Funny Enough. I came to this website to actually say how great this place is, and funny enough, how the door preson is a breath of fresh air compared to what i am used to in NYC. it is a lounge not a club. it provides great music fun, and yes!! bottle service!! the bar is a little too small and fills up quick... the girl in front lets everyone in, and will chat with you while you wait... she assured us we wont wait too long, and we didnt... it is what it is... some people need to lighten up, those bad reviews really surprised me.

the One.
Great scene if you can get in the door- come early- stay late. Drinks are 12 for the specialties, 8 for a vodka tonic. The place is packed and is a great mix of friendly locals and "scenesters". Attentive and attractive bartenders mean eye candy for the women as well.
Didn't eat but everything that went by looked delicious and the prices were reasonable for the area- which means expensive but not exorbitantly so. If we can get back through the door- we'll be back!

Great Scene. Great place for a birthday party. The downstairs room is private, yet open, so you don't feel isolated. Not ideal for a full scale meal, though the food is pretty good. More of a tapas feel to the menu. Great for a lite meal and then drinking. Very good looking crowd, so I'd think twice about bringing a date here. Don't go late without a reservation on a Fri/Sat night or else you'll be waiting. The service is severely lacking, so beware.

Birthday Dinner. I had my traditional birthday blow out...and it was so much fun during dinner, that we ended up staying all night..instead of going to a bar/club. Bottle Service was great, and everyone loved the transition from restaurant to lounge.

pleasantly surprised. found this place because another restaurant in the area made a mistake with our reservation...our disappointment was quickly reversed after being greeted by a warm atmosphere and friendly staff. the food was delicious...

What a waste of cash!. There is no service at this bar, which means no drinks or food -- ultimately leading to a very frustrating night out, and you end up kicking yourself for not leaving an hour earlier.

One will become the loneliest number.... One is the 'new kid on the block'; trying to impress by keeping some out, others in and appealing to the masses through their 'best of the best' word of mouth campaign. Went to this 'swank' hideout for the 'in' and was met with service that was disasterous, from the doorman to the servers. At one point, a waitress for our table wouldn't serve us. Truth be known, there was no reason for her 'attitude and pretentious aire'. The last time I checked One was a bar, but the proprieters must only want to keep up their che-che image. I wish them well, but would recommend any of the other lounges in the Meat Packing district before One, which I found to unpleasantly misrepresent it's name. I propose a name change from One to One Hundred, but then they'd have to relocate.

Awful. Went last saturday night due to the reviews listed here. Those must all be written by friends and staff because this is the worst restaurant I've been to in a long time. Food was okay but the portions were tiny and the service was so bad it was laughable. The place is nice looking but there are a lot of nice looking places in the city that know what good service means. Go elsewhere unless you like rude waitresses and long waits for tiny tiny portions of overpriced food.

Dating in the City. It's a great place to bring a date. It has a taste of romance and lots of class... but nowhere near cheesy. Your woman, or even man, will be impressed with this new hot spot. The menu offers a unique experience of sharing, tasting and exploring... all great things we want on a date!! But be careful with wondering eyes, the crowd is an eye pleaser!!

tasty treats. Delectable and delightful! Candle light and great jazzy/funky music It all comes together to create an inviting vibe creating a desire to stay longer and come back for more! Check it out for yourself, but I recommend making reservations, it fills up quickly with a good looking crowd and smiley faces try the Naughty School Girl cocktail it comes with a surprise treat!!
