The Scene
High picture windows open into this airy Murray Hill bar. Angular, burgundy banquettes line boldly colored walls and ground the lofty space, which is golden-lit from high above by unevenly dangling paper lamps. This front room stretches back to a wall-cut door and the cozy cream room behind, flickering with candlelight from an altar-like fireplace. Flitting between tables, the army of well-trained servers quickly attend and recommend the entire menu.
The Draw
Owned by the minds behind Tribe, PS 450 and Punch & Judy, this subdued spot serves classy house cocktails to post-work professionals and weekend parties--with specialties well-suited to each. The Executive's Red Bull, vodka, and Absolut Mandrin mix sports a smooth, not over-energized kick, while fresh strawberries, mint, Bacardi Limon and Finlandia Berry make a tart mojito. Daily DJs smooth out the low-key vibe with sweet, seamless blends of Ice Cube over Smashing Pumpkins, hip-hop over classic pop.

I met up with a friend who was there for a going away party. My husband and I got there and in without a fuss. I thought the place might be dead because there was not a lot of fuss at the door but to my surprise the mgt is full of grown ups who understand that ppl would much rather stand inside and buy drinks then wait outside and be aggravated. The DJ was amazing - he played such a nice mix without anything feeling contrived that I was quite impressed. We were comfortable and when the party left they did not make us "move" to make room for some other reservation. I had an amazing time so much so that I missed my next party engagement that night. like Arnold said "IWILL BE BACK!"

In response to Argyle7, the managment at Vig 27 would like to apologize for any inconveneince you may have encountered at our establishment. We pride ourselves in running an honest business and strive to provide all of our guests with a fun and first class experience. It is our general practice to return all phone calls promptly and to resolve any erroneous charges in a swift fashion. In your particular case your card was indeed accidentally swiped more than it should have been but the erroneous charges were immediately voided as the error was discovered right away. Unfortunately as is often the case online and tele-statements do not immediatley reflect a charge that has been voided from your account, typically this takes 2-3 business days. I'm sure that by now your statement reflectst he refund to your account. Again we apologize for any panic this may have caused. I hope that at some point we did in fact speak as we would hate you to continue to go on with a bad taste in your mouth. If we have not please call the venue and ask to speak with the General Manager, Jordan. We'd love to try and find a way to make things right. Best, Vig 27 Management 212-686-5500

Visited the bar on a Thursday night and used a Mastercard to charge a round of drinks for myself and some friends. Checked my account on Friday and discovered that my card had been swiped FIVE times - two of the charges were clearly not mine, and the remaining three were duplicates of the one legitimate charge. Two telephone messages were left for management and they were not returned. My bank assured me they would take care of the matter, but in the meantime, I'm out nearly $500 in what are at best negligent charges and at worst potentially FRAUDULANT charges. Pay cash or make sure you check your accounts after visiting this dump.
