Knockout views of the spectacular Manhattan skyline are the draw at this frequently crowded, clubby Flatiron roof deck lounge--think Miami hot spot meets Top of the Rock. Stern bouncers lend an aura of exclusivity at the door, but up on the sleek rooftop, decorated with lush palm trees and wooden benches, you’ll find equal opportunity imbibing, live DJs and plenty of eye candy--if you have enough cash on hand: Cocktails start at $12 a pop.

Astonished..
by goldnshinez at Citysearch
by far the trendiest place in the city..had no problems getting in (me + 2) or walking out and back in (to car, to bank, to store)..plenty parkiing..
lots of hot ladies..the worst is like at least an 8..and they are all over and very friendly..nice view..would not wear a snuggy..
did see a few losers outside nagging about the fact they coud not get in for one reason or another..
- Pros: Insane view..lot of AAA ladies..friendly
- Cons: closed at 4 sharp..last call 3:30

This place looks tired.
by Robbie McCarlie at Citysearch
I dislike this place. From the waitresses who aske for your credit card when they taking order, to overpriced drinks, and an arrogant pony-tailed doorman (who, more appropriately, used to drive the elevators there)...
I really didn't like how he treated the minorities in several occasions, and unless he is Steven Greenberg's lover or something, I really don't know why he still has that job.
The clientele there has changed a lot, so the place now looks tired.
- Pros: Under a different owner it could be a nice spot
- Cons: Not a place for the mass gathering (exit via elevators)
