So I was very wary about coming here because of the comments made by several people about the doorstaff.I have a dozen or so friends that go here and said they aren't always rude so last weekend I decided to tag along and find out on my own. First off they did have a line and the wait was kind of long but it's a hot spot what do you expect.Not everyone can be VIP and not everyone should expect to be. when I got to the front I asked how long the wait was and was given a straight answer ""not sure, but not too much longer"".I prefer this more than anything else I have ever gotten since most places will tell you 5 or 10 minutes and be way off.So there were 3 things I mainly wanted to mention.1st- there was someone being taken out or walked out, whatever the correct term is for throwing someone out and there was a crowd of people around the ropes and this is why I say polite but assertive the guy directly at the ropes (light skinned and shorter than the other doormen) cleared the people outside the ropes not by pushing and yelling but saying somewthing like watch out folks we have someone being sent out or something like that which was polite but was assertive so people would move.2nd- there was a taller skinny dark guy inside (who looked like he was mad all the time) I had some friends inline further back and I approached him and asked if he could get them in and he was hesitant at first but then he said show him who they were and he would see about getting them in since it was already close to 1am, so he let them in which I thanked him for, he was stern but seemed only to be following the rules. 3rd- I will be returning because the drinks were a bit expensive but they were very good and I think everyone that wrote something bad on here were probably just bitter they didn't hookup that night and were probably thrown out for being drunk.Not the place for fanuiel hall type drunkness or lansdowne st. narcotic's use. It's an upscale place w/ upscale ppl.
