I went there on a Saturday night and it was packed. I must admit I was very skeptical at first--normally a crowded, newly-opened, thoroughly-hyped Manhattan lounge is the last place I want to find myself. However, I soon found myself, along with my entire party (8 people) won over.
Despite all the place had going for it there wasn't a trace of pretention. The owner, who's name escapes me now, was super friendly, routinely making the rounds to ensure that everyone was enjoying themselves. The drinks were out of site--really creative and perfectly executed. Overall the vibe was surpirsingly warm and laid back.
I'd love to come back to this place on a weeknight when it's less crowded and you can really soak up the atmosphere.
Pros: great drinks, great service/mgmt, cool decor
Cons: crowded on weekends
