The Scene – The male gatekeeper--dressed in a fur coat with an animal face on each sleeve--may give some visitors pause, and others a primal charge. The fashion inside the club, co-owned by veteran promoter and Studio 54 doorman David Sarner, is a touch less excessive, leaning toward the Nicole Richie end of the spectrum. Party girls and guys mix it up along the room-length, caramel-color banquettes, with an island of seating running down the middle that makes for lots of face-to-face contact. Mini-platforms against the walls invite waves of impromptu dancing. – – The Draw…

Editor's Tips

The Extras:
Since this spot is on the border of the Meatpacking District, it's easy to club-hop all night.
What to Wear:
Flashy duds are the popular choice: glittery or upscale street get-ups for girls, designer shirts and slacks for guys.
When to Go:
DJs pack the decks with house music Thursday through Sunday nights. Monday is a semi-exclusive industry party, Tuesday has a Euro vibe, and Wednesday is hip-hop.

Great fun if you get it

by space2005

We were turned out from this place as a large group of girls w/ a table reservation. Last night we were fully comped in w/out waiting in line because we knew the bouncer. If that's the attitude you are prepared to accept, once you get in it's marvelous. The place is a little cramped but the music is FANTASTIC! and the dudes beating on drums adds some spice to those who want to dance it up. We dance all night and had a sweet time. Midnight is a good time to show - dress up and look important.

  • Pros: Music, Atmosphere, Friendly inside
  • Cons: Door policy, Self-importance

Coming from Los Angeles...

by lagrandfromage

We have great clubs on the West Coast but we really enjoyed this club on our recent trip to NY. We found the service to be great and everyone very friendly. We met one of the owners and DJ nadav (outstanding brotha!) and heard some exceptionally good tunes. They allowed live musicians to play along with the DJ while roving the room. Nice touch!! (great job Onyx!). Very intimate club considering everyone is dancing their ass off! "Bottle table" prices are in line with most clubs (only hurts for a little while) but worth it. Sofisticated music, great vibe, beautiful peeps, can't go wrong here! Mind you though the club does have the cursed "velvet ropes" but we found that everyone at the door had good attitude. Be smart make a reservation.

  • Pros: Good Crowd, Great Sound System, Great VIP Feel

Luxurious

by reddpl7

The privacy that you attain while in this lounge is immesurable in comparison to other places. Lined with luxurious couches, dim "mood" lighting, and an overall sultry decor, Pink Elephant is a great place to bring yourself and your friends for a great V.I.P. like experience.

Great Saturday night

by ziggydaga

The place was awesome. We went this past saturday night and there were 7 guys and 4 girls and we got in - No problem. The reason was that we spoke properly to the bouncer and he seemed cool with it. The drinks were a little pricy but then in the meatpacking district everything is. The sound system and DJ are awesome. A lot of gorgeous people and definitely worth going if your in town for a bit.

  • Pros: Good Service, Pretty people, Great music
