Doomed!!

by dougakind

Between the rudeness of the staff and Prey charging a $20 cover, I would say this place will be expected to close in a few months. My friend and I was dumb enough to allow the doorman to convince to pay a $20 cover and we would have a good time. Keep in mind that we are both 28. We walked in and the place was filled with underage kids drinking and acting rowdy all over. It was a disappointment.

• Cons: Cover Charge, Rude Staff

Horrible Managerial Staff

by cmhkaba

I made the mistake of having my husband's Surprise Party at Prey last weekend. In the beginning everything seemed okay. Our waitress Mariah was great. However, there was a group of men seated near our large group of 50 people (so I definitely brought business to this place) who were obscenely drunk. One of the men decided to pour his entire drink on my cousin, which angered my cousin greatly. We had a NYC Cop part of our group who was able to calm things down, but what happened afterwards shocked me. The manager came up to me and blamed our group for the disturbance saying that the drunk man was related to the owner and that we should consolidate our group and spend more money or LEAVE! Our group was a mixture of Black and Latino young professionals, none of whom were drunk and it was interesting that we were the ones blamed for the incident. Afterwards they kept a bouncer upstairs to watch our group and they also let the drunken guy back upstairs and he was walking around pushing people (he pushed me a few times) around and being a drunken nuisance. When I spoke with the bouncer he kindly stated ?To be honest with you, they don?t even want us in here.? Also we paid a cake fee, and they did not provide napkins or even plates & utensils, what was the fee for then? I was so unhappy that this is how things ended up, I did my research to try and find the most suitable place to celebrate my husband?s birthday and accomplishments and all I got was a poorly managed establishment. We still loved Mariah and tipped her well, she was awesome, and wasn?t involved in any of the nonsense.

• Pros: Mariah, the waitress
• Cons: Managerial staff

Stay home......

Rude female bartenders. Bad service. Horrible DJ. = Closing in the near future?

Went there for a Birthday party with friends. The place was a ghosttown but the only reason we had fun is because our group is crazy....lol. Instead of coming here...... Go to the store buy a few bottles of goose and turn on your radio and invite your friends to your house.... it will be just as fun but you will save a lot of money.

• Pros: The more drunk you get the more fun you can have
• Cons: Taxis are easy to get when you wanan get out....lol
