NYC Nightlife

by Avi Snow

If you are looking for good parties in NYC,with a local NYC crowd

Places like: KISS&FLY, TENJUNE, 1OAK, LAVO, Riff Raff's, Gansevoort Park, SL and many more

places in the Meatpacking district

I promote a few different spots every night and always have a VIP table or a table on the dance floor.

I meet my guests outside the club and personally walk them in.

Table reservation? Bottle service? I can make a table reservations in almost every spot in the city, getting the best tables in the club and best prices.

Celebrating birthday, bachelorette party? I can get you the best deals

IMPORTANT TO KNOW!

by cheryl d

my friends are visiting from CA, and decided last Thursday to to check out the notorious greenhouse. The line was hella long, it was cold and we knew that the door is really tough, so we left :-(

The next day the concierge at their hotel gave us the contacts of this guy Erez who works for the club, and told us to give it another shot.

Erez met us outside, put us on the guest list, and before you know it we cut straight through the 30 minute line into the VIP area!!! it makes such a big difference. we had a BLAST and partied till 6am (partially because of the free drink he sent over...)! i hear he works for other places as well but i don't know if he can perform such magic there too, gotta ask him.

the best tip you'll ever get about NYC nightlife: contact erez and see what he has to offer you. his name on facebook is erez j dimant

cell: 718-249-6934

you can thank me later lol
