After waiting on a very slowly moving line for one hour, my boyfriend and I were next to go in. At that point, some man came outside and said that at this point we will only be allowed in if we agree to buy a bottle for $350!!!! Unreal. We waited patiently for one hour and the whole line was pretty much turned away. Additionally, earlier a group of six in front of us were told that they were not allowed to come in unless they agree to buy 2 bottles for a cost of 750! I have never encountered such rudeness in all my years of NYC nightlife. I will NEVER go back. If we wanted to spend $350 we would have done it before waiting in line for an hour!\r

STAY AWAY! Very careless with customers who want to come in and spend money. They just want to rip people off for whatever they can get before they close down, which I predict will be within months. From what I hear, this place has been on a downhill slide since the day it opened. BTW the ""manager"" who looked like Ahmenijhad, was rude and nasty. Plus the bouncers encouraged people waiting in line to tip some hobo ""rapper."" At one point the bouncer said to a lady ""Since you didn't tip him you are gonna wait longer."" I am appalled at how they treated people. Bear in mind, the bouncer tipped nothing as well.
