I must admit, I've always liked the Red Door, and have never had any problems until a couple of weekends ago when I went out with some of my friends, one who was black. He was not let in because his "pants were too baggy". I understand the baggy pants thing, but his pants weren't baggy! It was such a blatant lie and I was so angry at the doorman, but they just stood there and didnt care. Not only was my friend embarassed, but I am telling all of my friends about how they won't let in anyone that is not white. The review below was spot on about the "paper bag theory". Not a good way to do business.
Pros: always packed, nice rooftop
Cons: door man, "paper bag theory"
