I just had my 27th birthday party at Obivia and it was AWESOME!! I?ve been having birthday parties in NY for some time and they?ve always followed the same format: get a table, tell your guests, have a waitress and hope for the best. I followed that same format at Obivia and it far surpassed my expectations! Our server was so very attentive and neither my guests nor I ever had to wait for a drink. Additionally, our server did a great job of avoiding ?tab? trouble, or sticking any one person (i.e. the bday girl!) with the tab, by seamlessly taking everyone?s order and keeping track of who ordered what in the computer. Aside from the logistics, we were met by a complimentary bottle of champagne on our table, and Clare (Obivia?s event planner) met me and my guest with a shot before we even had time to check our coats! The music was great, and even though there wasn?t a dance floor, I danced all night. The drinks were extremely tasty and unique, and were also quite potent. It was all and all, a really great night in an era where it is SO hard to find a fun, classy, yet chill environment that won?t break the bank, or that isn?t crawling with undesirables with too much attitude! THANKS CLARE!!!
Pros: great vibe, classy, fun, good music, attentive, strong drinks, full but NOT stuffed wtih people
