BEST...
SALON...
EVER!!!
I have shoulder length hair - which is not typical for men in NYC. Also, my hair has been highlighted to a shade of blonde not seen in nature. I called Friday morning to schedule a cut and color - fully not expecting to get an appointment. The friendly receptionist who booked my appointment for later that afternoon, asked questions about what I wanted to accomplish with my first visit to Two Do. Then, she actually got the colorist - Suzana - to speak directly to me! WHAT? THAT NEVER HAPPENS ANYWHERE ELSE I HAVE BEEN IN MY LIFE!
I want to talk about my experience in the salon. Suzana listened attentively to my needs and wants and took her time to perfect the shades in my new color. Prior to beginning it, She introduced me to Art, who would be cutting my hair. We chatted about length and layers and he told me that to go much shorter would not look good on me. Suzana began my color - and she told me exactly what steps she was taking and what they would accomplish - 2 different highlights, raising my base, adding low lights, then a toner and then a gloss. The cut with Art was one of the best I've ever had. He did exactly what I wanted and his understanding of my hair was apparent.
When I got a look at the finished work of my new colorist and stylist, I was in AWE! It was the exact color and cut I had always wanted but was never able to get ANYWHERE! I walked out of the salon with my head held high - feeling like a million bucks, but here's the best part - I didn't even spend an outrageous amount on my fabulous new look.
I cannot encourage you enough to go to this salon. I will never go elsewhere to get my hair colored and cut. Suzana and Art are true geniuses of hair - I cannot believe that it took me so long to find them. Thank you Two Do for the being the BEST...SALON...EVER!!
Pros: amazingly friendly, SUPER talented, and attentive staff
Cons: only one location

My hair is very difficult to color because it turns red very easily. I was looking for natural looking highlights, as if lightened by the sun, to brighten my face but not noticebly processed. Veronica was the greatest! She took her time to listen and talked out the process with me until we came to a full understanding and agreement of what would be done. The results are fabulous!!! I got it done 3 weeks ago and I am still enjoying immensely. The color came out exactly the way I wanted it. And no turning red like in most other salons. Veronica is really an expert and a true professional. Really sweet too!! I will follow her wherever she goes!!! :) I finally found my perfect colorist (and I have been searching for years)

We had no trouble with customer service what so ever. On the contrary, our waitress recommended wonderful dishes (Goat Cheese Dip for an ap, Pork Tenderloin for an entree- seriously good!), our food was prompt, we were seated only about 3 minutes after our scheduled reservation. We all agreed that it was a fantastic night! Our total bill for 3 people was $120 (no alcohol or dessert, one shared ap and 3 entrees). We sat at a very comfortable 4 seat table which was great. I could see that the tables for 2 may have been a little close together, but honestly no worse than in other restaurants I've been in. This is NYC. Space is not overly abundant. But although it may have been slightly cozy, I really don't think it would have been a showstopper. I definitely recommend!
Pros: Great service! Fantastic food! Really nice night out!

Used to live down the block from here; due to the perpetual out-the-door wait, I would pop by an hour before, go eat elsewhere, and then head back for the reason to go--the dessert. The frozen hot chocolate is a much-imitated but unequaled classic. Not the cleanest joint, but chock full of retro, cute ambiance. Skip dinner and eat up dessert. Want to try the Vegas one next time I'm there.
Pros: Delicious desserts
Cons: Always a wait, lackluster entrees.

Went to Megu with friends last night and was blown away from the start. We all entered in on a special "chefs tasting menu" and our waiter took over from there from Kobe steak to sushi and awesome desserts . The atmosphere is lovely in the main room and the upstairs lounge( kind of clubby). We will be back.
Pros: friendly staff, food
Cons: it had to end

I choose this restaurant because I wanted to try a new place and what better time to see what NYC has to offer than Restaurant Week 2009. So I was a little nervous when I saw a packed bar and restaurant but graciously planned ahead by making a reservation. Reservations are recommended so that the tension of waiting is void. Once seated I was blown away by the food and the service. I had the BBQ spare ribs with collard greens and the ribs fell right off the bone. The drinks were pretty good and the staff was friendly. I will def go back with a crowd and have some more of that homegorwn sauce. Check it out for yourself and enjoy!
Pros: Delicious food
Cons: Reservations recommended
