Such a fun spot - would definitely go back!. I just celebrated my belated birthday at Happy Ending and I'm so happy that I did! I was looking for a spot that would appeal to the diverse group of friends that I was going with and Happy Ending was just the place. Although we didn't do table service w/ bottles (because reservations started too early for me 10-10:30) we utilized the bar to the fullest. The drinks were good, the bartenders were efficient and the prices were not ridiculous at all. Not only that, it's FREE to get in!!! And FREE for guys and girls - I loved this.

As soon as I walked in I started dancing b/c the DJ was spinning great hip hop hits and I don't think I stopped dancing until the club actually closed. Towards the end of the night the DJ played some old school hits like "sexual healing" and it was the perfect mix to end the night.

I could not be more pleased with this venue - it was so fun. I was worried that it would truly be a sweatbox inside as per other reviews but although it was packed in there, I think my hair stayed straight and I don't even think I was sweating.

I can't wait to go back b/c I definitely will!

Good times. Love this place. I typically don't get here until 2 or 3 but it is a great place to wrap up the night. The DJs there spin some really good music and most people are up dancing.

Massages are extra. Happy most of the night, too. Although I had a great time, I found the space to be a little too confining, as tables take up a lot of room running along the length of the floor both upstairs and downstairs, but there was just enough space to get your dance on. The former steam rooms, while thankfully not as moist anymore, provide a great spot for groups. I particularly liked the burnt orange and rose-hued lighting, complementing the colorful and mixed crowd that the bar draws.

The Tip - Dance Party at Happy Ending on Thursdays!. Ha its funny because I went for my friends birthday party too and was pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem. I've lived around the corner for 5 months now . they had hilarious like soul plane movies playing on the projector and some of the best dance music I have heard since ive been in NYC! I went back the next week with some friends and the amount of people there doubled, i think i stumbled upon something thatd really gaining some rep, i feel honored to have found it!

Best Birthday Spot. I had my birthday at Happy Ending last October. The managers and staff were so wonderful and accommodating it made my birthday so special. Reserved the larger party room in the downstairs and all of my friends had a blast, great music fantastic drinks and an interesting crowd. A special thanks to one staff member who immediately removed a nasty party crasher who was hoovering a little to close to my parties coat pile :) Would definitely go back and recommend.

Happy Ending Does Not Come Easy. I am torn to write a bad review here. The first time I visited this place, it was on a Saturday night. The music was great and people were chilling or dancing. It was just the right amount of people, not too crowded, not empty.

I just went on a Friday night and it was bizzare. The crowd was weird and the music was wacked. It was a hit or miss. The DJ remixed a lot of current music with old school tunes from the 80s and some remix were awesome but some were blah. I saw a lot of over 40s people here and it was really packed.

So, I would come back again on a Saturday night but absolutely not on Fridays.

Great Vibe. I've heard alot about this place probably from its naughty past but haven't gotten a chance to stop in. My friend invited me to a maagazine launch party here last week. The crowd was really interesting and there were free TY KU sake drinks, I opted to have mine straight up and chilled though. I think they were just there to promote this event but I hope the bar stocks it soon! I really like the dark and sultry atmosphere and would definitely come back to try it on a weekend night.

Great Place for a party. I had my birthday party at Happy Ending recently and the staff was incredibly friendly, showed me to my table and let my party know where they could find me. Overall, I had a good night and I have the staff of Happy Ending to thank!
