Food was disgusting. Turn up the heat

by Rich81

Food was disgusting. Turn up the heat in your deep fryer and clean out your soft drink lines. 3/5 ppl in our party had the squirts after.

Horrible, awful, horrendous...and LAME!

by zeffer555

One of the worst nights of my life was spent at The Nexus Lounge. It is so awful that I actually realized if I had a baseball bat I would come into this establishment and deliver a much needed beat down. Once the police got there...they would take a look at the place and give me a medal. A horrible, horrible, horrible place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• Pros: Nice lighting.
• Cons: The staff and management belong in a medieval dungeon!

there are so many fun places to go -- why go there?

by bserra

we just got back from a friend's 30th b-day party and can't stop talking about nexus and how much it sucked. bottom line - it's a wannabe trendy night club in the basement of an irish bar. there is an actual velvet rope, then you go downstairs, past the "mandatory coat check" (they pulled members of our party out from the basement to make them check their coats - for a fee). staff was rude and music was predictable. we left at midnight. will never go back. it may be easy for the host - according to earlier reviews -i have no idea - what i do know is that almost every person from our party tonight had a complaint about how sh*tty the bar treated them. even the b-day girl was rolling her eyes.

• Pros: it's a bar
• Cons: if i could rate zero stars i would

Worst Doorman EVER.

by av550

I have been to this place many, many times (my friends are regulars) and always thought it was fine until this past weekend. After letting all of my friends into the bar, the bouncer looked at my driver's license, deemed it was fake, and said he was confiscating it. I am 26 years old, I protested, and he treated me like I was a lying criminal. After threatening to call the police, he finally got his manager over who finally let me in the bar (after ten minutes of arguing to get the ID back). Rather than apologizing, the doorman gave me dirty looks and acted like he did me a favor.

In the five years that I have been legal, I have never had my ID questioned. I have worked as a bartender in Manhattan for four years and have never seen such poor bar management/security EVER. The door man should be fired, he had no clue what he was doing and was on a total a power trip. I would have left in a heartbeat had my friend not been having his birthday there. I will not be back.

• Pros: Good bartenders
• Cons: AWFUL security. Poor management skills.

This place is AWESOME!!!!

by Olivergoeswild

Whoever wrote a bad thing about this place is crazy. The only downfall is that the door is kinda strict. I had an amazing time here. The place filled up early and i was worried for my guests. You know how it is, friends come late, but these guys hooked it up. the door was slow, but all my guests got in...and the place wasn't too crazy. the atmosphere was relaxed, but super fun, and exciting!!! i really ended up having a blast. the dj's are great...and i am definitely booking my birthday party here!

• Pros: music, strong drinks and cute guys
• Cons: coat check slow

THIS PLACE SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN

by biscuits23

Once I went there on a whim and I saw 2 Rodents run across the floor and never wanted to return...Then I was there last night b/c of a bday party and when I went to go in the bouncer tried to say I was using a fake ID...I am 29 years old, why would I use a fake? Then he got in my face and threatned me, so I called the cops and he gave me my ID back...Then he grabbed my friend for no reason and threw him in the street into oncoming cars...This guy should be put in jail and this place should be shut down. So if you want be threatned at the door by an African American with Gold Teeth for no apparent reason, then by all means go, but I say stay away and let this place die b/c it is doing nothing for the NYC community.

• Pros: NONE
• Cons: Everything

Great music and fun people!

by cit1_girl

I planned a birthday party for my friend at Nexus lounge. It was easy and hassle free. The music and the crowd is great. DJ is really good at mixing good dancing music. What i like about Nexus is that it is classy with no velvet rope. I did not have to buy bottle service to reserve a table. Unlike what the other reviewers wrote, the place is actually very clean and the dancing is fantastic! i would definitely come back.

one stop shop

by tsilverman

I'll pay tribute to this aptly-named New York watering hole, where I had a rollicking good time a few weeks ago. It seemed vaguely Celtic-themed so we gravitated toward it, only to find that its magnetic pull was so strong that we were there until close. Great mix of music, people and bartenders are extra cool.
