The Scene
It's just off the insane, touristy fray of Bleecker Street and 6th Avenue, but don't be discouraged by location--or the drab entryway. Descend the dark stairwell and enter a haven for people who just want to let loose in a no-holds-barred, no-pretensions kind of place. Hundreds of miniature, reflective glass domes cast a warm light on the crowd of bankers, hipsters and stylish out-of-towners. A lounge with banquette seating sits a step above the main bar.
The Draw
The lack of VIP area and the accompanying surly bouncers is refreshing. The piped-in music varies from hip-hop classics to '80s mainstays, all of it eminently danceable. While the steel-framed banquettes were specifically designed for dancing, many get used for semi-clandestine coupling, no doubt encouraged by undetectably potent drink specials.

I have been to many clubs and this is BY FAR my favorite! The music is great, decor is cool, mixed crown, yummy martinis, good food, nice staff...the list goes on and on! The black and white movies complete the experience and make it so cool! Love it so much!

Have been going to this place for a while and I have to say I LOVE IT!!!! It just has everything I love. I have to say I love the fact that I can reserve a table. Gypse the party host is so easy to deal with. She isn't snooty like so many other places. I could go on and on...And really that fact that I don't have to buy a bottle to reserve is the best!! Can't wait to go back!!!

Look Good:
Don't bother waiting for the right little boy's or girl's room to open up--the bathrooms are all unisex.
Save Time:
Each banquette fits about six people. Splitting a bottle, which average $150, saves time and effort, as the waitresses are quick to replenish mixers.
