nice (It was 14 degrees when we were there). I was not the only one who had a problem with this- At any given time throughout the night there were at least 4 disgruntled and very cold men and women (esp. women in their skimpy going out attire) who were pretty upset about it. I would definitely go back, but only if the weather was warm enough outside.
Pros: Cool scene, DJ
Cons: Ridiculous coat check policy unfriendly to smokers

Both the bouncers and the owner of this hole in the wall are incredibly and unnecessarily pretentious and rude.
I was waiting in line this weekend with possibly 3 glasses of wine under my belt, standing around chatting with friends. I was immediately approached by a bouncer who told me to "turn around and face front". I proceeded to say that I was just talking with friends as he continued to act like a prison guard. He proceeded to threaten me by saying that he wouldnt let me in the bar, and I asked him why he was being so rude to me when all I was doing was talking with friends.
To make a much longer and incredibly frustrating story shorter, I was roughly pulled out of line. I asked to speak with the owner who basically laughed in my face, told me I was too emotional, and that I should leave. Being a frequent patron of both Empire liquors and Victory liquors, I am extremely disgusted by this incident and will never choose to go here again.
If you're looking to be treated rudely and unfairly, and then standing in a box for a few hours, then by all means choose elm street.
Cons: rude and pretentious

the staff here are all cool and work hard to get your drinks. but get in the door early, his place gets crowded quick on the weekends. decent beats throughout, and it's always fun to look up at the plasma TVs and see anchorman, swingers, or scarface instead of the news.
casual or dressy - you'll get a mix. definately fine clientele, but some cats prefer the 40oz. mickey's too.
Pros: attractive clientele, good service, good music, big selection, no cover
Cons: crowded and hot once the party starts jumping

I went here for the first time last Friday night. We got there a bit early, but glad we did, because it filled up fast. It was crowded, but well managed. We sat at a table in the back and had great service from the waitresses all night long. The servers weren't pushy, but made sure we had everything we needed. The bartenders were all attentive and very good looking, might I add. The clientele was unpretentious and fun. And the music was fun to dance to on the impromptu dance floor I'll definitely be going back for more.
Pros: Ambience, service, music
Cons: Keep tabs on your tab
