My friends and I went there for a New Year's Eve 2007 private party. I am a native New Yorker and have seen enough rude people at bars. But this place by far gave me the worst experience I have ever had. When we went there those people didn't even have a guestlist for the private party. They just let anyone who was willing to pay $60 to get in and by doing that the bar was overcrowded. Nevertheless, this is not the highlight of the experience. The coat check ladies lost our friend's jacket. We were there for an hour searching for her coat. The coat check ladies became unhappy and called the manager to kick us out. The manager was rude and said to us that we have to come back when the bar closes. It was freezing cold out. How can someone walk out with a skirt in the cold?!! One of them even made a statement that maybe one of us took the jacket. The staff at this bar was immature by saying this. We are not school kids who play pranks on each other. We are all highly educated working professionals. When they didn't have an answer as to why the jacket was lost, they called the bouncer to kick us out. Come on, when your customer gave you money to check the coat, it is the bar's responsibility to keep the coat in safe custody. The bar was irresponsible when they disputed their responsibility like that. Reputation is the most precious asset in business and I think this bar has ruined their reputation. Definitely not returning.
Pros: nothing
Cons: immature, unfriendly, unprofessional staff, overpacked
